pro Control Active States
The active region for Pro Control outputs are user configurable. For example,
consider a pressure gauge with a low warning set point at 20 PSI. The gauge
can be configured so the associated Pro Control output is active when the
pointer falls below the set point [less than 20 PSI] (active low) OR when the
pointer is beyond the set point [greater than 20 PSI] (active high). Likewise,
consider a pressure gauge with high warning set point at 95 PSI. Again, the
gauge can be configured so the associated Pro Control is active when the
pointer falls below the set point [less than 95 PSI] (active low) OR when the
pointer progresses beyond the set point [greater than 95 PSI] (active high).
To change the active state:
With power off, press and hold the
B button. Apply power to the gauge.
Release the B button. Press and release the A button. The gauge is now in
Active State Set Mode. The pointer will point straight up at the value in the
top center of the dial. Press and release the A button to toggle back and
forth between the low and high warning point active state modes. Doing so
will cause the dial to change back and forth between green and red. When
setting the low warning active state the dial face will be green. When setting
the high warning active state the dial face will be red.
Once the designated warning mode is selected (green or red) press and hold
the
A button to toggle between active high and active low. As you hold the
button the pointer will continuously sweep from the left of center and to the
right of center pausing at each side. Left of center is active low and right of
center is active high. Release the
A button when the pointer is in the position
of the desired active state. Once you have selected the desired state, don’t
press any buttons for about three seconds. The dial will flicker white several
times to indicate the desired setting has been saved and the gauge will return
to normal operation with your new state selection. State selections are saved
when power is off.
NOTE: The Pro Control Active State does not affect the color of each dial region.

Lighting Mode
(Region B Color)
This gauge allows the dial lighting to operate in two modes, Full On or
Dimmable. Factory default is Full On.
full On: In this mode, the white lighting wire is ignored. The gauge dial
lighting is always on at full brightness. (unless you select NO color
when setting the Backlight Color). If using Full On mode, white
wire hook-up is not needed.
Dimmable: In this mode, the white wire is used to set the intensity of the
dial lighting from full brightness down to off.

With power off, press and hold the
B button. Apply power to the gauge.
Release the B button and the dial face will illuminate with either white lighting
or blue lighting. Press and release the B button to toggle between Full On
(dial is illuminated white) and Dimmable (dial is illuminated blue). Once you
have selected the desired mode, don’t press any buttons for about three
seconds. The dial will flicker white several times to indicate the desired setting
has been saved and the gauge will return to normal operation with your new
mode selection. Mode selections are saved when power is off
