Page 5: Introduction
Fig. 1: Typical application for the F151-A. Configuration of the unit The F151-A was designed to be implemented in many types of applications. For that reason, a SETUP-level is available to configure your F151-A according to your specific requirements. SETUP includes several important features, such as Span, measurement units, signal selection etc. - Page 6 Page 6 Display information The unit has a large transflective LCD with all kinds of symbols and digits to display measuring units, status information, trend-indication and key-word messages. The measured pressure of each line can be displayed one by one or simultaneously. Options Following options are available: full Modbus communication RS232/485 (also battery powered), intrinsic safety, power- and sensor-supply options, panel-mount, wall-mount and weather-proof...

Page 8: Operator Information And Functions
Page 8 2.3. OPERATOR INFORMATION AND FUNCTIONS In general, the pressure indicator will always act at Operator level. The information displayed depends on the SETUP-settings. Although the refresh-rate of the display might be slow (due to power-management functions), the sensor signals will be processed at all times. After pressing a key, the display will be updated very fast during 30 seconds after which it will slow-down again. -

Each function has a unique number, which is displayed below the word "SETUP" at the bottom of the display. The number is a combination of two figures. The first figure indicates the function-group and the second figure the function.

Page 15: Power Management
When used with the internal battery option, the user may hold the concern of reliable measurement over a long period of time. The F151-A has several smart power management functions to extend the battery life time significantly. Two of these functions can be set:... - Page 16 FILTER The analog output signal of a sensor does mirror the actual pressure. This signal is measured several times a second by the F151-A. The value measured is a "snap-shot" of the real pressure as it will be fluctuating. With the help of this digital filter a stable and accurate reading can be obtained while the filter level can be set to a desired value.
