Description
1
Function Keys
These keys are used in various ways, primarily to config-
ure the calibrator
2
ON/OFF Key
This key is used to turn the calibrator on and off
3
ZERO Key
This key is used to zero pressure measurements
4
Backlight Key
This key is used to turn the backlight on and off
Note: When the calibrator is turned on by pressing the ON/OFF key, it will go through a
short startup self-check routine. During that routine, the display shows the current
firmware revision level, auto shutdown status and the ranges of the 2 internal pressure
sensors. The calibrator requires a maximum of 5 minutes warm-up to rated accuracy.
Large changes in ambient temperature may require a longer warm-up period. See
section 2.3 for instructions on zeroing the pressure sensor displays. Pressure ranges
should be zeroed each time the calibrator is started.
