Broken Sensor Drive:

Determine pen action

Select NONE if the input is not temperature,

otherwise select dEG F or dEG C.

Fault Detection Drive:

Determine maximum
input travel outside engineering range before an
error is detected. E.g. for a 0 to 300°F range, a
10% fault level will trigger at 330°F.

Input Filter:

Adjust the instrument response time
from 0 to 60 seconds in one second increments
to reduce pen jump & dampen out noisy signals.
