Figure 14: Opto-isolated open collector connections

Both outputs have a maximum current capacity of 100 mA and require a pull-up resistor The value of the pull-up resistor is

dependent on the supply voltage and the maximum current required by the load device

Flow 20 mA (Fl=20MA)

Basic Function

When the display is operated using loop power, the flow rate that corresponds to 20 mA must be set This setting normally

represents the maximum rate of the flow sensor connected to the display but other entries are possible
At the flow at 20 mA Fl=20mA prompt, press the ENTER button once The current setting begins to flash If the current setting

is correct, press the ENTER button to advance to the next parameter
If the current setting requires a change, use the

arrow button, increment the display digit until it matches the first digit of

the desired maximum flow value Next press the

► arrow button to advance to the next digit and using the ▲ arrow button,

increment the second display digit until it matches the second digit of the desired value Repeat this step until the maximum

flow at 20 mA is entered Press the ENTER button once to save the new flow value

4-20 mA Calibration (4-20Cal)

Extended Function

This menu item allows the fine adjustment of the Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) that controls 4-20 mA output The

4-20 mA output is calibrated at the factory and under most circumstances does not need to be adjusted If the output

needs to be adjusted for whatever reason the 4-20 mA calibration procedure is used
The DAC used in the ER-500 is an 12 bit device so the valid entries range from 0 to 4095

4 mA ADJUSTMENT (4mA Out)

To set the 4 mA value, connect an ammeter in series with the loop power supply as shown in

Figure 15

At the 4-20Cal

prompt, press the ENTER button once The display now shows a steady "NO" indication Press the

arrow button to

change to a YES display and then press the ENTER button The 4 mA DAC setting is typically between 35 and 50 Using

the

▲ and ► arrow buttons while monitoring the ammeter, adjust the 4 mA value to obtain a 4 mA reading on the

ammeter The

arrow button increases the DAC value and the ► arrow button decreases the DAC value. When a

steady 4 mA reading is obtained on the ammeter, press the ENTER button to lock in this value and move to the

20 mA adjustment
