MT5000-0200-1 Rev f (10-2010) DCN0528 18
4.4 QUICK CALIBRATION
After the BASIC SETUP menu items have been entered, the MT5000 will be operational. The 4 milliamp output point
of the transmitter will be set at the 0 measurement point and the 20 milliamp point will be set at the highest meas-
ured value. The location of the 4 and 20 milliamp points will be determined by the Measurement Mode. If the probe
is measuring the level of the process accurately but is not returning the desired milliamp output, it is possible to
quickly recalibrate the MT5000 based on the measured level from the transmitter.
Setting the 4 milliamp output.
1. Raise or lower the liquid level to the desired 4 milliamp point.
2. Press the UP and DOWN buttons on the MT5000 at the same time.
3. Press the DOWN button to set the 4 milliamp point.
Setting the 20 milliamp output.
1. Raise or lower the liquid level to the desired 20 milliamp point.
2. Press the UP and DOWN buttons on the MT5000 at the same time.
3. Press the UP button to set the 20 milliamp point.
The MT5000 will now be fully operational. If a further detailed setup is required you may proceed to the mA OUT-
PUT menu, or the Extended Setup menu. If the output of the MT5000 is required to match that of another device, the
following alternate procedure may be used.
Setting the 4 milliamp output.
1. Raise or lower the liquid level to the 4 milliamp point of the primary transmitter.
2. Press the UP and DOWN buttons on the MT5000 at the same time.
3. Press the DOWN button to set the 4 milliamp point.
Setting the 20 milliamp output.
1. Raise or lower the liquid level to the 20 milliamp point of the primary transmitter .
2. Press the UP and DOWN buttons on the MT5000 at the same time.
3. Press the UP button to set the 20 milliamp point.
