• Programming
The DCR-1005 and DCR-1006 has a four-digit LCD readout and four red LED’s
labeled TRIPS 1, 2, 3, and 4. These LED’s indicate the status of the relays. Four
momentary push-buttons located under the cover, are used to program the DCR.
The cover makes reading the displays easy while sealing the electronics and
preventing the buttons from being accidentally bumped.
The different modes of the DCR can be easily accessed using the mode
buttons, M-UP and M-DN. They operate similar to a digital watch. To cycle
forward through the modes, hold down the M-UP key. To cycle backward
through the modes, hold down the M-DN key.
To select a mode, press the M-UP or M-DN key until the desired mode
number is displayed. Pressing either the V-UP or V-DN will display the selected
mode setting on the LCD display.
To change the selected mode setting hold down the V-UP or V-DN key until
the desired setting is displayed. Enter the new value by pressing either of the
mode keys. The display will then show the DST distance reading.
• Error Indicators
There are 4 error indicators which may appear on the display given the
appropriate conditions.
E1 indicates a short in the DST Power connection or termination.
E2 indicates that a sensor is not connected or the sensor is not
communicating.
E3 indicates a Loss of Echo condition. The sensor is not able to acquire a
target within the range of the sensor.
---- (dashes) indicate that the number to be displayed is larger than the display
will allow. To correct this condition, try adjusting the Decimal Position (Mode 2)
or changing the multiplier (Modes 29 and 30). This indication may also result
from a negative number to be displayed.
