Value will increase up from zero until reach to the existing save data no. SEnd Then LCD will change to the following screen. The data no. that are saved into the memory. 15728 Balance of empty data no. * During send the data out, if pressing the " Send button " ( 3-6, Fig.
7. OFFSET ADJUSTMENT 7-1 Type K, Type J offset adjustment 1) Set the function to Type K ( Type J ). 2)Insert the probe to the T1 input socket. 3) Pressing " Offset button " ( 3-8, Fig. 1 ) continuously at least two seconds then release, the display will show : SP-t...
7-2 Pt 100 ohm offset adjustment 1)Set the function to Pt 100 ohm. 2)Insert the Pt 100 ohm probe to the PT1 ( PT2 ) input socket. 3)Pressing " Offset button " ( 3-8, Fig. 1 ) continuously at least two seconds then release, the display will show : SP-t 4)Pressing "...
* Use the " button "( 3-5, Fig. 1 ) " button " ( 3-7, ▲ ▼ Fig. 1 ) to adjust the desiring value on right bottom display. * Pressing " Enter button " ( 3-4, Fig. 1 ) once, both bottom display will flashing 4 times then return to normal measuring screen and finish the offset adjustment procedure.
9. RS232 PC SERIAL INTERFACE The instrument has RS232 PC serial interface via " RS 232 out terminal " 3.5 mm terminal ( 3-12, Fig. 1 ). The data output is a 16 digit stream which can be utilized for user's specific application. A RS232 lead with the following connection will be required to link the instrument with the PC serial port.
Page 22
Each digit indicates the following status : Start Word = 02 Function : T1, T2, T3, T4 When send the T1 value, D13 = 1 When send the T2 value, D13 = 2 When send the T3 value, D13 = 3 When send the T4 value, D13 = 4 Function : T1, T2, T1-T2 When send the T1 value, D13 = 1...
10. BATTERY REPLACEMENT 1)When the left corner of LCD display show " ", it is necessary to replace the battery. However, in-spec. measurement may still be made for several hours after low battery indicator appears before the instrument become inaccurate. 2)Open the "...
