Advanced Display Features
Dual-Line Makes All the Difference
The main display can be programmed to indicate PV,
maximum (peak), minimum (valley), alternating
maximum/minimum, one of four alarm set points, or

input. The second display can be configured
to display the input in a different scale, engineering
units, set points, user defined messages, or simply
turned off.
The ProtEX-MAX's dual-line display makes all the
difference both when programming the instrument
and when using it in the field. When programming the
instrument, the dual-line display prompts for the
needed information and also helps you keep track of
where you are in the setup process. When using the
instrument, the dual-line display provides more
information such as displaying the input in two
different scales like height and volume for a level
application. We call this the Dual-Scale feature.
Programming Assistance
The ProtEX-MAX's dual-line display makes
programming the instrument much easier because the
second display prompts for the needed information
and also helps you keep track of where you are in the
setup process.
The ProtEX-MAX is prompting for the value for Input 2
and displaying the default value of 100 mV
. The “0” is
brighter than the rest of the digits indicating that it is
the number that will be changed by the Up arrow.
The ProtEX-MAX is now prompting for what the user
wants Display 2 to be; that is the value that
corresponds to 100 mV. In this case Display 2 is
currently set to 100.00.
Dual-Scale Display Feature
The ProtEX-MAX PD8-6100 has a rather unique, and
very flexible dual-scale capability; a second scaled
display can represent the measured input in a
different form (i.e. gallons & height). This is of
particular value in weight applications. Please see the
examples shown below.
Volume & Height
Force & mV
Other Uses for Second Line
The second line can also be used indicate units, net
and gross, a tag, or even a setpoint as the following
pictures illustrate:

Net & Gross
mV & Setpoint
Weight & Max (Peak)
Rounding for Steadier Display
The rounding feature is used to give the user a
steadier display with fluctuating signals. It causes the
display to round to the nearest value according to the
rounding value selected (1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, or 100).
For example, with a rounding value of 10, and an
input of 12346, the display would indicate 12350.
Super-Bright Display
The ProtEX-MAX comes standard with a super-bright
display, with LEDs that are visible even in direct
sunlight. The display also has up to eight levels of
adjustable intensity for optimum visibility in any
lighting condition.
