Setup Examples
Example #1: Use of the OFFSET Parameter
Setup for a 4-20ma transducer signal corresponding to 0-500 gallons of fluid (reading in 10th of a gallon resolution):
DECIMAL POINT = 999.9
HIGH SCALE = 500.0
LOW SCALE = 000.0
OFFSET = 4.000
TARE = 0.000
Example #2: Use of the LOW SCALE Parameter
Setup for a 4-20ma transducer signal corresponding to 500-2000 degrees Fahrenheit temperature i.e. 500 degrees at 4ma
and 2000 degrees at 20ma (one degree resolution):
DECIMAL POINT = 9999
HIGH SCALE = 2000
LOW SCALE = 500
OFFSET = 4.00
TARE = 0.000
Example #3: Use of the TARE Parameter
Setup for a 0-5Vdc transducer signal corresponding to 0-10.00 pounds of material being packaged in a box weighing 0.50
pounds with display reading in 0.01 lb. increments. DSP3200 should display the weight of the material only (not the box
as well):
DECIMAL POINT = 99.99
HIGH SCALE = 10.00
LOW SCALE = 00.00
OFFSET = 0.00
TARE = 0.50
After entering the correct pass-code and selecting the blinking 'SYS' (ref. SETUP section), DPS3300 Series goes into
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION mode. This mode allows setting up parameters
that affect all the channels or the instrument in general.
Setup For Display Options
After pushing SETUP key while SYS is blinking, the display briefly shows
'dSP OPt' (for display option) and then the present Display Option setting.
Table 3 below lists all 6 display options available. Use SDIGT key to step
thru the options. Once the desired Display Option is shown, push SETUP key
to enter the setting and go to Setup For Display Time.
Table 3. Display Options
DISPLAY OPTION DISPLAY WINDOW READS
1) Display elapsed time ELPSEd t
2) Scan active channels SCAn
3) Display channel with highest reading HI CHAN
4) Display channel with lowest reading LO CHAN
5) Display deviation from SETPOINT dSP dEN
6) Display channel differential CH1 dIF
