Omega Engineering DP3600 user manual Program Limits

Offset:

Next configurable function is offset and is indicated by the message ‘OFFSET’ followed by current offset value. To change the value of flashing digit press ^v key. To move the flashing digit, push <NXT> key. After programming the desired value of offset, push the "SETUP" key to get to the next function.

Tare:

Tare mode is indicated by the word 'TARE' followed by current Tare value. To change the value of flashing digit, press ^v key. To move the flashing digit, push <NXT> key. After programming the desired value of ‘TARE’ push ‘SETUP’ key (Minimum programmable tare is zero, maximum is equal to the scale value). This will take us back to the very beginning of SETUP mode with the display showing the message ‘SCALING’.

PROGRAM LIMITS:

Process Limits (1 thru 4):

If selection made from programming groups is for ‘PROG LT’ then the very first parameter programmed is process limit 1. This is indicated by the message ‘PrG LT1’ followed by pre-programmed value of the limit. Again, use <NXT> key to move flashing to the next digit and ^v key to increment/decrement the value of the flashing digit.

The following steps are very similar to the above (i.e. for Limits 2,3 and 4 and also if Limits 3 and 4 are setup as process limits) and allow you to enter process limits 2 through 4. However, limits 3 and 4 can be configured to work as rate and deviation limits, respectively. Therefore, after programming limit 2, the next step takes us into selection of limit 3 as rate or process limit.

Selection of Limit 3 as Process or Rate Limit:

This step comes after programming Limit 2 and is indicated by the message ‘LT3 RTE’ (if Limit 3 is setup as Rate limit) or ‘LT3 Pr’ (if Limit 3 is setup as Process limit). Alternate selection can be made by pushing ^v key. Push SETUP key after making the selection.

Programming Limit 3:

As Process Limit:

If Limit 3, in the above step, was configured as a Process limit, then the message displayed on entering this mode will be ‘PrG Lt3’. This will be followed by displaying of current value of Limit 3 . Use <NXT> key to move flashing to the next digit and ^v key to increment/decrement the value of the flashing digit.

As Rate Limit:

If Limit 3, in the above step, was configured as a Rate limit, then the message displayed on entering this mode will be ‘RATE Lt’. This will be followed by displaying of current value of Limit 3 . Use <NXT> key to move flashing to the next digit and ^v key to increment/decrement the value of the flashing digit.
