DPM-2200 SERIES DIGITAL PRESSURE METERS The Model DPM-2200 Series is a family of microprocessor-based, high-precision Pressure Meters, which are intended for use in the evaluation and servicing of a wide variety of medical, commercial and industrial applications. These meters measure compatible gas and liquid pressures in various engineering units.
ANALOG OUTPUT OPTION ADDS: • OPTION DC - DC ANALOG OUTPUT (REFRESH RATE DEPENDENT UPON DIGITAL FILTER SETTING) • OPTION HF - HIGH FREQUENCY DC ANALOG OUTPUT (ALTERNATING DC SIGNAL REPRESENTING PRESSURES ALTERNATING AT RATES UP TO 100 Hz) • BNC OUTPUT •...

SCREENS MAIN SCREENS – There can be up to five main screens, depending on the model. They are PRESSURE 1, PRESSURE 2, TEMPERATURE, COMBINED and INPUTS. The available screens can be toggled through using Pressure Port 1 Display with Min/Max Option selected Pressure Port 2 Display with Min/Max...

Input Identification Screen Note: Sensor limits are displayed based on selected range. PRESSURE SCALE – The pressure scale is indicated by the units displayed under the reading. The scale can be changed by using to highlight the unit line and to toggle between available pressure units as listed below.
Page 16
TEMPERATURE SCALE – The temperature scale is indicated by the units displayed under the reading. The scale can be changed by using to highlight the unit line and to toggle the temperature units between Degrees Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F). NOTE: If the measured temperature is outside of the range of the instrument, an OVER RANGE or UNDER RANGE message box will be displayed.

ZEROING PRESSURE SCALES – When there is no pressure applied to either port, the display should read “0.” It may be necessary to zero the pressure scales to remove any errors due to ambient conditions. This is done by pressing the key until the zeroing instructions are displayed, then pressing simultaneously to begin...
KEYS Six tactile-touch keys are provided for system operation: – This key turns the unit off and on. The unit will return to the main screen that was active when it was turned off. – In the DISPLAY MODE, these keys toggle the display through the available main screens.
Page 20
– This key toggles the unit into and out of the Setup Mode. Depressing this key will enter the Setup screen where the configuration can be viewed and adjusted. Depressing the key again will exit the Setup Mode and return to the previously viewed main screen. This will also save any changes to the internal EEPROM memory so they will be retained even with the power turned off or battery removed.
TESTING LIQUID PRESSURE Measuring pressure in liquid lines (such as during an occlusion test for infusion pumps) requires the use of a transducer protector to prevent fluids intruding into the digital pressure meter. Each DPM-2200 unit comes with the BC20-01012 Transducer Protector, Luer Kit. Failure to use a transducer protector during a liquid pressure test can result in the intrusion of fluid into the DPM which can cause damage to the digital pressure sensor.
OPTIONS ANALOG OUTPUT – The unit may be ordered with an Analog Output Option. This output can either be a Standard DC or a High Frequency DC and is provided via a BNC connector on the top of the unit. The source parameter for the analog output is selectable in the Setup Menu between Pressure 1 (Pres1), Pressure 2 (Pres2) or Temperature (Temp).
COMMUNICATIONS Since the meter does not handle a great deal of data, the RS-232 communications link has been optimized to allow the user, through very simple instructions, to control and request data from the meter. Refer to Specifications section for RS-232 Settings (Baud, etc.). Data transmitted/received is in standard ASCII format, and all numerical values are in BCD format.

CR - Carriage Return X - CANCEL The CANCEL command is simply a way to re-establish proper control, should a communications error occur or an incorrect command be transmitted. For the most part, an incorrect command will simply be ignored and the meter will return to listening for future commands. However, a prior command may be cancelled midstream by transmitting the CANCEL command anytime.
