Abstract
A measuring transducer with a sensor for converting a detected measured value into a sensor signal. The sensor signal is processed in a signal processing device to form a measuring signal that is transmitted to a central location via a data interface. The data interface is also used as a conduit for signals to parameterize the measuring transducer. The measuring transducer includes a device that provides a simulated measuring signal that can be transmitted to the central location on request via the data interface instead of the detected measured value. Further, a function can be performed on the simulated measuring signal before it is transmitted or a sequence of simulated measuring values can be transmitted corresponding to particular operating conditions.
