Adjusting the sight window
The sight window in the transmitter housing cover enables the user to
view the LCD on the electronics module inside the housing. After the
cover has been put in place, the sight window might not be properly
aligned for viewing the display. To align the sight window, rotate the
adjustable faceplate in either direction until the entire display is visible.
Micro Motion recommends mounting the transmitter with its conduit
openings pointed downward. In such installations, the sight window will
be properly aligned when it is directly above the Scroll and Reset knobs.
Process variables mode
After power to the transmitter is turned off and on, or "cycled," the
transmitter is in the process variables mode. The first screen that
appears is the last process variable screen that was viewed before
power was cycled. In the process variables mode, each screen indicates
the value and measurement unit for a process variable.
As the user scrolls through the process variable screens, they appear in
the order listed in
Table 6-1
, page 53.
CAUTION
Rotating the transmitter housing cover or adjustable
faceplate could cause the display to change, the
flowmeter to be zeroed, or totalizers to be reset.
Rotating the transmitter cover actuates the Scroll and
Reset knobs, which will affect the screen that is displayed,
and could zero the flowmeter or reset the transmitter flow
totalizers.
Do not rotate the transmitter housing cover or adjust the
faceplate while RATE, TOT, or INV screens are displayed.
Security settings that prevent the use of scroll and reset
knobs also prevent this situation from occurring. See
Section 2.3
, page 5.
