13.  DUAL RELAY OPERATION   

 

 

Dual  AC/DC  solid  state  relays

  rated  120  mA  are  standard  for  alarm  or  setpoint  control  and  are 

independently  set  up  via  the  “Relay  Alarms”  tab  of  Instrument  Setup  Software.  For  online  help 
with any data entry field, press the 

F1

 key.  

 

 

Setpoint.

 The number to which the current reading is compared if deviation is set to zero. The 

reading is the count in engineering units that is transmitted digitally and is also used for analog 
output.  For  example,  if  the  transmitted  reading  is  in  gallons/minute,  the  setpoint  will  be 
referenced to that reading, not to the raw pulse rate sent from a turbine flow meter.
