LMC Point sensors: Programming and device configuration

Device configuration

The video below guides you through the programming steps for the LMC sensors. More details can be found in the Operating Manual on the datasheet page for the specific product.

Available parameters for LMC sensors
Please refer to the operating instructions for more details on these parameters.

Parameter Description
SPx / rPx Set and reset points for outputs 1 and 2 in % of maximum process value
  • Reference:  Air = 0%, tap water = 100%
  • Minimum hysteresis = 2%
  • Factory settings
    • Water based media:  [SPx] = 70%, [rPx] = 62%
    • Oil, powder media:  [SPx] = 8%, [rPx] = 5%
OUx Output function for outputs 1 and 2
