4. Re-Calibration

This procedure requires a known pressure source of at least ±0.1% accuracy in 

order to fully utilize the accuracy potential of the DPG5000 (If not available, the 
gauge can be returned to OMEGA for re-calibration.)

  Procedure:

A.  Ensure the Gauge is at 0 psig (or vacuum if absolute), and adjust the zero 

as per instructions in step 1.

B.  Apply full scale pressure to the pressure port and adjust the span (“S”) pot 

until the display reads the correct pressure.

C.  Re-check the zero and re-adjust the zero (“Z”) pot if required.
D.  Repeat steps B and C, until no further adjustment is required.

5. Use Of Peak-Hold Feature (Optional)

After initially turning the gage on (wait until the display stops flashing), a 

second push of the On/Off button energizes the peak-hold feature and causes 
an arrow to appear in the display. In this mode, only the highest reading sensed 
will be shown (until a higher reading comes along). This “peak” reading will be 
retained until the unit is reset by turning it off with a third push of the button. 
The sequence can then be re-initiated; one push for on in normal mode, two 
pushes for “peak-hold” mode and a third push for Off/Re-set.

6. Analog Output Option (0 To 2 VDC)

The 0–2 VDC analog output is accessed through a miniature “Phone Jack” 

(mate supplied) on the back of the unit (see External Power and 0-2 VDC 
Output Plug drawing on the last page). The “Tip” connection is “+ Output” 
and the center connection is “- Output”. DO NOT CONNECT TO THE CASE 
CONNECTION. This should only be used as a cable restraint. To minimize the 
effect on the battery life, the output should not be loaded with less than 100,000 
ohms.
