Intended Use
The temperature compensated Capacitance Diaphragm Gauges
of the Stripe CDG045Dhs series are intended for absolute
pressure measurement of gases in their respective pressure
ranges (→ 2).
Ideally the measurement values can be read out digitally via
EtherCAT interface or analog. The gauges can also be operated
in connection with an INFICON Vacuum Gauge Controller (VGC
series) or another appropriate controller.
Functional Principle
A ceramic diaphragm is deflected by pressure. The deflection is
measured capacitively and converted into a digital or into an
analog linear output signal by the digital electronics. The digital
output signal can only be read out via the EthreCAT interface.
The output signal is independent of the gas type.
Very accurate pressure measurement is achieved by heating the
sensor to a constant temperature of 45°C which results in a compensation of changes in the ambient conditions and a reduced
deposition of process products and by-products in process applications.

4.2 Zeroing the Gauge
The gauge is factory calibrated while "standing upright" or in
horizontal position (→ "Calibration Test Report").
Perform a zero adjustment, when the gauge is operated
for the first time.
Due to long time operation or contamination, a zero drift could
occur and zero adjustment may become necessary.
For adjusting the zero, operate the gauge under the same constant ambient conditions and in the same mounting orientation
as normally.
The output signal (measuring signal) is depending on the mounting orientation. The signal difference between the vertical and
horizontal mounting orientation is:
*) The gauge is factory calibrated while "standing upright" or in
horizontal position (→ "Calibration Test Report").
If the gauge is operated via a controller, the zero of the
whole measuring s ystem has to be adjusted on the
controller: first, adjust the zero of the gauge and then,
the zero of the controller.
4.2.1 <ZERO> Adjustment
The zero can be adjusted via
• the <ZERO> button on the gauge,
• the diagnostic port (→ [4]),
• the EtherCAT interface (→ [5], [6]),

voltage to pin 10 (pulse → 11),
• an INFICON Vacuum Gauge Controller (VGC series).
While the gauge is being heated and/or under atmos-
pheric pressure, the zeroing function is locked in order
for operating errors to be prevented.
Evacuate the gauge to a pressure according to the table

If the final pressure is too high for zero adjustment (>25%
of the F.S.), the zero cannot be reached and the
<STATUS> LED blinks green. If this is the case, activate
the factory setting and adjust the zero again (→ 34).
Operate the gauge for at least 2 hours (until the signal is
stable).

… apply supply voltage to Remote Zero at pin 10
(pulse → 11).
The zero adjustment runs automatically. The <STATUS>
indicator flashes until the adjustment (duration ≈8 s) is
completed.
After zero adjustment, the gauge automatically returns
to the measurement mode.
The <STATUS> LED blinks green if
• the signal output is negative (< -20 mV) when the final pressure has been attai ned
• the zero adjustment has failed.
4.2.2 <ZERO> Adjustment with Ramp Function
The ramp function allows to adjust the pressure value at a
known reference pressure within the measurement range of the
gauge.
26tina84e1-a (2019-07)
It also permits to adjust an offset of the characteristic curve in
max. ø1.1 mm
Keep the button
depressed
order to
• compensate for the offset of the measuring system or
• obtain a slightly positive zero for a 0 … 10 V AD converter.
The offset should not exceed 5% of the F.S. (+500 mV). At a
higher positive offset, the upper limit of the measurement range
is exceeded.
Zero adjustment using the ramp function can be
performed via
• the <ZERO> button on the gauge,
• the EtherCAT interface (→ [5], [6]),
• the diagnostic port (→ [4]),
Recommended procedure for adjusting the offset of a
measuring system: → Notice 24.
Operate the gauge for at least 2 hours (until the signal is
stable).
Push the <ZERO> button with a pin (max. ø1.1 mm) and
keep it depressed. The <STATUS> LED starts blinking.
After 5 s, the zero adjustment value, starting at the current
output value, keeps continually changing (ramp) until the
button is released or until the setting limit (max. 25% F.S.)
is reached.
tina84e1-a (2019-07)27
• Change of direction (inverse ramp): Release the button.
Press and keep it depressed again within 3 … 5 s (the
flashing frequency of the <STATUS> indicator changes
briefly).
• Fine adjustment: Release the button. Briefly press it
again within 0 … 3 s. The zero adjustment value changes by one unit.
If the <ZERO> button is released for m ore than 5 s, the
gauge returns to the measurement mode.
The <STATUS> LED blinks green if the signal output is negative
(< -20 mV).
4.3 Switching Functions SP1, SP2, ATM, Status
The gauge provides two adjustable and programmable switching
functions, which are independent of each other. A switching
contact is provided for each switching function:
• Vacuum pressure set points SP1 & SP2 (default)
• Atmospheric pressure set point (ATM set point)
• Gauge status
Switching characteristics and hysteresis of the set
points
• Low Trip Point (default)
• High Trip Point
The switching characteristics and the hysteresis of each
set point can only be programmed via the diagnostic
port (→ [4]) and the E therCAT interface (→ [5],
[6]).

4.3.1 Adjusting the Vacuum Pressure Setpoints (SP1 &
SP2)
The two setpoints can be set to any pressure within the measurement range of the gauge.
The thresholds of the setpoints SP1 & SP2 can be
adjusted via
• the buttons on the gauge
• the diagnostic port (→ [4])
• the EtherCAT interface (→ [5], [6]).
The current threshold setting
• is output at the measurement signal output instead of the
pressure signal and can be measured with a voltmeter after
the <SP> button is pressed
• can be read via the diagnostic port (→ [4]) and the
EtherCAT interface (→ [5], [6]).
Adjusting Setpoint <1>
Push the <SP> button with a pin (max. ø1.1 mm). The
30tina84e1-a (2019-07)
Malfunction
If processes are controlled via the signal output,
keep in mind that by pushing an <SP> button the
measurement signal is suppressed and the corresponding threshold value is output instead. This
can cause malfunctions.
Push the <SP> button only if you are sure that no
gauge changes to the switching function mode and outputs
the current threshold value at the measurement value
output for about 10 s (LED <1> blinks).

Press the button
max. ø1.1 mm
Keep the button

For changing the threshold value, push the <ZERO> button
and keep it depressed. The threshold keeps changing from
the current value (ramp) until the button is released or until
the limit of the setting range is reached.
• Change of direction (inverse ramp): Release the button.
Press and keep it depressed again within 3 … 5 s (the
flashing frequency of the <STATUS> indicator changes
briefly).
• Fine adjustment: Release the button. Briefly press it
again within 0 … 3 s. The threshold value changes by

The adjustment procedure is the same as for setpoint SP1.
4.3.2 Programming the ATM Setpoint
The vacuum pressure setpoints SP1 & SP2 can be programmed
to atmospheric pressure setpoint (ATM setpoint) vi a the diagnostic port (→ [4]) or the EtherCAT interface (→ [5], [6]).
Switching characteristics Low / High Trip Point and hysteresis
→ 28.
The threshold value of the ATM setpoint is defined as a factor of
the current atmospheric pressure. The switching contact switches when the pressure in the vacuum system has reached the
defined threshold value.

4.3.3 Programming Gauge Status
The vacuum pressure setpoints SP1 & SP2 can be programmed
to gauge status via the diagnostic port (→ [4]) or the
EtherCAT interface (→ [5], [6]).
The status of the gauge is output as a digital signal.
4.4 Activating the Factory Setting (Factory Reset)
All user defined parameters (e.g. zero, filter) are restored to their
default values.
Loading of the default parameters is irreversible.
Loading the default parameters:
Put the gauge out of operation.
Keep the <ZERO> button depressed for at least 5 s while
the gauge is being put into operation (Power ON).

4.5 Diagnostic Port (USB Interface)
The diagnostic port <DIAG> permits to output the pressure
reading and all status information and to enter all settings at the
same time (→ [4]). A standard USB cable type A/mini B can
be used.
Required software: T-Gauge. Please contact your local INFICON
service center.
4.6 EtherCAT Operation
Data transmission errors
Any attempt to simultaneously operate the gauge
via the EtherCAT interface and the diagnostic port
causes data transmission errors.
Therefore the gauge must not be operated simultaneously via the EtherCAT interface and the diag-
