WARNING:

 If any of the following operations are performed in 

hazardous areas, all appropriate hazardous area procedures must 

be followed.

WARNING:

 Disconnect from supply before opening.

WARNING:

 Calibration of the Loop-Powered Display should 

be performed in a non-hazardous area prior to installing it in its 

enclosure.

CAUTION:

 Care should be taken to avoid static electricity 

damaging the electronic circuitry.

setUp

The only tools needed for calibration are a calibrated current 

source, a flat head screwdriver & a phillips head screwdriver. 

Please note that the meter must be disassembled in order to 

perform the setup functions.

Disassembly 

The calibration controls are located behind the display faceplate. 

To access these controls, you must first remove the enclosure 

cover and faceplate by doing the following:

Loosen the four screws on the enclosure cover and remove. 

Unscrew the two fasteners that hold the faceplate, then remove.

Connections

Field connections are made to the screw terminals located on 

the Signal Input Board.  To access these screw terminals it is 

necessary to remove the Display Board from the Signal Input 

Board. First, disconnect the ribbon cable connector from the 

Display Board. Next, remove the two screws located to the left 

and right of the LCD that hold the Display Board in place. Finally,

Calibration Controls

Calibration of these meters is a two-step process involving four 

controls. These controls are located on the Display Board. The 

LO controls are on the right and the HI controls on the left. The 

pre-configured jumper array JP2 and JP3 are also located on the 

Display Board. 

Calibration procedure

Connect the 4-20 mA input signal. Apply 4 mA to the input and 

adjust the coarse and fine LO controls for the desired reading. 

Next apply a signal between 16 and 20 mA and adjust the 

coarse and fine HI controls for the desired reading. Complete the 

calibration by making any minor adjustments to the LO and HI 

displays.
