Recorder output gas
Here one gas from the four gases is defined which will be output as the analog signal
through channel 1.
Selecting one of the numbers 1 … 4 outputs the corresponding gas 1 … 4 on the display
as the analog signal.
Channel 2 (pin 14 of the I/O port) indicates the gas number by way of a voltage, i.e. a
voltage between 1 … 4 V will be present accordingly.
When selecting “auto” the leak rate which has the highest value with reference to the
corresponding trigger level is output as the analog signal. Correspondingly the voltage in
channel 2 will differ accordingly.
In the modes "ERROR”, "NOT READY TO MEASURE” and "SLEEP” a voltage of U = 10 V will
be output through channels 1 and 2.
Default setting: auto

Setup PLC
In the “Setup PLC” submenu you can define the PLC Inputs and PLC outputs.
2.2.2.1
Define PLC Inputs
In the “Define PLC Inputs” submenu the user can define which pin on the I/O port (suitable
for PLC input) represents which command. The default setting is as follows:
To change these settings select the appropriate pin with the UP and DOWN arrows on the
left side of the display and afterwards select the desired command from the list of
commands with the UP and DOWN buttons on the right side of the display. Press OK to
