This instrument has left the factory in flawless technical safety condition. In
order to maintain this condition, as well as to assure hazard-free operation,
the user must observe all notes and warnings which are contained within the
operating instructions. If, due to damage, it can no longer be assumed that
hazard-free operation is possible, the instrument must be removed from ser-
2 GOSSEN Müller & Weigert
vice. It must be assumed that the instrument can no longer be safely operated if damage is visibly apparent. Before placing the measuring instrument
into service, make sure that it has been properly equipped for the required
measuring task (correct power supply, inputs and outputs). The instrument
version and any possible options are identified on the serial plate. If covers are
opened or parts are removed from the instrument, voltage conducting parts
may be exposed. Balancing, maintenance and repair of live, open instruments
may only be performed by trained personnel who are familiar with the dangers
involved.
1Applications
The easy to program DIGEM 96 x 48 B5 digital indicator is a high precision
panel mount instrument with adjustable display range. The display range can
even be matched to the 4 to 20 mA and 0 to 20 mA measuring ranges after it
has been installed without the use of a calibrator. The measuring instrument is
thus suited for applications, for which on-site adjustments to the display
range are frequently required.
The instrument can optionally be provided with two limit values. Limit value
violations are signalled optically by means of two LEDs at the right-hand side
of the digital display. Furthermor e, each limit value is assigned to a relay with a
changeover contact.
The measurement input is of modular design. It can be used for the following
measuring tasks depending upon the utilized measuring module:
•Direct current, 0 ... 20 mA and 4 ... 20 mA
•Direct current, 4 ... 20 mA, with power supply for 24 V / 20 mA 2-wire
measuring transducer
•Temperature measurement with Pt 100
•Direct voltage from ± 60 mV to ± 200 V
•Direct current from ± 2 mA to ± 200 mA
•Alternating voltage from 0.2 V to 700 V
•Alternating current from 2 mA to 200 mA
2Mounting
First set the measuring instrument into the panel cutout from the front without
the fastening tabs. The fastening tabs are then inserted from the rear into the
slots provided for this purpose at the side panels, and are squeezed against
the control panel.

Press the P and ⇑ keys simultaneously in order to enter the programming
mode. The parameter designation and the corresponding value blink alternately. The longer the arrow key is pressed and held, the faster the value is
changed. The currently displayed value is not saved until the next parameter
is selected by pressing the P key.
Range matching for 0 / 4 – 20 mA and for Pt100 sensors depends upon the measuring
module, and may only be selected if the corresponding measuring module is utilized
(see specifications on the serial plate).
5.1Display Brightness
Display brightness can be adjusted with the “bri” parameter. Brightness can
be set within a range of 0 to 7. It is set to a default value of 5 at the factory.
5.2Measuring Range Matching for 0 – 20 mA and 4 – 20 mA
The parameters AA and AE allow for the entry of a display range without any
additional calibration.
5.3Measuring Range Matching for Pt100 Temperature Sensor
This selection allows for the display of temperatures in either ˚C or ˚F, and
determines whether 2/4-wire or 3-wire connection is used for the temperature
sensor.
5.4Measuring Range Matching with HCAL (hardware calibration)
This selection allows for adjustment through the use of a calibrator. The input
quantities for the lower and upper measuring range values must be applied to
the measuring instrument’s input during adjustment.
Apply the value which corresponds to the lower measuring range value to the
measurement input. Select the ZErO parameter and enter the value which
corresponds to the lower measuring range value.
Apply the value which corresponds to the upper measuring range value to the
measurement input. Select the SPAn parameter and enter the value which
corresponds to the upper measuring range value.
Save the selected values to memory with the P key. The measuring instrument automatically calculates offset and multiplier, and saves these values to
memory.
Attention: If values which lie outside of the setting range result from the calculation of offset or multiplier, the message ErrP appears and the incorrect entry
blinks (e.g. SPAn).
10 GOSSEN Müller & Weigert
5.5Measuring Range Matching with PCAL (software calibration)
Adjustment is performed without a calibrator for measuring range matching
with PCAL by calculating the offset magnitude and the multiplication factor.
Offset and multiplier are then set directly in digital format.
Offset Calculation (OFSt)
The offset value is the number of digits by which the display is offset from the
“normal” zero point. The offset value is calculated with the following equation
and does not take any possible decimal point into consideration:
OffsetAA
AA = lower display range value SA = lower signal range value (lower input range value)
AE = upper display range value SE = upper signal range value (upper input range value)
SA (AE AA)–×
–=
-------------------------------SE SA–
Multiplier Calculation (SCAL)
The display range is matched to the input signal range with the SCAL multiplier. The calculation is based upon the following equation:
SE
SCAL
Example:
Assuming the measuring instrument is configured as follows:
0 ... 10 V signal range corresponds to a display range of 0.0 ... + 100.0.
Configuration needs to be changed to the following:
2 ... 10 V signal range corresponds to a display range of – 10.0 ... + 100.0.
This results in the following:
