2.1 V/mA (Measure mode)
The PC6-IDOS can measure voltage or current and simply
display it or convert it using the ‘Converted, Setup’ options
and then display the measured value via a conversion factor.
• Select menu 2 by pressing the key twice.
• Select V or mA by pressing the key and then press
(e.g. mA is selected).
• The following options will appear, as shown below:
• Select ‘Measure’ using the key and press the key
2.1.1 Zero:
2.1.2 FS (Full Scale):
2.1.3 Text:
• Select 'Zero' using the key and then press the key.
• Using the keys and the key, change the
value of the converted zero. Press the key to finish
editing.
• From the setup menu select 'FS' using the key and
then press the key.
• As with the 'Zero' above, set the conversion factor for a full
scale input using the keys and the key.
Press the key to finish editing.
The ‘Text’ function is used for changing the displayed units
when the ‘converted’ (see 1.11 on page 15) option is selected.
If 20 mA is being measured from a device then this could be
converted and displayed as pressure in bar for example.
e.g. 4.00 mA will be
converted to 0.00 bar
e.g. Full Scale 20mA will
be converted to 10 bar
(6 characters max.)
2.1.4 Root:
• Select ‘Root’ using the key and press the key.
• Select ‘On’ or ‘Off’ using the key and press the key.
With ‘On’ selected, any measurements will be displayed having
the root function applied until ‘Off’ is next selected.
Due to display constraints, the six character ‘Text’ readout
will be shortened to display the first three characters when the
‘Root’ function is switched on. ‘Root’ function is available in both
Actual and Converted modes.
