Connecting several pressure transducers
From software version 2.03 (DCP 3000) at most one MPT 100 or MPT 200 vacuum gauge head can be
connected to the DCP 3000 vacuum gauge.
From software version 2.22 (DCP 3000) up to four MPT 100 / MPT 200 vacuum gauge heads can be
connected to the DCP 3000 vacuum gauge.
However, it is possible to additionally connect several external pressure transducers VSK 3000 or
VSP 3000 simultaneously to the DCP 3000.
Only the readings of one pressure transducer are displayed at a time.
☞
The VACUU•BUS address of the active and displayed pressure transducer is shown in the upper left
corner (status line). The readings of all pressure transducers are shown in the ”Sensors” menu (see
instructions for use of DCP 3000).
☞
Each pressure transducer requires an individual address (VSK 1 to VSK 4 / MPT 1 to MPT 4 (replac-
ing gauge heads VSP 3000 if connected) / VSP 1 to VSP 4) to communicate with the DCP 3000.
☞
Factory set each pressure transducer is set to address “1”.
To use several pressure transducers it is necessary to configure the transducer appropriately.
Configuration of a gauge head MPT 100 / MPT 200
➨
Remove the rubber plug from the address switch at the gauge head.
➨
Use a small screw driver to adjust the address switch to „1“, „2“, „3“ or „4“.
☞
The other addresses are not configured for use with the vacuum gauge DCP 3000.
➨
Insert rubber plug.
