Scaling and Calibration
It is very important to read the following information, before proceeding to program the controller:
•
There is
no need to recalibrate
the controller when first received from the factory.
•
All inputs are factory calibrated. The calibration equipment used is certified to NIST standards.
•
Use the
Scale
menu to enter the scaling without a signal source.
•
Use the
Calibrate
menu to apply a signal from a calibrator or a flowmeter for the scaling.
Setting the Input Signal (
Input
)
Enter the
Input
menu to set up the controller to display current (
mA
) or voltage (
volt
) inputs.
The current input is capable of accepting any signal from 0 to 20 mA. Select current input to accept 0-20
mA or 4-20 mA signals.
The voltage input is capable of accepting any signal from -10 to +10 VDC. Select voltage input to accept 0-
5, 1-5, 0-10, or
10 VDC signals.
Setting the Totalizer and Batching Features (
total
)
After the input type is entered, set the
total
parameter to “
Yes
” to enable batch control (this is set by
default). If the
total
features are disabled, most batching features and functions are hidden from the
menus.
Setting the Input Units or Custom Tags (
units
)
Enter the input unit or custom tag that will be displayed if alternating rate, total, or grand total and units is
selected in the
units
menu, or
d unit
is selected as the Lower display parameter. See the flow chart on
page 30 to access the display menu to show the unit or tag on the Lower display. The engineering units or
custom legends can be set using the following 7-segment character set:

Notes:
Degree symbol represented by (<) if programming with MeterView

Pro.
The letters “m” and “w” use two 7-segment LEDs each; when selected the characters to the right are shifted
one position.
Press and hold up arrow to auto-scroll the characters in the display.
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. The rate, total,
and grand total decimal points are independent.
Press the Up arrow to move the decimal point one place to the left. Press the Right arrow to move the
decimal point one place to the right.
