User Manual
PROGRAMMING
The Legend Series provides an easy to use, menu driven programming
interface. The English prompts, the front panel keypad, and the flashing display
aids the operator during programming. In the normal run mode, the main
display loop allows the user to scroll through the four programmable indication
displays, using the direction keys. From the main loop, presets and scale factors
can be accessed directly for changing parameters. All other parameters are
accessed through the programming loop. In the programming loop, parameters
can be viewed or changed and the operator can exit anywhere in the loop.
Shown to the side is part of the main display loop and part of the programming
loop of a Dual Preset Legend (LGD) unit. Also shown are four different views
of the indication displays.
PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS

Ranges from -99999 to 999999
Counter Load ranges from -99999 to 999999
SCALE FACTORS (RATE & COUNT)
Range from 0.0001 to 5.9999
COUNT SCALE MULTIPLIER
Multiplies the contents of the 9-digit internal counter or the 11-digit internal
totalizer by a factor of 1, 0.1, 0.01 or 0.001 to view the desired number of

RATE SCALE MULTIPLIERS
Multiplies the contents of the actual internal rate, pulses per second (PPS), by
a factor of 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100, or 1000 to view the desired number of
significant digits on the 6-digit Rate display. The desired time units that the rate
is to be displayed, can also be programmed as per Second (x1), per Minute
(x60), or per Hour (x3600).
UPDATE TIME
The Rate Minimum/Maximum Update Times range from 0.1 to 99.9 seconds
which provides averaging capability for non-consistent pulse spacing.
