Setting the Decimal Point (
dEc pt
)
The decimal point may be set to as many as five decimal places. Use
the Decimal Point feature to position the decimal point for all values
displayed. Placement of the decimal point can influence the displayed
output of your process. For example, setting a scale of 0 to 100% can
be shown in four different methods:
Method #1
0% to 100%
Reads to the ones place and is not very
accurate.
Method #2
0.0% to 100.0%
Reads to the 1/10's place and provides good
accuracy.
Method #3
0.00% to 100.00%
Reads to the 1/100's place. The accuracy is very
good but may not be practical.
Method #4
0.000% to 100.000%
Reads to the 1/1000's place. This is highly
accurate but may not be practical.
When selecting a decimal point, take into account the practical scale for
reading the level of liquid.
