[P-C]
PURPOSE
To view and/or change the active piston-cylinder module. In most cases, changing the
piston-cylinder module is equivalent to changing the range.
[P-C] is for selecting the active piston-cylinder module only. Piston-cylinder modules can be
added and deleted and their characteristics can be edited by pressing [SPECIAL] and selecting
<1PC/MS> (see Section 3.11.1).
The active mass set and mass loading bell are selected by pressing [SPECIAL] and selecting
<1PC/MS> (see Section 3.11.1).
PRINCIPLE
To make valid pressure and mass load calculations, PG7000 must know the exact
characteristics of the piston-cylinder module that is currently in use. See Section 7.2 for
detailed information on PG7000 pressure and mass calculations.
Most PG7000s are used with more than one piston-cylinder module. Detailed characteristics
on up to 18 piston-cylinder modules are stored in files. These files can be added, deleted,
viewed and edited by pressing
[SPECIAL]
,
1pc/ms
(see Section 3.11.1).
The P-C function provides rapid access, from any run screen, to viewing the piston-cylinder
modules available and selecting one to be active.
OPERATION
Pressing
[P-C]
activates the piston-cylinder module viewing and selecting function. Pressing
the
[P-C]
key again or
[+/-]
while in the P-C function steps through displays of available
piston-cylinder modules.
When
[P-C]
is first pressed, a summary of the characteristics of the active piston-cylinder
module is displayed, for example:
1.
Nominal pressure to mass conversion coefficient of the piston-
cylinder module that is currently selected (active). This value is
calculated from the effective area of the piston-cylinder and is
in kPa (if < 1 MPa) or MPa. Upgraded Type 5000 piston-
cylinders may be displayed in psi.
2.
Serial number of the active piston-cylinder module.
3.
Current pressure unit of measure.
4. Nominal pressure in current pressure units resulting from
loading all the mass of the active mass set.
5. Nominal pressure in current pressure units resulting from
loading the piston and mass bell only.
Active 10 kPa/kg 247
0.7 to 50 psi
