5. BUTTON FUNCTIONS
6. PROGRAMMING CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
connect the supplied AR950 Programmer to the configured device (AR5xx series transducer) via the provided
cable,
programmer can be connected both before the power supply is switched on and during the operation of the
device,
enter into the parameter configuration programming mode by pressing the CONF button (for
approximately 2 s) until the momentary message:  appears on the display, followed by the
mnemonic name of the first parameter (),
pressing the button will take you to the next parameter, while returning moves back to the previous parameter
(:...), the list of configurable parameters is described in the operating manual of the
configured device,
in order to change or preview the value of the current parameter press the SET button (parameter edit),
the UP or DOWN button changes the value of the current parameter,
pressing SET again saves the edited value and returns to displaying the parameter name (e.g.
), in the parameter editing mode, briefly pressing the ESC button cancels changes and
returns them to the parameter name display mode,
Button
Function
entering the parameter configuration mode (after holding pressed for more than 2
seconds, in the measured value display mode),
- editing current parameter in the configuration mode (displaying the parameter value),
- confirm the parameter value to be edited (marked as SET in the text),
- increase the parameter value in configuration mode (marked as t in the text),
- go to the next parameter,
- reduce the parameter value in the configuration mode (marked as s in the text),
- go to the previous parameter,
- cancelling changes in the edited value (return to parameter display name),
- exit from the parameter configuration mode (after holding pressed for more than 1 second)

Configuration parameter programming mode can be escaped by holding the ESC button pressed
for a longer time (approx. 1s) or automatically after approx. 2 minutes,
in normal mode, the measured value is displayed.
7. MESSAGES AND ERRORS
...upper segments of the display - exceeding the upper temperature sensor range or sensor damage,
... lower segments of the display - exceeding the lower temperature sensor range or sensor
damage
 ... Entering the parameter configuration mode.
