Damping

Fast Keys
The Damping command introduces a delay in processing which increases the response time of
the transmitter; smoothing variations in output readings caused by rapid input changes. In the
3051S Wireless pressure transmitter, damping only takes effect when the device is placed in
high power refresh mode and during calibration. In normal power mode, the effective damping
is 0. Note that when the device is in high power refresh mode, battery power will be depleted
rapidly. Determine the appropriate damp setting based on the necessary response time, signal
stability, and other requirements of the loop dynamics of your system. The damping value of
your device is user selectable from 0 to 60 seconds.
