5. Parameter Setup
5.1 Differences between Display Units
5.1.1 Multi-display Unit
Note: Pressing the Mode key displays the next parameter.
5.1.2 Single Display Unit
Note 1: Pressing the mode key with the parameter name shown changes the dis-
play to the parameter information indication. If there is no key opera-
tion for about one second when the parameter name is shown, the dis-
play automatically changes to the parameter information indication (how-
ever, this change does not automatically occur for parameters PH/S-HI/
FSC, etc., right after COND/COM/MET is indicated).
Note 2: Pressing the Mode key when the parameter information indication is
shown results in the next parameter being displayed.
Note 3: If there is no key operation for about 8 seconds with the parameter infor-
mation indication shown, the display returns to the parameter name indi-
cation.

5.4.2 Method of Setting Comparator Data
This section explains comparator data and shows a typical example of setting the
HI side judgment value. The same method applies to all other parameters.
Note: The setup conditions are HI side judgment value > LO side judgment
value, HI side judgment value LO side judgment value + LO side hys-
teresis, and LO side judgment value HI side judgment value-HI side
hysteresis. If these conditions are not satisfied, an error indication ap-
pears and the display returns to the HI side judgment value setup.
5.4.3
Method of Setting Scaling Data
This section explains comparator data and shows a typical example of setting
the full scale indication parameter. The same method applies to all other param-
eters.
Note: For the Digital limiter, values larger than the DLHI setpoint are not indi-
cated even if signals greater that the value set in the DLHI parameter are
input (for DLLO parameter, values smaller than the DLLO setpoint are
not indicated).

5.4.4 Method of Setting Calibration Data
5.4.4.1Actual Load Calibration
Actual load calibration means that calibration is carried out by applying actually
measured pressure to a sensor such as a load cell connected to the meter.
5.4.4.2 Equivalent Calibration
Equivalent calibration means that calibration is carried out according to the rat-
ings (specifications) ofsuch a sensor as a load cell. It is not necessary to connect
the sensor or to apply pressure to the sensor.

5.4.5 Method of Setting Linearization Data
Thelinearizationfunctionmeansafunctionthatchangestheslopeofstraightlinesinthe
relationshipbetweentheinputandindicationbycorrectingtherelationsatarbitrarypoints.
Linearizationdataaresetusingtheinputvalue(indicatedvaluebeforecorrection)andthe
output value(indicated valueafter correction) at each arbitrary point.
Note: The setup conditions are N-1 < N-2 … N-15 < N-16.
6. Control Functions
6.1 Hold Function
The Hold function temporarily retains the indication. The hold function is enabled by
shortcircuiting the HOLD and COM terminals or setting both terminalsto the same
voltagelevel. As a result thedisplay unit retains theindication givenat thatmoment.
6.2 Digital Zero Function
The DigitalZero function zerosthe indication given at an arbitrarytiming. There-
after, the function shows the amount of change from the point of zeroing. How-
ever, this function serves as an indication resetting function for a frequency mea-
suring unit. Thus, the Digital Zero function can be used to reset the indication
when there is no input signal at all.
Note that, the on/off control of theDigital Zero function can be achieved by means
of terminal control or front panel keys. In the case of terminal control, the Digital
Zero function is turned on byshortcircuiting theDZ and COM terminals or setting
both terminals to the same voltage level. The indication at that moment is zeroed.
In the case of control with the front panel keys, hold down the Mode key and press
the Increment keyfor about 1 second to zero the indication at that moment.
Note: Operation with the control terminals takes priority over operation
with the front panel keys. The Digital Zero function is disabled if the
control terminals are made to go through the off-on-off sequence with
the function enabled by means of the front panel keys.

6.3 Peak Hold Function
The Peak Hold function retains one of the maximum(peak hold)/minimum (valley
hold)/maximum - minimum (peak-valley hold) values and provides output for that
value. Selection from these values is made using the condition data. The peak
hold function is enabled by shortcircuiting the PH and COM terminals or setting
both terminals to the same voltage level.
7. Output Function
7.1 Comparison Output Function
The A5000 series of unit meters is designed so that the two judgment values HI
and LO can be set for the measured (indicated) value to provide the results of
judgment as relay contact output. (This function is effective when the meter is
equipped with a comparison output unit.) For details on the contact ratings and
other specifications, refer to the section “Output Specifications.”
7.2 Analog Output Function
The A5000 series of unit meters can output an analog signal for an indicated
value (when the meter is equipped with an analog output unit). There are four
output ranges, 0 to 1 V/0 to 10 V/1 to 5 V/4 to 20 mA, from which a selection
can be made using the condition data. In addition, the analog output of the
A5000 series allows for arbitrary output scaling. This scaling can be achieved
by setting the indication value for an output of the maximum scale value (20 mA
for 4–20 mAoutput range) in the AOHI parameter of the scaling data.
7.3 RS-485 Interface Function
The A5000 series can be equipped with an RS-485 interface (when the meter is
provided with an RS-485 unit). For details on the RS-485 function, see the
separate manual on communication functions.
7.4 RS-232C Interface Function
TheA5000 series can be equipped with an RS-232C interface (when the meter is
provided with an RS-232C unit). For details on the RS-232C function, see the
separate manual on communication functions.

5.3. BCC Checksum
As a means of error detection, a block check character (BCC) checksum is added to the RS-485 communication function of the A5000 panelmeter. See the
following illustrations for details on the transmission and reception formats (which are as illustrated in the table of communication commands in Section
6 for the RS-232C communication function).
