1.9 Setting Up Inputs/Outputs
Set up the GF868’s inputs and outputs using the four options in the I/O submenu. While following the programming
instructions, refer to Figure 12 on page 88.
• ERROR - program the meter’s response during an error condition
• OPTN - set up the Slot 0 analog outputs and any option cards
• ZERO - set the meter’s zero point cutoff value
• T,P - set up the temperature and pressure inputs
Enter the
I/O submenu by pressing [F4] at the initial User Program screen. Then press [F1]-[F4] to select the desired I/O
option.
Note: In this section, a slot’s number will appear on the option bar only if an option card is installed in that slot. The
generic designations Slot x and Fx are used to indicate any one of the expansion slots and the function key used
to select it.
Proceed to the appropriate section to program the option selection made at the above prompt. Remember to record all
programmed data in Appendix B, Data Records.
1.9.1 Selecting Error Handling
This menu option permits programming of the manner in which the Model GF868’s totalizers respond during an error
condition. See Chapter 2, Error Codes and Screen Messages, of the Service Manual for a discussion of the built-in
error codes.
1. At the I/O prompt, press [F1] = Error.
2. Press [F1] if you want the GF868 to Hold the last “good” reading and continues to totalize, based on that reading, or
press [F2], No Up, if you want the meter to stop totalizing.
