Setting 0 % and 100 % Output
Parameters
For current output, the Calibrator assumes that 0 %
corresponds to 4 mA and 100 % corresponds to 20 mA.
For other output parameters, 0 % and 100 % points must
be set before using the step and ramp functions. Proceed
as follows:
M
1.
If necessary, press
2.
Select the desired source function and use the arrow
keys to enter the value. This example is temperature
source using 100 C and 300 C values for source.
3.
Enter 100 C then press and hold
value.
4.
Enter 300 C then press and hold
value.
This setting can now be used for the following:
Manually stepping an output in 25 %
increments.
Switch between the 0 and 100 % span points by
momentarily pushing
for SOURCE mode.

Setting 0 % and 100 % Output Parameters
% Error Functionality
Percentage Error is available for every range on the
lower display. The calculation is based on a mA
percentage deviation from the value measured on the
upper display to the value sourced on the lower display
0 % mA and 100 % mA are fixed to 4 and 20 mA. 0 %
and 100 % for the lower display are set in source using
J and G, refer to "Setting 0% and 100% Output
Parameters".
Stepping and Ramping the Output
Two additional features are available for adjusting the
value of source functions:
Stepping the output manually with the
keys, or in automatic mode
Ramping the output
Stepping and ramping apply to all functions except
pressure, which requires use of an external pressure
source.
