Model PD6200 Analog Input Rate/Totalizer
Instruction Manual

Programming the Rate/Totalizer (
prog
)
It is
very important
to read the following information, before proceeding
to program the meter:
•
The meter is factory calibrated prior to shipment to read in milliamps
and volts depending on the input selection. The calibration equip-
ment is certified to NIST standards.
•
Use
the
Scale
menu to scale process inputs (e.g. 4-20 mA). A cali-
brated signal source is not needed to scale the meter.
The
Program
menu contains the following menus:
1. Scale without a signal source
2. Calibrate with a calibrated signal source
3. Total time base & conversion factor
4. Grand total time base & conversion factor
5. Total reset mode for total & grand total
The process inputs may be calibrated or scaled to any display value
within the range of the meter.

Multi-Point Calibration & Scaling
The meter is set up at the factory for 2-point linear calibration. The num-
ber of points for multi-point calibration/scaling is set up in the
Advanced
Features
menu. Up to 32 linearization points may be selected. See page
72 for details.
