    Digital AVC Instruction Manual 3. Vacuum Gauge Operation Front Panel This section describes the primary operation of the user interface. See section 3.4 for operation in other modes. 3.1.1. Pressure Graph This shows a general indication of current pressure within the measurable range. If the pressure is higher than the measurable range, the graph flashes and displays an arrow on the right end.

    Changes the pressure units and functions as the down key in adjustment modes. Electrical Connector Teledyne Hastings vacuum gauge tubes interface with the HPM 4/5/6 via the included octal connector. The connector is “keyed” so that proper connection is assured (only fits the correct orientation). Always grip the connector by its cover and not the cable when plugging or unplugging.

    User Options and Adjustments 3.4.1. Auto-Shutoff In order to maximize battery life, the HPM 4/5/6 will automatically power down after about 5 minutes. To temporarily disable this behavior, hold the power button down at power up until “AUTO OFF DISABLED” is displayed.
  • Page 14: Calibration

    Digital AVC Instruction Manual Calibration The HPM 4/5/6 is calibrated for all three tube types (DV-4, DV-5, and DV-6) at the factory. This ensures valid readings will be displayed for each tube type when delivered. The user may re-calibrate the HPM 4/5/6 if desired using either a reference tube or a vacuum gauge tube at a known vacuum using the instructions below.
  • Page 15: Thermal Coefficient

    Digital AVC Instruction Manual Thermal Coefficient The HPM 4/5/6 generates an AC heating voltage using an internal transformer. This heating voltage is supplied to the vacuum tube to warm up the thermocouples in order to measure the pressure. As the ambient temperature increases or decreases the internal resistance of the copper winding in the transformer also changes.
