 and 

t

 buttons to 

adjust Set Point 1 to the desired value. 
Release the 

TEST

 button to store the Set Point 1 value. 

Note: The gauge will not respond to changes in applied pressure 
while the 

TEST

 button is pressed. The alarm relays, LEDs, and 

LCD alarm icons will maintain their prior states until the 

TEST 

button is released.
To exit the Set Point 1 Adjust mode and return to the normal 
operating mode, press and release the

 on the display. Enter the pass code as described 

in the Pass Code Entry section. 
If pass code setpoint protection is not enabled, the display will 
indicate Trip Point 2 with 

TRIP2

  blinking at a slow rate on the 

lower display, and the alarm indicators and the retransmission 
output will correspond to the applied pressure.
Press and hold the 

TEST

 button. The display will indicate Set 

Point 2 with 

SP2

 on the lower display. 

While holding the

 buttons to 

adjust Set Point 2 to the desired value. 
Release the 

TEST

 button to store the Set Point 2 value. 

Note: The gauge will not respond to changes in applied pres-
sure while the 

TEST

 button is pressed. The alarm relays, LEDs, 

and LCD alarm icons will maintain their prior states until the 

TEST

button is released.

To exit the Set Point 2 Adjust mode and return to normal opera-

Operation: Adjustable Hysteresis Alarms 

In the adjustable hysteresis mode, two independent set and 
reset points used for each relay and operate as shown below.

The LEDs indicate green for a RESET state and red for a SET 
state. Refer to the table for output states as a function of applied 
pressure.
If the gauge is configured for alarms, ALARM1 and ALARM2 will 
be indicated when alarm conditions exist, and the associated 

Operation: Fixed Deadband Alarms

Each relay may be independently configured as a high or low 
alarm in User Setup and operate as shown in the table below.

The relevant LCD alarm icon will indicate an alarm condition.
The relevant bi-color LED will be illuminated green for a normal 
condition or red for an alarm condition.
The LED will blink at a slow rate until the alarm is acknowledged 
unless the annunciator mode was disabled in setup. 
Alarms may be configured to be automatically acknowledged 
when the alarm condition clears or configured to be manually 
acknowledged by pressing the 

TEST

 button.

Displaying Trip Points

The applied pressure, the value of Trip Point 1, and the value of 
Trip Point 2 may be selected for display as follows:
When the applied pressure is being displayed, press and release 
the 

SEL

 button. 

The Trip Point 1 value will be displayed with 

TRIP1

 on the 

lower display.
When the Trip Point 1 value is being displayed, press and 
release the 

SEL

 button. 

The upper display will indicate the Trip Point 2 value with 

TRIP2 

on the lower display.

Press and release the 

SEL

 button. The upper display will 

indicate the applied pressure with engineering units on the 
lower display.

Adjusting Setpoints: Fixed Deadband Alarms

Set Point is defined as the pressure value that will result in a 
change of state only from a normal to an alarm condition. 
Trip Point is defined as the pressure value that will result in a 
change of state of alarm condition, and includes the effect of 
deadband when returning from an alarm to a normal condition.

Set Point 1

From the normal operating mode press the 

SEL

 button to 

display Trip Point 1. 
Press and hold the 

TEST

 button and press the 

SEL

 button. 

Release both buttons when the display indicates  – – – – .
If pass code setpoint protection is enabled, the display initially 
indicates  _ _ _ _  with the left-most underscore blinking, and 
with 

TSTPC

 on the display. Enter the pass code as described 

in the Pass Code Entry section. 
If pass code setpoint protection is not enabled, the display will 
indicate Trip Point 1 with 

TRIP1

  blinking at a slow rate on 

the lower display.
Press and hold the 

TEST

 button. The display will indicate Set 

Point 1 with 

SP1

 on the lower display. 

Relay Action in 

DBAND 

Fixed Deadband Mode

Use the 

s

 or the 

t

 buttons to select either

Normal Acting (Failsafe):  

_NOR_

Reverse Acting:  

_REV_

If 

NOR_

 is selected, the output relay coils will be energized in 

the RESET state and de-energized in the SET state. 
If 

_REV_

 is selected, the output relay coils will be de-

energized in the RESET state and energized in the SET state
When the desired alarm type is displayed, press and release the 

SEL

 button to move to the Output Test and Set Point Adjust Pass 

Code Protection section.

Adjustable Hysteresis 

ADJ_H

 

 Alarm Setup

Relay Power Up State in 

ADJ_H

 Adjustable Hysteresis Mode

This determines the state of the relays if the gauge is powered 
up while the pressure is between the SET and RESET trip points. 
For some applications it may not be desirable to have an alarm 
condition during power-up. 
Use the 

s

 or the 

t

 buttons to select either 

SP1_L

 or 

SP1_H

.

If 

SP1_L

 is selected and the gauge is powered up while the 

pressure is between the Relay 1 SET and RESET trip points, 
Relay 1 will begin in the RESET state. 
If 

SP1_H

 is selected and the gauge is powered up while the 

applied pressure is between the Relay 1 SET and RESET trip 
points, Relay 1 will begin in the SET state. 
When the desired alarm state is selected, press and release the 

SEL

 button to move to Relay 2.

Use the 

s

 or the 

t

 buttons to select either 

SP2_L

 or 

SP2_H

.

If 

SP2_L

 is selected and the gauge is powered up while the 

applied pressure is between the Relay 2 SET and RESET trip 
points, Relay 2 will begin in the RESET state.
If 

SP2_H

 is selected and the gauge is powered up while the 

applied pressure is between the Relay 2 SET and RESET trip 
points, Relay 2 will begin in the SET state.
When the desired alarm state is selected, press and release the 

SEL

 button to move to the next parameter.

Relay 1 Action in 

ADJ_H 

Adjustable Hysteresis Mode

s

 or the 

t

 buttons to select either

_NOR1 

 is selected, the output relay coil will be energized in 

the RESET state and de-energized in the SET state. 
If 

_REV1

 is selected, the output relay coil will be de-energized 

in the RESET state and energized in the SET state.
When the desired Alarm 1 action is selected, press and release 
the 

SEL

 button to move to Alarm 2.

Use the 

s

 or the 

t

 buttons to select either

Normal Acting (Failsafe):

_REV2

If 

_NOR2 

 is selected, the output relay coil will be energized 

in the RESET state and de-energized in the SET state. 
If 

_REV2

  is selected, the output relay coil will be de-

energized in the RESET state and energized in the SET state.
When the desired Alarm 2 action is selected, press and release 
the

Output Test & Set Point Adjust Pass Code 
Protection

This setting determines if a pass code is required to acess the 
Output Test and Set Point Adjustments.
Use the 

s

 or the 

t

 buttons to select either 

TSTPC

 or 

NOTPC

.

The lower display will indicate 

TSTPC
