Programming the Rate/Totalizer (
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 certified to NIST standards.
Use the
Scale
menu to scale process inputs (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 following menus:
1. Scale without a signal source
2. Calibrate with a calibrated signal source
3. Total time base & conversion factor
4. Grand total time base & conversion factor
5. Total reset mode for total & grand total
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 Multi-Point Linearization (Linear) menu selection prior to
scaling and calibration of the meter, see page 80 for details.
The process input may be calibrated or scaled to any display
value within the range of the meter.
Additional parameters, not needed for most applications, are
programmed in the
Advanced Features
menu; see
