ITEM DESCRIPTION
1 –.8.8.8.8.8. or 8.8.8.8.8.8.
6-digit, 14 segment, alphanumeric 0.54” high LED display with programmable decimal point.
2 SETPOINT LED
These LEDs, labeled 1 through 4, display the status of setpoints 1, 2, 3 (Alarm 1), and 4 (Alarm 2).
3 SETPTS BUTTON
This button functions only in the run mode. When the Setpoint/Alarm features are unlocked, pressing this button sequentially recalls the previous setpoint settings to the display. After the ‘MIN’ and ‘MAX’ buttons are used to alter those values as desired, pressing the ‘SETPTS’ button, again, stores these new values.
Unless the ‘SETPTS’ button is pressed, each of the four setpoint values is displayed for approximately 10 seconds after the last press of the ‘SETPTS’ button. Holding the ‘SETPTS’ button depressed stalls this automatic sequence, retaining the most recent setpoint number on the display.

ITEM DESCRIPTION
4 /MAX BUTTON
During run mode, pressing this button displays the “HI RDG” (peak reading) value that has occurred up to the moment the
‘MAX’ button is pressed. This peak reading flashes, to distinguish its value from the current readings. Since this is a dynamic peak reading, the value will change if the value increases while reviewing it.
To return to display of the current readings without resetting the peak-value memory to zero (0), press the ‘MAX’ button once again.
To reset the peak-value memory (start a new peak determining period), press the ‘RESET’ button once.
During the configuration mode, the ‘MAX’ button is used to change the numerical value of the flashing digit displayed. For submenu items, such as “L1C.1=0”, pressing the ‘MAX’ button toggles the choice from “0” to “1”.
The meter allows rapid changes of a displayed numerical value by making “0” the first value to occur when the ‘MAX’ button is pressed. After that, the numbers increase to “9” and then roll over to “0” again. A negative (“–”) symbol may be displayed in the most significant digit (i.e. the digit at the far left such as shown here “–.8.8.8.8.8.”)
In the SETPT (SETPOINT) mode (SP1, SP2, etc), pressing the ‘MAX’ button causes the flashing digit to increment by 1 from 0 to 9.
5
/MIN BUTTON
During run mode, pressing the ‘MIN’ button recalls the “LO RDG” (valley reading) measured since the last press of the ‘RESET’ button. This lowest value flashes, to distinguish it from the current process display. Since this is a dynamic valley reading, the value will change if the value decreases while reviewing it.

ITEM DESCRIPTION
To return to the actual process display, without resetting the low­value memory, press the ‘MIN’ button once again.
To reset the memory for current-value readings (start a new observation period), press the ‘RESET’ button once and the meter will return to the run mode.
In the configuration mode, once in a submenu (like input type) the ‘MIN’ button allows you scroll through the available choices such as, 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA, etc.
In the SETPT mode, the ‘MIN’ button advances the flashing digit to the right.
6 MENU BUTTON
In the run mode, this button terminates the measurement process and allows you to enter the configuration mode, advancing through the configuration menus.
In the configuration mode, this button will store changes in the non-volatile memory at the same time advancing the display to the next menu item.
7 RESET BUTTON
In the run mode, pressing the ‘RESET’ button once erases the memories of peak (“HI RDG”), valley (“LO RDG”), and ALARM latches. The display then returns to the run mode.
WARNING: Pressing the ‘RESET’ button two (2) times will result in a hard reset of the meter. This will clear the Peak & Valley, Alarm latches and meter reading and immediately begin a new measurement.
In the configuration mode, pressing the ‘RESET’ button once, displays the previous selection. For example, if you were in “IN CNF” then pressed the ‘RESET’ button once, the display will then show “RD.SC.OF”. Press the ‘RESET’ button two times to return to the run mode.

5.1 CONDITIONS REQUIRING DISASSEMBLY
You may need to remove the sleeve or open the meter for several reasons:
1. To inspect the rating label on the case (not the same label as on the sleeve) (Section 5.2.1).
2. To check or change the 115 V ac or 230 V ac or main board jumpers (Sections 5.2.2 and 5.2.4).
3. To install optional output board(s) (Section 5.2.3).
4. To mount the meter in a panel (Section 5.2.5).
5.2 ASSEMBLY/DISASSEMBLY OPENING
OPENING THE METER
Your meter is fully assembled, but not wired. See Section 7 for wiring connection for power and sensor inputs. In most cases, if you have ordered optional boards with the meter, these boards will already be installed.
You will need to remove only the rear cover to complete wiring, but you will have to open the meter to do one or more of the following:
WARNING!: You must disconnect and turn-off the power and connector signals before accessing the unit and installing optional boards. Failure to do so may result in injury!
a. Check or reconfigure the Transformer Jumpers on the Main Board so
that they correspond to your line voltage (W1 and W2 for 115 V ac, or W3 for 230 V ac). See Section 5.2.2.
b. Install optional boards. See Section 5.2.3.
c. Access jumpers on the Main and optional boards. See Section 5.2.4.

5.2.5 PANEL-MOUNT ASSEMBLY
The meter can be mounted in a panel so that the front of the meter is flush with the vertical panel surface. Panel mounting can be seen as simply “sandwiching” the panel between the inner case and the outer sleeve in the last phases of assembly. Figure 5-14 shows the panel cutout dimensions, and the dimensions for the panel thickness. It requires that the following already be done:
1. Your line voltage rating has been checked against the meter rating on the Product ID and serial number label on the meter case. See Section
5.2.1.
2. You have configured all jumpers–those on the main board as well as those on any optional boards. See Section 5.2.2 for main board jumper configuration and the appropriate sections for optional board jumper configuration.
3. You have installed all optional boards and inserted the main board assembly back into the case. See Section 5.2.3.
4. You have wired P1, the AC power connector, and P2 the input output control connector; connectors are not installed in the meter, but are ready to be installed. See Section 7.
5. You have wired all connectors for optional boards; connectors are not connected to the meter, but are ready to be installed.
If all of these steps are done, use Figure 5-14 as a guide:
CAUTION: Connectors with the wiring connections will be installed after mounting the unit.

WARNING: Do not “turn-on” the ac power and input signals until all connections are connected to the meter.
11. Set P1, the AC power connector, aside and connect or reconnect all other connectors to the back of the meter using Figures 4-3 and 4-4 in Section 4.2 as guides.
Connect P1 last.
NOTE: The P1 connector is “keyed”; it is shaped in such a way that it fits only the J1 male pins.
12. Replace the rear protective cover and secure it with the cover mounting screw.
Your meter is now ready for operation and you can turn-on the power.
The meter display should light, and pass through “RESET 2” to run or display mode. If the meter flashes an overscale or overload message, press the ‘MENU’ button to advance to the configuration mode. Do not be concerned about overloads (the +S input can stand 120 V continuously and current inputs can handle ten times rated current).

6.1 INTRODUCTION
This section is for the configuration and setup of your jumper positions for readrate, unipolar or bipolar signal input, sensor input signal jumpers, sensor excitation jumpers, pushbutton lockouts and lockout of lockout configuration menus.
6.2 S1 JUMPER POSITIONS FOR READRATE AND UNIPOLAR OR BIPOLAR INPUT(S)
The typical readrate for your meter is 3/per second. This requires that no jumper has been installed in the S1A position and Input Configuration (“IN CNF”) bit “INP.2” has been set to equal “0”. Your meter is capable of a fast readrate of 13/per second. This requires that you install a jumper in the S1A position and the Input Configuration (“IN CNF”) bit “INP.2” has been set to equal “1”. Refer to Figure 6-1 for the location of the S1 jumpers.
The typical setting for your meter is unipolar. For unipolar input, no jumper is installed in the S1B position and Input Configuration (“IN CNF”) bit “INP.3” must be set to equal “0”. For bipolar inputs, install a jumper in S1B and set Input Configuration (“IN CNF”) bit “INP.3” to equal “1”.
6.3 S2 JUMPER POSITIONS FOR INPUT RANGES
The following are the input signal jumper positions required to be installed in the “S2” position on your meter for the CURRENT or VOLTAGE input ranges you require. These jumper positions include those that are required for sen­sor excitation. Jumpers S2-N & S2-T are for either 10 Vdc or 24 Vdc sensor excitation. To select desired excitation see Section 6.4. Refer to Figure 6-1 for the location of the S2 jumpers.

METHOD FOR SCALING THE METER TO DISPLAY IN ENGINEERING UNITS
8.1 INTRODUCTION
There are two basic methods for scaling your meter to display engineering units; scaling by using measured input values or scaling without connecting a sensor using assumed input values. Both methods use the Input Scale and Offset (“IN.SC.OF”) method.
8.2 SETUP METER INPUT TYPE AND RANGE
If you have received your meter setup for your required input and do not require changes or rescaling, skip this section entirely and proceed with the normal use of your meter.
If you received your meter and you only require a scaling change, proceed with the steps in Section 8.3.
If you received your meter and it has been configured for input other than what you require, you must proceed with the following steps before rescaling the display:
WARNING: You must set your jumper positions at the S1 and S2 positions BEFORE proceeding. Refer to Section 6 for jumper positions.

PRESS IF REQUIRED) SHOWS COMMENTS ‘MENU’ “INPUT” Press the ‘MENU’ button until
the display shows “INPUT”.
‘MIN’ “VOLT” Press the ‘MIN’ button and the
display will show some type of input such as “VOLT”.
‘MAX’ “CURRNT” Press the ‘MAX’ button until
or the display shows a flashing “VOLT” input type that you want such or as “CURRNT”, “VOLT” “POT” or “POT”.
‘MENU’ “CURRNT” Press the ‘MENU’ button to
store you selection. The display will momentarily show “STORED” only if a change has been made and then will display your
selection such as “CURRNT”. For Current Inputs: ‘MAX’ “4-20 mA” Press the ‘MAX’ button and
or the display shows a flashing “0-20 mA” input range of 4-20 mA, or
“0-20 mA.” Press the ‘MAX’
button to select the 4-20 mA
input range. For Voltage Inputs: ‘MAX’ Unipolar Press the ‘MAX’ button and
“100 mV”, the display will show a “1 V”, flashing input voltage range “10 V”, “100 V”
Bipolar “50 mV”, “500 mV”, “5 V”, “50 V”
For Potentiometer Input: No input range is selected.
‘MENU’ “STORED” Press the ‘MENU’ button to
then store your selection. The “RDG.CNF”
display will momentarily show
“STORED” only if a change has
been made and then “RDG.CNF”
You are now ready to proceed with Input Scale and Offset (“IN.SC.OF”)

8.3 SCALING YOUR METER USING 2-COORDINATE INPUT SCALE AND OFFSET (IN.SC.OF) WITH SENSOR CONNECTED TO YOUR METER
The most accurate method for scaling your meter to display engineering units is by connecting your sensor to your meter, apply two known loads, record them as INPUT1 and INPUT2 respectively and use these numbers for entry into 2-coordinate Input Scale and Offset (“IN.SC.OF”).
The typical factory calibration and configuration is for the meter to accept a 4-20 mA dc and scaled to display 0 to 020000.
An example would be a 2-wire transmitter that sends a signal of 4-20 mAdc. With a signal input of 4 mA the display will show “000000” and with a signal input of 20 mA this display will show “02000”. However, the output signal from your transmitter may be something like 3.98 mA and 19.99 mA. Using Input Scale and Offset (“IN.SC.OF”) you can configure your meter to accurately display your required engineering units.
NOTE: Although the full span input of your sensor signal is preferred for maximum resolution, you may record any two points within the signal span for scaling accurately into engineering units.
The following will walk you step by step in configuring your meter for scaling your meter using the Input Scale and Offset (“IN.SC.OF”) procedure.

voltage or potentiometer inputs. ‘MIN’ “INP.6=0” Press the ‘MIN’ button until
or the display “INP.6=0” or “INP.6=1” “INP.6=1”.
‘MAX’ “INP.6=1” Press the ‘MAX’ button until the
display shows “INP.6=1” to
enable Input Scale and Offset
(“IN.SC.OF”). ‘MENU’ “IN.SC.OF” Press the ‘MENU’ button to

display will momentarily show
“STORED” then “IN.SC.OF”.
If you need to re-scale your meter, you must proceed with the following steps:
Page 49

Scaling to Display Engineering Units

8.3.2 SCALING YOUR METER WITH YOUR SENSOR CONNECTED
Before proceeding, you must first apply a low input (“INPUT1”) and a high input (“INPUT 2”) into your meter and record the exact display shown. As explained in Section 8.3, the display you will be recording will be 0 and 100000 if your meter has not been changed from the typical factory setup and calibration. The following is an example using the numbers below as the recorded input displayed on the meter. You should use the numbers you have recorded:
Low input: 4 milliamps Meter display (“INPUT 1”): 000000. High input: 20 milliamps Meter display (“INPUT 2”): 020000.
Note: If you are using an input signal that is reverse acting (e.g. 20-4 mA), then the 20 mA reading would be “INPUT1” and the 4 mA reading would be “INPUT 2”.
In addition to recording your display readings for your two inputs, you must also decide what you want these inputs to display on your meter.
In order to simplify this (especially if you want to display numbers to the right of the decimal point position), you should think of your meter as a process indicator and your decimal point as being passive or cosmetic.
As an example, if you wanted your display to read 0.000 to 68.000, you would record and enter your “READ 1” number as 000000. and your “READ 2” number as 068000. Then after storing these numbers, you would then place your decimal point position (refer to Section 8.3.4) so that your display would show 0.000 to 68.000.
Record your “INPUT1” and “READ 1” numbers, and your “INPUT2” and “READ 2” numbers, record them below and proceed as follows:
INPUT1 = ________________ 000003.
READ 1 = ________________ 000000.
INPUT2 = ________________ 020018.
READ 2 = ________________ 068000.
For the purpose of this example, we will use the numbers described above for the following procedure:

Your meter is now calibrated. If you need to offset your zero reading on your meter after calibration, you must proceed with the following steps:
Page 53
43
Scaling to Display Engineering Units
8
8.3.4 ENTERING ZERO OFFSET NUMBERS
The RDG OF (Reading Offset) menu item should be used if the meter shows a nonzero reading with zero input. The offset value zeroes the display by canceling out the nonzero reading.
If your meter displays a positive reading at zero input, you must enter a negative offset value. If your meter displays a negative reading at zero input, you must enter a positive offset value.
If you are using an active decimal point (RDG.2=0), your offset value will be the negative of the display reading at zero point.
If you are using the more common independent decimal point (the factory setting, RDG.2=1), follow these instructions display reading to the appropriate offset value:
1. Note the display reading at zero input, ignoring the decimal point. This reading represents the count value - the number of whole counts that need to be offset,
2. Shift the count value to the left side of the decimal point.
3. If the count value is positive, make it negative by replacing the leading digit (the left-most digit) with a minus sign. If the count value is negative, make it positive by replacing the negative sign with a zero.
Example 1: Your meter displays 000.003 when the input is zero. The count value is 000003. Shift this value to the left side of the decimal point: 003.000. Change the leading zero to a minus sign: -03.000. This is the “converted offset value” you will use for configuring RDG OF.
Example 2: Your meter displays -00.003 when the input is zero. The count value is -00003. Shift this value to the left side of the decimal point: -03.000. Change the leading minus sign to a zero: 003.000. This is the “converted offset value” you will use for configuring RDG OF.
If the nonzero reading is fluctuating between two numbers, convert the smaller count value to the offset value, then add a 5 just right of the decimal point. This adds half a count to the offset. For example, the display is fluctuating between 00.0001 and 00.0002. Calculate the offset using the 000001 count value. The converted offset value is -1.0000. Add a 5 to the right of the decimal point: -the final offset value is -1.5000.
Page 54

Scaling to Display Engineering Units
44
THEN PRESS UNTIL (TO CHANGE DISPLAY
PRESS IF REQUIRED) SHOWS COMMENTS ‘MENU’ “RDG OF” Press the ‘MENU’ button until
the display shows “RDG OF”.
‘MIN’ “000000.” Press the ‘MIN’ button and the
display will show the last offset entered.
‘MIN’ ‘MAX’ “XXXXXX” Use the ‘MIN’ to move to each
digit and the ‘MAX’ button to change the flashing digits value and enter your zero offset number.
‘MENU’ “STORED” Press the ‘MENU’
then button to store “IN CNF” your selection. The display will
momentarily show “STORED” then “IN CNF”.
‘RESET’ ‘RESET’ “RESET2” Press the ‘RESET’
the then button two times. The Measured display will momentarily Value show “RESET2” and you will
display the currently measured values.
NOTE: If after zeroing the display with RDG OF, the reading again drifts from zero, the required offset value is the sum of the current RDG OF value and the current converted offset value. The examples below illustrate the calculation of required offset values when using an independent decimal. If you are using an active decimal point, the current converted offset value is simply the negative value of the display reading.
Example 1: You use a RDG OF value of -1.0000 to zero the meter. The next morning, the meter displays 00.0008 at zero input; you need to rezero. The current count value is 000008; shifting this value to the left of the decimal makes it 08.0000, and making the value negative makes it -8.0000. The required RDG OF value is the sum of the current RDG OF value (-1.0000) and the current converted offset value (-8.0000):
-1.0000 + -8.0000 = -9.0000

Example: You use a RDG OF value of -1.0000 to zero the meter. The next morning, the meter displays -0.0008 at zero input; you need to rezero. The current count value is -00008; shifting this value to the left of the decimal makes it -8.0000, and making the value positive makes it 08.0000. The required RDG OF value is sum of the current RDG OF value (-1.0000) and the current converted offset value (08.0000):
-1.0000 + 08.0000 = 07.0000
If you require further configuration(s) for your specific application, refer to sections 9 through 21.
NOTE: Should you receive an error code of any kind while configuring your meter, refer to Section 17 - Troubleshooting - Display Messages and Troubleshooting Guide.
8.4 SCALING YOUR METER WITHOUT CONNECTING A SENSOR USING CALCULATED VALUES
Your meter can be scaled without connecting a sensor and taking measured values rising Input Scale and Offset (“IN.SC.OF”).
The typical configuration and scaling of your meter is 4-20 mAdc input with a display equal to 0 to 100000. If your meter has not been rescaled and your input is 4-20 mAdc, you can use the factory scaling “0” as your “INPUT1” and “100000” as your “INPUT2” and proceed with the step by step procedure in Section 8.4.1.
If you need to change your input signal, you must rescale your meter as described in the following steps:
8.4.1 PREPARING YOUR METER FOR SCALING WITH INPUT SCALE AND OFFSET
If you are changing your input signal you must follow the instruction for installing the correct jumper positions as described in Section 6 and the sensor connections as described in Section 7.
WARNING: Do not connect your AC meter power until all input jumpers and sensor input connections are completed. Failure to do so could result in damage to your sensor and/or the meter.
The following procedure will direct you step by step in preparing your meter for rescaling using Input Scale and Offset (“IN.SC.OF”)

For the purpose of this procedure, we will use an input of 1-5 Vdc and scale the meter to display 0 to 2500.0.
The calculated scale factors can now be used to scale your meter to display in engineering units using Input Scale and Offset (“IN.SC.OF”) as follows:
Record your “INPUT1” and “READ 1” numbers, and your “INPUT2” and “READ 2” numbers, record them below and proceed as follows:
Example
INPUT1 = ________________ 010000.
READ 1 = ________________ 000000.

8.4.4 ENTERING ZERO OFFSET NUMBERS
The RDG OF (Reading Offset) menu item should be used if the meter shows a nonzero reading with zero input. The offset value zeroes the display by canceling out the nonzero reading.
If your meter displays a positive reading at zero input, you must enter a negative offset value. If your meter displays a negative reading at zero input, you must enter a positive offset value.
If you are using an active decimal point (RDG.2=0), your offset value will be the negative of the display reading at zero point.
If you are using the more common independent decimal point (the -factory setting, RDG.2=1), follow these instructions to convert the display reading to the appropriate offset value:
1. Note the display reading at zero input, ignoring the decimal point. This reading represents the count value - the number of whole counts that need to be Offset.
2. Shift the count value to the left side of the decimal point.
3. If the count value is positive, make it negative by replacing the leading digit (the left-most digit) with a minus sign. If the count value is negative, make it positive by replacing the negative sign with a zero.
Example 1: Your meter displays, 000.003 when the input is zero. The count value is 000003. Shift this value to the left side of the decimal point: 003.000. Change the leading zero to a minus sign: -03.000. This is the “converted offset value” you will use for configuring RDG OF.
Example 2: Your meter displays -00.003 when the input is zero. The count value is -00003. Shift this value to the left side of the decimal point: -03.000. Change the leading minus sign to a zero: 003.000. This is the “converted offset value” you will use for configuring RDG OF.
If the nonzero reading is fluctuating between two numbers, convert the smaller count value to the offset value, then add a 5 just right of the decimal point. This adds half a count to the offset. For example, the display is fluctuating between 00.0001 and 00.0002.
Calculate the offset using the 000001 count value. The converted offset value is -1.0000. Add a 5 to the right of the decimal point: the final offset value is -1.5000.

THEN PRESS UNTIL (TO CHANGE DISPLAY
PRESS IF REQUIRED) SHOWS COMMENTS ‘MENU’ “RDG OF” Press the ‘MENU’ button until
the display shows “RDG OF”.
‘MIN’ “000000.” Press the ‘MIN’ button and the
display will show the last offset entered.
‘MIN’ ‘MAX’ “XXXXXX” Use the ‘MIN’ to move to each
digit and the ‘MAX’ button to change the flashing digits value and enter your zero offset number.
‘MENU’ “STORED” Press the ‘MENU’
then button to store your “IN CNF” selection. The display will
momentarily show “STORED” then “IN CNF”.
‘RESET’ ‘RESET’ “RESET2” Press the ‘RESET’
then the button two times. The Measured display will momentarily Value show “RESET2” and then will
display the currently measured values.
NOTE: If after zeroing the display with RDG OF, the reading again drifts from zero, the required offset value is the sum of the current RDG OF value and the current converted offset value. The examples below illustrate the calculation of required offset values when using an independent decimal. If you are using an active decimal point, the current converted offset value is simply the negative value of the display reading.
Note

Example 1: You use a RDG OF value of -1.0000 to zero the meter. The next morning, the meter displays 00.0008 at zero input; you need to rezero. The current count value is 000008; shifting this value to the left of the decimal makes it 08.0000, and making the value negative makes it -8.0000. The required RDG OF value is the sum of the current RDG OF value (-1.0000) and the current converted offset value (-8.0000):
-1.0000 + -8,0000 = -9,0000
Example 2: You use a RDG OF value of -1.0000 to zero the meter. The next morning, the meter displays -0.0008 at zero input; you need to rezero. The current count value is -00008; shifting this value to the left of the decimal makes it -8.0000, and making the value positive makes it 08.0000. The required RDG OF value is sum of the current RDG OF value (-1.0000) and the current converted offset value (08.0000):
-1.0000 + 08.0000 = 07.0000
If you require further configuration(s) for your specific application, refer to Sections 9 through 21.

Reading configuration is used to select:
• reading scale and offset (direct vs 2-point) [RDG.1]
• active or independent decimal point [RDG.2]
• display brightness [RDG.3]
• leading zero suppression on your meter display [RDG.4]
Direct scale and Offset: these two values are used in the straight line equation, y = mx + b. (RD.SC.OF)
Display = m times input plus b or [ m (input) + b ] (where m is the RDG SC and b is the RDG OF).
RDG.6 enables or disables (RD.SC.OF), (RDG,SC), (RDG.OF).
The 2-data-point method allows the user to use two known points to convert from one scale to another. For example, to convert from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius, enter two (2) known points, such as 32°F = 0°C and 0°F = 17.77°C. The meter will automatically compute scale and offset and display the correct value.

9.2.3 RDG SC (Reading Scale) And RDG OF (Reading Offset)
Typically, this would be used only when you cannot connect a known load to your meter, you require a display with 3 or more positions to the right of the decimal point position, you have scaled your meter using Input Scale and Offset (“IN.SC.OF”) and want to enter a constant multiplying factor, or you have an extremely large offset.
If “RDG.1=0” were chosen, then you go automatically into “RDG SC” and “RDG OF” where:
“RDG SC” is reading scale from -99999 to +499999 where you set the display to “1.00000” and “RDG OF” is reading offset from -99999 to 999999 when you set the display to “000000”.
When “RDG SC” is displayed, press the ‘MIN’ button to see the previously­set value. Process measurement scale is set to “1.00000” using the ‘MIN/MAX’ buttons. Store by pressing the ‘MENU’ button.
For “RDG OF”, you may choose to enter a reference temperature offset here (e.g., “-100.00”) so that the display will read deviation of the input from the boiling point (or some other temperature).
If “RDG.1 = 1” were chosen, then you go automatically into “RD.SC.OF”.
Direct reading offset “RDG OF” now has programmable decimal point position. This makes the decimal point independent of the display decimal point and allows larger offset values.

• slow or fast read rate [INP.2]
• unipolar or bipolar inputs
• cold junction compensation [INP.5]
INP.1 and INP.2 are related to each other. If your power requirements require 50 Hz, you can have optimum integration in FAST read mode (12/sec). In the FAST mode, you need a jumper in the S1A position on the vertical Signal Input Board. If you set the SLOW read rate, this jumper should be removed to avoid overloading the integrator. SLOW read rate produces less noise.

Count by is used to round off the meter values by 1’s, 2’s, 5’s, 10’s, 20’s, 50’s, or 100’s. This feature is normally set to “001” so that the display shows all possible values for the least-significant digit.
If the combination of input-signal noise and selected resolution is high, however, your meter can round off the display to the nearest 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 or even 100 digits. This can eliminate annoying display jitter without introducing any filter time delays.

9.2.8 FIL.CNF (Filter Configuration)
Filter configuration is used to select:
• Adaptive Bandwidth Control (ABC) filtering or moving average filter [FIL.1]
• whether the value displayed on the meter is filtered or unfiltered [FIL.2]
• whether the value sent to the optional analog output is filtered or unfiltered [FIL.3]
“FIL.1=0” for Adaptive Bandwidth Control (ABC filtering, which averages over a larger number of samples when the input is not moving, but drops down to no averaging for systematic input changes). “FIL.1=1” is for averaging over a fixed number of samples. The number of samples to be used is selected in “FIL TI”.
“FIL.3=0” removes the selected filtering from the analog output (if that option is installed in your meter). “FIL.3=1” puts the selected filtering on that output. Usually you choose “FIL.3=0”, relying on the signal conditioning available at the device receiving the analog output data.

For fixed filtering, the averaged number of samples is fixed; for Automatic Bandwidth Control, the chosen value is the maximum number of samples in the average computed by ABC when the input is not changing significantly (ABC, for slowly-moving signals, filters by averaging the “TI” number of samples, but follows signal changes rapidly by decreasing that averaging number).
Pressing the ‘MENU’ button stores your selection and moves on to “RESET 1” and then to “RUN” (unless setpoints, outputs, or communications have been unlocked for programming change)

Serial count is used to program the number of readings the meter must take (programmable from “00001” to “59,999”) between transmissions of data via the optional RS-232 or RS-485 serial communications board.
Once you are done with the changes, press the ‘MENU’ button to display the normal operating display. The meter advances to run mode showing the currently measured values. Pressing the ‘RESET’ button two times allows you to return to the run mode.
MENU MIN/MAX/MENU * BUTTON BUTTON MAIN MENU SUB MENU DESCRIPTION
“SERCNT”: SERIAL COUNT
This specifies the number of readings between data transmissions:
“00000” “00001” to “59999”
(“00001”
)
* Press the ‘MIN’ button to show the value on the display.
The ‘MIN’ button also allows you to change the position of the digit being changed.
The ‘MAX’ button changes the value of the digit to be displayed.
Press the ‘MENU’ button to store the changes and advances the meter to “RESET 2” and returns to the run mode.
The underlined item is the factory preset value.
NOTE: After you complete your programming you may want to go back and remove the jumper in S3A position on the main board to insure against any unauthorized changes.

9.2.24 ANALOG OUTPUT CALIBRATION NUMBERS
The analog output calibration numbers (see Figure 12-1) are printed on the optional analog output board. These four numbers (CAL VZ, CAL VS, CAL mAS), must be entered into the meter to ensure that the analog output board is calibrated with the microprocessor.
MENU MIN/MAX/MENU * BUTTON BUTTON MAIN MENU SUB MENU DESCRIPTION
“CAL VZ” 0 to 59999 Calibration number marked on the
analog output board must be entered
for voltage zero.
“CAL VS” 0 to 59999 Calibration number marked on the
analog output board must be entered
for voltage span.
“CAL mAZ” 0 to 59999 Calibration number marked on the
analog output board must be entered
for current zero.
“CAL mAs” 0 to 59999 Calibration number marked on the
analog output board must be entered
for current span.
NOTE: After you complete your programming you may want to go back and remove the jumper in S3A position on the main board to insure against any unauthorized changes.
Once you are done with the changes, press the ‘MENU’ button to display. The meter advances to run mode showing the currently measured values.

SETPOINTS/ALARMS
Setpoints 1 through 4 can be configured for a very large variety of zone and level signalling.
SP1 and SP2 have balanced configurable hysteresis and are non-latching, suitable for control-level signalling. SP3 and SP4 are often used as ALarm 1 and ALarm 2, because they have single-sided hysteresis and can be configured for latching action.
The levels of these setpoints are entered during run mode via the front-panel pushbuttons (refer to Section 10.11). Many performance options are entered during the configuration mode (refer to Sections 10.2 through 10.10).
10.1 FEATURES OVERVIEW
1. Four full-range levels with many menu programmable features.
2. Independent operation or ganged action (including guard-band assignments).
3. Active above or below level, outside or inside band.
4. SP1 and SP2 have configurable hysteresis, 50% on either side of setpoint.
5. SP3 and SP4 have configurable hysteresis, 100% on inactive side.
6. SP3 and SP4 is configurable for latching action.
7. Setpoint levels can be compared to the unfiltered or filtered input signal measurements.
8. Configurable delays in alarm action.
9. Individual front-panel LED indicators.
10. Four (4) open-collector transistor outputs with clamping diodes, are isolated from signal input.
11. Setpoints can be displayed and reset as desired without interrupting measurements.
Setpoints 1 and 2 have selectable hysteresis, allocated 50% on either side of the setpoint level. A single setpoint can now generate on/off control signals for an operating region defined by the hysteresis. Refer to Figures 10-1 and 10-2 to understand how hysteresis works:

Figure 10-1. Setpoints 1 & 2 Action (Setpoint at 100 with 4% hysteresis)
These two setpoints have selectable single-sided hysteresis. When used as alarms, the action is immediate (unless a delay is programmed) going into the alarm zone but turning off is deferred (if latching is not programmed) by the hysteresis amount.

(for Low Alarm with Relay on at -100, relay off at -96 with a hysteresis of 4)
You are now able to program the setpoint features (as described in the following sections).
