NOTE: In order for the sampler to correctly scale the analog signal being output from the external device, the
parameters (in this case Upper Level Limit and Lower Level Limit) set in the sampler and the external device
must be the same. This is to ensure that if the external device is reading 10 feet and outputting a 4mA signal,
the sampler will also know that 10 feet is equal to 4mA. If the parameters do not correspond, there is a risk
that the sampler will potentially not scale the analog signal correctly and will subsequently not take samples at
the anticipated or correct instances.

SAMPLER READY
04/30 04:30:02
This display indicates the sampler is ready to program and displays
the current time. Press the
*
key to begin programming.
ENTER * MODE
__ __ 04:30:02
The sampler is now prompting for a star mode to be input. Enter the
numbers which represent the star mode of choice, in this example 06,
and press <ENTER>.
UPPER LEVEL LIMIT?
__ __ __ __ 04:30:02
Enter the Upper Level Limit as a 4-digit number. Remember the
decimal is implied in this program and the unit of measure is generic,
so if the user wants 10 feet/meters/inches/millimeters, it could be
entered as 0010, 0100, or 1000. Make sure to be CONSISTENT in
entries throughout the program.
LOWER LEVEL LIMIT?
__ __ __ __ 04:30:02
Enter the Lower Level Limit as a 4-digit number. Remember to be
consistent with the implied decimal from previous entries.
SAMPLING LEVEL 1?
__ __ __ __ 04:30:02
Enter the first level as a 4-digit number remembering to put in the
implied decimal point. Sampling Level 1 must be greater than the
Lower Level Limit.
