SWITCHABLE RESOLUTION (Mode M13) [S]
Resolution can be selected per the resolution table Ref: (Section 5.5, page 21). From
0.00001in to 0.01in (0.0002 to 0.2mm) depending on the indicator unit.
MULTIPLIER (Mode M3)
Allows the indicator to display a reading that is a multiple of the scale movement. Any mul-
tiplier from 00.001 to 99.999 may be entered to satisfy ratio type applications. For exam-
ple, if the multiplier is 2.00000, and the scale is moved 0.10000, the unit will display 0.200.
Multipliers less than 1.000
Using a multiplier less than 1 (one) will reduce the displayed resolution. For example: given
a multiplier of 0.01 and a resolution of 0.0001, the digital display will convert the scale loca-
tion of 0.1575 to 0.0016.
Additional resolution selections are available that allow the user to display a smaller resolu-
tion than that provided by the scale. Using the previous example with a resolution of
0.00001, the display value will be 0.00158, preserving more of the indicator’s resolution.
Non-Integer Multiplier
A non-integer multiplier will also cause the count size to be different from the resolution.
Normally, the least significant digit changes by the resolution. When a multiplier of 11.3333
is used with a resolution of 0.00005, the step size will be 0.00057. It is recommended that
the resolution be greater than the step size. For our example we would suggest 0.001.
Multipliers greater than 1.000:
Using a multiplier greater than 1 (one) will increase the display resolution. For example,
given a multiplier of 10.000 and a resolution of 0.0001, the digital display will convert the
scale location of 0.1575 to 1.5750. In this case, the least significant digit will be created by
the multiplication and not from the scale. In this case, the resolution should be changed
until the least significant digit is derived from the scale. In the example, the resolution
should be changed to 0.001. With this resolution, the digital readout will display 1.575.
