3.1.11 Step
1.Setup
◆ Press to setup the step parameter in SOURCE mode.
◆ Starting point (Vs) and Ending point (Ve).
1) They cannot be equal (if Vs<Ve, ascend first and Vmin=Vs, Vmax=Ve. If Vs>Ve, descend first and Vmin=Ve, Vmax=Vs).
2) The unit is the same as the unit of Source item.
◆ Step Mode and size. The output values of the steps are calculated as follows:
1) The step size of point number(N), and the output values(n):
Vmin+ (n-1) * ( Vmax-Vmin ) / (N - 1), n = 1,2,… (n-1) ≦ N -1
note: ① The range must be divisible by the step size.
② The step range cannot exceed the range of the calibrator.
③ The step range cannot exceed the control range of the CONTROL SETUP, or the calibrator will prompt the
user to reset the limits.
◆ Stroke mode: select the One Way or the Two Way.
◆ Wait Time:
1) For the auto mode only, the range is 1~3600 seconds.
2) When SOURCE is set to Current the wait time is time between mA steps.
3) When SOURCE is pressure, the wait time is the duration after the pressure has stabilized.

◆ If the operation is canceled or fails, the value of the parameter will be reset.
3.2.4 Service
1. Loop test
◆ Select the predefined value or manually input a value, the range is (4~20) mA, and press / to test. The
ADT761 will then provide a mA source to the transmitter of the selected value. It will then read back the loop in real
time next to the term Loop mA.
◆ The Loop test is not available when the HART device is in multi-drop mode. All Field Devices must be able to operate
in multi-drop with loop current signaling disabled according to the HART Protocol.
2. D/A output trim
◆ Through adjusting the coefficient of current output, the transmitter`s PVAO is consistent with loop mA.
◆ Press / to trim the Zero (DAC Zero) and Span (DAC Gain), or press to put the mA value
measured by calibrator into the Trim Value input box. The range is (4~20) mA.
◆ The trim is not available when the hart device is in multi-drop mode. All Field Devices must be able to operate in
multi-drop with loop current signaling disabled according to the HART Protocol.
3. Zero trim
◆ Reduce the measure to near zero to avoid failure.
4. Re-Range
◆ Support to change the PV/Range unit and pressurize mode (internal pressure source or external pressure source).
◆ Test the pressure transmitter and change the range to adjust the shift of the output current.
◆ Press / to change the LRV/URV, or press to put the PV value into the New LRV/URV input box.
5. Sensor Trim
23
Page 31
◆ Some transmitters do not support the sensor trim function.
◆ A Sensor Trim can involve one or more trim points according to different transmitters.
◆ Support to change the PV unit and pressurize mode (Internal pressure source or External pressure source).
◆ The trim points in the internal pressure source mode cannot exceed the control range of the Control Setup, or the
calibrator will prompt the user to reset limits.
◆ Press / to trim point, or press to put the pressure value sourced by calibrator into the Trim
Value input box.

4.3.1 Checking for leaks
The calibrator must be leak free in order to function properly. Leakage may lead to control errors. A rapid pressure
drop will indicate a leak in the system. Check potential problems as follows:
