PART 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Description This device can be purchased as monitor (read process value only) or as a controller. • The iLD Big Display controller offers unparalleled flexibility in process measurement. Each unit allows the user to select the input type, from 10 thermocouple types (J, K, T, E, R, S, B, C, N and J DIN), Pt RTDs (100, 500 or 1000 , with either 385 or 392 curve), DC voltage, or DC current.
1.2 Safety Considerations This device is marked with the international caution symbol. It is important to read this manual before installing or commissioning this device as it contains important information relating to Safety and EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility). This instrument is protected in accordance with Class I of EN 61010 (110/240 AC power connections).
1.3 Before You Begin Inspecting Your Shipment: Remove the packing slip and verify that you have received everything listed. Inspect the container and equipment for signs of damage as soon as you receive the shipment. Note any evidence of rough handling in transit.

The instrument determines Scale and Offset values based on two user-provided input values entered with the corresponding readings.
Conversion number is a coefficient of conversion between input values and real full display range (10000 counts, shown as 9999). See Table 3.2 below for proper conversion number. Table 3.2 Conversion Table RANGE CONVERSION NUMBER 100 mV 10000 / (100 x 1) = 100 10000 / (1000 x 1) = 10 10 V 10000 / (1000 x 10) = 1...
