Program and Scale 4-20 mA Input

These instructions show you how to program the ProVumeter to accept a 4-20 mAinput and display a value

associated with that range. When the meter is receiving a 4 mAinput, it will display the low end of the display

range; when receiving a 20 mAinput, it will display the high end of the display range. The input values (InP

1& InP 2) can be changed if needed, but the steps to do this have been omitted for this quick start guide.

For example: If the meter were used to display the level of a 100 ft tall tank, the transmitter should send

a 4 mA signal when the tank is empty and a 20 mA signal when the tank is full. The meter should be

programmed to interpret these inputs on a display range of 0-100, so that at 4 mA the meter will display

0.00 and at 20 mA the meter will display 100.00.

Program and Scale 0-10 V Input

These instructions show you how to program the ProVumeter to accept a 0-10 V input and display a value

associated with that range. When the meter is receiving a 0 V input, it will display the low end of the display

range; when receiving a 10 V input, it will display the high end of the display range. The input values (InP 1

& InP 2) can be changed if needed, but the steps to do this have been omitted for this quick start guide.

For example: If the meter were used to display the level of a 100 ft tall tank, the transmitter should

send a 0 V signal when the tank is empty and a 10 V signal when the tank is full. The meter should be

programmed to interpret these inputs on a display range of 0-100, so that at 0 V the meter will display

Program Pump Alternation Control

These instructions show you how to program the ProVumeter to alternate between relays

when the set point is reached. This relay action is most commonly used to alternate be-

tween primary and backup sump pumps so that they wear evenly over their life spans.

Note: With pump alternation active, when the rst set point is reached the meter will alternate between the

relays set up with the altern relay action. The other relays will be activated in turn if the subsequent

relay set points are reached. They will also be deactivated in turn as their reset points are reached.

Press to

enter Program-

ming Mode,

press to

access the SEtup (Setup) menu.

Press

until the relay

(Relay) menu is

displayed and

then press to access.

Press until

the appropriate

relay number is

Program Custom Unit Tags

These instructions show you how to program the ProVumeter to display custom unit tags

for the process value. The secondary (little) display shows this custom unit tag by default.

Note: The custom unit tag has no bearing on the meter’s operation or the process value. Displaying a

custom unit tag is simply for ease of reading.

letter is select-

ed and to

increment to the next letter. Press when

done to accept the new custom unit tag.

Program 4-20 mA Analog Output

These instructions show you how to program the ProVumeter to output an analog signal

based on its display value. This signal is commonly output to a PLC or chart recorder.

Note: The display values programmed for 4-20 analog output do not need to be the same as those

programmed as input scale values, though they most commonly will be.

Program Multi-Point Linearization

These instructions show you how to program the ProVumeter to linearize the display

for non-linear signals such as those from level transmitters used to measure volume in

odd-shaped tanks. Meters are set up with 2-point linearization by default (meaning that the

measurement scale is completely linear). This is a more advanced version of the Round

Horizontal Tank feature described on the previous page.
