Noise Filter:

 Averages the input signal over a period of time between 1 

and 16 seconds to dampen the effects of a noisy signal that causes a 

jumpy display.

than bypass value are displayed immediately.

Recalibration:

 Recalibration is recommended at least every 12 months. 

Max/Min Display: 

Max/min readings reached by the process are stored 

until reset by the user or until power to the meter is turned off. 

Tare: 

Zeros out display

Password: 

Programmable password restricts modification of programmed 

settings. 

Non-Volatile Memory:

 All programmed settings are stored in non-volatile 

memory for a minimum of ten years if power is lost.

Displayed every 10 seconds for 1 second on bottom line

Alarm Acknowledge:

 Front panel ACK button or external digital input 

resets output and screen indication

Auto Initialization: 

When power is applied to the meter, open collectors 

and relays will reflect the state of the input to the meter
