■ WHAT MUST BE SPECIFIED WHEN ORDERING
Please specify the bargraph scale range and engineering unit. The overvall scale plate design including the number of
divisions, division line length, character font is determined by M-System.
[Example] : Bargraph range 0 to 300 cm
Bargraph scale range: 0 – 300
Engineering unit for the bargraph: cm
■ TYPES OF DIVISIONS
Five (5) types of divisions are used depending upon the scale span, which determined by the following equation:
Scale Span = (Max. range value – Min. range value) x 10
where n = integer (used to limit the calculated scale span to the minimum of 1.1, below 11.0.)
The number of divisions is automatically determined by the scale span.
• Type 1: 1.1 Scale Span < 1.3
Number of divisions: 22 to 25.9
Scale: Starts at 0, increments by 0.02 / 0.2 / 2 / 20 /
200. Min. and max. values indicated. 4 digits
including negative sign and decimal point.
Division lines: Long, Short, Medium, Short, Long
(4 divisions repeated)
• Type 3: 2.0 Scale Span < 2.6
Number of divisions: 40 to 51.9
Scale: Starts at 0, increments by 0.05 / 0.5 / 5 / 50 /
500. Min. and max. values indicated. 4 digits
including negative sign and decimal point.
Division lines: Long, Short, Medium, Short, Medium,
Short, Medium, Short, Medium, Short, Long
(10 divisions repeated)
