Choose this function to provide a simulated RTD signal into controllers, temperature transmitters,
indicators or any input devices that measure thermocouple sensors.
1) Disconnect the RTD sensor from the device to
be calibrated.
2) Select “ SOURCE” with slide switch w .
3) Connect the PIECAL 510B/511B to the device
using 2, 3 or 4 wires matching the connections
of the sensor that was just removed.
The output is adjusted in 0.1° (or 0.01/0.1 ohm)
increments by turning the knob
e while the
EZ-CHECK™ switch q is in the “HI”, “LO” or “SET”
position. Press and turn the knob for faster dialing
with 10° (or 1.00/10.0 ohm) increments.

Storing EZ-CHECK Outputs
Storing HI and LO EZ-CHECK Outputs
Choose this function to provide a simulated RTD signal into controllers, temperature transmitters,
indicators or any other input device that measure thermocouple sensors..
1) Store your high (SPAN) output temperature by moving the EZ-CHECK switch to the HI position
and turn the e EZ-Dial knob until the desired temperature is on the display. Press and hold the
EZ-Dial knob until STORED appears to store the value. Release the EZ-Dial knob.
2) Store your low (ZERO) output temperature by moving the EZ-CHECK switch to the LO position
and turn the e EZ-Dial knob until the desired temperature is on the display. Press and hold the
EZ-Dial knob until STORED appears to store the value. Release the EZ-Dial knob.
3) Instantly output your SPAN and ZERO temperature outputs by moving the EZ-CHECK switch
between HI and LO. You may also select any third temperature output (such as mid-range) using
the SET position on the EZ-CHECK switch.

Two red and two black leads are included with
the calibrator. Each lead has a retractable shield
banana plug on the calibrator end and a spade
lug on the end which will connect to the RTD
input of the device being calibrated.
