Ingersoll-Rand ETA2, ETA5 Edit Transducer File

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 (Edit Tx)

For ETA5:

At main menu, press (Configure) then

press (Edit Tx)

Screen will show

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

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

KEY using ; press .

Depending on type of type selected above,

continue set-up by following the appropriate

section.
