Description of MODULE HUMIDIT Y
The current relative humidity value with its historical minimum and maximum values is queried via the TxPDOs Humidity Value and
Humidity History (equivalent to data objects 0x60n0 and 0x60n1).
The TxPDO Humidity Service is subdivided into the Maintenance object (maintenance information) and Humidity Status (measured value
information). In the Maintenance object (equivalent to the data object 0x60n2), dynamic ageing is displayed depending on the working
point of the sensor as a recommended number of remaining operation hours until the next recalibration. (Rem.: This value is
informative and is reset via the service interface). The Pressure Status object (equivalent to the data object 0x60n3) provides
information about the validity status of the measured value. During normal operation, this register switches between 0 and 1 for each
measured value determined. In case of over/underflow of measuring range or error detection, the corresponding code number is
displayed (see table).
The RxPDO Noise Reduction (equivalent to the data object 0x70n0) uses the definition of the Middle Value and associated Tolerance
Band to enable a smooth display of the measured value in the specified tolerance band. This function is switched on by means of
Enable. If the measured value is within the tolerance band, the middle value is used as an output value.
The configuration object Humidity Display ( 0x80n0 ) sets the display behaviour of the bar graph and LCD. In this case, the value range
of the bar graph can be defined using the start point Bar Graph Minimum Value and the end point Bar Graph Maximum Value, and its
colour (standard white) edited. Refer to the bar graph module for the colours Level OK, Level WARN and Level ERR. If it is not
available, green, yellow and red are used as specified colours. A system-specific display text (7 characters) for the lower line can
also be specified.
The Measurement Configuration ( 0x80n1 ) object defines the setting for recording the measured value. The sample interval, the filter
midpoints and the time interval for the historical data are specified here. Depending on the measurement requirement, data filtering
can be set very precisely. The settling time is derived by multiplying the sample time with the number of filter points. The viewing
period for recording the minimum/maximum value and an optional offset configuration for the measured value correction can be defined
here.
The Humidity Description ( 0x90n0 ) object contains the module description in text form, the Humidity Unit (0x90n1 ) object displays
the measurand unit and the Humidity Configuration ( 0x90n2 ) object provides information about the set measurement configurations
in the corresponding time units.
