FEATURES
User interface
A front panel push button switch combined with four
touch switches allows easy configuration of the indicator
(calibration, span, zero and engineering units).
Root extraction
For applications where the process variable is non-linear
and based on the square root, 3/2 root or 5/2 root, the
MLX can be configured to display the root function of the
input.
Field Configurable
Via the front panel user interface, the process variable
parameters can be modified as desired in the field.
LCD Display features
The LCD display includes a bar graph for an analog
indication of the process variable magnitude. The 6 digit
display and 6 character display (combined with several
symbols) give an instant view of all process variable
parameters. A menu system allows customizing
parameters such as decimal point position, engineering
units, status of symbols and state of bar graph.
Self-diagnostics
Built-in diagnostics operate at power-up and during
operation for ease of maintenance and troubleshooting.
