Edit Transducer File

Failure to input proper information may result in inaccurate readings.

The following instructions for “Edit Transducer File” must be followed before any reading or measurements can be taken.

This section may be skipped if you are using an Ingersoll-Rand TSD, TRD or Crane UTA Series Transducer.

There are 5 types of transducers and inputs which the ETA will accept.

1.High Output (H/O). These transducers have an internal amplifier and give an output signal level of 1-2 Volts.

2.Industry Standard (IS). These trans- ducers have no internal amplifier. The exact span or rated torque will be marked on the transducer nameplate. The sensitivity of these transducers is 2 mV/V., they are fitted with a 350 Ohm bridge.

3.Serial. These are digital type transduc- ers and produce an RS232 signal.

4.Keypad (KPD). This is an optional key- pad which connects to the ETA.

5.Keyboard (KEY). Keyboard on ETA.

Use of any of the above 5 types of inputs requires that settings are made in the trans- ducer file before any measurements can take place. The procedure for entering set- tings follows.

For ETA2:

At main menu, press 1 (Edit Tx)

For ETA5:

 

 

At main menu, press

1 (Configure) then

press 2 (Edit Tx)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Screen will show

Transducer

B (Current set-up)

Complete set-up

The ‘B’ indicates that this is the ‘B’ file in memory. It is the first of 8 memories (labelled B to I) reserved for the saving of transducer set-ups. Your most used transducer setting should be stored in this memory.

The remaining memories (C to I) may be

accessed by pressing .

Press Enter

Select input type H/O, I/S, SER, KPD or

KEY using

; press Enter .

Depending on type of type selected above, continue set-up by following the appropriate section.
