are entered. Pressing the ‘ ’ key, at any point, enters the numerical value currently
displayed.
Notes
Where control values are entered (such as 4-20mA) the currently set value is displayed when
first entering the screen. This allows the user to simply press the ‘ ’ key and leave the screen
without altering any information. Useful when entering a function by accident.
The decimal point (dp) will always appear in the correct location.
On some screens when using ºC or ºF the first digit is the negative sign selector. This is either
ON or OFF.
Pressing the ‘
’ key when the last character is active will make the first character active.
10.3
Entering Alphanumerical Data
(Full Logging SADPminiEx only)
Some functions such as the “Create TAG” allow the user to enter a combination of letters
and numbers. The principle for entering data is the same as that for entering numerical
data (10.2 above) except that the ‘
’ and ‘
’ keys scroll through the 26 letters of the
alphabet as well as the 10 numerical characters.
Note – There is a dual speed function when entering alphanumerical data. When either the ‘
’
or ‘
’ key is pressed and held, the speed of scroll will increase.
10.4
Security Protection Screens
Several of the SADPminiEx functions can be protected with security codes. These are the
main ‘Setup Menu’, the ‘AutoCal’ function, and the ‘SPC’ (Single Point Calibration)
function. Each of these functions can be protected with an independently activated user
defined 4-digit security code. Once activated, a screen requesting the correct code will be
displayed when the associated function is selected. Failure to enter the correct code will
prevent access to the function. Default setting 1000

The Setup Menu
(See Appendix C - SADPminiEx Setup Menu Map)
The setup menu it activated by pressing the ‘
’ and ‘ ’ keys simultaneously. From this
menu, the user has the choice of several options detailed below:
11.1.1
Select Units
Description – This sub-menu has eight options allowing the user to select any one of
seven Moisture Engineering Units and to exit the menu.
Note: - 1) Once an engineering unit is selected, the SADPminiEx will only display and accept
inputs in that chosen unit.
This means that 4-20mA settings (where fitted), offsets and
SPCs are all performed in the chosen units.
