GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Legend Plus Batch Counter (LGPB) is a

multi-input, counting panel instrument that
features process, batch, and total counting, as well
as a time interval rate indicator. All four available
presets can be assigned to the process counter or
the rate indicator. Outputs three and four can also
be assigned to the batch or total indicator.

The Legend Plus has advanced features that

allow the unit to be more closely coupled to the
application. The unit features a 2 line by 8
character alphanumeric display, allowing the
value mnemonics and programming menus to be
easily read. The unit is available in single or dual
color display models. The four scroll-through
indication displays can be programmed to show
various parameters and to automatically scroll.
On dual color models, each indication display can
be programmed for either color. The mnemonics
corresponding to the main display values (RATE,
P R O C E S S , B A T C H , T O T A L ) , c a n b e
individually programmed and modified as
desired. For example, the RATE mnemonic can
be reprogrammed to display the word SPEED, so
that when the rate mnemonic is to be displayed,
the mnemonic SPEED is displayed instead.

Two custom display lines allow the user to

specify the number of digits of a value to be
d i s p l a y e d o n a l i n e , a l o n g w i t h a n y
alphanumeric prefix or suffix. This capability
allows displays such as; ‘1000 RPM’, ‘99999
Ft’, or ‘PRC 9999’, etc.

The Legend Plus also features messaging

capabilities that can inform the user of output
actions or other events that occur in a system.
