Programming the Meter (
Prog
)
The meter may either be scaled (
SCALE
) without
applying an input or calibrated (
Cal
) by applying an
input. The meter comes factory calibrated to NIST
standards, so for initial setup, it is recommended to
use the (
SCALE
) function. The Program menu contains
the Scale (
SCALE
) and the Calibrate (
Cal
) menus.
Process inputs may be scaled or calibrated to any
display 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
Features menu under the Multi-Point Linearization
menu selection prior to scaling and calibration
of the meter, see Advanced Features Menu, page 18.
Scaling the Meter (
SCale
)
The 4-20 mA input can be scaled to display the
process in engineering units.
A signal source is not needed to scale the meter;
simply program the inputs and corresponding display
values.
