WARNING : These products are not designed for use in, and should not be used for, human applications.
The Analog Panel Meter offers many features and performance capabilities to
suit a wide range of industrial applications. The DP63100 has a universal input
to handle various input signals including DC Voltage/Current, Process,
Resistance and Temperature. The optional plug-in output cards allow the
opportunity to configure the meter for present applications, while providing easy
upgrades for future needs. The DP63100 employs a dual line, tri-color display
with a large 0.71", tri-color 6 digit top display line and a 0.35", 9 digit green
bottom display line.
The meter provides a MAX and MIN reading memory with programmable
capture time. The capture time is used to prevent detection of false max or min
readings which may occur during start-up or unusual process events.
The signal totalizer (integrator) can be used to compute a time-input product.
This can be used to provide a readout of totalized flow or calculate service
intervals of motors, pumps, etc. The meter has up to four setpoint outputs,
implemented on plug-in option cards. The plug-in cards provide dual FORM-C
relays, quad FORM-A, or either quad sinking or quad sourcing open collector
logic outputs. The setpoint alarms can be configured to suit a variety of control
and alarm requirements.
Communication and bus capabilities are also available as option cards. These
include RS232 and RS485. The DP63100 can be programmed to utilize ModBus
protocol. With ModBus, the user has access to most configuration parameters.
Readout values and setpoint alarm values can be controlled through the bus.
Additionally, the meter has a feature that allows a remote computer to directly
control the outputs of the meter.
The DP63100 includes a built-in USB programming port. With a Windows
based program, made available by Omega, configuration data can be downloaded
to the DP63100 without the need of any additional option cards.
A linear DC output signal is available as an optional plug-in card. The card
provides either 20 mA or 10 V signals. The output can be scaled independent of
the input range and can track either the input, totalizer, max or min readings.
The meter has been specifically designed for harsh industrial environments.
With NEMA 4X/IP65 sealed bezel and extensive testing of noise effects and CE
requirements, the meter provides a tough reliable application solution.

Installation
The meter meets NEMA 4X/IP65 requirements when properly installed. The
unit is intended to be mounted into an enclosed panel. Prepare the panel cutout
to the dimensions shown. Remove the panel latch from the unit. Slide the panel
gasket over the rear of the unit to the back of the bezel. The unit should be
installed fully assembled. Insert the unit into the panel cutout.
While holding the unit in place, push the panel
latch over the rear of the unit so that the tabs of
the panel latch engage in the slots on the
case. The panel latch should be
engaged in the farthest forward slot
possible. To achieve a proper
seal, tighten the latch
2.0 seTTinGThe JuMpers
The DP63100 meter has four jumpers that must be checked and/or changed
prior to applying power. The following Jumper Selection Figures show an
enlargement of the jumper area.
To access the jumpers, remove the meter base from the case by firmly
squeezing and pulling back on the side rear finger tabs. This should lower the
latch below the case slot (which is located just in front of the finger tabs). It is
recommended to release the latch on one side, then start the other side latch.
Warning: Exposed line voltage exists on the circuit boards. Remove
all power to the meter and load circuits before accessing inside of
the meter.

Current Input
For current input, only one jumper must be configured to select the current
range. This jumper is shared with the voltage input range. To avoid overloads,
select the jumper position that is high enough to accommodate the maximum
signal input level to be applied.
Note: The position of the T/V jumper does not matter when the meter is in the
current input mode.
Temperature Input
For temperature measurement the T/V jumper must be in the T (temperature)
position. For RTD sensors the RTD jumper must also be set.
Resistance Input
Three jumpers are used to configure the resistance input. The T/V jumper
must be in the V (voltage) position, and the excitation jumper must be in the
1.05 mA REF position. The voltage/resistance jumper position is determined by
the input range.
Excitation Output Jumper
This jumper is used to select the excitation range for the application. If
excitation is not being used, it is not necessary to check or move this jumper.

WIRING OVERVIEW
Electrical connections are made via screw-clamp terminals located on the
back of the meter. All conductors should conform to the meter’s voltage and
current ratings. All cabling should conform to appropriate standards of good
installation, local codes and regulations. It is recommended that the power
supplied to the meter (DC or AC) be protected by a fuse or circuit breaker.
When wiring the meter, compare the numbers embossed on the back of the
meter case against those shown in wiring drawings for proper wire position.
Strip the wire, leaving approximately 0.3" (7.5 mm) bare lead exposed (stranded
wires should be tinned with solder). Insert the lead under the correct screwclamp terminal and tighten until the wire is secure (Pull wire to verify tightness).
Each terminal can accept up to one #14 AWG (2.55 mm) wire, two #18 AWG
(1.02 mm), or four #20 AWG (0.61 mm).
EMC INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Although this meter is designed with a high degree of immunity to ElectroMagnetic Interference (EMI), proper installation and wiring methods must be
followed to ensure compatibility in each application. The type of the electrical
noise, source or coupling method into the meter may be different for various
installations. The meter becomes more immune to EMI with fewer I/O
connections. Cable length, routing, and shield termination are very important
and can mean the difference between a successful or troublesome installation.
Listed below are some EMC guidelines for successful installation in an
industrial environment.
1. The meter should be mounted in a metal enclosure, which is properly
connected to protective earth.
2. Use shielded (screened) cables for all Signal and Control inputs. The shield
(screen) pigtail connection should be made as short as possible. The
connection point for the shield depends somewhat upon the application.
Listed below are the recommended methods of connecting the shield, in order
of their effectiveness.
a. Connect the shield only at the panel where the unit is mounted to earth
ground (protective earth).
b. Connect the shield to earth ground at both ends of the cable, usually when
the noise source frequency is above 1 MHz.
c. Connect the shield to common of the meter and leave the other end of the
shield unconnected and insulated from earth ground.
3. Never run Signal or Control cables in the same conduit or raceway with AC
power lines, conductors feeding motors, solenoids, SCR controls, and
heaters, etc. The cables should be run in metal conduit that is properly
grounded. This is especially useful in applications where cable runs are long
and portable two-way radios are used in close proximity or if the installation
is near a commercial radio transmitter.
4. Signal or Control cables within an enclosure should be routed as far as possible
from contactors, control relays, transformers, and other noisy components.
5. In extremely high EMI environments, the use of external EMI suppression
devices, such as ferrite suppression cores, is effective. Install them on Signal
and Control cables as close to the unit as possible. Loop the cable through the
core several times or use multiple cores on each cable for additional
protection. Install line filters on the power input cable to the unit to suppress
power line interference. Install them near the power entry point of the
enclosure. The following EMI suppression devices (or equivalent) are
recommended:

DP63100 DISPLAY LOOPS
The DP63100 offers three display loops to allow users quick access to needed
information. These display loops are available when the meter is in the normal
display mode. By pressing the D key, the user can view parameters such as the
Total, Min, Max or the Input in the Main Display Loop. Display selections are
fully programmable and are viewed on the 9 digit line of the meter.
Pressing the P key with no security code (COdE0) will put the meter directly
into the programming mode. When a security code is programmed (Code
1-250), pressing the P key will allow access to the Parameter Display Loop.
This loop is where the parameters like setpoint values are normally put for
general public access. Parameters in this loop can only be viewed/changed if
enabled in the meter programming. After all the parameters in the Parameter
Display Loop are viewed, an additional press of the P key will bring up the
security code (COdE0). Access the Hidden Parameter Display Loop by entering
the selected security code. In this loop displayed parameters can be changed.
Combining the two parameter loops provides an area for parameters that require
general access and/or protected or secure access depending on your application
needs.
During programming of the meter you will need to select if a value is to be
displayed or not. If the value is not required, select the lock mode (LOC). If you
decide to display the value, you will need to assign it to a loop; D for the Main
Display Loop, P for the Parameter Display Loop, and HidE for the Hidden
Display Loop. In the case of the parameters, such as the setpoint values you will
also need to decide if the value can only be read (rEd) or entered (ENt). The !
and @ key will increment or decrement the value when the edit mode is active.
After the change, press the P key to save and move to the next value. Any values
placed in the Hidden Parameter Loop can be changed as they are protected by
the security code. While in the parameter display and hidden parameter loops,
F1
Pro
5-totAL
pressing the D key will return the meter to the main display.
When the P key is pushed on a resettable display, the unit will display the value
mnemonic and “NO” (if Line 2 value was set for “d-ENt” in “3-dISPLY”).
Pressing the ! and @ keys will toggle between “NO’ and “YES”. Pressing the
P key with “YES” displayed will cause the reset action to be performed.

and hidden parameter loop. It is used as the enter key when the meter is in the

Numerical Value Entry
If the parameter is programmed for enter (ENt), the ! and @ keys are used
to change the parameter values in any of the display loops.
The ! and @ keys will increment or decrement the parameter value. When
the arrow key is pressed and held, the value automatically scrolls. The longer the
arrow key is held the faster the value scrolls.
For large value changes, press and hold the ! or @ key. While holding that
key, momentarily press the D key and the value scrolls by 1000’s as the arrow
key is held. Releasing the arrow key removes the 1000’s scroll feature. The
arrow keys can then be used to make small value changes as described above.

FILTER BAND

The digital filter will adapt to variations in the input signal. When the
variation exceeds the input filter band value, the digital filter disengages. When
the variation becomes less than the band value, the filter engages again. This
allows for a stable readout, but permits the display to settle rapidly after a large
process change. The value of the band is in display units, independent of the
Display Decimal Point position. A band setting of ‘0’ keeps the digital filter
permanently engaged.

For linear processes, only 2 scaling points are necessary. It is recommended
INP

Page 14
that the 2 scaling points be at opposite ends of the input signal being applied.
The points do not have to be the signal limits. Display scaling will be linear
between and continue past the entered points up to the limits of the Input Signal
Jumper position. Each scaling point has a coordinate-pair of Input Value (INPUt n) and an associated desired Display Value (dISPLY n).
Nonlinear - Scaling Points (Greater than 2)
For non-linear processes, up to 16 scaling points may be used to provide a
piece-wise linear approximation. (The greater the number of scaling points used,
the greater the conformity accuracy.) The Input Display will be linear between
scaling points that are sequential in program order. Each scaling point has a
coordinate-pair of Input Value (INPUt n) and an associated desired Display Value
(dISPLY n). Data from tables or equations, or empirical data could be used to
derive the required number of segments and data values for the coordinate pairs.
In the DP6-SOFT software, several linearization equations are available.
This parameter does not apply for thermocouple or RTD input ranges.

If Input Values and corresponding Display Values are known, the Key-in

The two user inputs are individually programmable to perform specific meter
control functions. While in the Display Mode or Program Mode, the function is
executed the instant the user input transitions to the active state. The front panel
function keys, ! and @, are also individually programmable to perform
specific meter control functions. While in the Display Mode, the primary
function is executed the instant the key is pressed. Holding the function key for
three seconds executes a secondary function. It is possible to program a
secondary function without a primary function.
In most cases, if more than one user input and/or function key is programmed
for the same function, the maintained (level trigger) actions will be performed
while at least one of those user inputs or function keys are activated. The
momentary (edge trigger) actions will be performed every time any of those user
inputs or function keys transition to the active state.
Note: In the following explanations, not all selections are available for both

Module 3 is the programming of the Main Display Loop, Parameter Display
Loop, Hidden Parameter Loop, and Full Programming lock-out. The large upper
display line value is configured by the “LINE1” parameter. The Units mnemonic
can be used to assign a custom display mnemonic to the upper display value.
When in the Main Display Loop, the available Line 2 displays (items configured
for d-rEd or d-ENt) can be consecutively read on lower display by repeatedly
pressing the D key. A left justified 3 character mnemonic indicates which
parameter value is being shown on the lower display. When in the Main Display
Loop the User keys ! and @ function as programmed in Module 2.
The Parameter display loop items can be accessed by pressing the P key. To
edit a main display line item, that is configured as d-ENt, the P key is pushed
and the unit enters a parameter edit mode in which the ! and @ key increments
or decrements the value.
Full Programming Mode permits all parameters to be viewed and modified.
This Programming Mode can be locked with a security code and/or user input.

This parameter configures the display update rate. It does not affect the

The totalizer accumulates (integrates) the Input Display value using one of
two modes. The first is using a time base. This can be used to compute a time
temperature product. The second is through a user input or function key
programmed for Batch (one time add on demand). This can be used to provide
a readout of temperature integration, useful in curing and sterilization
applications. If the Totalizer is not needed, its display can be locked-out and this
module can be skipped during programming.

For most applications, the Totalizer reflects the same decimal point location

Factor is 1.000. The Totalizer Scale Factor can be used to scale the Totalizer to
a value that is different than the Input Display. Common possibilities are:
1. Changing decimal point location (example tenths to whole)
2. Average over a controlled time frame.
Details on calculating the scale factor are shown later.
If the Totalizer is being accumulated through a user input programmed for
Batch, then this parameter does not apply.

TOTALIZER BATCHING
The Totalizer Time Base and scale factor are overridden when a user input or
function key is programmed for store batch (bAt). In this mode, when the user
input or function key is activated, the Input Display reading is one time added
to the Totalizer (batch). The Totalizer retains a running sum of each batch
operation until the Totalizer is reset. This is useful in weighing operations, when
the value to be added is not based on time but after a filling event.
TOTALIZER USING TIME BASE
Totalizer accumulates as defined by:
Input Display x Totalizer Scale Factor
Totalizer Time Base
Where:
Input Display - the present input reading
Totalizer Scale Factor - 0.001 to 65.000
Totalizer Time Base - (the division factor of tbASE)
Example: The input reading is at a constant rate of 10.0 gallons per minute. The
Totalizer is used to determine how many gallons in tenths has flowed.
Because the Input Display and Totalizer are both in tenths of gallons, the
Totalizer Scale Factor is 1. With gallons per minute, the Totalizer Time Base
is minutes (60). By placing these values in the equation, the Totalizer will
accumulate every second as follows:
10.0 x 1.000 = 0.1667 gallon accumulates each second
60
This results in:
10.0 gallons accumulates each minute
600.0 gallons accumulates each hour
TOTALIZER SCALE FACTOR CALCULATION EXAMPLES
1. When changing the Totalizer Decimal Point (dECPNt) location from the
Input Display Decimal Point (dECPNt), the required Totalizer Scale Factor is
multiplied by a power of ten.
2. To obtain an average reading within a controlled time frame, the selected
Totalizer Time Base is divided by the given time period expressed in the same
timing units.
Example: Average temperature per hour in a 4 hour period, the scale factor
would be 0.250. To achieve a controlled time frame, connect an external timer
to a user input programmed for r-tot. The timer will control the start (reset) and
the stopping (hold) of the totalizer.

remains off until the trigger point is crossed again. (Previously latched alarms
will be off if power up Display Value is lower than setpoint value.)
LAtCh2 = Latch with delay reset action; This action latches the alarm output on

serial COMMuniCaTiOns
The DP63100 supports serial communications using the optional serial communication cards or via the USB programming port located on the side of the unit. When
USB is being used (connected), the serial communication card is disabled. When using the standard RS232 and RS485 option cards, the DP63100 supports both the
RLC protocol and also supports ModBus communications. The ModBus option card should not be used with the DP63100, as the DP63100 internal ModBus protocol
supports complete unit configuration, and is much more responsive.
USB
The USB programming port is primarily intended to be used to configure the
DP63100 with the DP6-SOFT programming software. It can also, be used as a
virtual serial communications port following installation of the DP63100 USB
drivers that are supplied with the software. When the USB port is being used,
i.e. the USB cable is connected between DP63100 and PC, all serial
communications with the serial option card (if used) is disabled.
USB Cable type required: USB A to Mini-B (not supplied)
DP63100 CONFIGURATION USING DP6-SOFT AND USB
1. Install DP6-SOFT software.
2. Supply power to DP63100

SENDING SERIAL COMMANDS AND DATA TO THE METER
When sending commands to the meter, a string containing at least one
command character must be constructed. A command string consists of a
command character, a value identifier, numerical data (if writing data to the
meter) followed by a command terminator character * or $.

Command String Construction
The command string must be constructed in a specific sequence. The meter
does not respond with an error message to invalid commands. The following
procedure details construction of a command string:
1. The first characters consist of the Node Address Specifier (N) followed by a
1 or 2 character address number. The address number of the meter is
programmable. If the node address is 0, this command and the node address
itself may be omitted. This is the only command that may be used in
conjunction with other commands.
2. After the address specifier, the next character is the command character.
3. The next character is the Register ID. This identifies the register that the
command affects. The P command does not require a Register ID character.
It prints according to the selections made in print options.
4. If constructing a value change command (writing data), the numeric data is
sent next.
5. All command strings must be terminated with the string termination
characters * or $. The meter does not begin processing the command string
until this character is received. See Timing Diagram figure for differences
between terminating characters.
Address a specific meter. Must be followed by a
one or two digit node address. Not required when
address = 0.
Read a register from the meter. Must be followed
by register ID character
Write to register or output. Must be followed by
register ID character and numeric data.
register ID character.
Initiates a block print output. Registers are defined
in programming.
Numeric data sent to the meter must be limited to 6 digits (-199999 to
999999). Leading zeros are ignored. Negative numbers must have a minus sign.
The meter ignores any decimal point and conforms the number to the scaled
resolution. (For example: the meter’s scaled decimal point position = 0.0 and 25
is written to a register. The value of the register is now 2.5.
Note: Since the meter does not issue a reply to value change commands, follow
with a transmit value command for readback verification.

Page 30
RECEIVING DATA FROM THE METER
Data is transmitted by the meter in response to either a transmit command (T),
a print block command (P) or User Function print request. The response from
the meter is either a full field transmission or an abbreviated transmission. The
meter response mode is selected in program Module 7 (Abrv).
Full Field Transmission (Address, Mnemonic, Numeric data)
Byte Description
1, 2 2 byte Node Address field [00-99]
3 <SP> (Space)
4-6 3 byte Register Mnemonic field
7-18 2 byte data field, 10 bytes for number, one byte for sign, one byte for
decimal point
19 <CR> carriage return
20 <LF> line feed
21 <SP>* (Space)
22 <CR>* carriage return
23 <LF>* line feed
* These characters only appear in the last line of a block print.
The first two characters transmitted are the node address, unless the node
address assigned = 0, in which case spaces are substituted. A space follows the
node address field. The next three characters are the register mnemonic.
The numeric data is transmitted next. The numeric field is 12 characters long
(to accommodate the 10 digit totalizer), with the decimal point position floating
within the data field. Negative values have a leading minus sign. The data field
is right justified with leading spaces.
The end of the response string is terminated with a carriage return <CR> and
<LF>. When block print is finished, an extra <SP><CR> <LF> is used to
provide separation between the blocks.
Abbreviated Transmission (Numeric data only)
Byte Description
1-12 12 byte data field, 10 bytes for number, one byte for sign, one byte for
decimal point
13 <CR> carriage return
14 <LF> line feed
15 <SP>* (Space)
16 <CR>* carriage return
17 <LF>* line feed
* These characters only appear in the last line of a block print.
Meter Response Examples:
1. Node address = 17, full field response, Input = 875
17 INP 875 <CR><LF>
2. Node address = 0, full field response, Setpoint 2 = -250.5
SP2 -250.5<CR><LF>
3. Node address = 0, abbreviated response, Setpoint 2 = 250, last line of block
print
250<CR><LF><SP><CR><LF>
Analog Output Register (AOR) ID: W
This register stores the present signal value of the analog output. The range
of values of this register is 0 to 4095, which corresponds to the analog output
range per the following chart:
Register
Value
00.004.000.000
10.005 4.0040.0025
204710.000 12.0005.000
409419.995 19.9969.9975
409520.000 20.00010.000
Output Signal*
0-20 mA 4-20 mA 0-10 V
*Due to the absolute accuracy rating and resolution of the output card, the
actual output signal may differ 0.15% FS from the table values. The output
signal corresponds to the range selected (0-20 mA, 4-20 mA or 0-10 V).
Writing to this register (VW) while the analog output is in the Manual Mode
causes the output signal level to update immediately to the value sent. While in
the Automatic Mode, this register may be written to, but it has no effect until the
analog output is placed in the manual mode. When in the Automatic Mode, the
meter controls the analog output signal level. Reading from this register (TW)
will show the present value of the analog output signal.
Example: VW2047 will result in an output of 10.000 mA, 12.000 mA or
5.000V depending on the range selected.
Setpoint Output Register (SOR) ID: X
This register stores the states of the setpoint outputs. Reading from this
register (TX) will show the present state of all the setpoint outputs. A “0” in the
setpoint location means the output is off and a “1” means the output is on.
X abcd
d = SP4
c = SP3
b = SP2
a = SP1
In Automatic Mode, the meter controls the setpoint output state. In Manual
Mode, writing to this register (VX) will change the output state. Sending any
character besides 0 or 1 in a field or if the corresponding output was not first in
manual mode, the corresponding output value will not change. (It is not
necessary to send least significant 0s.)
Example: VX10 will result in output 1 on and output 2 off.
Auto/Manual Mode Register (MMR) ID: U
This register sets the controlling mode for the outputs. In Auto Mode (0) the
meter controls the setpoint and analog output. In Manual Mode (1) the outputs
are defined by the registers SOR and AOR. When transferring from auto mode
to manual mode, the meter holds the last output value (until the register is
changed by a write). Each output may be independently changed to auto or
manual. In a write command string (VU), any character besides 0 or 1 in a field
will not change the corresponding output mode.
U abcde
e = Analog Output
d = SP4
c = SP3
b = SP2
a = SP1
Example: VU00011 places SP4 and Analog in manual.

COMMAND RESPONSE TIME
The meter can only receive data or transmit data at any one time (half-duplex
operation). When sending commands and data to the meter, a delay must be
imposed before sending another command. This allows enough time for the
meter to process the command and prepare for the next command.
At the start of the time interval t

RESPONSE FROM METER
COMMUNICATION FORMAT
Data is transferred from the meter through a serial communication channel.
In serial communications, the voltage is switched between a high and low level
at a predetermined rate (baud rate) using ASCII encoding. The receiving device
reads the voltage levels at the same intervals and then translates the switched
levels back to a character.
The voltage level conventions depend on the interface standard. The table
lists the voltage levels for each standard.
LOGICRS232*RS485*INTERFACE STATE
1TXD,RXD; -3 to -15 Va-b < -200 mVmark (idle)
0TXD,RXD; +3 to +15 Va-b > +200 mVspace (active)
* Voltage levels at the Receiver
Data is transmitted one byte at a time with a variable idle period between
characters (0 to ∞). Each ASCII character is “framed” with a beginning start bit,
an optional parity bit and one or more ending stop bits. The data format and
baud rate must match that of other equipment in order for communication to
take place. The figures list the data formats employed by the meter.
Start bit and Data bits
Data transmission always begins with the start bit. The start bit signals the
receiving device to prepare for reception of data. One bit period later, the least
significant bit of the ASCII encoded character is transmitted, followed by the
remaining data bits. The receiving device then reads each bit position as they are
transmitted. Since the sending and receiving devices operate at the same
transmission speed (baud rate), the data is read without timing errors.
Character Frame Figure
Parity bit
After the data bits, the parity bit is sent. The transmitter sets the parity bit to
a zero or a one, so that the total number of ones contained in the transmission
(including the parity bit) is either even or odd. This bit is used by the receiver
to detect errors that may occur to an odd number of bits in the transmission.
However, a single parity bit cannot detect errors that may occur to an even
number of bits. Given this limitation, the parity bit is often ignored by the
receiving device. The meter ignores the parity bit of incoming data and sets the
parity bit to odd, even or none (mark parity) for outgoing data.
Stop bit
The last character transmitted is the stop bit. The stop bit provides a single bit
period pause to allow the receiver to prepare to re-synchronize to the start of a
new transmission (start bit of next byte). The receiver then continuously looks
for the occurrence of the start bit. If 7 data bits and no parity is selected, then 2
stop bits are sent from the meter.

attempting to calibrate the meter. When recalibration is required (generally
every 2 years), it should only be performed by qualified technicians using
appropriate equipment. Calibration does not change any user programmed
parameters. However, it will affect the accuracy of the input signal and the

Preparation for Current, Volt, and Ohm Input Calibration
Warning: Input Calibration of this meter requires a signal source
capable of producing a signal greater than or equal to the range
being calibrated with an accuracy of 0.01% or better.
Before starting, verify that the Input Range, T/V, and Excitation Jumper is set
for the range to be calibrated. Verify that the precision signal source is connected
and ready. Allow a 30 minute warm-up period before calibrating the meter.
Selecting NO at any calibration step, will cause the unit to maintain the existing
calibration parameters for that step. Selecting YES and pressing the P key will
cause the unit to store new calibration settings for the range selected. Pressing
D at any time will exit programming mode, but any range that has been
calibrated will maintain the new settings.

Preparation for TC calibration
TC calibration parameters will affect RTD calibration. If using an RTD, it is
recommended that the RTD calibration be performed after completing the TC
calibration.
Warning: TC Input Calibration of this meter requires a signal source
capable of producing a 60 mV signal with an accuracy of 0.01%
or better.
Before starting, verify the T/V jumper is in the T position. Verify the precision
signal source is connected and ready. Allow a 30 minute warm-up period before
calibrating the meter. Selecting NO at any calibration step, will cause the unit to
maintain the existing calibration parameters for that step. Selecting YES and
pressing P key will cause the unit to store new calibration settings for the range
selected. Pressing D at any time will exit programming mode, but any range that
has been calibrated will maintain the new settings.

9. Press P. Display will indicate ---- on Line 2 as the unit reads and stores the
new calibration parameter.
10. TC Calibration complete.
Preparation for RTD Input Calibration
RTD calibration is dependent on TC calibration parameters. Therefore, the
TC calibration should be performed prior to attempting the RTD calibration.
Warning: RTD Input Calibration of this meter requires a signal
source capable of producing a 300 ohm resistance with an
accuracy of 0.01% or better.
Before starting, verify that the T/V Jumper is in the T position. Verify the
RTD jumper is in the proper range. Verify the precision signal source is
connected and ready. Allow a 30 minute warm-up period before calibrating the
meter. Selecting NO at any calibration step, will cause the unit to maintain the
existing calibration parameters for that step. Selecting YES and pressing P key
will cause the unit to store new calibration settings for the range selected.
Pressing D at any time will exit programming mode, but any range that has been
calibrated will maintain the new settings.

calibrated.
Ice Point Calibration Procedure
1. Remove all option cards.
2. Verify ambient temperature of meter environment is between 20°C and 30°C.
3. Set T/V jumper in the T position.
4. Connect a thermocouple with an accuracy of 1°C or better to the meter.
5. In Module 1 of unit programming, verify Input Range (rANgE) is set to the type
thermocouple connected in step 4, Temperature Scale (SCALE) is °C, Ice Point
Compensation (ICE) is turned ON, Decimal Resolution (dECPNt) is 0.0,
Rounding Increment (round) is 0.1 and Display Offset (OFFSEt) is set to 0.
6. Place the thermocouple in close thermal contact to a reference thermometer
probe. (Use a reference thermometer with an accuracy of 0.25% °C or better.)
The two probes should be shielded from air movement and allowed sufficient
time to equalize in temperature. (A calibration bath could be used in place of
the thermometer.)
7. If a difference exits between DP63100 display and reference thermometer,
continue calibration.
8. Note the DP63100 display reading as the “Display Mode” reading to be used
in Step 12.
9. Enter Module 9, select CodE 48 and press P.
10. Select ICE and press P.
11. Display will indicate the Existing ICE Point Value.
12. Calculate a new ICE Point Value using: Existing ICE Point Value +
(reference temperature – Display Mode reading). All values are in °C.
13. Using ! and @ change Existing ICE Point Value to indicate the new ICE
Point Value calculated in Step 12.
14. Press P and return to Display Mode. Verify the Display Mode reading (with
0 Display Offset) matches the reference temperature. If not, repeat steps 8
thru 14.
Preparation for Analog Output Card Calibration
