Setting the THPS-400 Analog level to correspond with the transducer to be attached.

Press MODE

Press 3

Press ENTER

Press 1, 2, 3 or 4 depending on which channel is to be adjusted.

Press ENTER

Press 7

Press ENTER

Press 1 for 0 – 5 VDC, 2 for 0 – 10 VDC or 3 for 4 – 20 mADC

Press ENTER

In the example listed above, you would have selected option number 1 for the 0 – 5 volt analog signal level since the maximum signal from the transducer is 5 VDC.

You have just set the analog operating level (range) for the selected channel.

Setting the display to read the maximum transducer value at the maximum transducer input.

Locate the 15-pin, ‘D’ type connector that corresponds to the channel to be spanned. J1 = Channel 1

J2 = Channel 2

J3 = Channel 3

J4 = Channel 4

For units set to meter a voltage range, short pin 14 (command out) to pin 6 (signal in) of the selected channel and place a calibrated volt meter to read from pin 5 (common) to pin 6. For units set to read a 4 to 20 mA range, connect a milliamp meter between pins 14 and 6. Press the CHANNEL # key corresponding to the selected channel. An asterisk (*) appears. Use the number keys to enter THPS-400 current span value. Use the decimal!

Press ENTER

Adjust the command to achieve a value as close to the max analog signal level as possible (±0.01 volts for the 5 volt range, ±0.02 volts for the 10 volt range and ±0.004 ampsfor the milliamp range. Do this using the CHANNEL# key, the numeric key pad and the ENTER key until the desired signal is established#.

Press MODE Press 3 Press ENTER

Press 1, 2, 3 or 4 depending on which channel is to be adjusted. Press ENTER

Press 3

Press ENTER

Use the numeric keys to enter the new SPAN value (Max transducer value to be displayed). Press ENTER

Press ENTER
