5.1.4 Operation modes
The operation modes of the analog input characteristic enable application-related scal-
in
g
as a supplement to the characteristic points stated. One of the four linear types o
f
characteristic is selected for adaptation of the si
g
nal for the analo
g
input si
g
nal via the
parameter
Operation mode 562.
If the characteristic points are not suited for the type of characteristic selected, the
characteristic points are corrected internally.
Operation mode Function
1 - bipolar The analog input signal is mapped onto the reference
figure according to the characteristic points (X1/Y1)
and (X2/Y2).
11 - unipolar With a negative parameter value of the characteristic
points X1 or X2, they are mapped to the reference
value zero.
21 - unipolar
2…10 V / 4…20 mA
If the characteristic points X1 or X2 have been set
with a negative parameter figure or smaller than 0%,
the input characteristic is mapped to the reference
value 20%.
101 - bipolar absolute value Negative parameter values of the characteristic points
Y1 or Y2 are mapped as a positive reference value in
the characteristic.
