How do I wire a 4 wire RTD to a 3 wire input on a control?
You can connect a 4 wire RTD to a 3 wire instrument. Just use 3 of the wires. Generally
West 4100/6100/8100 Series

West 4100, 6100 and 8100 Series Controllers
- Why can't I change parameters such as Proportioning Band, Reset or Rate?
Is the AT (Auto Tuning) light on or flashing? You cannot manually change parameters such as Prglx25v Fri, 08/17/2018 - 17:29
- How do I setup my P Series control for On/Off control?
You need to set the Primary Output Proportioning Band Pb_P to 0.0. This parameter is in the Seglx25v Fri, 08/17/2018 - 17:29
- I have a West Plus series control on a plastic machine. The temperature is staying 20 degrees high. Should I try to adjust the PID parameters? Would Auto Tune help?
Tuning may not be the issue. First we need to check on a few other things. Is theglx25v Fri, 08/17/2018 - 17:29
- What is the default scale when a linear input type such as 4-20mA is selected?
The default configuration is for 0-100.0% on the display to equate to 4-20mA on the inputglx25v Fri, 08/17/2018 - 17:29
- How do I scale my 6100, 8100, 4100 plus series control to match my transmitter or other linear signal?
First you need to know: What is the output of the transmitter and what does it relate to? Youglx25v Fri, 08/17/2018 - 17:29
- How do I configure an analog output to retransmit the displayed temperature?
I want an analog output of 4-20mA to be related to -20 to 80C on the input. You must havglx25v Fri, 08/17/2018 - 17:29
- I have a N series control with a linear 4-20mA input. It no longer displays the values properly. How do I check the related parameters that scale the input?
You can check whether the control is set up for 4-20mA, 0-10V or some other input range in theglx25v Fri, 08/17/2018 - 17:29
- My P6100 series control does not have the same control response as my older N6100 control. How do I setup the P6100 to control the same as the older control?
The difference in control response is likely due to differences between the settings for tglx25v Fri, 08/17/2018 - 17:29
- My Plus controller/indicator has a invalid Unlock code, why is this?
This problem is almost certainly caused by electrical "noise", but it may enter the controller or inglx25v Fri, 08/17/2018 - 17:29
