Channel Display Box Screen
①
Thermocouple Type
This box indicates the type of thermocouple sensor
that your connector/-transmitter has been programmed to operate with. As a
default the thermocouple color codes have been set to the ANSI color codes.
You can change these to IEC color codes, see section 3.5.2
②
Reference
This location will display the reference name you typed into the
“Description” field when this box was configured. This can be changed at any
time.
③
Address
The number displayed here is the address number you specified
when this display box was configured. This number must match the
corresponding Connector/Transmitter that has the same number specified or
your system will not receive the correct data readings.
④
Process
This is the actual process temperature reading that is being
measured by your thermocouple or RTD sensor.
⑤
Ambient
This is the actual ambient temperature connector inside the body
of your Connector/Transmitter. If the unit is exposed to temperatures outside
the limits specified in this manual the reading will begin to blink and the
digits will turn red to provide a visual warning.
⑥
Options
The Options button provides quick access to the channel
configuration menu.
⑦
RX
The “RX” indicator box will display a green light that blinks each time
the receiver acquires data from the corresponding connector transmitter.
⑧
Signal
This percentage bar graph indicates the radio signal strength being
received by the receiver. This should be used as guidance when installing your
system to help determine the best location and positioning of your equipment.
⑨
Battery
This percentage bar graph indicates the amount of remaining
usable available power the battery installed in the Connector/Transmitter has
left to operate normally.
