- will decrease the numerical value or choose the previous parameter
- will save the chosen value and proceed to the next menu
When configuration is completed, the display will return to the default state 1.0. Pressing and holding 3 will return to the previous menu or return to the default state (1.0) without saving the changed values or parameters.
If no key is activated for 1 minute, the display will return to the default state (1.0) without saving the changed values or parameters.
For device-specific programming menus, please refer to the user manual for each device, e.g. PR 4116.
4512 functions
The PR 4512 gives access to a number of functions which can be reached by
answering “Yes” to the menu point “ADV.SET” (see “4512 settings – routing
diagram” on page 10).
Two factor authentication
When pairing the PPS device with PR 4512, a physical acknowledgement on the
4512 unit is required to complete pairing (activation of the 3 button). Two
factor authentication is disabled by default.
Log functionality
By selecting the “LOG.INT” menu item, it is possible to set the log interval
in seconds. Valid selections are 1…9999 s. You can also choose to reset the
stored log in the menu item “LOG. DEL”. The logging function exits
automatically, if the PR 4512 is detached. If the PR 4512 is placed back on
the same device, the logging will continue. In the event of a power outage,
logging will resume when power is restored.
Error Scenarios and help texts
Memory
The memory available for data logging is 100 MB. When the memory is full, the
oldest data will be overwritten.
Backup of device configuration
If you want to back-up the 4000/9000 product configuration, remember to save
the configuration in the PR 4512 under the menu point “MEM” in the “ADV.SET”
menu. The saved configuration can later be imported into PReset (see “Import
