number, range and calibration data for each module will be briefly

displayed before booting up in Measurement Mode.

The HHC is now ready for basic pressure or temperature

measurement.
Pressure readings from installed modules will be displayed in the

engineering unit in which the module was originally calibrated.
Connect the pressure port(s) of the Quick-Select pressure mod-

ule(s) to be used to the pressure source to be measured. If a

gauge pressure measurement is to be made using a low differen-

tial pressure Quick-Select pressure module, be sure to connect

the pressure to be measured to the high pressure port on the

Quick-Select pressure module.

Note: When making connections to pressure ports on Quick-

Select modules always use proper tools such as the proper size

wrench, slip joint pliers or locking jaw pliers to hold the stainless

steel manifold and use a second tool such as a properly sized

wrench to tighten the connection. NEVER tighten the fitting by

holding it only in the base unit

For temperature measurement, connect the RTD probe to be

used to the Switchcraft connector on the interface module then

proceed to Section 15j or 15k for instructions on setting up the

calibrator for temperature measurement.
