3.2.8. Configuring the Contact Filter Settings

Although the CT-8000 S3 automatically detects the contact time using its own algorithm, it also
allows the user to enter a custom filter value. The value can be between 1 and 300. A filter
setting of 1 allows the CT-8000 S3 to pick up the first contact transition time after the resistor
contact activity is detected. A filter setting of 300 allows the CT-8000 S3 to pick up the last
contact transition time after the resistor contact activity is detected. Use the steps below to set
the contact filter value:

a. Start from the “START-UP” menu:

Press the

[5]

key (DIAGNOSTICS).

b. The following screen will be displayed:

Press the

[6]

key (CONTACT FILTER).

c. The following screen will be displayed:

Type the new filter value using the numeric keypad and then press the

[ENTER]

key.

The contact filter value will be set and you will be returned to the “START-UP” menu.

NOTE

The filter value will be reset to the automatic setting when the unit’s power is
cycled.
