• Remove the center screw from the rear of the unit and gently remove the electronics from the housing.

Apply power via the integral cable and run to an appropriate instrument.

• FORCE ZERO -Select the Analog Output Zero Scale ("A-LO) menu item by following the directions in

"FIELD SELECTABLE FEATURES" in Chapter 6. When the display says "DONE", the microprocessor has
forced the analog output to 0 VDC or 4 mA.

• TRIM ZERO -Use the zero potentiometer to trim the analog out- put zero reading (0 VDC or 4 mA).

• FORCE SPAN -Select the Analog Output Full Scale ("A-HI”) menu item by following the directions in

"FIELD SELECTABLE FEATURES" in Chapter 6. When the display says "DONE", the micro- processor
has forced the analog output to 5 VDC or 20 mA.

• TRIM SPAN -Use the span potentiometer to trim the analog output full scale reading (5 VDC or 20 mA).

• Repeat steps 2 through 5 until the zero and span readings are trimmed.

• Turn the unit off, then turn the power supply off and disconnect the "+SUPPLY" of the instrument from the

power supply.

• Insert the electronics back into the housing of the instrument and install the screw into the rear of the

device.

• Connect power supply back to the instrument and apply power to verify operation. Trimming of the analog

output is now complete.
