CAUTION

When adding break-points to a new indicator,
or following resetting of the lineariser to the
factory  defaults  using  the  'LtAb'  function
described  in  section  6.11,  new  break-points
should  be  added  between  the  two  default
break-points  '0:1'  and  '1:1'.      If  new  break-
points are added before breakpoint '0:1' which
has a default setting of 4mA, it will result in a
'FaiL'  error  message  when  the  indicator
display is entered. 

The delete break-point sub-function 'dEL' operates
in exactly the same way as the 'Add' sub-function
described  above.      Once  within  the  ‘dEL’  sub-
function each time the 

P

 button is pressed a break-

point is removed. When deleting a break-point from
a calibrated indicator, the break-point to be deleted
can be selected using the 

 and 

 push buttons.

The minimum number of break-point is 2, break-
points '0:1' and '1:1'.  

When  the  required  number  of  linearising  break-
points has been entered, return to the linearisation
sub-menu by pressing 

E

.  

The indicator will display

the 'Add' or 'dEL' prompt depending upon the last
function used.    Using the 'Pts' sub-function the
input current at which each break-point occurs and
the  corresponding  indicator  display  may  now  be
defined. 

Using the 

 or 

 button select the  'PtS' function

in the sub-menu and press 

P

  to enter the function

which will display the first break-point '0 : n', where
n  is  the  total  number  of  linearising  break-points
entered   –   see   Fig   9.     The   selected   linearising
break-point can be changed using the 

 and 

buttons.  When the required linearising break-point
has been selected set the indicator input current to
the exact value at which the break-point is required
and press  

P

*

.   Using the 

 and 

 buttons and

the  

P

  button  to  move  between  digits,  enter  the

required indicator display at this break-point.  

When set as required, press the 

E

 

push button

 

to

enter the required indicator display and return to
the sub-menu from which the next beak-point can
be selected.   

*  

Note:

 

The  indicator  input  current  must  be

adjusted to the required value before the 

button

is operated to enter the required indicator display.

Error message

If during calibration the indicator displays a
'FAiL' error message the current at which the
selected break-point is being set is not above
the proceeding break-point or is not below the
following break-point.   

When  all  the  break-points  have  been  calibrated
pressing  

E

 

twice  will  return  the  indicator  to  the

‘CAL’ function in the configuration menu.

7.2  Lineariser calibration using the internal 
       reference.

The  ‘SEt’  function  enables  the  lineariser  to  be
calibrated  without  the  need  for  an  accurate
external current source.  Throughout the calibration
the  indicator  input  current  may  be  any  value
between 4 and 20mA.    

The ‘SEt’ functions contains four sub-functions. 

Display

      Description of function

'Add'

Add a break-point

Adds  a  new  break-point  before  the
displayed break-point.  The calibration
of existing break-points is not changed,
but  the  identification  number  of  all
subsequent break-point is increased by
one.

'dEL'

Remove a break-point

Removes  the  displayed  break-point
and joins the preceding segment to the
following  segment with  a  straight  line.
The  identification  number  of  all
subsequent  break-points  is  decreased
by one.

'in' 

Defines the current at which break-
point occurs.

Enables  the  required  current  at  each
break-point  to  be  defined  without
having  to  input  an  accurate  input
current to the indicator.

'diSP'

Defines  indicator  display  at  break-
point.

Enables  the  indicator  display  at  each
break-point to be defined.

The number of break-point required should first be
entered using the 'Add' and 'dEL'  sub-functions.
In  both  these  sub-functions  the  indicator  initially
displays  the  current  break-point  and  the  total
number of break-point being used as shown below.

To   add   a   break-point   using   the  

 or  

 button

select 'SEt' from the configuration menu and press

P

 

which will result in the

 

'Add' sub-function prompt

being displayed. To enter the sub-function press 

P

which will reveal the current break-point and the
total  number  of  break-point  which  have  already
been entered.    Each subsequent operation of the

P

   push button will introduce an additional break-
