Measure or Source with Custom Units Warning To avoid possible electric shock, when using Custom Units for measurement, always see the secondary value displayed below and to the right of the main display for the actual value of the measurement in native engineering units. The measurement or source display can be setup to show custom units. To do this, select a function, for example mV dc, scale it as necessary, then record an alphanumeric name for the custom units, for example, "PH." To set up a custom unit: 1. When you measure or source the necessary function, push the Scale softkey, and then select Custom Units from the list. 2. Record the 0% and 100% scale points for the input of the transfer function. 3. Push the Custom Units softkey. 4. Record the 0% and 100% scale points for the output of the transfer function. 5. Record the name of the custom units (up to four characters), for example PH (for pH), using the alphanumeric entry window, then push . Documenting Process Calibrator Measure Mode While Custom Units are active,  shows on the display to the right of the custom unit. Once the custom measurement unit has been programmed, the unit is available for calibration procedures in split-screen MEASURE/SOURCE mode. To cancel Custom Units, push the Custom Units softkey again. Using the 700-IV Current Shunt To source and measure current simultaneously, a current shunt is necessary and uses the volts measure function. The Fluke 700-IV Current Shunt is designed specifically for use with the 700 Series Documenting Process Products. To measure current with the current shunt: 1. Connect the current shunt to the MEASURE V jacks. 2. Connect the current signal to be measured to the current shunt. 3. Push  to select the dc voltage measure function. 4. Push the Scale softkey. 5. Select Current Shunt from the list. 6. Push . 7. The Product is automatically configured and uses the correct custom scaling factor for the current shunt. 43

Measure or Source with Custom Units

Warning
To avoid possible electric shock, when using
Custom Units for measurement, always see the
secondary value displayed below and to the
right of the main display for the actual value of
the measurement in native engineering units.
The measurement or source display can be setup to show
custom units. To do this, select a function, for example mV
dc, scale it as necessary, then record an alphanumeric
name for the custom units, for example, “PH.”
To set up a custom unit:
1.
When you measure or source the necessary function,
push the
Scale
softkey, and then select
Custom Units
from the list.
2.
Record the 0% and 100% scale points for the input of
the transfer function.
3.
Push the
Custom Units
softkey.
4.
Record the 0% and 100% scale points for the output of
the transfer function.
5.
Record the name of the custom units (up to four
characters), for example
PH
(for pH), using the
alphanumeric entry window, then push
.
While
Custom Units
are active,
shows on the display to
the right of the custom unit. Once the custom measurement
unit has been programmed, the unit is available for
calibration procedures in split-screen MEASURE/SOURCE
mode. To cancel
Custom Units
, push the
Custom Units
softkey again.
Using the 700-IV Current Shunt
To source and measure current simultaneously, a current
shunt is necessary and uses the volts measure function.
The Fluke 700-IV Current Shunt is designed specifically for
use with the 700 Series Documenting Process Products.
To measure current with the current shunt:
1.
Connect the current shunt to the MEASURE V jacks.
2.
Connect the current signal to be measured to the
current shunt.
3.
Push
to select the dc voltage measure function.
4.
Push the
Scale
softkey.
5.
Select
Current Shunt
from the list.
6.
Push
.
7.
The Product is automatically configured and uses the
correct custom scaling factor for the current shunt.
