14.0 Appendix D
Setting the Zero & Span
on the
PowerPod-400 Power Supply/Totalizer
All procedures outlined in this document must be performed with the power supply turned on and warmed up for at least one hour.
All procedures outlined in this document must be performed with NO transducers connected to the channel being adjusted*.
You CANNOT successfully zero a channel without, first, supplying zero volts or four milliamps to the meter input for that channel.
You CANNOT successfully span a channel without, first, supplying the meter input for that channel with its appropriate span voltage or span current.
14.1 Zeroing Unit (Voltage Range).
The following instructions explain how to short a given channel’s input signal to ground (0 volts DC) and set the display to read zero at this voltage.
Locate the
J2 = Channel 2
J3 = Channel 3
J4 = Channel 4
Short pin 5 (signal common) to pin 6 (signal in).
Press MODE
Press 3
Press ENTER
Press 1, 2, 3 or 4, depending on which channel is to be zeroed.
Press ENTER
Press 7
Press ENTER
