APPENDIX B: HARDWARE DEFINITION CODE


The Hardware Definition Code is used to represent the hardware installed (input type,
Output 2 type and Output 3 type); this must be compatible with the hardware actually
installed. It can be accessed, with the instrument in Configuration mode, by
simultaneously depressing the DOWN and SCROLL keys. The displays will show
XXXX (where X represents any number) in the upper display and dEFn in the lower
display, where:

the first (left-most) digit is input type:

1 =RTD/Linear mV
2=Thermocouple
3=Linear DC mA
4=Linear DC V

the second digit is Output 1 type:

1=Relay


the third digit is Output 2 type:

0=Output 2 not installed
1 =Relay (Alarm Only)


the fourth digit is Output 3 type:

O=Output 3 not installed
1 =Relay (Alarm 1 only)
2=SSR (not available)
3=DC 0-10V (retransmit only)
4=DC 0-20mA (retransmit only)
5=DC 0-5V (retransmit only)
7=DC 4-2OmA (retransmit only)


The displayed code may be incremented/decremented using the UP/ DOWN keys as
required. The maximum setting available is 4117. For example, the code for a
thermocouple input, Relay Output 1 and Relay Output 3 would be 2101. When the
code is first altered, the code display will flash, until the desired value is displayed and
confirmed by pressing the Reset key.
