Programming connector on transducer
The programming connector on the transducer is connected
by the programming cable PRKAB 560 to the RS-232 interface
on the PC. The electrical insulation between the two is
provided by the programming cable.

5.2 Programming the transducer
The transducers SINEAX M 563 have an integrated
RS 232 C interface (SCI).
The existing programmation can be matched conveniently to
a changed situation and stored via the "Configuration software
for M 560" (Order number 146 557).
For this purpose, the RS 232 output of the transducer must
be connected to a PC via the RS 232 C (SCI) programming
cable (Order number 142 000) and the transducer must be
supplied with power supply.
The configuration software has an easy-to-operate, clear
menu structure which allows for the following functions to be
performed:
• Reading and displaying the programmed configuration of
the transducer
• Clear presentation of the input and output parameters
• Transmission of changed programmation data to the
transducer and for archiving of a file
• Protection against unauthorized change of the pro-
grammation by entry of a password
• Configuration of all the usual methods of connection
(types of power system)

• Selection possible for frequency measurement via voltage
or current
• Possibility to reset the slave pointer of the output quantity
involved
• Parameter setting of outputs A to C (input of measured
quantity, upper limits, limitation of upper limits and
response time per output, possible up to max. 30 s)
• Graphics display of the set system behaviour of each
output

Provision is also made for the following ancillary functions:
• Displaying, recording and evaluation of measurements on
a PC
• The simulation of the outputs for test purposes
• Printing of nameplates
6. Reconfiguring the analogue outputs
The alternative configurations for the analogue outputs can
be seen from Table 1.
Table 1:
Action
Change the current full-
scale value from, for
example, 20 mA to 10 mA
(a hardware setting always
has to be made when
changing from a lower to
a higher value)

Procedure
Reconfigure the software,
but do not change the
hardware setting.
Accuracy is reduced.
