The OMEGAâ„¢ MDS8PT is a 1/8 DIN size (96 x 48 mm) digital panel meter in a benchtop plastic enclosure featuring the Pt Series color-changing display.

The Pt Series meters feature 4 or 6 digit LED displays that can be programmed to change color between GREEN , AMBER, and RED at any set-point or alarm point. Other options include isolated programmable analog output, serial communications, Modbus® and Ethernet. The universal temperature and process instrument handles 10 common types of thermocouples, thermistors, multiple RTD’s, and several process (DC) voltage and current ranges.

Is there a flow chart for INIT? The manual does not have anything for adjust/calibration.

Asked by: Leemanoid
Thank you for the inquiry. Please reference the full manual of the DP8PT meter. Temperature calibration is in the last segment of the INIT menu. https://assets.omega.com/manuals/M5460.pdf Best regards OMEGA

Can the unit control a 12v fan and 200v/200w cartridge heater

Asked by: bruceC
If you need to Control devices you should get the CS8DPT which can control up to 240 VAC
