Since the interfacebetween the calibrator and the module is digital all the accuracy anddisplay resolution is derived from the...

6. Performing a Pressure Switch Test Figure 10 To perform a switch test, follow these steps: 1. Change the setup to Setup 4 (default switch test). Setup 4: The upper display is set to [P1] ST, all other displaysare off. Important NOTE: The pressure Switch Test can be performed with the following fun...

17 9. Press the “NEW TEST” option to clear the data and performanother test. 10. Press the “DONE” option to end the test and return to the standard pressure setting. Example: [P1] ST will return to [P1]. Important NOTE: The previous example uses a normally closed switch. The basic procedure is still...

18 7.2 Calibrating a Pressure-to-Current Transmitter To calibrate a pressure-to-current transmitter (P/I), perform thefollowing steps: 1. Connect the calibrator and the pump to the transmitter. 2. Apply pressure with the pump. 3. Measure the current output of the transmitter. 4. Ensure the reading i...

22 Setup 3: The upper display is set to [P1] mode and the middle is set to [VOLTS] mode, lower is off. Setup 4: The upper display is set to [P1], the lower display is set to [EXT]. Setup 5: The upper display is set to [P1], and the lower display is set to mA Loop.

23 9. Remote Operation 9.1 Remote Interface The calibrator can be remotely controlled using a PC terminal, or bya computer program running the calibrator in an automated system.It uses an RS-232 serial port connection for remote operation. NOTE: To use the remote control option a custom RS-232cable ...
