How To Set the Sensor Full Scale Entry
To configure the 670 instrument to work with a pressure transducer, you need to select the sensor
range and pressure unit. You should check the label on your transducer to determine both the
sensor range and pressure unit used to calibrate the transducer. Be sure that the pressure unit
entry is set to the unit used to calibrate the transducer before you set the sensor range entry.
Once the sensor range is set correctly, you may change the pressure unit entry at any time. The
pressure unit entry effects the displayed reading as well as the reading reported by remote
communications.
1. Press the [
SETUP
] key.
The system responds by displaying a setup screen.
2. Repeatedly press either arrow key ( [
] or [
] ) to scroll to the pressure unit
screen.
The system responds by scrolling through the setup screens.

3. Use the Adjust knob to scroll through the various pressure units and select the unit used
to calibrate the transducer full scale value.
The label on your transducer should list the units used to calibrate the transducer.
4. Press the down arrow key ( [
] ) to scroll to the sensor range screen.
The system responds by scrolling to the sensor range screen.

5. Enter the correct sensor range by using the [
CURSOR
] key to position the cursor on
each digit, and then turn the Adjust knob to vary the value of each digit.
The system responds by accepting the new full scale value (if the selection has changed).
6. Press either arrow key ( [
] or [
] ) to move to another screen.
If you prefer to display the pressure reading in a unit other than the unit used to calibrate
the transducer, select the pressure unit screen to change the pressure unit.
7. Once the 670 instrument is fully configured, press the [
SETUP
] key to return to the
pressure display screen.
