USER MANUAL
SMART MANOMETER
The Smart Manometer products are microcontroller based
pressure sensing devices used to directly measure pressure.
Differential, Gauge, Absolute and Wet/Wet pressure sensors
are supported (see Specification section for supported types
and pressure ranges). Pressure can be displayed in selectable
engineering units of measure.
Features include Min/Max capture, display Hold, sensor Zero,
Leak Test, Record/View (up to 240 points), user selectable
damping and field recalibration. The manometer is powered
by four AA alkaline batteries for more than 100 hours of use.

without changing the previous setting. Pressing this key repeatedly
will return the user to the Measure Mode and then shut off the
manometer.

programmable register to be edited (with prompt for password if
Lockout is set). After the register has been edited, pressing the
PRGM key enters the new setting into the manometer’s nonvolatile memory. This key also acts as a
input such as the header name and user units.

2. Zeroing the Manometer
To zero the manometer, first turn off pressure sources and vent
pressure ports to atmosphere. The display should read close to zero.
Press the MIN/MAX and HOLD keys at the same time and then
release. This begins the zeroing process. The top line of the display
reads “ZERO IN PROGRESS” while the bottom line counts down
from 9. The process is complete when the unit returns to Measure
Mode. The lockout function, if enabled, does not interfere with the
zeroing of the manometer.
Note: The Smart Manometer can only be zeroed if the new zero
value is within +/-5% (of FS) of the original factory calibrated zero.
If the zero procedure generates a new zero value outside this limit
a “ZERO RANGE ERROR” message appears indicating that the
procedure failed.
3. Program Mode
The program mode is used to configure the manometer for
Measure Mode operation. After the PRGM key is pressed in
Measure Mode, the top line of the display reads “PROGRAM
MODE”. The bottom line reads “UNITS SELECT”. Press the
arrow keys to scroll through the Program Mode to the desired
register. The configurable registers that are found in Program
Mode are Units Select, Damp Rate Select, User Info Select,
Contrast Select, Data Logging, Leak Test and Exit. Two sub-modes under “Units Select” are provided: User Unit Select and
Flow Unit Select. Press the PRGM key to select either of these
sub-modes and set up their respective function. The manometer
can be put into Program Mode at any time during Measure Mode
operation by pressing the PRGM key. If Lockout is set, the correct
code must be entered when prompted.

User Unit Select
Engineering units not included in the standard selection can be
programmed into the manometer using the Units Select register in
the program mode. The value programmed into this register is
used to calculate the desired unit of measure. An example of
converting to “Feet of H2O” will be shown in the following steps,
using the conversation factor of 1 PSI = 2.30894 FT H2O.

Flow Unit Select
Smart Manometers that use differential pressure sensors can be
programmed to read out flow measurement units such as CFM or
L/min. The primary element must be a differential pressure square root type device such as a pitot tube, orifice plate or venturi.
The flow constant and flow units description are programmed into
the manometer using the same keystrokes used in the User Unit
Select programming. At step 3 choose “FLOW UNIT SELECT”
instead of “USER UNIT SELECT”.
Calculate the Flow constant from the following equation:
F
= Q ÷ DP
c
½
where: Fc = Flow constant
Q = Flow rate
(from flow element calculation sheet)
DP = Differential pressure corresponding to Q
Example: If the DP is 25 units when the flow rate is 10,000 units,
then the Flow constant is 2,000.
Damp Rate Select
Adjustable exponential type damping is available to steady the
display when measuring pulsating pressure or flow. The Smart
Manometer has a range of damping rates; 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10,
or 25 seconds. Exponential damping shows approximately 70% of
a step change in pressure upon the next display update. When set
