Warning GENERAL This device is designed for connection to hazardous electric voltages. Ignoring this warning can result in severe personal injury or mechanical damage. To avoid the risk of electric shock and fire, the safety instructions of this guide must be observed and the guidelines followed. The specifications must not be exceeded, and the device must only be applied as described in the following. Prior to the commissioning of the device, this installation guide must be examined carefully.
Safety instructions Definitions Hazardous voltages have been defined as the ranges: 75 to 1500 Volt DC, and 50 to 1000 Volt AC. Technicians are qualified persons educated or trained to mount, operate, and also trouble-shoot technically correct and in accordance with safety regulations. Operators, being familiar with the contents of this manual, adjust and operate the knobs or potentiometers during normal operation.
How to demount system 4000 Picture 1: The device is detached from the DIN rail by moving the bottom lock down. When front LED flashes red or 4511/4501 display shows AO.ER The 4179 is designed with a high safety level. Therefore, the device continuously measures the output current. If "S4-20" is selected during configuration, and output current drops to 0 mA, the 4511/4501 display will indicate "AO.ER" and the front LED will turn red. (A 0 mA output can be caused by an open output loop).

Configurable input error indication and input limits Configurable input error detection To increase system safety and integrity, users can program a high and low input error detection level. Input signals outside the selected error indication levels will cause the output of the device to go to the programmed error state. The error is indicated in display line 1 as IN.ER and at the same time the backlight flashes.

Configuration / operating the function keys Documentation for routing diagram. In general When configuring the 4179, you will be guided through all parameters and you can choose the settings which fit the application. For each menu there is a scrolling help text which is automatically shown in line 3 on the display.
Language (LANG): In the menu ”LANG” you can choose between 7 different language versions of help texts that will appear in the menu. You can choose between UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, SE and DK. Output function (OFUN): Here the output characteristics can be set to either Direct (DIR) or Inverted (INV) function. Output type and range are set in the normal programming menu. If the selected output range is starting at zero, V-curved output function (VFUN) can also be selected.
