  • Page 16: Operation Features

    Normal Display Operation The PSD has a full 7 digit display, which can be scaled using the calibration menu to suit the application it is to be used in. The display can display the instantaneous, peak or trough values. It is also possible to hold the display value (this only operates when not in peak or trough mode).
  • Page 17: Hold Button

    PEAK Button When pressed this button puts the PSD into peak mode. This will display the highest display reading and hold it on the display until it is reset or a higher value is reached. To reset the peak display, press the peak and trough buttons simultaneously.

    The benefit is that the battery life, based on a 350Ω sensor bridge being connected, increases from 45 hours to 450 hours. It is also important to remember that when the PSD is re-calibrated with a sensor, the power save facility will be automatically turned off. The power save facility will therefore need to be re-activated after calibration has been completed.

    If however, a higher sensitivity sensor is used with the PSD, it will be necessary to gain access to the internal PCB (you must turn the PSD off) to move link LK1 to JP1 (see picture below) to allow the PSD to accept sensitivities of up to 50mV/V.

    PSD automatically. If this is not possible, then the sensitivity figure (in mV/V) from the sensor calibration certificate can be used to scale the PSD, by using the tAbLE calibration.

    1. Ensure that the factory settings for gain and offset are set to 1 and 0, respectively. See millivolt per volt calibration section to do this. 2. Begin by connecting up the model PSD and a high precision Multimeter to the calibration source set at 2.5mV/V with a 350Ω load.
