6.6 Description of the menu items
Pressure units
The calibration system is factory set (see delivery note).
For the list of the available units see chapter 3 "Specifications".
For configuration details of the user-defined units see chapter 6.7 "Configuration of the
function locking".
Automatic disconnection
The automatic disconnection can be adjusted in minute steps in the range from
1 ... 30 minutes. For continuous operation of the instrument, deactivate this menu item
with "OFF".
Battery voltage display
The current battery status is displayed as a voltage value and progress bar indication.
Temperature display
This menu item displays the temperature measured by the internal sensor. The value
can be displayed in °F or °C.
Damping
With enabled damping the measured values are smoothed by the pulsating pressure
sources.
Sampling rate
Specifies the interval in which the pressure is measured and the display updated.
0.5 measurements per second correspond to 30 measurements per minute.
TARE (tare function)
In this menu item, a constant offset value can be set, which will be subtracted from the
measured pressure.
The TARE value depends on the selected values and can be set on the maximum scale
range.
The progress bar indication always indicates the actual pressure depending on the
entire measuring range, irrespective of the Tare setting. This is done for safety to
indicate that even if "0" is displayed that pressure is being applied to the calibration
system.
Example:
If, for example, TARE is set to 30 bar and the measured pressure is 37 bar, the measured
value displayed will be 7 bar. The pressure of 27 bar would then be displayed as -3 bar.
