decimal points for a few seconds while the new
information is stored in permanent memory.
All new BA578C indicators are supplied calibrated
as requested at the time of ordering. If calibration
is not requested, the transmitter will be set for 3
wire RTD input with 4 to 20mA output correspond-
ing to a display of 0.0°C to 100.0°C.
5.1 Summary of Programme Menu functions
The parameters which may be programmed vary
depending upon which input is selected. For:
Thermocouple and resistance
thermometer inputs
The BA578C transmitter will always display
sensor temperature. Programming allows the
display to be in degrees centigrade or Fahren-
heit, and for the display resolution to be
selected.
Zero and span of the 4/20mA output current
may be programmed to represent any display
range.
Voltage input
The display may be programmed to show the
input voltage in any engineering units.
Zero and span of the 4/20mA output current
may be independently programmed to repre-
sent any displayed value.
Each of the functions in the Programme Menu is
described in the following summary with a cross
reference to more detailed information. Figs 5A
and 5B illustrate the location of each function within
the menu.
