Congratulations on your purchase of the
Precision Digital Industrial Gauge. This feature-
packed gauge offers a menu-driven display for
easy customization. User selectable features
include 12 units of measurement, password
protected calibration and disable functions,
adjustable bargraph and update rate.
A five digit display for maximum resolution is
standard. Optional 4-20mA output, relays and
24Vdc power add to the versatility of the gauge.
With the range printed on the keypad. These
digital gauges meet ASME B40.7 specification.

Turns the gauge on and off. When pressing the
ON/O key while in the off position, gauge start-
up display first indicates the software version
followed by the gauge pressure range. The
gauge will then display indicated pressure and be
ready for use.
Press this key for one second prior to gauge
usage to rezero any initial zero shift. If zero shift
is greater than programmed zero allowance, the
gauge will display O SET (blinking) for 1 sec-
ond, then return to the measure mode. To clear
minimum and maximum values, press
ZERO/CLR button (when min/max values are
indicated). Gauge will auto advance once zeroed.

1) Indicate maximum pressure.
2) Indicate minimum pressure.
3) Exit MAX/MIN mode and return the unit to
pressure measurement mode. To clear mini-
mum and maximum values press ZERO/CLR
key (must be in MAX/MIN mode).

This key allows for customization of the gauge.
Pressing the MENU key allows cycling through
the main MENU items; UNITS, CON IG, GRAPH,
O , UPDAT & DAMP. Any item changed in the
Menu become the new default setting(s).
Revised settings are saved in the event of power
loss.
The (up arrow key) or (down arrow key)
on the keypad allows for scrolling through the
MENU options to increase or decrease numeric
values as required. If in the menu mode, gauge
will automatically advance to measure mode
once selected MENU item has been set.
This key manually turns the backlite on or off.
five options are available. They include NEVER,
10 sec, 30, sec, 1 min, 5 min*. With the NEVER
option, the gauge BACKLITE will remain lit
whenever the gauge is in the ON mode or until
the BACKLITE button is pushed again. Options,
10 sec, 30 sec, 1 min, 5 min*. allow the BACK-
LITE to automatically turn-off after a selected
period of time.
To use the BACK ITE option:
Step 1: Press the MENU key.
Step 2: Press the (up arrow key) or (down
arrow key) until the word LITE appears.
Step 3: Press ENTER.

MENU OPTIONS
UNITS: 12 units of measurement are available: psi, mmHG,
inH2O with three temperature options: 20°C, 60° , 4°C*,
mBar, inHg, ftH2O, mPa, kPa, kg/cm2and bar.
Step 1: Press the MENU key until the word UNITS appears.
Step 2: Press Enter.
Step 3: Press the (up arrow key) or (down arrow
key) to select the required unit of measure.
Step 4: Press ENTER to finalize the UNIT selection.
ote: For inH20 range with three temperature options,
press the
(up arrow key) and
(down arrow key) to
select the desired temperature, then press E TER to final-
ize the U IT selection.
CONFIG: This option allows access to additional Menu
options. Options include:
• ENTPW or enter password (this appears as a sub-menu
in the CO FIG mode if a user password has been set).
• RECA (allows for zero, span and mid-scale calibra-
tion of the gauge).
• 0bUTN or zero key (allows for adjustment of % of
range that can be zeroed),
• dISAb, allows for disabling MENU options.
• SETPW: This feature allows for a user defined numer-
ic password. If a user password is not set, all features
in the CON IG mode will be accessible without a
password. If a user password is set, all items in the
CON IG menu options are accessible with or without
a user password. If a user password is programmed,
it will be required to access the CON IG menu options.
*Indicates default.
ENTER
This key allows for selecting gauge features in the
menu finalizing selection. Use of the enter key is
described throughout operating instructions.

MENU FUNCTIONS
How to Use Your Menu Functions
To set a user password (SETPW):
Step 1: Press the Menu key on the keypad
Step 2: Press the (up arrow key) or (down arrow
key) until the word CON IG appears.
Step 3: Press Enter. The word SETPW appears on the
gauge display
Step 4: Press Enter. A five digit numeric password is now
required.
Step 5: Press the (up arrow key) or (down arrow
key) on the keypad to select the first digit of the password.
Step 6: Press ENTER.
Step 7: Repeat until the five-digit password is shown on
the gauge display.
Step 8: Press ENTER.
ote: to erase password at any time while in the SETPW
(set password) mode, press the ZERO/CLEAR key. The
user will be prompted to reprogram the password once the
five-digit password is entered. The gauge will display SAVE.
Step 9: Press Enter to save the password setting.
ENTPW: Once a user password has been established and
entry into the CON IG mode is required, the user will be
prompted to ENTPW or enter password.
Follow setup steps 4-8 above.
RECA : or recalibrate allows for zero, mid-scale, full-scale
and factory default calibration of the gauge. The RECAL
feature also allows for recalibration of gauges with
4-20mA output.
*Indicates default.

To use RECA option:
Step 1: Press the Menu key on the keypad
Step 2: Press the (up arrow key) or (down arrow
key) on the keypad until the word CON IG appears.
Step 3: Press Enter.
Step 4: Enter user password if it has been programmed.
Step 5: Press (up arrow key) or (down arrow key)
until the word RECAL appears.
Step 6: Press Enter.
Step 7: The gauge will now flash between INPUT and unit
of measure on the lower line and .00 on the top line. Apply
zero pressure to the gauge.
Step 8: Press Enter. Zero pressure is now set.
Step 9: The gauge will display full-scale pressure. Apply
full-scale pressure to the gauge.
Step 10: Press Enter. ull-scale pressure is now set.
Step 11: The gauge will now display mid-scale pressure.
Apply mid-scale pressure to the gauge.
Step 12: Press Enter. Mid-scale pressure is now set.
(ote: For compound ranges this recalibration is zero,
full-scale, mid-scale and full-vac.)
FOR FACTORY CA IBRATED SETINGS:
Step 13: To reinstate factory calibrated settings for zero,
full-scale and mid-scale press the (down arrow key)
Menu key until the word ACT appears.
Step 14: Press Enter. actory calibration settings are now
reinstated.
Step 15: After zero, full-scale and/or mid-scale or factory
default calibration have been set, the word SAVE appears
