INSTALLATION
There is no need to remove the meter from its case to complete the installation, wiring, and setup of the meter.
Unpacking
Remove the meter from box. Inspect the packaging and contents for damage. Report damages, if any, to the carrier.
If any part is missing or the meter malfunctions, please contact
your supplier or the factory for assistance.
Panel Mounting
Prepare a standard 1/8 DIN panel cutout – 3.622" x 1.772" (92 mm
x 45 mm). Refer to Mounting Dimensions, page 29 for more details.
Clearance: allow at least 4" (102 mm) behind the panel for wiring.
Panel thickness: 0.04" - 0.25" (1.0 mm - 6.4 mm).
Recommended minimum panel thickness to maintain Type 4X
rating: 0.06" (1.5 mm) steel panel, 0.16" (4.1 mm) plastic panel.
Remove the two mounting brackets provided with the meter (back-off
the two screws so that there is ¼" (6.4 mm) or less through the
bracket. Slide the bracket toward the front of the case and remove).
Insert meter into the panel cutout.
Install mounting brackets and tighten the screws against the panel.
To achieve a proper seal, tighten the mounting bracket screws
evenly until meter is snug to the panel along its short side. DO NOT
OVER TIGHTEN, as the rear of the panel may be damaged.

SETUP AND PROGRAMMING
There is no need to recalibrate the meter
when first received from the factory.
The meter is factory calibrated prior to
shipment, for all input types, in milliamps and
volts. The calibration equipment is certified to
NIST standards.
Overview
There are no jumpers involved in the setup process of the meter. The
switch, located between the SIGNAL and the RJ11 connectors is not
used with the PD603 model. Setup and programming is done through
the front panel buttons.
After power and signal connections have been completed and verified,
apply power to the meter.

Programming the Meter (prog)
It is very important to read the following information, before proceeding
to program the meter:
There is no need to recalibrate the meter when first received from
the factory.
The meter is factory calibrated prior to shipment, for all input
types, in milliamps and volts. The calibration equipment is certified
to NIST standards.
Use the Scale menu to scale process inputs (e.g. 4-20 mA). A cali-
brated signal source is not needed to scale the meter.
The Program menu contains the Calibrate and the Scale menus.
Process inputs may be calibrated or scaled to any display within the
range of the meter.

Page 22
Sabre P Model PD603 Process Meter Instruction Manual
Scaling the Meter (ScAL)
The process inputs (4-20 mA and 10 VDC) can be scaled to display
the process in engineering units.
A signal source is not needed to scale the meter; simply program the
inputs and corresponding display values.

Error Message (Err)
An error message indicates that the calibration or scaling process was
not successful.
After the error message is displayed, the meter reverts to input 1, allowing the appropriate input signals to be applied.
The error message might be caused by any of the following conditions:
1. Input signal is not connected to the proper terminals or it is con-
nected backwards.
2. Wrong signal selection in Setup menu.
3. Minimum input span requirements not maintained.
4. Input 1 signal inadvertently applied to calibrate input 2.
Minimum Input Span
The minimum input span is the minimum difference between input 1 and
input 2 signals required to complete the calibration or scaling of the meter.

Calibrating the Meter (Cal)
To scale the meter without a signal
source refer to Scaling the Meter
(ScAL), page 22.
The meter can be calibrated to display the process in engineering units
by applying the appropriate input signal and following the calibration
procedure.
The use of a calibrated signal source is strongly recommended to calibrate the meter.

If the password entered is incorrect, the meter displays LoCd (Locked)
for about two seconds, then it returns to Run Mode. To try again, press
Enter/Ack while the Locked message is displayed.
Forgot the Password?
The password may be disabled by the following
procedure:
1. Note display reading prior to pressing the Menu

OPERATION
For process inputs, the meter is capable of accepting positive and negative signals and displaying these signals in engineering units from -1999
