SENSOR FOR MEASURING A MEASUREMENT VARIABLE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A SENSOR

摘要

A sensor for measuring at least one measurement variable, which has a configurable measurement variable sensor that converts the measurement variable into measurement data. An arrangement for operating a sensor, which has a configurable measurement variable sensor. A method for operating a sensor which has a configurable measurement variable sensor. The sensor can be a vibration sensor for measuring mechanical vibrations and has a configurable measurement variable sensor for converting the measurement variables into measurement data and a processor. The sensor has an interface with multiple functions. The interface is used initially for transferring coded measurement data so that the measurement data can be read from the sensor. The interface is also used in the transfer of configuration data for the configuration of the measurement variable sensor and for transferring a supply voltage for the electric supply of the sensor. The sensor can be fully operated by the individual interface.
