    1. Introduction The Ametek Jofra CSC200 is designed to calibrate a wide range of thermocouple and RTD devices. It can source or measure up to 14 different thermocouple (TC) types (including millivolts) and up to 17 RTD types (including ohms). A unique digital "knob" along with selectable decade controls allows quick and easy adjustment of the desired output.

  • Page 8: Power Saver

    2.3 Power Saver The calibrator has an adjustable power saver option that allows it to shut down after being dormant for a period of 1 to 30 minutes. To set the shutoff time, perform the following: 1. With the CSC200 turned off, hold down the left arrow key and turn on the power.
  • Page 9 3.1 CJC Control To disable the CJC proceed with the following steps: 1) With the unit turned off press and hold the I/O key. 2) Turn on the unit while still holding down the I/O key. 3) Approximately 5 seconds after power up release the I/O key. The CJC off annunciator will be displayed on the LCD when operated in the TC mode.
  • Page 10 3) Press the "I/O" key to select the input mode. 4) Rotate the knob to select the 2, 3, or 4 wire mode. Be sure the connections made match the input mode selected. Annunciators on the LCD will indicate which wire mode is selected. Figure 3 RTD Output (simulate) Operation To operate the CSC200 in the output mode refer to Figure 4 for proper output...
  • Page 11 Figure 4 5. User Defined Setpoints One of the unique and time saving features of the CSC200 is the ability to store user defined setpoints for all output functions. Up to 3 setpoints can be stored for each of the 14 TC and 17 RTD functions. Stored setpoints will remain in non-volatile memory until changed by the operator.

    4) Setpoint 1 is the starting default location. You can turn the knob to change the location (i.e. Setpoint 1, 2, 3). 5) Once a setpoint location has been chosen, press the "Set" key again to store the output value into that location. 6) Repeat this process for more setpoints (up to three) 7) To recall setpoints simply press the "Recall"...
