failure of the sensor that is connected to the 

controller input. 

Baud 

Baud Rate

Addr 

Address 

 

Number that identifies the controller in the serial 

communication network, between 1 and 247. 

CALIBRATION CYCLE 
All types of input are calibrated in the factory. In case a 

recalibration is required; it shall be carried out by a specialized 

professional. In case this cycle is accidentally accessed, do not 

perform alteration in its parameters. 

Pass 

Password

 

This parameter is presented before the protected 

cycles. See item Protection of Configuration. 

CaLb 

Calibration

 

Enables the possibility for calibration of the 

indicator. When the calibration is not enabled, the 

related parameters are hidden. 

in.LC 

Input Low 

Calibration

 

Enter the value corresponding to the low scale 

signal applied to the analog input. 

in.HC 

Input High 

Calibration

 

Enter the value corresponding to the full scale 

signal applied to the analog input. 

RESt 

Restore

 

Restores the factory calibration for all inputs and 

outputs, disregarding modifications carried out  by 

the user. 

Cj 

Cold Junction

 

This screen is for information purpose only. 
This parameter is not used for the input  function 

type 

Pt

Pas.C 

Password Change

different from zero. 

Prot 

Protection

 

Sets up the Level of Protection. See 

Table 03

H.PrG 

Hold Program

 

Enables the 

Hold Program

 

function on the   key.

Enables the display of the RUN parameter on the 

controller operating cycle. 

SnH 

Serial Number 

High

 

Displays the first four digits of the electronic serial 

number of the controller. 

SnL 

Serial Number  

Low

 

Displays the last four digits of the electronic serial 

number of the controller. 

CONFIGURATION PROTECTION 

The controller provides means for protecting the parameters 

configurations, not allowing modifications to the parameters values, 

avoiding tampering or improper manipulation. The parameter 

Protection

  (

Prot

), in the Calibration cycle, determines the 

protection strategy, limiting the access to particular cycles, as shown 

by the 

Table 03

PROTECTION 

LEVEL 

PROTECTION CYCLES 

Only the Calibration cycle is protected. 

Input and Calibration cycles are protected. 

Alarms, Input and Calibration cycles are 

protected. 

Programs, Alarms, Input and Calibration are 

protected. 

Tuning, Programs, Alarms, Input and 

Calibration are protected. 

All cycles, except SP screen in Operation 

cycle, are protected. 

All cycles, including SP, are protected.
