Programming the Meter (
PRoG
)
It is
very important
to read the following information, before proceeding to program
the meter:
There
is
no need to recalibrate
the meter for milliamps when first received
from the factory.
The meter is
factory calibrated
for milliamps prior to shipment. The calibration
equipment is certified to NIST standards.
Use
the
Scale
menu to enter the default 2-point scaling without a signal source - or
Use
the
Calibrate
menu to apply a signal from a calibrator or a flowmeter for the
default 2-point scaling.
Note: The Scale and Calibrate functions are exclusive of each other. The meter
uses the last function programmed. Only one of these methods can be
employed at a time. The Scale and Calibrate functions can use up to 32 points
(default is 2). The number of points should be set in the Advanced menu under
the
Multi-Point Linearization (
lnear
)
menu selection prior to scaling and
calibration of the meter, see page 31 for details.
Additional parameters, not needed for most applications, are viewed and
programmed with the
Advanced
features menu, see Advanced Features Menu
page 28.
