2.12.2 Power Up (PUP) Configuration
A provision has been made to store a Power Up (PUP) configuration for the Model 321. This ensures
that it will power up to a user-defined state after power down. Parameters including heater range,
setpoint, gain, reset, units, and curve number are stored in non-volatile memory and preserved even
when the line cord is disconnected.
To view PUP status, press and hold the Enter key for
≈
5 seconds. You will see the following display.
“On” indicates that the power up settings will change when settings on the instrument are made via
the front panel or over the remote interface. “On” is the default PUP condition.
“Off” indicates that updates to the power up memory are disabled and the instrument will power up in
the configuration it was in when the power up feature was turned off.
2.12.3 Power Up Errors
On power up, the Model 321 does a check of the internal memory. There are two potential error
messages. The first is usually recoverable, the second is not. The first error display is shown below.
This indicates than an attempt to read the internal non-volatile RAM for the Model ID was
unsuccessful. In some situations, this error can be corrected by the user by initializing the Model 321
memory. There are three methods that can be used to reinitialize the instrument: (1) Press the
Escape key when the error message is being displayed, (2) hold the Escape key down when the
instrument is off and then turning the instrument on, or (3) holding the Escape key down for more
than 5 seconds. Wait until a message is given before releasing the key.
The second error display is shown below.
This error message indicates that an attempt to write and then read the internal non-volatile RAM was
unsuccessful. This error is not correctable by the user. Please consult the factory.
