5-9. Fail

A fail contact is energized when a fail situation

occurs. Fail situations are configured in section

5-10. For SOFT Fails the contact and the dis-

play on LCD are pulsating. For HARD Fails the

contact and the display on LCD are energized

continuously.

Only contact S4 is programmed as a fail-safe

contact. This means that contact S4 will be

de-energized when a fail situation occurs.

The contact reacts to Hard Fails Only

The contact reacts to Hard and Soft Fails

5-10. Simulate

The contact can be switched on/off or a

percentage of output can be simulated. On/Off

enables the user to manually switch a contact

on or off. The percentage is an analogue value

and represents the on time per period.

The Duty cycle Period time (see figure 5-4) is

used as a period for percentage simulation.

Note that the (simulated) settings of the con-

tacts become visible in measuring mode and

after HOLD has ended c.q. has been overruled.

A warning is activated in case of a simulated

output contact.
