VARIOUS OPERATING MODES
PanelPilot Compatible Smart Graphics Display
PANELPILOT SOFTWARE
Lascar’s PanelPilot software is available for download free of charge from www.PanelPilot.com. Easy to install and use, the control software
runs under Windows 2000, XP, Vista and 7. The software is used to setup the appearance and operation of the meter and then upload these
settings to the meter.
Multiple types of voltmeter are supplied with the software. Additional voltmeters and functions will be made available using an annual sub-
scription based service through www.PanelPilot.com. See the website for details of available meters.
The software allows the following parameters to be configured:
• Meter type
• Text labels (including units and graph labels)
• Background, graph segment and text colors
• Input scaling / calibration (at two points)
• Decimal points (entered during scaling)
• Splashscreen image selection (to display a user image, such as a logo, when the meter is powered up)
MEASURING A VOLTAGE SOURCE MEASURING 0-2 AMPS CURRENT
Use a 1 Ω resistor, with a 4W rating.
Setup scaling in software: 0V = 0.00 and 2V = 2.00
MEASURING 0-100V (d.c. only)
Input a known voltage of between 0 and 100V (V1)
Measure the voltage between IN1 and 0V (V2)
Setup scaling in software: 0V = 0.0
V2 = V1 (Enter with the same number of decimal points, i.e 50.0)
