Introduction
These loop-powered 1/8 DIN digital panel meters can
be installed virtually anywhere to provide convenient
and informative display of any 4-20 mA signal. One of
the most convenient features of these instruments is
their dual line display. The top line is used to display
level in feet and inches while the 8-digit alphanumeric
bottom line may be used to display a tag custom mes-
sage. Another common setup is to display the input in
feet and inches on the top line and in another scale
on the bottom line (such as the volume in gallons).
Further enhancing the display on these instruments is
a 20-segment bargraph that also includes a numeric
value of the percentage the bargraph represents.
These loop-powered meters can be installed virtually
anywhere because they get their power from the
4-20 mA loop and therefore require no separate
power source. And they only drop 1.5 V (4.5 V with
backlight), so they add very little burden to the loop.
Additional features that allow these instruments to be
installed virtually anywhere include a NEMA 4X, IP65
front panel, an operating temperature range of
-40 to 167°F (-40 to 75°C) (for safe area products),
conformally coated PCBs, and a backlit LCD that can
be read in bright sunlight or dimly lit areas. Finally,
there are intrinsically safe and nonincendive versions
of these instruments that can be installed in hazard-
ous areas.
Free, PC-based, MeterView XL software that con-
nects to the meter via a micro USB cable is available
for programming and setup of the meters. For more
details, see the LIM6603MVXL manual.
All models come equipped with two open collector
outputs and a digital input. There are also models
available with two solid state relays and isolated
4-20 mA analog output options. The open collector
outputs are useful for alarm indication. The digital in-
put can be used to acknowledge the relays, to
start/stop a timer/stopwatch, and more. The relays
can be programmed for alarm indication, on/off con-
trol, or pump alternation.

Setup and Programming
The meter is factory calibrated prior to shipment to display
0 to 100, which corresponds to the 4-20 mA input. The
calibration equipment is traceable to NIST standards.
Overview
There are no jumpers to set; setup and programming
is done through the front panel buttons or PC-based
software.
The meter may be powered via the micro-USB
connection located on the right side of the meter for
the purposes of programming only. The backlight will
not work while the meter is powered via the USB
connection.
MeterView XL Programming
Software
The meter can also be programmed using PC-based
MeterView XL software. This software greatly simpli-
fies the programming process and allows the user to
save configuration files for later use.
The meter connects to the PC via a provided micro-
USB cable and is powered by the USB connection so
no additional power is needed during programming.
To download the MeterView XL programming
software, visit predig.com/meterviewxl.
For detailed programming software instructions, see
the LIM6603MVXL manual.
•Care should be exercised to avoid ground loops
when connecting the USB to an active loop (e.g.
power supply, transmitter, loop-powered meter,
etc.). It is recommended to connect the (mA+)
terminal of the meter to the (-) terminal of a two-
wire transmitter and the (mA-) to the (+) of the
next device in the loop or to the (-) terminal of the
power supply.

Setting Custom Units (CUSTOM)
When the desired unit class or unit of measure within
a class for PV 2 is not available, a custom unit may be
programmed. Select the CUSTOM menu (or the CUS-
TOM unit within a unit class) to enter a custom unit
name.
Text values are set using the Right and Up-Arrow
buttons. Press Right-Arrow to select next character
and Up-Arrow to increment character value. The se-
lected character will flash. Press and hold the Up or
Right-Arrow buttons to auto-increment or decrement
the character. Press Enter to accept the character.
Notes:
•Press and hold the Right-Arrow while no
character is being edited to erase all charac-
ters to the right of the flashing character
•Press and hold Up or Right-Arrow to auto-in-
crement or decrement a selected character.
•All text values, including tags and alarm mes-
sages, are set in a similar fashion.
Scaling Example
The 4-20 mA input can be scaled to the appropriate
values for a given application. The 4 mA input
(input 1) should have a corresponding display value
(display 1) which represents the low end of the
process value range being measured by the
transmitter. Likewise, the 20 mA input (input 2) should
have a display value (display 2) which represents the
high end of the process value range.
For example: If the meter is used to display the level
of a 100 ft tall tank, the transmitter should send a
4 mA signal when the tank is empty and a 20 mA
signal when the tank is full. The meter should be
programmed to interpret these inputs on a display
range of 0-100, so that at 4 mA the meter will display
0 and at 20 mA the meter will display 100.
Processes which require a non-linear scale can be
accommodated using multi-point linearization
(LINEAR) and round horizontal tank (RH TANK)
functions available in the Advanced menu. See Input
Signal Conditioning Functions (FUNCTION), page 30.
A signal source is not needed to scale the meter;
simply program the inputs and corresponding display
values.
