Press the INFO key again to display the 4-20mA calibration figures. Analog Scaling Factor The Scaling Factor is a method of adjusting the 4-20mA profile by using a multiplication factor. Press +/- from the HOME screen to access the scaling factor. Use the +/- keys to enter a multiplication factor.
Page 70
Press SELECT once you have chosen the required factor. Press ACCEPT to confirm the new 4-20mA PROFILE figures. This will not alter the stored A and B points, the multiplication factor will re- scale the 4- 20mA profile. To re- set the original flow rates re-set the multiplication factor to 1.00.
Page 71
The speed limit function takes precedence over the scaling factor. For example if the qdos20 4-20mA profile is 0% flow at 4mA to 100% flow at 20mA and a speed limit of 33 rpm is applied, followed by a scaling factor of 0.5, then the output will be 30%. If a scaling factor of 2 is applied in the same scenario then the output will be 33 rpm or 60%, as the speed limit takes precedence over the scaling factor.
19.1 Calibrate the pump for 4-20mA control (Universal+ only) This feature is only available in the Universal+ model. The pump must be stopped before attempting to calibrate the 4-20mA values. High and low signals must be within range. If the signal sent is out of range you will not be able to set the signal input value and progress to the next step in the process.

Contact Mode (All Universal and Universal+ models except 110V relay versions) In this operating mode the pump will meter a specific dose of fluid when an external pulse is received. The dose volume is a user defined value between 0.1ml and 999l. 20.1 Contact settings To setup contact mode, firstly you will need to define the settings.
Page 78
Use NEXT to move the selection bar to the next setting. Use +/- to alter the value of the highlighted setting: The contact dose is the volume of fluid the pump will dispense when an external pulse is received on input pin 2. The flow rate will determine the time taken to complete each dose.
20.2 Contact operating mode (All Universal and Universal+ models except 110V relay versions) To enter contact mode press the MODE key, move the selection bar to Contact, and press SELECT. The contact mode home screen will be displayed. The home screen displays the contact dose, the flow rate, and the dose time remaining when a dose is in progress.
Pulse dosing as an operation mode has its limitations. From an application perspective it is often not the most efficient method of achieving concentration consistency due to the pump only metering when a pulse is received, as opposed to continuously running in proportion to the flow.
Page 81
If the pump is already running then the following screen will be displayed. The pump must be stopped before it can be reversed to recover fluid. Press STOP PUMP. An instruction is now displayed. There is a warning to ensure that your system design permits reverse flow.
