The units are not to be opened by unauthorised personnel. If opened anyway, the
warranty will be lost.
Safety issues
Installing the unit implies work with dangerous currents and voltages. Therefore, the installation
should only be carried out by authorised personnel who understand the risks involved in working
with live electrical equipment.
Be aware of the hazardous live currents and voltages. Do not touch any AC
measurement inputs as this could lead to injury or death.
Definitions
Throughout this document, a number of notes and warnings will be presented. To ensure that
these are noticed, they will be highlighted in order to separate them from the general text.
Notes
The notes provide general information which will be helpful for the reader to
bear in mind.

0-40V DC
0V DC: 0 bit
40V DC: 925 bit
Linearity between the unscaled value and the scaled value yields.
Pt100
Linearity between the unscaled value and the input resistance yields according to the following
equation:
Ω = (x + 509) * 100/771
x: Unscaled value.
Ω: PT resistance value.
Pt1000
Linearity between the unscaled value and the input resistance yields according to the following
equation:
Ω = (x + 519) * 10/79
x: Unscaled value.
Ω: PT resistance value.
VDO
Linearity between the unscaled value and the input resistance yields according to the following
equations:
x: Unscaled value.
Ω: VDO resistance value.
If maximum resistance on the sensor is above 90.0Ω and less than or equal to 190.0 Ω:

When using Control register table write (10h), remember to write a value
between 0.6...1 to address 1 (PF regulator setpoint), otherwise the write
command will be ignored.

Parameter addresses
Chanel and Modbus offset address numbers can be found in the utility software parameter list
for the unit in question.
Channel Modbus offset address
It is not possible to write to Modbus offset address 0. These values are used
for DEIF internal version control.
When using Modbus, it is not possible to write the value 50.5, this must be 505.
Also when read via Modbus, this value will be listed as 505, so an external
calculation is necessary to have the value displayed as 50.5 Hz.

Examples 1
Changes nominal frequency 1 (parameter 6001), from 50 to 60 Hz.
To calculate the value to be sent, it is necessary to find the value unit used for the specific
channel:
Value used is without any comma or dots, so the used value needs to be
multiplied by 10.
