Quick Overview…
HELP
– You can press F1 for Help
on a selected or highlighted field
or control. You can also click the
[?] button in the upper-right hand
corner of the screen and then click
to point to a field or control to get
a Help message pertaining to the
item you pointed to.
For detailed configuration and
calibration procedures, see the
Operation Step-By-Step section of
the Technical Reference on page
14 of this manual.
The Configuration/Calibration section includes a type field where you are prompted
to enter measured current values for zero and full-scale after starting calibration.
You can also read the current transmitter configuration with “Get Config”, or
“Abort” calibration if necessary.
Under/Over Scale Thresholds (Sets Output Range & Alarm Levels)
Select the output under-scale and over-scale thresholds to define your linear
output operating range.
Indirectly sets the upscale and downscale fault limits outside of your linear
operating range to 1mA above over-scale, and 0.4mA below the under-scale
threshold settings.
Use these controls to define the linear operating range of the output, and its
associated alarm limits. Once you have made your selections, you can click the
“Submit U/O Configuration” button to engage your settings.
Break Detection (Sets Direction of Output Upon Fault)
Select output Downscale or Upscale lead-break or sensor fault detection.
Use these controls to set the direction that the output should go if a sensor lead
breaks. Then click the “Submit Break Detection” button to write your selection to
transmitter memory. Then a lead break or sensor burnout fault will send the output
to the upper or lower alarm level, according to this setting. Alarm levels are set
outside of the linear output operating range to 1mA above the over-scale threshold,
or 0.4mA below the under-scale threshold.
Factory Settings (In Case of Trouble)
Restores a transmitter to its original factory calibration.
Restores a transmitter to its initial factory configuration.
You can click the “Restore Factory Settings” button if you ever misconfigure or
miscalibrate a transmitter in such a way that its operation appears erratic.
Unit Status (For Validation & Trouble-Shooting)
Tests the integrity of your USB connection to the transmitter.
Reads the Fault Status of your input signals with respect to input amp.
Resets the transmitter (sets it to its power-up configuration).
Use the “Read Status” control to test communication and obtain diagnostic
information relative to the input. Input Fault Status messages will be returned on
the “Fault Status:” line, and in the system message bar at the bottom of the screen.
Optionally use the “Reset Unit” control to revert to the power-up or stored
configuration, or to clear a checksum error. Refer to Read Status of the Operation
Step-by-Step section for more information.
Message Bar (Bottom of Screen)
Displays the Fault Status message of your input signal (see above).
Displays other prompt instructions during calibration.
The system message bar at the bottom of the screen will display & repeat prompt
instructions as you step through calibration. It also displays diagnostic messages
after clicking “Read Status”.
