Installing the Meter
Transmitters ordered with the LCD meter option (Option Code M5) are
shipped with the meter installed. After-market installation of the meter
on a conventional Model 3144 or 3244MV transmitter requires a small
instrument screwdriver and the meter kit, which includes:
• LCD meter assembly
• Extended cover with cover O-ring in place
• Captive screws (quantity 2)
• 6-pin interconnection header
Use the following procedure to install the meter. Once the meter is
installed, configure the transmitter to recognize the meter option. Refer
to “Meter Settings” on page 3-6.
