Connector Pinouts

This meter uses plug-in type screw terminal connectors for all 

input and output connections� The power supply connections 

(pins  14  and  15)  have  a  unique  plug  and  socket  outline  to 

prevent cross connection� The main board uses standard right-

angled connectors�

WARNING

AC and DC input signals and power supply voltages can be 

hazardous. Do Not connect live wires to screw terminal plugs, and do not 

insert, remove or handle screw terminal plugs with live wires connected.

Decimal selection 

is made by moving 

the jumper to the 

indicated position 

on the header for 

the decimal required 

on the front of the 

display board�

To open meter,

 insert 

a flat head screwdriver 

or similar instrument in 

both slots on the side 

of the cover and pry 

open.  The  UM-Series 

meters slide out from 

the front of the case as 

a complete assembly�

The first step

 is to disengage the ZERO Pot and scale down the 

Signal Span input to produce the desired Digital Display Span 

output�

 

Signal Span

 is defined as the total change of signal input that 

would be required for a specific change of the Digital Display� 

The largest Signal Span that can be specified with a 4 to 20mA 

input is 16mA� A 4mA Signal Span proportionately scaled can 

meet full scale display accuracy�

 

Digital Display Span is defined as the exact total in counts, 

that the display would change within a specific Signal Span� 

The largest Digital Display Span that can be displayed is -1999 

to +1999 (4000 counts)� 16mA can not d4000, so 

instead 4mA can be scaled to +1000�

The second step 

is to select a Zero Offset Range and offset the 

Digital Display Span with the ZERO Pot, until the desired reading 

is displayed�

 

Maximum offset

 is -3000 to +2000 counts� A Digital Display 

Span of 4000 counts requires an offset of -3000 to display 

-1999 to +1999�

For example

: A 4 to 20mA input to read -40�0°C to +199�9°C 

Signal Span = 16mA, Digital Display Span = 2400 counts�

1� Remove the meter from its case and set the Zero Offset 

Range Header to the Calibrate position� Select the 1400 – 

3000 position on the Span Adjust Header and slide the meter 

back into the case.

2� Connect power to the meter and apply 4mA (25% of 16mA)� 

Adjust the SPAn  Pot until the display reads +600 (25% of 

2400)� The meter is now scaled for a Signal Span of 16mA 

and a Digital Display Span of 2400 counts. In the example 

4mA should read -400 and 20mA read 1999, therefore the 

Digital Display Span should be offset by -1000�

3� Disconnect power and remove the meter from the case, 

select the negative offset position on the ZERO OFFSET 

RANGE Header, and slide the meter back into the case.

4� Connect power to the meter, apply 4mA and adjust the ZERO 

Pot until the display reads -400. With the Digital Display Span 

now offset by -1000 counts, the meter will read -400 for a 

4mA input, and read +1999 for a 20mA input� Select decimal 

point 1xx

x to display -40�0 to +199�9� Then apply the self 

adhesive °C symbol (from the Face Plate Descriptor sheet 

may be ordered� P�n:DU-CASEDES) to complete the calibra-

tion�
