8.11 Configuring events
See the Configuration and Use Manual Supplement for your transmitter for information and
instructions on configuring events.
8.11.1 Changing event setpoints from the display
For Event 1 or Event 2 from the single-setpoint event model only, the value of Setpoint A can be
changed from the display, under the following circumstances:
• Mass total or volume total (gas or liquid) must be assigned to the event.
• Mass total or volume total must be configured as a display variable (see Section 8.14.6).
Then, to reset Setpoint A from the display:
