Rate Time-Base:

This step is for programming time-base for calculation of Rate. Units of time-base are seconds. Again, the active digit will be flashing. To change the value, push ^v key. To activate another digit for change, use <NXT> key. On finishing, push SETUP key.

Remote Tare/Hold:

Remote Tare/Hold feature lets you select between the remote switch being used for resetting tare or holding the reading on the display. The display will read 'RT TARE' (for remote Tare) or 'RT HOLD' ( for remote display hold feature ). To get the alternate mode push ^v key. Else push SETUP key and this will get you into the next function.

Input Type:

The step after remote Tare/Hold is selecting the input type. The display will first read ‘IP TYPE’ followed by the current selection. Various input types are:

i)

CURRENT

4-20MA Signal

ii)

VOLTAGE

0-10Vdc, 0-5Vdc etc.

iii) LO VOLT

0-100mv etc.

To make a selection push ^v key. After selection push SETUP key to go to the next step.

Input Range:

The following step is the last step in this process. This is where you program the input range of your signal. On entering this mode, the display will first read "IP RNGE" (for input range) followed by the indication of current input range. Following RANGE values should be entered for various inputs:

INPUT TYPE

INPUT RANGE

PROGRAMMED VALUE

VOLTAGE

0-10VDC Signal

10.000

VOLTAGE

0-5VDC Signal

5.000

CURRENT

4-20ma Loop Current

20.00

LO VOLT

0-100 Millivolt Signal

100.0

If the end user recalibrates any of the process inputs to different values he/she must enter new values here.

NOTE: THE INPUT TYPE IS SET ACCORDING TO THE MODEL ORDERED. SIMPLY MAKING A SELECTION WILL NOT CONVERT THE UNIT FROM A CURRENT TO A VOLTAGE OR A MILLIVOLT UNIT. THIS IS A HARDWARE CHANGE AND MUST BE SELECTED AT THE TIME OF PLACING THE ORDER.

After entering the desired input range, push the SETUP key. This will take us back to the very beginning of setup mode with the display reading SETUP briefly and then SCALING. To exit at this point push and hold RESET key till the display shows ‘SAVING’.
