Table 6: The main menue
6.4.2 Menue "Quick Setup"
In Quick Setup, basic configuration options are combined to make it possible to quickly
configure key functions. All functions of the quick setup can also be found at another position in the menue tree.
The following functions are available in the Quick Setup menue:
Menue entry Description
Language Select menue language
Pressure unit Select unit for measured pressure (see 6.4.4.1)
Lower range val. Setting of the pressure value that should correspond to 4 mA
(start of range) (see 6.4.5.3)
Upper range val. Setting of the pressure value that should correspond to 20 mA
(end of range) (see 6.4.5.3)
Damping Setting the damping of the output signal (see 6.4.5.1)
Device ID Setting the device ID (see 6.4.9.1)
Table 7: "Quick-Setup" menue

BA_080 Rev 1J8 Pressure transmitter PASCAL CV4 Page 14/24
6.4.3 Menue "Adjustment"
The following functions are available for the pressure adjustment:
Menue entry Description
Zero point Set device at ambient pressure to zero (0 bar rel)
(not with absolute pressure devices)
Position correct. Correct zero point error due to installation position
(not with absolute pressure devices)
Lower adjust. Offset correction with applied reference pressure
Upper adjust. Span correction with applied reference pressure
Table 8: "Pressure Adjustment" menue
Additionally, you can perform a current adjustment (see 6.4.3.4).
6.4.3.1 Zero-point correction
The zero-point correction requires a non-pressurized pressure port e.g. during calibration
in the lab. When executing this function the applied pressure will be interpreted as zero bar
relative pressure.
The zero point correction results in an offset of the whole characteristic curve. Therefore it
is a special case of the lower adjustment (see below).
6.4.3.2 Position correction
Using the function "Position correction", you can correct the offset error due to the installation position independent of the zero-point offset.
In the corresponding submenue, you will find the following entries:
Menue entry Description
Pos.corr. on/off Activate/deactivate position correction
Pos.corr. adjust. Correct position error at ambient pressure
Table 9: "Position Correction" submenue
When you set the position correction, it will be activated automatically. You can deactivate
the position correction, for instance for a subsequent calibration to check the zero point
independently from the installation position.
6.4.3.3 Upper and lower adjustment
The lower adjustment results in an offset of the characteristic curve. It thus affects zero
and span of the measuring range.
The upper adjustment changes the slope of the characteristic curve by correcting the span
of the measuring range.
Execute the lower adjustment prior to the upper adjustment for a correct full adjustment.

Figure 8: Effect of the upper and lower adjustment on the characteristic curve
You can perform the upper and lower adjustment at any reference pressure level. For instance, you can perform the lower adjustment of a -1…4 bar rel device at -900 mbar rel.
The reference pressure level for the upper offset can also be freely chosen. To ensure that
the adjustment is as precise as possible, the upper and lower adjustment should be performed as close as possible to the lower range value and upper range value of the measurement ranges.
6.4.3.4 Current adjustment
You can use the current adjustment, if the reading at the end of the measurement chain
(re-converted current value) does not correspond to the measured pressure. With this
function you can compensate deviations in the output stage as well as the downstream
measurement chain.
Proceed as follows (example for 4 mA):
− Select function "Current adjust." –> "Adjust. 4 mA"
− Use "OK" to activate constant current mode (4 mA). CAUTION! The output current
value now no longer corresponds with the measured pressure! This is indicated by
the icon "Function check" (see 6.2.3).
− Read the displayed current value at the end of the measurement chain.
− Enter this current value (e.g. 3.996) at the device. The device now corrects the cur-
rent output so that 4 mA are shown at the end of the measurement chain.
When leaving the function, the constant current mode is disabled and the current value
corresponds again to the measured pressure.

6.4.4.2 Submenue "Display mode"
In the "Display mode" submenue, you configure the representation of the measured values
and additional information on the display.
With the menue item “Screen layout” you configure the information that is displayed and its
layout. Up to four values can be displayed at the same time. In the additional menue entries "1st value" to "4th value" you define the contents of the placeholders in the layout.
The various layouts as well as the possible content of the values are described in Chapter
6.2.4.
6.4.5 Menue "Measurement/Output"
Configure the measured value as well as the current output in the "Measurement/output"
menue.
Menue entry Description
Damping Setting the damping of the output signal
Output function Setting the output function (linear, inverse)
Lower range val. Setting the pressure value that shall correspond to 4 mA (start of
range)
Upper range val. Setting the pressure value that shall correspond to 20 mA (end of
range)
Alarm current Select the alarm current: High (>21 mA) or low (<3.6 mA)
Minimum current Limit of the lower output current (3.8…4.0 mA)
Maximum current Limit of the upper output current (20…21 mA)
Table 13: "Measurement/Output" menue
Independent from the setting of the minimum and maximum current limit, the set measuring range always corresponds to a current range of 4…20 mA.
6.4.5.1 Setting the damping
Using an adjustable damping you can eliminate fast pressure changes or peaks from having direct influence to the output signal. The set value in seconds corresponds to the time
constant of an exponential rise. After a sudden pressure change, it takes the damping time
to reach 63.2% of the actual pressure at the output. After the damping time has elapsed
three times, 95% of the pressure is reached.

6.4.5.2 Output function
You can set the output function proportionally rising to the measured value (selection "Linear") or proportionally falling (selection "Inverse").
6.4.5.3 Setting the measurement range
You can freely set the lower and upper range value within the nominal range of the device.
Please note that when the turndown is increased, the measurement error also increases. If
you use a very small range you must therefore accept a significant measurement error.
We recommended a maximum turndown of 10:1.
The lower range value must be below the upper range value. For an inverse characteristic
curve, select the output function setting “inverse”.
6.4.5.4 Minimum and maximum current
In the standard setting, the current output is limited at 3.8 and 20.5 mA, meaning a further
drop or rise in the measured variable does not change the current. You can freely select
these current limits for the lower limit between 3.8 and 4 mA and for the upper limit between 20 and 21 mA.

6.4.7 Menue "Simulation"
In the "Simulation" menue, you can simulate the pressure as well as the current to test the
subsequent measuring chain.
Menue entry Description
Current sim. Setting a fixed current value
Pressure sim. Setting a fixed pressure value
Table 15: "Simulation" menue
The current simulation influences only the current output. The pressure simulation takes all
settings into consideration, including the damping.

6.4.8 Menue "Communication"
In the "Communication" menue the settings for the HART communication are summarised.
Menue entry Description
HART address Setting the HART address for device identification in multi-drop
mode
Current mode Setting the current mode (proportional/constant)
HART data Display of HART information (HART-Tag, HART-Descriptor etc.)
Send-preambles Setting of the number of send-preambles for
HART communication
Table 16: "Communication" menue
6.4.8.1 HART address
This address corresponds with the short address which is used for the HARTCommunication. It can be set within a range of 0 to 63. Please note, that setting the short
address between 1 and 63 will not automatically activate the constant current mode. This
must be done under the menue “Current mode” (see 6.4.8.2).
6.4.8.2 Current mode
The current mode determines whether the output current of the device is set to respond
proportionally to the measured value (selection “proportional”) or whether it should remain
constant at 4 mA (selection “constant”). When the current mode “constant” is in use, the
measurement value can only be read using HART-commands (e.g. for HART-multidropoperation).
6.4.9 Menue "System"
In the "System" menue, device-relevant functions are summarised.
Menue entry Description
Device ID Setting the device ID (e.g. to display a free-text in the display)
Device data Display of device data, such as from measured value display (see
6.2.1)
Factory reset Reset to factory settings
Device reset Restarting the device (such as after a power outage)
Table 17: "System" menue

6.4.9.1 Device ID
Using the device ID, you can show a custom text in the display if you configure the display
mode accordingly (see 6.2.4). For instance, you can show the tag number continuously in
the display.
The device ID can be up to 16 characters long and consist of numbers, empty spaces,
capital letters and special characters.
For the selection, the characters are arranged in the order shown below. From the end of
the list (special character "@"), you are automatically guided back to the start (number
"0").
Character set:
0123456789 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_!“#$%&‘()*+,-./:;<=>?@
6.4.9.2 Factory reset
When carrying out a factory reset, all parameters are set to the state at the time of delivery. This also includes the pressure and current adjustment. Exceptions are the following
operational parameters: “Min/max values”, “HART change counter” and “operation hours”.
