Teach-in of an analogue characteristic or a window with two switching points NCC/NOC and rising/falling analogue characteristic curve can also be set via pin 5. The analogue sensor checks the load connected to the output and then automatically switch to 4–20 mA current output or 0–10 V voltage output to ensure maximum ease of handling. The Ics-25/DDD is equipped with three pnp switched outputs which are set with the help of the Link-Control adapter LCA-2. In addition to this “offline” programming, all Ics sensors can also be parameterised on the PC with the LCA-2 and the Link-Control software ....
