5.5.13 Changing the base units (on the 3102/3105)
Screen display: b.unit
Default: metric (m) or imperial (ft)
The transmitter may be re-configured to operate in a choice of base units:
meters
feet
inches
Note
If the base units are changed, the transmitter automatically re-starts as if it was a new
instrument on first power-up, but will default to the chosen base units and load factory default
values into all other parameters.
Note
This menu option is in the engineering menu “Eng”. See “Accessing the engineering menu (on
the 3102/3105)” on page 62 or see Figure C-5 on page 106 for a map of the menu structure.
To change the base units
1. After entering the “Eng” menu (see the note above), press the green button
repeatedly until “b.unit” is indicated.
2. Press the blue button
to enter the base units selection menu.
The display indicates the present base units on the bottom display line.
3. If these base units are correct, press the red button
and then press the green button
to get to the next menu option. Otherwise, continue with step (4).
4. Press the blue button
to start the editing mode. The base units flash to indicate they
can be edited.
5. Press the green button
repeatedly to scroll through the three options.
6. Press the blue button
to confirm the selected base units. (The flashing stops.)
7. If the new setting is correct, press the red button
to save. The transmitter
automatically re-starts as if it was a new instrument on first power-up
(see “What happens when powering up the transmitter” on page 25).
If the new setting is incorrect, press the blue button
to exit to the menu. The menu
option “b.unit” re-appears allowing you to re-start at step (2), or press the green button
and then the blue button to resume the PV display.
