Tracking Zero
The tracking zero is a function for automatically digitally correcting the
movement of the zero point inside. This function starts to work at the
instant the digital zero function is enabled. Correction is made according
to the values set for the tracking zero time setting and tracking zero
width setting in the condition data.
(1) Digital zero function is enabled. Displayed value becomes 0.
(2)(3) At 5th sampling time, because displayed value is under 3 digit,
correction is performed and displayed value
become “0”.
(4) Because displayed value is over 3 digit, correction is not
performed.
(5) Because displayed value is under 3 digit, correction is performed
and displayed val
ue become “0”.
6. External Control Function
For those equipped with BCD outputs, there are the hold, digital zero
and peak hold functions that can be external controlled.
The external control terminals are DC isolated from the power and input
terminals.
6.1 Hold Function
The hold function is a function for stopping refreshing indication at an
arbitrary timing. It is activated by shorting the HOLD terminal to the COM
terminal or bringing its potential to the “0” level.
6.2 Digital Zero Function
The digital zero function is a function for resetting indication to zero at
an arbitrary timing and then displaying a range of variations from that
point onward. ON/OFF of the digital zero function can be controlled
either by the terminal control or by using keys on the front panel.
For terminal control, this function is activated by shorting the DZ terminal
to the COM terminal or bringing its potential to
the “0” level.
For control using front-panel keys, it can be activated by pressing the
Increment key with the Mode key held down. Taking the same step again
causes this function to be deactivated.
* For operation using the control terminals or the front panel keys,
terminal control has precedence over front-panel key operation.
6.3 Peak Hold Function
The peak hold function is a function for holding the maximum value
(Peak Hold), the minimum value (Valley Hold), and the difference
between them (Peak Valley Hold). Switching between these holding
functions is achieved using condition data. The peak hold function is
activated by shorting the P/H terminal to the COM terminal or bringing its
potential to the “0” level.
6.4 Pattern Select Function
Pattern select function is a function selects one scaling data pattern from
pattern 1to 4.
A pattern is selected by the conditions of P.SEL0 and P.SEL1 terminals
as shown below:
Selected Pattern
P.SEL1
P.SEL0
Pattern No.1
Open / “1” level
Open / “1” level
Pattern No.2
Open / “1” level
Short with COM / “0” level
Pattern No.3
Short with COM / “0” level
Open / “1” level
Pattern No.4
Short with COM / “0” level
Short with COM / “0” level
* Only one pattern is required, leave P.SEL0 and P.SEL1 open and use pattern No.1.
