Page 47: Section 4 Basic Concepts And Approaches To Setup And Configuration
4. Basic Concepts and Approaches to Setup and Configuration Your application and what you need to accomplish will dictate setup and configuration of the meter. This section shows you how the meter works; it contains information that will help you see how your meter can best be connected to peripheral devices, or to resets and alarms.
Page 48: Using Scale Factors
When any mode-associated measurement (except TIME) is on the display, the corresponding Measurement LED is lit. The first measurement in any mode (RATE, SQ RT, or BATCH) corre- sponds to the top LED. The factory preset operating mode of the meter is Rate. The factory preset Rate units are Hertz–cycles per second–which the meter interprets as pulses per second.
Page 49: Overflow Values And Exponential Format
reading to 0. It provides a quick way to “wipe out” scale factors and offsets so that they can be reconfigured easily. This feature is enabled by setting configuration choice CF4.8 to 1. (See Section 5.4.2.) 4.6 OVERFLOW VALUES AND EXPONENTIAL FORMAT If your source signal units are Hertz, the meter is counting many pulses every second.

Page 91: Determining The Rate Scale (Rte Sc)
5.5.1 DETERMINING THE RATE SCALE (RTE SC) TOTAL is not used in a shaft-speed application, no digital commu- nications are used, and the example has no Analog Output. Therefore, many associated parameters will not be used. The first step in this application is to decide what units you want the meter to display.
Page 92 INPUT 1 = 0 READ 1 = 0 INPUT 2 = 100000 READ 2 = 100000 5. Set RTE DP to RRRRR.R (Section 5.4.6). This gives 0.1 RPM resolution. Ignore any ERR 02 message. This indicates a setpoint overflow that can easily be corrected when or if you set setpoints later. 6.

Page 96: Section 6 Operating The Meter
6. Operating the Meter This section contains simple instructions for operating the meter in different modes. Once your meter is configured and power is applied, it will start to operate in Run Mode immediately. Operating it is very simple. 6.1 RATE MODE The meter can display four different measurements in Rate Mode: RATE, AVG RT (Average Rate), TOTAL, and TIME.
Page 97: Sq Rt Mode
6.2 SQ RT MODE The meter can display four different measurements in Sq Rt Mode: SQ RT, AVG RT (Average Rate), TOTAL, and TIME. 1. To display any one of these measurement values, press the L /DISPLAY button button and wait. The meter will flash the name of the measurement briefly, then display the corresponding value.
Page 98 2. To reset measurement values and associated latched alarms, perform the following resets: a. RESET-A to reset the BATCH count and unlatch BATCH latched alarms b. RESET-B to reset the BAT NO and unlatch BAT NO latched alarms c. RESET-C to reset the TOTAL, unlatch TOTAL latched alarms, and reset TIME as configured by the SET TI value You can also press the front-panel RESET button.
