Step 12 Zero adjustment
This adjustment trims the display to
read exactly -10.0
o
C and the output
current to be exactly 4.000mA when the
type J thermocouple is at -10
o
C. This
can be achieved by cooling the
thermocouple to -10
o
C or by inputting
the voltage which the thermocouple
should theoretically produce. If a
voltage is used the transmitter cold
junction compensation (see section
5.3.4) should be turned off during the
calibration, or the input voltage should
be corrected for ambient temperature,
although this may be less accurate.
With the transmitter displaying the
'ZEro' prompt and the correct input
connected to the transmitter, push
P
which will cause the transmitter to
display the thermocouple temperature.
Adjust the display with the
Up
and
Down
buttons until it is -10.0
Note: Immediately the
Up
or
Down
button is operated the annunicator in the
top left hand corner of the display will
be activated to warn that any change in
the input signal will be ignored while this
display correction is being made.
Operating the
P
push-button will lock
the transmitter display at -10.0
and
allow the output current to be trimmed
using the
Up
or
Down
button. When the
output current measured by a DVM is
4.000mA, the
E
push-button should be
operated to return the transmitter to the
'ZEro' prompt.
This completes calibration at -10.0
o
C.
Step 13 Span adjustment
With the transmitter displaying the
'ZEro' prompt select 'SPAn' by pressing
the
Up
or
Down
button. With the
thermocouple heated to 240
o
C, or an
equivalent voltage input, push
P
which
will cause the transmitter to display the
thermocouple temperature. Adjust the
display with the
Up
and
Down
buttons
until it is 240.0
Note: Immediately the
Up
or
Down
button is operated the annunicator in the
top left hand corner of the display will
be activated to warn that any change in
the input signal will be ignored while this
display correction is being made.
Operating the
P
push-button will lock
the transmitter display at 240.0
and
allow the output current to be trimmed
using the
Up
or
Down
button. When the
output current measured by a DVM is
20.000mA, the
E
push-button should be
operated to return the transmitter to the
'SPAn' prompt.
This completes calibration at 240.0
o
C.
Pressing the
E
push-button again will
return the transmitter to the display
mode.
8. MAINTENANCE
8.1 Fault finding during commissioning
If the BA574C transmitter fails to function during
commissioning the following procedure should be
followed:
Symptom Cause Solution
No display
Incorrect
Check wiring
or output
wiring or no
and power
current
power supply
supply polarity
Check that voltage
between
terminals
5 & 6 is between 10
and 30V with terminal
5 positive.
BA574C
Positive
The transmitter input
displays 1
display
exceeds the upper
over-range
operating range of the
selected THC or RTD.
For voltage inputs,
display is incorrectly
calibrated.
Check calibration.
BA574C
Negative
The transmitter input

is less than the lower
over-range
operating range of the
selected THC or RTD.
For voltage inputs,

calibrated.
Check calibration.
