Operating Parameters
Operating Parameters
Operating parameters allow you to modify the operating
characteristics of your display unit and define the evaluation of
the encoder signals. Operating parameters that can be
changed by the user are called user parameters, and can be
accessed with the MOD key and the dialog PARAMETER
(user parameters are identified as such in the parameter list).
The full range of parameters can only be accessed through
CODE NUMBER.
Operating parameters are designated by the letter P and a
number. Example: P11. The parameter designation is shown
in the input field as you press the arrow keys to select a
parameter. The parameter setting is displayed in the message
field.
Some operating parameters have separate values for each
axis. Such parameters have an additional index number from
1 to 3 (ND 920: 1 to 2).
Example P12.1 scaling factor, X axis
P12.2 scaling factor, Y axis
P12.3 scaling factor, Z axis (ND960/NDP960 only)
Operating parameters P60 and P61 (definition of the switching
ranges) have an index from 0 to 7.
The operating parameters are preset before the unit leaves
the factory. These factory settings are indicated in the
parameter list in boldface type.
Entering and changing operating parameters
To access the operating parameters
➤ Press the MOD key
➤ Confirm with ENT to access the user parameters, or select
the dialog for entering the code number (95148) with the
arrow down key to be able to change all operating
parameters.
To page through the operating parameters
➤ Page forwards by pressing the arrow down key.
➤ Page backwards by pressing the arrow up key.
➤ Go directly to an operating parameter by pressing GOTO,
keying in the parameter number and then pressing ENT.
To change parameter settings
➤ Press the minus key or enter the value and confirm
with the ENT key.
To correct an entry
➤ Press CL. This restores the old value.
To leave the operating parameters
➤ Press MOD again.
