2. Now you are in the run mode and the transducer is connected to
the meter. Simulate two loads on the transducer and record the
meter display as “INPUT1” and “INPUT2” and record what
each of these readings (“READ 1” and “READ 2”) should display
on a piece of scrap paper or in the space provided below. These
numbers will be the INPUT values entered in the “IN.SC.OF”
scaling. Normally the two points that are calibrated are the no
load condition and 3/4 full scale. However, you may use any two
measurements.
“INPUT1” “INPUT2”
“READ 1” “READ 2”
Assume that you simulate no load and the display indicates “13”,
and when you simulate 160 PSI the display indicates “80567”.
The following data will now be entered into the 2-point scaling
“IN.SC.OF” method.
“INPUT1”: 13 “READ 1”: 000000
“INPUT2”: 80567 “READ 2”: 000160
Proceed back into the set up mode and follow the flowchart below
entering the values in the submenus shown.
