Selecting pressure units The units for pressure is selected with the parameter "Select Pressure Unit". After
selecting new pressure units all information on the pressure are converted into the new
units.
Example: After selecting the units "psi" the measuring range from 0…10 bar is converted
in 0…145.5 psi.
Calibration without
reference pressure
A pressure for the bargraph zero and span is entered into the device. No particular
pressure must be acting.

Calibration with
reference pressure
An acting reference pressure or process pressure corresponds exactly to the desired
bargraph zero and span.

Bias pressure
If the display (when present) does not display zero after calibration when the process
pressure p
e
= 0, then it can be corrected to zero by registering the bias pressure.

Pressure output in % If it is desired that 0...100% pressure is output via Foundation Fieldbus, then the
parameter "Linearization" has to be set to "level linear". The zero and span of the
Foundation Fieldbus-Signal are automatically assigned the values 0% and 100%.
