Parameters for ES930: Sensor Supply Tab

Up to four sensors that can be switched to the ES930 have an individual sensor supply voltage which can be set separately in the Sensor Supply tab.

Note

Some parameters in this tab are underlaid orange. These operating parameters are applied to the device (and stored persistently) upon measurement start or chain initialization. Moreover, you can apply them explicitly by selecting Apply Operating Parameters from the context menu.

The following list shows the parameters in the Sensor Supply tab of the ES930:

Shows a consecutive number for each entry in the hardware configuration table.

You cannot edit this field.

Shows the name of the channel.

You cannot edit this field.

Defines how the output voltages can be selected:

  • predefined

    You can choose between different preset supply voltages provided to the sensor connected to this channel.

  • user defined

    The output voltages you define are used. If you enter output voltages which are below or above the minimum or maximum value respectively, the software automatically replaces your entry by the closest possible value.

Defines the output voltage that supplies connected sensors.

Note

This tab displays both the current values in the configuration program and the values in the connected device itself. If you want to transfer the value set in the configuration program to the device before measurement start or chain initialization, you must explicitly apply it by selecting Apply Operating Parameters from the context menu.

This parameter allows you to determine when the voltage shall be provided to the connected sensors.

  • On Start of Measurement

    The output voltage is supplied on measurement start.

  • On Power On

    The output voltage is supplied on power on of the device.

    Note

    This setting is highly recommended if you use the device for rapid prototyping use cases to ensure a proper power supply to the sensor.
