The dialogue between user and display is effected through the large 4-digit, 14-segment LED display.
Contrary to ordinary 7-segment displays a 14-segment display can make use of the entire alphabet, optimising the visualisation of letters in the menu structure and thus the user understanding.
Apart from the digital indication of input values and alarm information, 2 yellow front LEDs indicate the relay status.
The following display parameters can be configured: input type, output signal, cable compensation in connection with Pt100 sensors, relay functions such as trip amplifier, sensor and cable error detection, position reading of valves, actuators and level sensors through potentiometer input.
The input, output and voltage supply of the PReview 5714 are highly protected.
The current input is protected against excess current, the output is current-limited and the voltage supply is polarity protected.
Moreover, the display tightness of IP65 safeguards the electronics for example when cleaning.
For more extreme environments and extended display protection a splash-proof cover is available as an accessory.
These protection features and the impressive usability minimise configuration errors and optimise the application efficiency.
Naturally, the new display is backed by a 5-year product guarantee.
PReview 5714 is available from stock in 4 variants, all with 24-250 VDC/AC universal voltages.
The display can be implemented in many different applications and carry out various tasks due to its universality.
Hence, the user will become increasingly familiar with the display and the costs in connection with stock control and purchase will decrease.
Furthermore, the PReview 5714 can be used worldwide as it complies with the UL (USA), DNV (marine) as well as the strictest European standards.
Consequently, the PReview 5714 is a unique display with many features and advantages at a very competitive price.
