5.4  For resistance thermometer inputs

5.4.1 Types of resistance thermometer 'tYPE'

The transmitter may be conditioned to accept
3-wire, 4-wire or differential Pt100 resistance
thermometers.  

After selecting resistance thermometer input from
the 'InPut' sub-menu,  press 

P

 to reveal the 'tYPE'

sub-menu. Press 

P

 again to display the current

type resistance thermometer which may be
changed by scrolling through the menu using the 

Up

or 

Down

 buttons.  When the required type is

displayed, press 

E

 to return to the sub-menu.

5.4.2  Display units  'dEg'

The transmitter display may be in degrees
centigrade or Fahrenheit.  To check or change the
display units select 'dEg' from the sub-menu and
press 

P

 to reveal the current setting.  The setting

may be changed by pressing the 

Up

 or 

Down

button. When the required unit is displayed, press 

E

to return to the sub-menu.

5.4.3 Display resolution  'rESn'

The output of the resistance thermometer can be
displayed with high or low resolution as shown
below.   Low resolution can improve the readability
of a noisy or rapidly changing display, but does not
degrade the performance of the 4/20mA analogue
output.  High resolution is only available when the
transmitter is displaying temperature in 

o

C. When 

o

F

is selected the resolution is always one degree.

To check or change the display resolution select
'rESn' from the sub-menu and press 

to reveal the

current setting.  The setting may be changed by
pressing the 

Up

 or 

Down

 button. When the required

resolution has been selected, press 

E

 to return to

the sub-menu.

5.5  For Voltage Inputs

When the transmitter is conditioned for a voltage
input both the input voltage range and the
corresponding display must be programmed.

5.5.1  Position of display decimal point   'd.P.

'

A dummy decimal point can be positioned between
any of the display digits or it may be absent. 

After selecting voltage input from the 'InPut' menu,  
press 

P

  to reveal the 'd.P.' sub-menu. Press 

P

again to display the current decimal point position.
The decimal point can be moved or turned off by
pressing the 

Up

 or 

Down

 push-button, followed by

E

 to return to the sub-menu.

5.5.2  Low input & display calibration  'In-LO'

This function defines the lower voltage input and the
corresponding transmitter display.   See example
below:
 
         

   Input      Transmitter

             mV           Display

-10.00

-3.000

Low input / display

12.55 

3.765

High input / display

The calibration is performed using the internal
references and may be made with any transmitter
input voltage.

Select 'In-LO' from the menu and press 

P

 which will

access a sub-menu containing two functions 'InPut'
and ''dISP'.   

Select the input voltage 'InPut' and press 

P

 which

will cause the specified lower input millivoltage to
be displayed in the form XX.XX The flashing digit of
the input voltage can be changed by pressing the

Up

 or 

Down

 buttons.  When the first digit is correct,

pressing 

P

 will transfer control to the next digit.

When the least significant digit has been adjusted,
press 

E

 to return to the 'InPut' prompt, from which

the display prompt 'dISP' can be selected by
pressing the 

Up

 or 

Down

 button.  

Pressing 

P

 will reveal the transmitter display

corresponding to the specified low input voltage.
The position of the dummy decimal point will be as  
defined by function 'd.P.' - see section 5.5.1

The flashing digit of the display can be changed by
pressing the 

Up

 or 

Down

 buttons.  When the first

digit is correct, pressing 

P

 will transfer control to

the next digit.  When the least significant digit has
been adjusted, press 

E

 to return to the ''dISP'

prompt. 

5.5.3  High input & display calibration  'In-HI'

This function defines the higher voltage input and
the corresponding transmitter display.   See
example below:

         

   Input      Transmitter

             mV           Display

-10.00

-3.000

Low input / display

12.55 

3.765

High input / display
