After zero adjustment the gauge automatically returns to
measurement mode. The <RUN> LED lits.
The zero can also be adjusted via the RS232C interface
(→ [2]).
The <RUN> LED flashes if
• the signal output is negative (< -20 mV) when the final pres-
sure has been attained
• the zero adjustment has failed.
4.2.2 <ZERO> Adjustment with Ramp Function
The ramp function allows to adjust the zero at a known reference
pressure within the measurement range of the gauge.
It also permits to adjust an offset of the characteristic curve in
order to
• compensate for the offset of the measuring system or
• obtain a slightly positive zero for a 0 … 10 V AD converter.
The offset should not exceed 2% of the F.S. (+200 mV). At a
higher positive offset, the upper limit of the measurement range
is exceeded.
Recommended procedure for adjusting the offset of a
measuring system: → Notice 20.
n Operate the gauge for at least ¼ hour (until the signal is
stable).
o Push the <ZERO> button with a pin (max. ø1.1 mm) and
keep it depressed. The <RUN> LED starts flashing. After
5 s, the zero adjustment value, starting at the current out-
put value, keeps continually changing (ramp) until the but-
ton is released or until the setting limit (max. 25% F.S.) is
reached. The corresponding output signal is delayed by
about 1 s.
