Working with the Devices/ Parameters Window 18

Note: The maximum value storage coincides with adjustments made to the response time.
Therefore:

clear time the adjusted response time is useless
clear times must be at least 3 times longer than the response time
only maxima with full maximum value can be recorded, which appear at least 3
times longer than the response time.

max / min
When entering a reset time interval other than 0, it must also be determined with max or min if
the maximum or minimum value storage will be activated.

For more information on these settings, refer to the documentation that came with your
pyrometer.

3.2.11 Temperature display in °C or °F

You can choose whether the temperature scale should be displayed in °C (Celsius) or °F (Fahrenheit).

3.2.12 Address

When connecting several pyrometers with RS485 to one serial interface, it is necessary for each
instrument to have its own device address for communication purposes. First it is necessary to
connect only one instrument at a time, to give it a unique address. After that, all instruments can be
connected together.

Attention: Only for customer’s own communication program (not for InfraWin)
Parameters can be simultaneously changed on all pyrometers, by using the
Global Address 98. Using Global Address 98 allows you to program all pyrometers at the
same time, regardless of the addresses that have already been assigned to each device.
If the address of a pyrometer is unknown, it is possible to communicate with it using the
Global Address 99. However, make sure you only have the one pyrometer connected to
the interface when using Global Address 99.

3.2.13 Baud Rate

The Baud Rate drop down menu allows you to choose a different transmission rate for your
connection. Settings for Baud Rate are 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200.

3.2.14 Analog Output

The analog output has to be selected according to the signal input of the connected instrument
(controller, PLC, etc.). For example, if your device is set at 4 to 20 mA, the analog output gives
3.9 mA for temperatures below the lower range limit.

3.2.15 Current Input (only for series 6000 display and controller units)

The 6000 instruments are displays or controllers which get an analog current signal from the
pyrometer, so they have an analog current input. This input has to be configured to 0 to 20 mA or
4 to 20 mA, and the 6000 has to know the beginning and end temperatures corresponding to these
current values.

3.2.16 Ambient Temperature Compensation

The ambient temperature compensation setting should be used when standard (lab) conditions are
not present. The pyrometer receives a radiation intensity from an object and this intensity consists
