10.3 Output configuration
10.3.1 Switching output
OUTx changes its switching status if it is above or below the set switching limits. Hysteresis or window function can be selected.

Fig. 7: Hysteresis function
SP: Set point
rP: Reset point
HY: Hysteresis
Hno: Hysteresis function NO (normally open)
Hnc: Hysteresis function NC (normally closed)
t: Time

When the hysteresis function is set, the switch point [SP] and the reset point [rP] are defined. [rP] must have a lower value than [SP]. If only the switch point is changed, the reset point is changed automatically; the difference remains constant.

Fig. 8: Window function
FH: Upper limit value
FL: Lower limit value
HY: Hysteresis
FE: Window
Fno: Window function NO (normally open)
Fnc: Window function NC (normally closed)
t: Time

When set to the window function, the upper limit value [FH] and the lower limit value [FL] are defined. [FH] and [FL] have a fixed hysteresis of 0.25 % of the final value of the measuring range (MEW). This keeps the switching status of the output stable if the flow varies slightly.
10.3.1.1 Parameter setting via the device keys: Switching signal
√ The standard unit of measurement is selected: [EF] > [CFG] > [uni]
√ Only for OUT2: The process value is selected: [EF] > [CFG] > [SEL2].

▶ Select [FLx] and set the lower limit of the window.
10.3.2 Frequency signal
The device provides a frequency signal proportional to the process value.
The frequency signal is scalable:
- [FrPx] defines the frequency signal in Hz that is provided when the upper measured value is reached.
The measuring range is scalable:
• [FSPx] defines the lower measured value from which a frequency signal is provided.
- [FEPx] defines the upper measured value at which the output signal has the frequency set under [FrPx].
[FSPx] is only available for temperature measurement. Minimum difference between [FSPx] and [FEPx] = 20 % of the final value of the measuring range.
If the measured value is outside the measuring range or in the event of an internal error, the frequency signal indicated in the following figure is provided.
For measured values outside the display range or in case of a fault, messages are displayed (UL, OL, Err).
Frequency signal for flow:

10.4.3 Output polarity of the switching outputs
The output polarity is set via the parameter [P-n].
• [PnP]: The switching output is positive switching.
• [nPn]: The switching output is negative switching.
10.4.4 Damping
The set damping constant stabilises the output signals. Abrupt changes in the physical process values are smoothed out.
This concerns the outputs, the display and the process value transmission via the IO-Link interface.
The damping constant is added to the response time of the sensor ( → Technical data).
The UL and OL signals are defined under consideration of the damping time.

Measured value damping only has an effect on the process value pressure.
- [dAP] = damping time for switching signal, display and IO-Link signal (63% rise time)
10.4.5 Error behaviour of the outputs
The response of the OUTx output in case of a fault can be set via the parameter [FOUx]. Depending on the selected output function, the following signals are provided in case of a fault:
- Switching signal:
- On: The output switches ON in case of a fault.
– OFF: The output switches OFF in case of a fault. - OU: The output switches irrespective of the fault as defined with the parameters.
• Frequency signal:
- On: The frequency signal goes to 130% of [FrPx].
– OFF: The frequency signal goes to 0 Hz.
– OU: The frequency signal still corresponds to the measured value.
10.4.6 Process value for OUT2
The process value to be output via OUT2 can be selected using the parameter [SEL2].

No selection is possible for the OUT1 output. OUT1 is only for monitoring flow.
Selectable values:
- • [TEMP]: Temperature
▶ Select the process value before configuring further parameters for OUT2.
10.5 Display settings
The presentation in the display can be adjusted via various parameters. The parameters described below are set as follows:

- 0° (not rotated)
• 90°
• 180°
• 270°
10.5.4 Display brightness
The display brightness can be set via the parameter [diS. B].
Selectable values:
• 25%
- 50%
- 75%
• 100%
- OFF: energy-saving mode. the display is switched off in the operating mode.
Display activation by pressing any key. After 30 s of inactivity, the display is switched off again.

In case of warnings or error messages and in case of optical localisation, the display will come back on even with the setting [OFF].
10.5.5 Display colour setting
The font colour in the display can be set via the parameter [coL.x].
• [coL. F]: font colour for flow
• [coL. T]: font colour for temperature
The colour can be defined individually for each process value using the following parameter settings.
Permanent colour selection

Fig. 11: Example: [coL. F] = [GrEn]; [coL. T] = [OFF]
The font colour is permanently set to one colour:
| [coL. F] = | [coL. T] = | Font colour |
| [rEd] | Red | |
| [GrEn] | Green | |
| [OFF] | White | |
Colour change depending on the limit values of the switching output

Fig. 12: Example: [coL. F] = [r1ou]; [coL. T] = [G2ou]
If the measured value* is above the switch point [SPx] or within the limits of [FLx]... [FHx], the following applies depending on the parameter selection:
| [coL. F] = | [coL. T] = | Font colour |
| [r1ou] | [r2ou] | Red |
| [G1ou] | [G2ou] | Green |

Setting of the limit values [SPx], [FLx], [FHx]: Switching output ( → 18).
Colour change depending on freely definable limit values

If the measured value* is within the limits of [cFL.x]... [cFH.x], the following applies depending on the parameter selection:
| [coL. F] = | [coL. T] = | Font colour |
| [r-cF] | Red | |
| [G-cF] | Green | |
Fig. 13: Example: [coL. F] = [r-cF]; [coL. T] = [G-cF]
The limit values of the window range can be freely selected within the measuring range and are independent of the output function:
- Flow: [cFL. F] = lower limit value; [cFH. F] = upper limit value
• Temperature: [cFL. T] = lower limit value; [cFH. T] = upper limit value

The [cFL.x] and [cFH.x] parameters will only appear in the menu if the [r-cF] or [G-cF] setting has been selected for [coL.x].
10.6 Diagnosis
10.6.1 Memory
The unit stores the maximum and minimum measured process values.
The current value can be read from the unit's display or via the IO-Link interface.
Selectable values:
