DP6060 Dual-Input Process Meter
Instruction Manual
83
Tare (
tare A, tare B
)
The tare function zero’s out the display. In the case of scale weight, tare
is used to eliminate container weight and provide net weight readings.
There are two tare functions; Capture Tare for channel A and B, and
Reset Tare. Display channel indicator letter flashes when a tare is used.
It will flash until the tare is reset.
Gross (without tare) and net (with tare) values can be viewed
simultaneously. See page 44.
Internal Calibration (
ICAL
)
The meter is factory calibrated prior to shipment
to read in milliamps and volts depending on the
input selection. The calibration equipment is
certified to NIST standards.
The use of calibrated signal sources is necessary to perform the internal
calibration of the meter.
Check calibration of the meter at least every 12 months. Each input and
input type must be recalibrated separately.
The
Internal
calibration
menu is part of the
Advanced
Features
menu.
1. Press and hold the Menu button for three seconds to access the
advanced features of the meter.
2. Press the Up
arrow button to scroll to the
Internal calibration
menu
(
ICAL
) and press Enter.
3. Select channel A (
Ch-A
) or channel B (
Ch-b
) and press enter.
Notes:
1. If meter is in operation and it is intended to accept only one input
type (e.g. 4-20 mA), recalibration of other input is not necessary.
2. Allow the meter to warm up for at least 15 minutes before
performing the internal calibration procedure.
