(GAGE models only). Introduction Using microprocessor technology, the rack-mountable DLR3110 instrument offers a combination of features, performance, versatility and reliability not previously available in a single, rack-mount pressure calibration instrument. Some of the features of the DLR3110 are listed below: •...

(on GAGE models). Over-pressure protection, based on model, is provided via a fully adjustable pressure regulator which is manually set for each new device being tested. Figure 1-1 provides an overview of the DLR3110’s function. VERNIER ADJUST...
Keep original shipping carton for repacking in case repair is necessary. Repacking If the DLR3110 must be returned for repair, recalibration, or modification, be sure that it is properly cushioned and packed and that a description of the work to be performed is included. The original shipping carton should be kept for this purpose.
(5). In the normal operating mode this key is used to select and view all active displays that were enabled in the Configuration mode (i.e., Pressure data, MIN/MAX data, Freeze mode data, and delta P display mode data). DLR3110 Rack Mount Digital Pressure Calibrator Manual...
• function key (6). The AUTO TARE (Auto.tr) feature is enabled in the Configuration mode under TARE the ZERO SET selection. When AUTO TARE is enabled, pressing the key automatically tares out TARE the value of the current pressure display reading and shifts the display to the P (delta P) mode. The resultant ZERO reference reading is useful in cases where it is desirable to subtract the atmospheric pressure from an absolute reading to obtain a quick gauge reference.
The following describes the setup for connecting the optional six-digit remote display (PN 74683). The display duplicates the DLR3110 six-digit front panel display for all ranges and units selected (see Figure 2-5 on page 7). NOTE: Remote display does not show current unit or mode designation.

3. If pressure measurements above and below atmospheric pressure are required, connect a VACUUM PUMP to the VACUUM/VENT port (2) as shown in Figure 2-1 on page 3. 4. Open the VENT valve (2), close the INPUT valve (1) and apply power to the vacuum pump and allow it to evacuate the system for several minutes or until the digital display reading reaches equilibrium near 0 PSIA.
However, it must be emphasized that when performing these tests, the computer within the DLR3110 is actually being re-programmed and as such, it is imperative that the pressure standard being used is in satisfactory operating condition and that the technician fully understands its operating characteristics and methods of usage.

Serial Input/Output The DLR3110 offers easy access and configuration of two serial communication ports. Both communication ports are ASCII-compatible and thus the serial data output formats are compatible with most printers, scoreboards, or other remote serial devices. Port One may be configured for bi-directional full duplex or half duplex (duplex = two way communication) mode of operation while Port Two is restricted to a simplex output mode only (simplex = one way communication).
