Increments
(1)
The LCOM display unit (logic common) automatically switches the digital pressure output to a scale, which has
60000 as the full scale output. The output will have a decimal point in the same position as it was in the original
psi scale. For example, when a 10 psia device is switched to DU=LCOM, the full scale digital pressure output will
be 60.000, instead of 10.000. Also, a 500 psi device will output full scale 600.00 instead of 500.00. PFS
generally provides the highest readout resolution available when using the RDD100 readout.

2.7 Verifying Stored Parameters
After cycling power to the transducer the RDD100 should now display pressure readings in the selected display
units. If there is a need to interrogate the transducer to observe its set-up parameters, this can be done using the
following sequence:
Type *99du<cr>
Resp *99DU=INHG
(If transducer is set to read inches of mercury)
Although the Display Units example was used, this method of interrogation will work with any of the set up
parameters, listed above and in the associated User’s Manuals.
Note: Since pressure units are not a part of the RDD100 display, the user may want to attach a sticker or some other
indication of the pressure units either on or near the display window.
