portable digital current meter capable of measuring the motor current. Scaling
will be accomplished by adjusting the scaling pot on the PAXLIT meter to agree
with the portable digital current meter. The operator turns on the AC motor and
lifts a large weight to load the motor. The installer then simply adjusts the
scaling adjustment, located at the rear of the unit, until the display is equal to
the value indicated on the portable current meter. The meter will now indicate
the load current of the motor precisely.

Input Calibration
Allow a 30 minute warm-up period before calibrating the meter.
1. Set the DIP switch off to disable the scaling pot.
2. Apply half scale input signal.
3. Adjust calibration potentiometer as necessary for the display to read 1000
4. Apply zero signal and ensure display reads zero.
5. Apply full scale signal and ensure display reads 1999.
Before starting, verfiy that the precision signal source is connected and ready.
Then perform the following procedure:
(ignore decimal point)
WARNING: Calibration of this meter requires a signal source
with an accuracy of 0.05% or better and an external meter with
an accuracy of 0.005% or better.
