Scaling for the Ratemeter Mode
The Ratemeter mode is ideal if you want to measure Frequency, Speed, Rate of production etc.
You’ll see one digit brighter than
the others - this means you can
change its value with the UP or
DOWN button.
Use DIGIT button to select other
digits.
Select decimal-point with the
DIGIT button if you want to change
the decimal-point position. Move
the decimal-point with UP/DOWN
buttons.
Press OK when you have set the
whole number, to move on to the
next variable
The value you can set for
each of these 3 variables
Frequency In (Hz.)
Display
Averaging
Time-Out (seconds)
○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○
○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○
The scaling method is simple.
Specify a Frequency in Hz and a
reading the display should show for
that Frequency.
For example, if you have a sensor
which gives 200Hz at 5 litres per
minute and you want to measure
flowrate in litres/minute...
F.in
= 200
disp
= 5 or 5.0 or 5.00 depending
on the resolution you want.
Possible values = 0,2,4,8,16,32 and 64
Averaging is useful if the input frequency is not stable. The bigger the averaging number, the
more stable will be the display. Big averaging numbers also make the display respond less
quickly to sudden changes in input frequency. The largest averaging number is 64, which means
that 64 readings will be averaged.
Possible values = 3,10,30 and 60
The time-out function is normally set to 3 seconds. This means that if the input pulses stop for
any reason, the display will hold the last reading for 3 seconds, after which it will go to 0. You can
increase this delay up to 60 seconds.
IMPORTANT
To protect your settings, disconnect the
LOCKOUT link on the input connector.
