Fig 15 Setpoint adjustment from the display mode

To adjust an alarm setpoint select 'SP1' or 'SP2'
and press

 

P

 which will reveal the current setting.

Each digit of the setpoint may be adjusted using
the

 

 and 

 push buttons, and the

 

P

 button to

move control to the next digit.  When the required
setpoint has been entered, pressing  

E

 

will return

the display to the 'SP1' or 'SP2' prompt from which
the other setpoint may be selected, or the indicator
may be returned to the display mode by pressing 

E

again.

Note:

 With the indicator in the display mode, direct

access  to  the  alarm  setpoints  is  only  available
when  the  ACSP

 

menu  is  enabled  -  see  section

9.4.12

9.4.14  Displaying setpoints on BA327NE 
            bargraph

One  of  the  selectable  bargraph  formats  ‘AlrSP’
allows a low or a high setpoint plus the displayed
value  to  be  represented,  or  a  low  and  a  high
setpoint plus the displayed value to be represented
by the bargraph as shown in Fig 16.

Fig 16  Displayed value and setpoints on bargraph

The bargraph area below the low alarm setpoint
and  the  area  above  the  high  alarm  setpoint  are
activated.   The displayed variable is represented
by an activated bar which moves between these
low and high alarm setpoints.   

When the activated bar representing the displayed
variable is adjacent to the area  representing the
low  or  high  alarm  setpoints,  the  bar  flashes.
When a displayed variable equals the low or high
alarm  the  complete  bargraph  representing  the
activated alarm flashes irrespective of whether the
alarm output has been delayed or cleared. 

For  this  function  to  operate  SP1  must  be
conditioned  as  a  low  alarm  and  SP2  as  a  high
alarm;   SP1   must   always   be   less   than   SP2.
Incorrect  configuration  is  shown  by  a  flashing
bargraph scale with no activated bars.
