Set Output Clipping and Error Limit

Use the AOVER command to define the behavior of the analog outputs

when the measured value is outside the scaled output range.

AOVER [channel clip% valid%]<cr>

where
channel = Analog output channel, 1 or 2.

clip%

= Output margin (%) at which the output is clipped.

Range 0 ... 20, default is 0.

valid% = Output margin (%) at which the output of the channel

goes into the error state. Range 0 ... 20, default is 5.

The error state is defined using the AMODE command,

see section Set Analog Output Mode on page 47.

NOTE

These settings have no effect on the measurements shown on the display.

The display will always show the currently measured values, even

outside the scaled output range, as long as the measurement is still

functioning.

For example, first check the analog output settings using ASEL,

AMODE, and AOVER commands:

>pass 9000

>asel

Aout 1 quantity : RH (0.00 ... 100.00 %)

Aout 2 quantity : T (-5.00 ... 55.00 'C)

>amode

Aout 1 range ( V) : 1.00 ... 5.00 (error: 6.00)

Aout 2 range ( V) : 1.00 ... 5.00 (error: 6.00)

>aover

Aout 1 clipping : 0.00 %

Aout 1 error limit : 5.00 %

Aout 2 clipping : 0.00 %

Aout 2 error limit : 5.00 %

The parameter for channel 2 is T, with standard output range 1 ... 5 V and

scaling -5 ... 55 °C. Error state is 6 V, which is set when the measured

value is 5% outside the scaled output range.

Now give the following AOVER command:

>aover 2 10.0 20.0

Aout 2 clipping : 10.00 %

Aout 2 error limit : 20.00 %
