1.1 Function and configuration

The display is a digital indicating instrument without auxiliary energy for mounting to pres­sure transmitters D84 / D85 with LC-display for digital and quasianalogue demonstration.
Function
The display enables the indication of values between -9999 and 9999. The decimal point can be shifted. The indicated unit can be chosen individually.
Configuration
The display can be connected to any active 4 … 20 mA-output. It is suitable for looping into the 4 … 20 mA­signal line of sensors or for connection to all signal conditioning instruments VEGAMET with analogue output 4 … 20 mA or to the processing system VEGALOG with analogue output card (AA).

1.2 Technical data

Ambient conditions
Ambient temperature -10°C … +70°C Storage and transport temperature -40°C … +85°C Temperature er ror 0,1%/10K (I= 16 mA)
Input
Transmission analogue, 4 … 20 mA Max. input current 150 mA Connection line to the sensor 2-wire Voltage loss 4,5 V at 20 mA
Deviating data for certified instruments
The digital indication type AM12 can be mounted in pressure transmitter type D7. Ex, D8. Ex with integral oscillator E22 HEx, E23 HEx (2. supplement to EC-type approval TÜV 97 ATEX 1250) as well as in pr essure transmitter type D8.Ex0 with integral oscillator E22 HEx0, E 23 HEx0 (2. supplement to EC-type appr oval TÜV 97 A TEX 1249 X). The Ex-tech­nical data of the pressure transmitters with integral digital indication type AM12 change as follows: Ci 7 nF (instead of 4 nF as previously)

Set-up
Rotating switch
With the rotating switch you choose the ap­propriate mode. OPERATE indication of measured value ZERO adjustment of min. value (4 mA) END adjustment of max. value (20 mA) POINT shifting of decimal point
Plus/Minus key
With these two keys you modify the value of the digital indication. When you keep the key pushed, the digital indication changes the value in three speeds. After each 28 steps, the counting speed increases by one step.
Procedure
• Choose the required mode with the rotating switch.
• Push one of the two keys, the digital indica­tion (9) starts flashing.
• Push one of the two keys to modify the value of the digital indication appr opriately. When the rotating switch is set to "OPER­ATE" the keys have no function.
• You can save the adjusted value by modi­fying the position of the rotating switch.

3.2 Retrofitting of the display

• Remove the housing cover and switch off the voltage.
• Disconnect the instrument and remove the cable.
• Loosen the screws, remove the insert and mount the new insert.
When mounting the new insert, proceed as follows:
• For fastening of the new insert do not use the screws which you have removed be­fore, but the replacement screws supplied with the new display.
• Fasten the lower terminal insert and mount the distance pins like in fig. 2.
• Connect the instruments to terminals 1 and
2.
• Now fasten the indicating module AM12 with the screw (3).
• Connect the connection line as marked to terminals 4 and 5 (see fig. 1).
• Tighten the screw (3) in fig. 1.
• Scaling see „3.3 Adjustment“.

3.3 Adjustment

• The indication required the adjustment of the values for 4 mA and 20 mA. Proceed as follows: Set the rotating switch to position „POINT“ and push one of the keys. The digital indication starts flashing. By pushing the keys again you move the decimal point. The minus key moves the decimal point to the left, the plus key to the right.
• Set the rotating switch to position „ZERO“ and push the plus key to increase the indication value or the minus key to reduce the indication value. When you keep the key pushed the digital indication modifies the indication value in three steps with increasing speed.
• Set the rotating switch to position „END“ and push one of the keys. The digital indi­cation starts flashing. Use the keys to adjust the indication value.
• Set the rotating switch to position „OPER­ATE“. All adjusted values ar e transmitted to an EEPROM-memory and saved. They remain there even in case of a probable voltage loss.
• Screw the housing cover .
