Safety
Before you use the instrument, make sure that you read and
understand all the related data. This includes: all local safety
procedures, the instructions for the UMM (if applicable), and
this publication.
WARNING
• It is dangerous to ignore the specified limits for the
instrument or to use the instrument when it is not in
its normal condition. Use the applicable protection
and obey all safety precautions.
• Do not use the instrument in locations with explosive
gas, vapor or dust. There is a risk of an explosion.
• To prevent electrical shocks or damage to the
instrument, do not connect more than 30V between
the terminals, or between the terminals and the
ground (earth).
• UPM only. To prevent a dangerous release of
pressure, isolate and bleed the system before you
disconnect a pressure connection.
Before you start an operation or procedure in this publication,
make sure that you have the necessary skills (if necessary,
with qualifications from an approved training establishment).
Follow good engineering practice at all times.

To prevent instrument errors, make sure that the electrical
connections (A1-item 10 and/or A2) are correct.
Communications port connections
Use the communications port (A1 - item 9) to attach an IDOS
Universal Measurement Module (UMM).
When you attach the cable from a UMM (Figure 13/14), the
instrument automatically changes the menus to give you all
the applicable options (Table 2/3).
Change the output values
When the output operation is set up (Table 5), use one of
these procedures to change the output values:

Figure 13: Example configuration - Pressure measurement
with a UPM
When the connections are complete, make the necessary
IDOS selections (Table 2/3).
Each time you use a different UPM, the DPI 880 records its
measurement units (capacity: the last 10 different UPM).
When you re-attach one of the last 10 UPM, the DPI 880
automatically uses the applicable units (psi, mbar ... ).
