B-series Operation 

B - 10 

For example, the following key sequence is used to enter the Tag Name ‘FT-100’: 
 

Tag Name characters  Key sequence 

3,3,3,3,E  

(E accepts the character and moves the cursor to 
the next character position to the right)

 

8,8,E 

-,E 

1,E 

0,E 

0,E 

Accept entry 

(E is used to accept the entered text string)

 

 
All of the above menus may be accessed via the USB port using a terminal emulator 
program (such as HyperTerminal or TeraTerm).  The display on the terminal emulator 
screen will overwrite in place like the LCD does.  The function keys on the terminal 
emulator are the same as the 4x5 keypad but in lower case.  To turn off the echo of the 
display characters to the serial ports, press the 

+

 key, (shift +).  Pressing 

+

 key again will 

toggle it back on.  The unit will respond to only the + and <ESC>xxx commands when 
Terminal Echo is off.

 

 
Note:  The meter Tag Name and other text parameters can be entered as a continuous 
string using a remote terminal keyboard (versus single characters followed by the 
<ENTER> key) by holding the <SHIFT>key while simultaneously pressing the alpha (A-
Z), numeric (0-9), hyphen (-), or period (.) key.

Run Mode

 screen is configurable for 

both content and style.  The configuration is saved in EEPROM and is persistent 
between bootup/power cycles of the meter.  The

7

, for the Display Setup menu.

Run Mode

 screens can be 

configured to display as 

scrolling

 screens displaying one process variable per screen.  

Or the display can be a 

static

 screen displaying up to 2 process variables.  Use the 

^

 or 

v

 keys to select between STATIC and SCROLLED and press 

E

 to accept the selection.
