Mode 1: Rate Measurement
The DT-5TG can easily measure any rotational, linear or
flow rate speed. Each parameter function dictates the
necessary steps when preparing a system application.
Parameters 2 and 3 can be measured with a hand-held
digital tachometer (no need for arithmetic calculations).

Parameter 1:
Pulses Per Revolution from Sensor
Here's how to change the parameter from 1 to 60 pulses
per revolution ("p/r"):
1. Set unit to mode 1.
2. Press mode key.
3. Press shift key to select the
desired digit.
4. Press increment key 6 times.
5. Press shift key.
6. Press increment key 9 times.
Parameter 1 is now set for 60 p/r.
Parameter 2: Sensing RPM
To change the parameter from 50,000 to 1,000 rpm.
1. Press mode key
2. Press shift key
3. Press increment key five times.
4. Press shift key
5. Press increment key.
1. Apply any voltage between
9–35 VDC to terminals 1 and
2. When power is applied, the
display will show all zeroes. After
half a second, the display will
change to
0

2. Press mode and data set keys for
at least 5 seconds. A zero will
flash until

3.Press the increment key to select
the mode you want. Mode
sequence will depend on input
module
4. Press mode key. You're now
ready to program the parameters
for the mode you have selected.
