Abstract (en)

It is an object of the invention to facilitate monitoring prescribed parameter ranges of industrial sensors. For this purpose, the invention provides a display device for displaying measurement values of sensors, the display device comprising at least one electrical connector for connecting to a sensor output a housing with a display, a multicolour backlight and a processing device wherein said display is being luminated by said multicolour backlight and adapted to display at least measurement values, wherein said processing device is suitable to read said measurement values from the electrical connector, to calculate the values to be displayed and being set up to compare said measurement values to at least one prescribed limit value limiting a normal operation range and to change the illumination of said multicolour backlight if said comparison yields that the measurement value is not within said normal operation range. A method of control the display device is also provided.
