4 Function
• The unit detects the flow rate according to the principle of differential pressure by means of a
permanent magnet and a measuring cell.
• As additional process value the unit detects the medium temperature.
• The unit can be operated in SIO mode (standard input-output ) or in IO-Link mode.
• The unit displays the current process values.
• The unit generates two output signals according to the parameter setting.
4.1 Output OUT1 selection options
• Switching signal flow
• Switching signal temperature
• Frequency signal flow
• Frequency signal temperature
• IO-Link
4.2 Output OUT2 selection options
• Switching signal flow
• Switching signal temperature
• Analogue signal flow
• Analogue signal temperature
4.3 Switching output
OUTx changes its switching status if it is above or below the set switching limits. Hysteresis or window
function can be selected.

HY: Hysteresis
Hno: Hysteresis function NO (normally open)
Hnc: Hysteresis function NC (normally closed)
When the hysteresis function is set, the set point [SP] and the reset point [rP] are defined. The
rP value must be lower than the SP value. The distance between SP and rP is at least 0.6 % of
the final value of the measuring range (= hysteresis). If only the set point is changed, the reset
point is changed automatically; the difference remains constant.

HY: Hysteresis

Fno: Window function NO (normally open)

When set to the window function the upper limit value [FH] and the lower limit value [FL] are
defined. The distance between FH and FL is at least 0.6 % of the final value of the measuring
range. FH and FL have a fixed hysteresis of 0.25% of the final value of the measuring range.
This helps keep the switching status of the output stable if the flow rate varies slightly.
The switching signal in case of a fault can be set via the parameter [FOU].
4.4 Analogue output
The unit provides an analogue signal of 4…20mA proportional to the process value.
If the measured value is outside the measuring range or in the event of an internal error, the current
signal indicated in the following figure is provided.
For measured values outside the display range or in case of a fault, messages are displayed (UL, OL,
Err).
The analogue signal in case of a fault can be set via the parameter [FOU].

4.5 Frequency output
The unit provides a frequency signal proportional to the process value.
The frequency signal is scalable:
• [FrPx] defines the frequency signal in Hz that is provided when the upper measured value (MEW or
FEPx) is reached.
The measuring range is scalable:
• [FSPx] defines the lower measured value from which a frequency signal is provided.
– FSPx is only available for temperature measurement.
• [FEPx] defines the upper measured value at which the output signal has the frequency set under
FrPx.
Minimum distance between FSPx and FEPx:
6.5 % of the final value of the measuring range (flow rate measurement).
20 % of the final value of the measuring range (temperature measurement).
If the measured value is outside the measuring range or in the event of an internal error, the frequency
signal indicated in the following figure is provided.
For measured values outside the display range or in case of a fault, messages are displayed (UL, OL,
Err).
The frequency signal in case of a fault can be set via the parameter [FOU].

4.6 Display colour setting
The colour of the characters in the display can be set via the parameter [coLr]. With the set
parameters rED (red) and GrEn (green), the display is permanently set to one colour. If the
parameters rxou and Gxou are set, the colour of the characters changes depending on the process
value:
OUT1 OUT2 Colour change to…
Parameter setting r1ou r2ou Red
G1ou G2ou Green
When the hysteresis function is set, the colour changes if the process value is above the set point:

4.7 IO-Link
IO-Link is an internationally standardised IO technology (IEC 61131-9) for communicating with
sensors and actuators.
General information about IO-Link can be found at io-link.ifm.
IO Device Description (IODD) with all parameters and process data of the unit can be found at
documentation.ifm.com.
In the factory setting the unit is in SIO mode (standard input-output). When connected to an IO-Link
master, the unit automatically switches to IO-Link mode.
IO-Link offers the following advantages:
• Noise-immune transmission of all process values.
• Parameter setting during operation or point-to-point at the desk.
• Detection of connected units.
• Freely definable parameters to identify the units in the plant.
• Additional parameter and diagnostic functions (events) compared to the SIO mode.
• Data storage: Automatic transfer of parameters when a unit is replaced.
• Logging of parameter sets, process values and events.

9 Set-up
After power on and expiry of the power-on delay time, the unit is in the normal operating mode. It
carries out its measurement and evaluation functions and generates output signals according to the
set parameters.
During the power-on delay time the outputs are switched as programmed:
• OFF with normally open function (Hno / Fno)
• OFF with normally closed function (Hnc / Fnc)
• OFF for frequency output (FRQ)
• 0 mA for current output (I)
When an IO-Link master is connected, the unit automatically switches from SIO mode (standard
input-output) to IO-Link mode.
