Parameter: Text
Format: Character
Value:
mA interface #1
Figure 2.4.2.2: Example to read the description of AO1. The text is “mA interface #1”. Accordingly,
AO1 is physically configured as a 4-20 mA current output.
Command: Current interface text

Parameter: Text
Format: Character
Value:
mA interface #2
Figure 2.4.2.3: Example to read the description of AO2. The text is “mA interface #2”. Accordingly,
AO2 is physically configured as a 4-20 mA current output.
Attention:
pH ARC Sensors do not have an ECS (in contrast to VISIFERM DO)!
Data structure: register address offset between AO1 and AO2 is always 128.
2.4.4 Selection of an Analog Interface Mode
The analog interface mode of AO1 / AO2 is selected by programming the analog interface mode in
register 4360 / 4488.
