4-1 Shifting Input Values
4-1-1 Shifting Inputs
The input shift matched to the sensor currently selected in the “input type”
parameter is displayed.
• A 2-point shift is applied for infrared temperature sensors. A 2-point shift
can also be used if the “input shift type” parameter (advanced function
setting level) is set to INS2 for a thermocouple or platinum resistance
thermometer.
• There is no shift for analog inputs. Use scaling for fine adjustments.
One-point shift
• With a 1-point shift, the value set for the “temperature input shift” parame-
ter (adjustment level) is applied to each point in the entire temperature
input range. For example, if the input shift value is set to 1.2°C, the pro-
cess value is treated as 201.2°C after the input shift is applied when the
measured process value is 200°C.
Operating Procedure In this example, the input from a K sensor is shifted by 1°C using a 1-point
input shift.

1. Press the O key to move from the operation level to the adjustment level.
2. Select the “temperature input shift” parameter by pressing the M key.
3. Press the U or D key to set 1.0.

4. To return to the operation level, press the O key. The process value is
1°C larger than before the shift was applied.
