6.4 SMART Sensors
These are the new generation sensors from HYDAC, capable of outputting several different
measured variables. Depending on the sensor type, these variables are stored for an
extended period in the unit's internal memory. Regardless of the sensor used, its parameters
can be set.
CAUTION: To connect SMART-Sensors to HMG 3000 see “Connection requirements” and
“Wiring diagrams” in each sensor user manual.
The following details are in reference to the SMART sensor HYDACLab ® HLB 1000, however
they could also be used to describe any of the other sensors.
The measured value display of SMART
sensors is shown in the screenshot at the
right (example: HLB 1000). The display
settings and measured value renderings
can be changed as described in
section 6.1.2 above. Since every SMART
sensor goes through an initialization phase
until the current measured values are
displayed, we recommend resetting the
Min and Max values after this phase has
completed.
6.4.1 Connecting SMART Sensors
To connect SMART sensors with the
HMG 3000, select the SMART Sensors
item in the Extras menu.
Then enter the connector to which the
SMART sensor is connected.
You also have the option of entering a
sensor bus address
. The default setting
is No address.
Bus addresses have to be specified when
the SMART sensor is operated in a bus
system. (This function is not described
further here).
After selecting Connect you see some
information about the connected SMART
sensor above the function bar. Click on
Continue
to access the options menu of
the SMART sensor.
Disconnect
enables you to discontinue
the connection to the SMART sensor.
