Operation
HI 3001: MASTER DISPLAY
Overview
The HI 3000 Series Master Display (HI 3001) allows the
user to configure, operate and calibrate up to sixteen (16) HI
3000 Series Instruments from the Master Display Front
panel. The unique interface allows the user to select the
instrument and operate the instrument from the Master dis-
play as if the user was operating the selected instrument
itself. When you select the instrument you want, the HI 3001
Master Display virtually becomes that instrument, making
all the instrument’s functionality available to the user. The
Master Display automatically senses and lists all the HI 3000
Instruments connected to the Hardy Control-Link Network.
By pushing the Station button you can move through the list
until the instrument you want to operate is displayed. Simply
push the Enter button and the HI 3000 Station can be oper-
ated from the front panel of the Master Display. By mount-
ing the Master Display in the Control Room or in any
convenient location, you can operate, configure and calibrate
an instrument without having to go to the instrument itself.
Excellent for operating HI 3000 blind remote stations.
Getting Started
Before operating the Hardy HI 3001 Master Display, check
to make sure the following procedures have been performed:

All the features of the Master Display operate the same no
matter what the interface. First let’s get familiar with operat-
ing the Master Display from the front panel of the instru-
ment. (See Fig. 341)
