from individual devices is not permitted!.
Supply via the module
Where the total current consumption of the aligned modules
does not exceed 400 mA, the power can be supplied directly
at the connection terminal blocks of the module.
We recommend connecting a 630 mA fuse (normal-blow or
slow-blow) upstream.
Supply via a power terminal block
The MINI MCR-2-PTB power terminal block (Order No.
2902066) or the MINI MCR-2-PTB-PT power terminal block
(Order No. 2902067) of the same shape is used to supply
the supply voltage to the DIN rail connector.
We recommend connecting a 4 A fuse upstream.

Fault monitoring FM
In addition to module and power supply failures, known
faults in the signal input of the module are reported via the
DIN rail connector to the form-matched MINI MCR-2-FM-RC
(order number 2904504) or MINI MCR-2-FM-RC-PT (order
number 2904508) fault monitoring module. The module
reports the error centrally via an N/C contact.
A fault monitoring module is only required once in a group.
There is no need for individual evaluation of up to 115
connected Mini Analog Pro signal conditioners.
For the behavior of the fault monitoring contact for the
different DIP switch configurations, please refer to the
corresponding table.

Disconnect position
Marking
Current measurement
The device allows current measurement without disconnection of
the conductors by means of integrated test disconnect terminals.
Test sockets which support current measurement are
marked TI+ or TI-.
Standard UCT-EM... or UC-EMLP tags are available for
marking the devices and can be printed as per customer
requirements. In addition, the covers provide enough space for
the use of freely chosen sticky labels such as SK 5.0 WH:REEL
without concealing the LED diagnostic indicators.
For the current measurement, use 2 mm probe tips of the
type Fluke TL75-1 or probe tips with a comparable tip shape.
Figure 6
Test disconnect terminal block
Furthermore, individual circuits can be specifically
disconnected, e.g. for commissioning.
You can set the isolating position by turning the integrated
spindle screw through 180°. The isolating position is

Function description
8.1
Notes on using thermocouples
A
Thermocouples consist of two conductors made from
different metals with different thermoelectric properties
which are connected together on one side and are exposed
to a temperature gradient and, therefore, convert heat flow
to electrical voltage. Electrical voltage is measured at both
thermocouple connections.
8.1.1
Cold junction compensation
In a thermocouple, however, voltage will not only be
generated at the contact point of the connected conductors,
but also at both connection points of the measuring
transducer, as each of these points together with the
connected thermocouple cable will form another
thermocouple.
When considering the connection point temperature, this is
referred to as cold junction compensation.
Cold junction compensation can also be implemented with a
separate temperature measurement at the connection points.
Interface modules are available for the connection of
thermocouples, in which cold junction compensation is already
integrated. Interface modules of this type are also signal
transformers with cable connections to the evaluation unit.
Thermocouples are often referred to with the abbreviation TC.
Thermocouples are suitable for high
temperatures or large temperature ranges.
Resistance thermometers are more suitable
for temperatures up to a maximum of 800°C.

In order to be able to calculate the absolute measurement
point temperature value from this voltage difference, and
thus also the temperature difference, the temperature of the
connection points must be the same and known.
To this end, the connection points are artificially maintained
at a known temperature: for laboratory measurements,
for example, at 0°C using ice water, in industrial applications
with thermostatically controlled heating and cooling.

8.2
Analog switching output
If you configure the device using one of the software or app
solutions, this additional function is available. It allows you to
implement a threshold value switch without having to
integrate an extra switching output or use a separate
threshold value switch.
The analog output can be used as an analog switching
output. A low level or high level is signaled at the analog
output. The low level or high level can be freely adjusted
within the analog output range of 0 mA ... 20 mA or
0 V ... 10 V. The minimum distance between the two levels
must be 1 mA or 0.5 V. The high level must be greater than
the low level.
8.4
Limiting behavior of the analog output
In some applications it is important that the standard signal
at the output remains within its limits. In the case of a
4 mA 20 mA signal, for example, this means that the
signal does not drop below 4 mA or exceed 20 mA.
You can set this behavior under “Error signaling > Analog
output > Limitation”. The best way to do this is via the
software or app solutions.
If you configure the device via the DIP switches, you must
select the combination with which the error signaling outputs
the measuring range starting value as the value for
underrange and the measuring range final value as the
value for overrange.
Switching points
8.5
The switching points are set finitely and in the selected unit
(°C/°F) and relate to the measuring input.
Errors such as open circuit, short circuit, overrange,
underrange, and module errors are detected by the
modules. The errors are signaled via the analog output and/
or the fault monitoring and/or, if present, via a switching
output. At the same time, the error signaling is displayed by
means of a red LED.
The two switching points can be configured within the input
signal range as follows.

Ni
Cu 50, Cu 100
Cu 53

Input range
-200 °C ... +850 °C
-60°C ... +250°C
-180°C ... +200°C
-50°C ... +180°C
0 Ω ... 4000 Ω
Switching points must not exceed the maximum measuring
range.
Diagnostic functions and error messages
The respective error displays are removed when the error is
eliminated.
The software and app solutions allow you to freely select
and adjust all signaling variants.
If you configure the device via the DIP switches, you can
choose between fixed signaling combinations (see
configuration tables).
8.6
Simulation mode/force
Switching behavior
Function of the switching output: signal high level after the
switching point is exceeded; before this signal low level.
8.3
Monitoring
A monitoring function can be used with the software or app
solutions. This means that you can display and note down
current measured values via the software interface.
106016_en_03
During startup it must be possible to specify analog values
without a pending sensor signal from the field.
The ANALOG-CONF and FDT/DTM software solutions
allow you to simulate analog signals at the output.
You can set this behavior via “Service > Force analog
output”. It can be specified as a percentage in relation to the
set input or as an absolute value of the output signal range.
