• Setup
General
Inputs to the unit are analogue current or voltage type. They are rated
for measuring category III signals with a voltage of 300 V
eff
to earth.
The input and output type are jumper selectable and their ranges are
set by the values used during calibration.
• Calibration
General
All instruments are calibrated before leaving the factory and should not
need adjustment unless a change of range is required or until the next
scheduled calibration.
Equipment requirements
• A suitable DC Power Supply
• A suitable DC mA or Voltage source
A
n accurate digital multimeter (accurate to 0.05 mV and ±1 μA)
Procedure
1
. Remove the instrument from the case and confirm that the jumpers
are in the correct positions for the input and output type required.
2. Connect up the instrument.
3
. Press the UP and DOWN buttons together. The Status LED will turn
Red to indicate that the unit is in calibration mode.
4
. Set the input source to the minimum value required, e.g., 4 mA for
4-20 mA inputs.
5.
Adjust the output value using the up and down keys until the
multimeter shows the output value required at minimum input, e.g., 4
mA for a 4-20 mA output.
6
. When you are satisfied with the output, press the ENT button. The
middle LED will switch on to indicate that you are calibrating the
maximum input and corresponding output values.
