Setting the Decimal Point (dEc pt)

The decimal point may be set with up to five decimal places or with no
decimal point at all. The rate, total, and grand total decimal points are
independent.
Pressing the Right arrow moves the decimal point one place to the right
until no decimal point is displayed then it moves to the leftmost position.

Programming the Rate/Totalizer (prog)

It is very important to read the following information, before proceeding
to program the meter:

The meter is factory calibrated prior to shipment to read in milliamps
and volts depending on the input selection. The calibration equip-
ment is certified to NIST standards.

 Use

the

Scale

menu to scale process inputs (e.g. 4-20 mA). A

calibrated signal source is not needed to scale the meter.

 Use

the

Calibrate

menu to apply a signal from a calibrator or a

flowmeter.

The Program menu contains the following menus:

1. Scale without a signal source
2. Calibrate with a calibrated signal source
3. Total time base & conversion factor
4. Grand total time base & conversion factor
5. Total reset mode for total & grand total

Note:

The Scale and Calibrate functions are exclusive of each other.

The meter uses the last function programmed. Only one of these me-
thods 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 (Linear) menu
selection prior to scaling and calibration of the meter, see page
78 for details.
The process inputs may be calibrated or scaled to any display value with-
in the range of the meter.
