ProtEX-MAX PD8-6060 Explosion-Proof Dual-Input Meter Instruction Manual

Setting the Decimal Point (
dEc pt
)
The decimal point may be set with up to five decimal places or with no decimal point at all.
Pressing the Right arrow moves the decimal point one place to the right until no decimal point is
displayed, and then it moves to the leftmost position.
There are three decimal points to set up for three channels: Ch-A, Ch-B, and Ch-C.
After the decimal points are set up, the meter moves to the
Program
menu.
Programming the Meter (
prog
)
It is
very important
to read the following information, before proceeding to program the meter:
•
The meter is factory calibrated prior to shipment to read in milliamps and volts depending on the input
selection. The calibration equipment is traceable to NIST standards.
•
Use the
Scale
menu to scale the process input (e.g. 4-20 mA). A calibrated signal source is not
needed to scale the meter.
•
Use the
Calibrate
menu to apply a signal from a calibrator or a flowmeter.
The
Program
menu contains the
Scale
and the
Calibrate
menus for channels A & B.
The process inputs may be calibrated or scaled to any display value within the range of the meter.
Note: The Scale and Calibrate functions are exclusive of each other. The meter uses the last function
programmed. Only one of these methods can be employed at a time. The Scale and Calibrate functions
can use up to 32 points (default is 2). The number of points should be set in the Advanced Menu under
the menu selection prior to scaling and calibration of the meter, see page 51 for details.
