Set Decimal Points
The decimal point can be set to as many as five decimal places. Use the decimal point feature to position the
decimal point for all displayed values. Placement of the Decimal Point will influence the display’s resolution.
Select the best practical scale for indicating level in your application. For example, setting a scale of 0 to
100% can be shown three different ways. Use the following steps to set the decimal points.
Example #1
0% to 100%
Reads to the ones place with good resolution
Example #2
0.0% to 100.0%
Reads to the 1/10’s place with higher resolution
Example #3
0.00% to 100.00%
Reads to the 1/100’s place with highest resolution

Set Scale Function
A full tank is typically displayed with a value of 20 mA and an empty tank with a value of 4 mA. You can scale
this to any units of full and empty that you desire. The scale factory default is a 2-point linear configuration.
Each point of the 2-point linear configuration has two settings, Input and Display. Input refers to the current
and Display refers to the display value for the current.
Note
: A signal source is not needed to scale the
indicator. Enter the value you wish the 4 mA signal to reflect and the value you wish the 20 mA signal to
reflect with the following steps.
