Trim temperature display:  

tri

This  function  only  appears  in  the  configuration
menu  when  the  A90-SS  meter  has  been
configured for a resistance thermometer input.  

The trim function enables the zero and span of the
temperature display to be adjusted to compensate
for the cable resistance of a two wire connected
RTD   and   the   cable   imbalance   of   a   three   wire
connected  RTD.    Compensation  can  also  be
applied  for  primary  element  interchangeability
errors. .The 

tri

 function also contains a clear trim

function  

clr.t

 which removes any zero and span

trim that has been applied and returns the A90-SS
meter’s  temperature  display  calibration  to  the
Pt100 figures specified in IEC 60751.

To  compensate  for  cable  imbalance  connect  a
calibrator with resistance equivalent to the required
lower A90-SS meter temperature reading in place
of the resistance thermometer.  

Please see caution

at  the  end  of  this  section.

  Select

2ero.

Pressing

again   will   cause   the   lower   meter

reading to be displayed with one digit flashing.  

The A90-SS meter can now be trimmed to display
the correct temperature equivalent to the calibrator
resistance.    Pressing  the  

&

 or  

*  

button  will

adjust  the  flashing  digit  and  the

To trim the upper A90-SS meter reading first set
the  calibrator  to  the  resistance  equivalent  to  the
required upper A90-SS meter temperature reading.
