GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Apollo Intelligent Meter for Process Inputs (IMP) accepts standard

process signals and precisely scales them into engineering units with high

resolution. One model covers any current range within 0 to 50 mADC. A full

6-digit display accommodates nearly any engineering units and holds large

totalization values. State-of-the-art digital circuitry virtually eliminates errors

due to drift. A full complement of option packages is available to fulfill many

process applications.

The indicator features a choice of two different scaling procedures which

greatly simplify initial set-up. English-style display prompts and front panel

buttons aid the operator through set-up and operation. A front panel lock-out

menu protects set-up data and operation modes from unauthorized personnel.

Programmable digital filtering enhances the stability of the reading.

Programmable remote input “E1-CON” pin can be utilized to control a variety of

functions, such as totalizing, alarm control, display hold or tare operations. All

set-up data is stored in E

PROM, which will hold data for a minimum of 10 years

without power.

An optional integrator (totalizer)/linearizer can be used to totalize or integrate

signals up to a maximum display value of 999,999. It features independent

scaling and a low signal cut-out to suit a variety of signal integration applications.

Additionally, nine segments and offsets can easily be programmed with this

option to linearize transducers with non-linear outputs, such as square law

devices. Programmable remote input “E2-CON” pin is included with the option

and can be utilized to control a variety of functions, such as totalizing, alarm

control, display hold or tare operations, simultaneously with “E1-CON” pin.

Peak/valley (max/min) reading memory, and a signal re-zeroing (tare) function

are included with this option and they are easily recalled and controlled by either

the front panel or a remote input. All readings are retained at power-down.

Optional dual relays with parallel solid state outputs are fully programmable

to operate in a wide variety of modes to suit many control or alarm applications.

Optional 20 mA loop, bi-directional serial communications provides

computer and printer interfacing to extend the capabilities of the indicator. More

than one unit can be connected in the loop with other RLC products which have

serial communications capabilities.

An optional 4 to 20 mA or 0 to 10 VDC re-transmitted analog output can be

scaled by the user to interface with a host of recorders, indicators and controllers.

The type of analog output is determined by the model ordered. (See Ordering

Information for available models.) The indicator has several built-in diagnostic

functions to alert operators of most malfunctions. Extensive testing of noise

interference mechanisms and full burn-in make the indicator extremely reliable

in industrial environments. The die-cast front bezel meets NEMA 4/IP65

requirements for washdown applications, when properly installed. Plug-in style

terminal blocks simplify installation and wiring change-outs.

THEORY OF OPERATION

The IMP employs a microprocessor to perform the A/D conversion on the

input signal via a voltage-to-frequency converter. It digitally scales the result,

corrects for meter drift which may be present and then displays the result in a

6-digit display (5 for input, 6 for totalizer). The inputs are filtered to enhance the

stability of the display. A non-volatile E

PROM memory device provides

permanent data retention for operating variables. The display consists of drivers

and 6-digit solid-state LEDs. The alarm option employs opto-isolators to isolate

the open collector devices from meter common. Operating in parallel, the relays

are type Form-C and are rated at 5-amps. The serial communication option

features a built-in 20 mA current source and complete opto-isolation. The analog

option features a 12-bit DAC and provides an output signal that is digitally

scaled. The re-transmitted output is isolated from meter common.

Note: Analog, Serial, and SNK output options are isolated from the signal common at a working voltage of 50 V. The commons should NOT be tied together.

PROGRAMMING & OPERATING THE IMP

PROGRAMMING THE IMP

Prior to installing and operating the indicator, it may be necessary to

change the scaling to suit the display units particular to the application.

Although the unit has been pre-programmed at the factory, the set-ups will

generally have to be changed.

The indicator is unique in that two different scaling methods are available.

The operator may choose the method that yields the easier and more accurate

calibration. The two scaling procedures are similar in that the operator

keys-in two display values and either keys-in or applies a signal value that

corresponds to those display points (see FIG. 2). The location of the scaling

points should be near the process end limits, for the best possible accuracy.

Once these values are programmed (coordinates on a graph), the indicator

calculates the slope and intercept of the signal/display graph automatically.

No span/zero interaction occurs, making scaling a one-pass exercise. Basic

scaling is complete after decimal point selection, unit rounding (dummy

zeros) and digital filtering level selection. The following procedure should be

followed to scale the indicator.

Before actually trying to program the indicator, it is advised to organize all

the data for the programming steps to avoid any possible confusion and to read

the programming procedure entirely before proceeding.

To set-up the indicator, connect AC power and signal wires as outlined in the

connections section (Appendix “A”). Remove the jumper wire (if installed) from

TBA #3 (PGM. DIS.). This will allow the operator to enter and modify all of the

indicator’s parameters. Press the front panel button labeled “P”, momentarily.

Briefly, the display will show “Pro” alternately flashing with “0”. This is the

indicator’s programming mode. The programming mode is divided into sections,

numbered 0-9, each of which can be individually accessed. The front panel “UP”

and “DOWN” arrow buttons can be used to select one of these numbers and the

“P” button used to enter the selected programming module. In all of the

programming modules, “UP” and “DOWN” are used to either select from a list

of choices or enter a value. The “P” button is used to save the new value and

progress to the next step within a module (Note: the new value takes effect when

“P” is pressed). Upon completion of a module, the indicator returns to the “Pro”

<>“0” stage. Pressing the “P” button at this point causes the unit to display

“End” after which the unit returns to the normal display mode. The following

table explains the basic function of each step.

Note: < > This indicates that the display will alternate between the English

prompt and the actual data.

-4-

FIG. 2: SLOPE DIAGRAM

DISPLAY RESULT OF “P” BUTTON

“Pro”<>“0” Causes the indicator to return to normal display mode. Any

changes to set-up data are permanently stored in the

PROM.

“Pro” <>“1”

Entry into this module allows the user to select the decimal

point position, unit rounding and scaling by the method of

applying the actual signal levels to the indicator that

correspond to the programmed display values. Use this

method when the transducer is connected to the process and

the process can be brought to known levels (ie. weight,

flow, pressure, etc.). Alternately, a precision signal source

may be substituted to simulate the transducer. A second

method is available in Pro 2.

“Pro” <>“2”

Entry into this module allows the user to select the decimal

point position and unit rounding, as in Pro 1, but the method

of scaling differs in that the user keys in signal levels instead

of applying signals to the indicator. Use this method when

the signal transducer is pre-calibrated with known display

values at known signal levels. An alternate method is

available in Pro 1.

“Pro” <>“3”

Module #3 allows the user to program what can be accessed

from the front panel when the PGM. DIS. (Program Disable,

TBA #3) pin is connected to common. This feature protects

critical set-up data from accidental modification while

allowing access to setpoints and other functions. The front

panel lock-out menu (quick programming) includes setpoint

modification, totalizer resetting, and peak/valley resetting.

Note: The term “Quick Programming” is used to refer to

the ability to change the information that can be

accessed from the front panel when the “PGM. DIS.”

terminal is connected to “COMM.”.

DISPLAY

RESULT OF “P” BUTTON

“Pro”<>“4” Module #4 programs the digital filtering level and the

function of the remote input ”E1-CON" pin (TBA #4), and,

if the totalizer option is installed, the remote input

“E2-CON” pin (TBA #8). The functions of the remote E1

and E2 pins are the same and include display hold, peak/

valley modes, totalizer reset, alarm reset, signal re-zero

(tare), reading synchronization or print request.

“Pro” <>“5”

This module sets the time base, scale factor and low signal

disable function for the optional totalizer/ integrator.

“Pro” <>“6”

This module allows programming for the basic

configuration of the alarm option. The programming

includes HI/LO acting, tracking, alarm display, latched or

auto-reset, assignment to either signal or

integrator/totalizer, and alarm and hysteresis values.

“Pro” <>“7”

Module #7 is the serial communication parameter

programming. Baud rate, unit address, print request

function and condensed prints are all programmable.

“Pro”<>“8”

This module allows digital scaling of the retransmitted

analog output. Display values that correspond to 4 mA or 0

VDC and 20 mA or 10 VDC are keyed-in to scale the output

and it may be assigned to either the signal or the

totalizer/integrator.

“Pro”<>“9”

This module is the service operations sequence and is not

normally accessed by the user. This step re-calibrates the

basic input and is used to compensate for long-term drift.

Execution of this module should be done by technicians

with the proper equipment in accordance with a

maintenance plan of yearly recalibrations. A code number

entry step is used to protect from inadvertent entries. Also,

there is a number of other access codes which provide test

and set-up changes as an aid in troubleshooting.

-5-

MODULE #1 - SCALE BY SIGNAL LEVEL METHOD

PROGRAM DECIMAL POINT POSITION

Select the desired decimal point position of the scaled display by pressing

either the “Up” or “Down” button.

Note: Whatever decimal point is selected will appear in succeeding

programming steps. Also, the “P” button must be pressed after each step to enter

the desired data and to proceed to the next step.

“ dECPNt”<>“0”

“0.0”

“0.00”

“0.000”

“0.0000”

PROGRAM ROUNDING INCREMENT AND RIGHT HAND

DUMMY ZEROS

Rounding values other than one cause the scaled number to ‘round’ to the

nearest rounding increment selected (ie. rounding of ‘5’ causes ‘122’ to round to

‘120’ and ‘123’ to round to ‘125’). If the process is inherently jittery, the display

value may be rounded to a higher value than one. If the range of the process

exceeds the required resolution, (ex. 0-10,000 PSI, but only 10 PSI resolution

required), a rounding increment of 10 will effectively make the display more

stable. This programming step is usually used in conjunction with programmable

digital filtering (Pro 4) to help stabilize display readings. (If display stability

appears to be a problem and the sacrifice in display resolution is unacceptable,

program higher levels of digital filtering or increase the level of process

dampening.) Rounding increments of 10, 20, 50, and 100 may also be used to add

“dummy zeros” to the scaled readings, as desired.

“round”< > “1”

“2”

“5”

“10”

“20”

“50”

“100”

At this stage a choice of either return to “Pro 0” or continue with scaling of the

display is offered.

“SCALE” < > “yES”

“NO”

If “yES” was selected for the previous step, the scaling procedure is started. In

order to scale the indicator, by either method, two signal level values and two

display values that correspond to the signal values must be known. These four

values are then used to complete the scaling operation. An example of a

signal-display pair is listed below:

3.000 PSI @ 4.000 mA AND 15.000 PSI @ 20.000 mA

Scaling point #1 Scaling point #2

Note that reverse acting indication can be accomplished by either reversing

the two signal points or the display value points, but not both. If both are reversed,

then forward (normal) acting indication will occur. In either case do not reverse

the input wires to correct the action because the indicator is designed for positive

signals only. With this scaling procedure, the display values are keyed in and

signal values are applied to the indicator by either a signal simulator or the actual

signal source.

KEY-IN DISPLAY VALUE FOR SCALING POINT #1

“ dSP 1” < > “-99999” to “99999” (ex. 3.000 PSI)

APPLY SIGNAL TO INDICATOR FOR SCALING POINT #1

The meter will indicate the actual amount of signal being applied to the input .

However, the indicator still retains the previously applied value until “P” is

pressed, at which time the new value is stored. Pressing either the “UP” or

“DOWN” button causes the previous value to remain programmed in the unit.

“INP 1” < > “0-50” (ex. 4.000)

KEY-IN DISPLAY VALUE FOR SCALING POINT #2

“dSP 2” < > “-99999” to “99999” (ex. 15.000 PSI)

-6-

APPLY SIGNAL TO INDICATOR FOR SCALING POINT #2

The meter will indicate the actual amount of signal being applied to the input.

However, the indicator still retains the previous value until “P” is pressed, at

which time the new value is stored. Pressing either the “UP” or “DOWN” button

causes the previous value to remain programmed in the unit.

“INP 2” < > “0-50” (ex. 20.000)

At this stage, scaling is complete. The indicator will automatically calculate

the slope and offset of the display units after completing “Pro 1”.Itis

recommended that the scaling operation be verified by applying various signals

and checking the displayed reading.

If the totalizer/linearizer option is installed, the indicator, instead of

completing Module #1 and returning to “Pro 0”, will be ready to accept more

scaling points for multisegment linearization. The quantity and location of the

linearization points should be chosen very carefully to best utilize the segments

available. Refer to the section on linearization for a discussion on this matter.

PROGRAM NUMBER OF LINEAR SEGMENTS

This programming step loads in the number of linear segments desired for

multisegment linearization. If just single slope scaling is all that is desired, input

“1” for this step. If two segments are desired input “2”, etc. You must have one

more scaling point known than the number of segments selected (ie. 1 segment = 2

points, 2 segments = 3 points, etc). This step may be used to de-activate previously

programmed segments where lower segments would override (ex. changing

“SEGt” from 5 to 3 causes slopes4&5tobereplaced by an extension of slope 3).

“SEGt” < > “1” - “9”

If “1” was selected, the indicator will return to “Pro 0” since scaling for the

first segment was already completed. Otherwise, a choice of either returning to

“Pro 0” or commencing with the multislope-linearization scaling is offered.

“SCALE” < > “yES”

“NO”

KEY-IN DISPLAY VALUE FOR POINT #3

If “YES” was selected, the display value for the third point is entered.

Otherwise, the indicator returns to “Pro 0”.

“dSP 3” < > “-99999” to “99999”

APPLY SIGNAL TO INDICATOR FOR POINT #3

The signal level value for point 3 is applied.

“INP 3” < > “0-50”

The sequence of entering display and signal values continues with “dSP 4”

“INP 4”, “dSP 5”, etc. until the number programmed for “SEGt” is reached.

Upon completion, the indicator is scaled to the multiple segments. It is

recommended that the scaling be checked by applying signal values and

verifying for correct display values.

Note: As the “UP” or “DOWN” button is continually held in, the display will

progressively increment faster until the fourth most significant digit is

changing at a rate of 1 number per second.

-7-

MODULE #2 - SCALE BY KEY-IN METHOD

PROGRAM DECIMAL POINT POSITION

Select the desired decimal point position of the scaled display by pressing

either the “Up” or “Down” button.

Note: Whatever decimal point is selected will appear in succeeding

programming steps. Also, the “P” button must be pressed after each step to enter

the desired data and to proceed to the next step.

“ dECPNt”<>“0”

“0.0”

“0.00”

“0.000”

“0.0000”

PROGRAM ROUNDING INCREMENT AND RIGHT HAND

DUMMY ZEROS

Rounding values other than one cause the scaled number to ‘round’ to the

nearest rounding increment selected (ie. rounding of ‘5’ causes ‘122’ to round to

‘120’ and ‘123’ to round to ‘125’). If the process is inherently jittery, the display

value may be rounded to a higher value than one. This will allow the display to be

easier to read. If the range of the process exceeds the required resolution, (ex.

0-10,000 PSI, but only 10 PSI resolution required), a rounding increment of 10 will

effectively make the display more stable. This programming step is usually used in

conjunction with programmable digital filtering (Pro 4) to help stabilize display

readings. (If display stability appears to be a problem and the sacrifice in display

resolution is unacceptable, program higher levels of digital filtering or increase

the level of process dampening.) Rounding increments of 10, 20, 50, and, 100 may

also be used to add “dummy zeros” to the scaled readings, as desired.

“round”< > “1”

“2”

“5”

“10”

“20”

“50”

“100”

At this stage a choice of either return to “Pro 0” or continue with scaling of the

display is offered.

“SCALE” < > “yES”

“NO”

If “YES” was selected for the previous step, the scaling procedure is started. In

order to scale the indicator, two signal level values and two display values that

correspond to the signal values must be known. These four values are directly

entered into the indicator. An example of a signal-display pair is listed below:

3.000 PSI @ 4.000 mA AND 15.000 PSI @ 20.000 mA

Scaling point #1 Scaling point #2

Note that reverse acting indication can be accomplished by either reversing

the two signal points or the display value points, but not both. If both are reversed,

then forward (normal) acting indication will occur. In either case, do not reverse

the input signal wires because the indicator was designed to accept positive

signals only. With this scaling procedure, both the display values and signal

values are keyed in.

KEY-IN DISPLAY VALUE FOR SCALING POINT #1

“dSP 1” < > “-99999” to “99999” (ex. 3.000 PSI)

KEY-IN SIGNAL VALUE FOR SCALING POINT #1

“INP 1” < > “0-50” (ex. 4.000)

KEY-IN DISPLAY VALUE FOR SCALING POINT #2

“dSP 2” < > “-99999” to “99999” (ex. 15.000 PSI)

-8-

KEY-IN SIGNAL VALUE FOR SCALING POINT #2

“INP 2” < > “0-50” (ex. 20.000)

At this point, scaling is complete. The indicator will automatically calculate the

slope and offset of the display units. It is recommended that the scaling operation

be verified by applying various signals and checking the displayed reading.

If the totalizer/linearizer option is installed, the indicator, instead of

completing module #1 and returning to “Pro 0”, will be ready to accept more

scaling points for multisegment linearization. The quantity and location of the

linearization points should be chosen very carefully to best utilize the segments

available. Refer to the section on linearization for a discussion on this matter.

PROGRAM NUMBER OF LINEAR SEGMENTS

This programming step loads in the number of linear segments desired for

multisegment linearization. If just single slope scaling is all that is desired,

program “1” for this step. If two segments are desired, program “2”, etc. You

must have one more scaling point known than the number of segments selected

(ie. 1 segment = 2 points, 2 segments = 3 points, etc). This step may also be used

to de-activate previously programmed segments where lower segments would

override (ex. changing “SEGt” from 5 to 3 causes slopes 4 and 5 to be replaced

by an extension of slope 3).

“SEGt”<>“1”-“9”

If “1” was selected, the indicator will return to “Pro 0” since scaling for the

first slope was already completed. Otherwise, a choice of either returning to “Pro

0” or commencing with the multislope-linearization scaling is offered.

“SCALE” < > “yES”

“NO”

If “yes” was selected, the display value for the third point is entered.

Otherwise, the indicator returns to “Pro 0”.

KEY-IN DISPLAY VALUE FOR SCALING POINT #3

“dSP 3” < > “-99999” to “99999”

KEY-IN INPUT VALUE FOR SCALING POINT #3

“INP 3” < > “0-50”

The sequence of entering display and signal values continues with “dSP 4”

“INP 4”, “dSP 5”, etc. until the number programmed for “SEGt” is reached.

Upon completion, the indicator is scaled to the multiple segments. It is

recommended that the scaling be checked by exiting the programming mode and

applying signal values and verifying for correct display values.

Note: As the “UP” or “DOWN” button is continually held in, the display will

progressively increment faster until the fourth most significant digit is

changing at a rate of 1 number per second.

If the totalizer/linearizer option is installed, this selects whether the total can

be reset from the front panel.

“rSttOt” < > “yES” or “NO”

*Note: This function operates independent of the state of the “PGM. DIS.” Pin.

RE-ZERO INPUT *

If the totalizer/linearizer option is installed, this selects whether the signal can

be re-zeroed (tared) through the front panel.

“tArE” < > “yES” or “NO”

Note: The tare buffer can be cleared by “stepping” through “Pro 2”, using the P

button or via serial transmission.

Depending on functions selected under Pro 3 and Pro 6, alarms, hysteresis, peak,

and valley values can be monitored and/or changed when PGM. DIS. is tied to

COMM. This provides a “QUICK PROGRAMMING” method for “day to day”

process changes. (See QUICK PROGRAMMING SECTION for more details.)

*Note: This function operates independent of the state of the “PGM. DIS.” Pin.

MODULE #4 - PROGRAMMING DIGITAL FILTER AND REMOTE INPUT

PROGRAM DIGITAL FILTERING

If the displayed process signal is difficult to read due to small process

variations or noise, increased levels of filtering will help to stabilize the display.

This programming step may be used in conjunction with display rounding

programming (Pro1&2)to help minimize this effect. The digital filter used is an

“adaptive” filter. That is, the filter coeffecients change dynamically according to

the nature of the input signal. This feature simultaneously allows the filter to

settle quickly for large input changes while providing a stable display reading for

normal process variations. Because of the adaptive nature of the filter, it cannot

be characterized in terms of a time constant. The following table lists the

maximum settling time for a step input to within 99% of the final value.

Filter Value Settling Time (99%)

“FILtEr” < > “0” - no digital filtering 1.5 sec.

“1” - normal filtering 2 sec.

“2” - increased filtering 6 sec.

“3”

- maximum filtering 13 sec.

PROGRAM FUNCTION OF E1-CON &

OPTIONAL E2-CON PIN

The functions of the remote input “E1-CON” pin (TBA #4) and, if the totalizer

option is installed, the remote input “E2-CON” pin (TBA #8) are the same.

Functions are activated, as described in the appropriate function, when

connected to signal common (TBA #5). Whether a function is edge or level

activated, it must be held low for a minimum of 20 msec in order for the function

to occur. The remote input pins can be used simultaneously and with any

combination of functions. When the pins are tied together and activated,

E1-CON function is generally performed first.

“E1-CON” < > “0” - A negative going edge re-zeros (tares) the input signal.

Note: The tare buffer can be cleared by “stepping”

through “Pro 2”, using the P button or via serial

transmission.

“1” - A negative going edge resets the contents of the totalizer

to zero. Totalization commences regardless of the state

of the input.

“2” - A negative going edge resets the contents of the totalizer

to zero and allows totalization as long as the input is low.

If the input goes high, totalization is stopped and the

contents are saved. This acts as a totalization enable

control from time T1 to T2.

“3” - A low level allows totalization as long as the input is low.

If the input goes high, totalization is stopped and the

contents are saved. This acts as a totalization enable

control from time T1 to T2.

“4” - A low level holds the display (display hold). While this

input is low, the indicator continues to process the input

signal and drive the alarms, totalizer, etc. with the actual

signal. The contents of the totalizer are stored at the same

time the input display is held.

Note: If display hold is activated and input value is

requested via serial, the value on the display will be

sent instead of the actual input value at that time.

“5” - A negative going edge resets both peak and valley buffers.

Note: After P/V is called up, a change will not appear on

the display until the next time the P/V is called up.

“6” - A negative going edge resets only the peak buffer and

the indicator enters a peak reading display mode as

long as the input is low. If the input goes high, peak

detection and indication are stopped and the last peak

reading is retained.

“7” - A negative going edge resets only the valley buffer and

the indicator enters a valley reading display mode as

long as the input is low. If the input goes high, valley

detection and indication are stopped and the last valley

reading is retained.

-12-

“8” - If the alarm option is installed, a negative going edge

resets the latched alarm(s).

“9” - If the alarm option is installed, a low level resets a

latched or unlatched alarm into its inactive state. This

provides manual override of alarms for system startup

and other unusual events such as system testing.

“10” - A negative going edge toggles the display between

“input” and “total” (from input to total, or vice versa).

No action is taken on the positive going edge.

“11” - A negative going edge zeros (tares)

the input signal and

adds the value that was on the input display to the

totalizer value. The time-base, scale factor and low

signal cut-out in “Module #5” are in effect disabled,

when this function is selected. Example: 25.0 pounds of

one ingredient is loaded, input is tared to 0.0, totalizer =

25.0 pounds. 50.0 pounds of another ingredient are

loaded, input is tared to 0.0, totalizer = 75.0 pounds. This

acts as a batch totalization.

“12” - Display hold with tare. A negative going edge tares

(zeros) the input signal. Prior to the tare operation, the

input signal is saved and held (display hold) as long as

the remote input pin is low. On the positive edge the

input display will show zero. If there is a change to the

input signal while the remote input is low, the display

will reflect (show) the change at the positive edge.

“13” - Instrument reading synchronization. A low level

disables all meter operations (alarms, total, analog out,

etc.). A positive edge resets the start of the A/D

conversion, to allow synchronization with external

processes and controls. While this function is active, the

other E-CON pin will be acknowledged.

“14” - Print request. Transmits data according to the print options

that have been selected in Program Module #7. If the low

time exceeds 800 msec, a second print-out will occur.

“E2-CON” < > If the totalizer option is installed, E2-CON has the same

programmable functions as E1-CON.

-13-

MODULE #5 - PROGRAM TOTALIZER/INTEGRATOR

Programming for the totalizer/integrator consists of four programming steps:

totalizer decimal point position, time base, scale factor and low signal disable.

Note that the decimal point position of the totalizer can be independent of the

decimal point position of the scaled input signal. The totalizer value will roll over

and flash when the total exceeds, 999999 or -99999, indicating an overflow

condition. Reverse signal input will cause the totalizer value to count in the

opposite direction and eventually no longer be in an overflow condition.

PROGRAM DECIMAL POINT POSITION FOR THE TOTALIZER

The decimal point position for the totalizer are as follows:

“dECPNt” < > “0”

“0.0”

“0.00”

“0.000”

“0.0000”

PROGRAM TOTALIZER/INTEGRATOR TIME BASE

The time base determines the rate at which readings increase. The totalizer

display is updated 2 1/2 times per second regardless of time base selected, but

longer time bases decrease the magnitude of each increase. The three time bases

are per second, per minute and per hour. A constant signal input of 1000 units, for

example, would totalize to 1000 units in one second (with a TB of 1 sec.), 1000

units in one minute (with a TB of 1 min.), and 1000 units in one hour (with a TB of

1 hr.). (Note: Input changes can be made synchronous to the display by

programming E1 or optional E2-CON pin for function 13, Instrument reading

synchronization.) A multiplying scale factor may be used to span the standard

time ranges (or divide if scale factor < 1). The following equation expresses the

totalization process.

0.000 1000

0.0000 10000

“tbASE” < > “0” - per second

“1” - per minute

“2” - per hour

PROGRAM THE TOTALIZER SCALE FACTOR

As explained in the previous programming step, a multiplying scale factor can

be used to scale the update rate as required. This may be used to span the standard

ranges. A scale factor of “1.000” has no effect on the standard ranges.

“SCLFAC” < > “0.001” to “100.000”

PROGRAM THE LOW-END CUTOUT (low signal level disable)

In order to prevent false totalization during system startup or other low process

situations where totalization is undesirable, a programmable setpoint can be used

to disable totalization when the scaled input signal falls below this low-end

cutout level.

“Lo-cut” < > “-99999” to “999999”

-14-

MODULE #6 - PROGRAM ALARM/SETPOINT

If the alarm option is installed, this module is used to configure the operation

of the alarms to a variety of combinations. The programmable options are HI/LO

acting, auto/manual reset (latching), tracking, assignment to signal or totalizer,

display alarms, alarm values and hysteresis (deadband) values.

ALARM TRACKING

With alarm tracking, whenever alarm #2 is changed, alarm #1 will also change

so that the offset between alarm #2 and alarm #1 remains the same. This is useful

for hierarchical setpoints (pre-alarm and alarm) when one change applies to both

alarm values. When programming from the front panel, tracking only occurs

when PGM. DIS. is low (front panel lock-out mode, alarm #1 will not appear).

Tracking will always occur if alarm #2 is modified via serial communications

independent of PGM. DIS.

“trAc” < > “yES” or “NO”

DISPLAY ALARMS

If display alarms are desired, a message will flash on the display every 5-10

secs when an alarm activates. For alarm 1 the message will flash “AL1 on” and

alarm 2 will flash “AL2 on”, this warns an operator of an alarm condition. The

message will stop when the unit is no longer in an alarm condition.

“dISP” < > “yES” or “NO”

AUTO OR MANUAL RESET FOR ALARM #1

The reset action of alarm #1 may be programmed to reset automatically

(unlatched) or be programmed to require a manual reset (latched), through either

a remote input (E1-CON or optional E2-CON) or through the front panel.

Latched alarms are usually used when an operator is required to take some action

for the alarm condition.

“LAtC-1” < > “yES” or “NO”

ALARM #1 ASSIGNMENT TO INPUT SIGNAL OR TOTALIZER

Alarm #1 may be programmed to activate on either the input signal or the

totalizer value. If the totalizer option is not installed, this step defaults to the input.

“ASN-1” < > “INPUt” or “totAL”

PROGRAM VALUE FOR ALARM #1

The range of the alarm value is -99,999 to 999,999.

“AL-1” < > “-99999” to “999999”

PROGRAM HYSTERESIS VALUE FOR ALARM #1 (Cannot be

programmed if alarm latch is programmed)

The hysteresis (deadband) value for alarm #1 may be programmed from 1 to

99,999. The value is either added to or subtracted from the alarm value depending

on whether the alarm is high or low acting. (See “alarms” section for operation.)

“HyS-1” < > “1” to “999999”

ALARM #1 HIGH OR LOW ACTING

The action of alarm #1 may be programmed to activate either when the signal

goes above the alarm value (high acting) or goes below it (low acting).

“Act-1” < > “HI” or “LO”

AUTO OR MANUAL RESET FOR ALARM #2

The reset action of alarm #2 may be programmed to reset automatically

(unlatched) or be programmed to require a manual reset (latched), through either

a remote input (E1-CON or optional E2-CON) or through the front panel.

Latched alarms are usually used when an operator is required to take some action

for the alarm condition.

“LAtC-2” < > “yES” or “NO”

ALARM #2 ASSIGNMENT TO INPUT SIGNAL OR TOTALIZER

Alarm #2 may be programmed to activate on either the input signal or the

totalizer value. If the totalizer option is not installed, this step defaults to the input.

“ASN-2” < > “INPUt” or “totAL”

-15-

PROGRAM VALUE FOR ALARM #2

The range of the alarm value is -99,999 to 999,999.

“AL-2” < > “-99999” to “999999”

PROGRAM HYSTERESIS VALUE FOR ALARM #2 (Cannot be

programmed if alarm latch is programmed)

The hysteresis (deadband) value for alarm #2 may be programmed from 1 to

999,999. The value is either added to or subtracted from the alarm value depending

on whether the alarm is high or low acting. (See “alarms” section for operation.)

“HyS-2” < > “1” to “999999”

ALARM #2 HIGH OR LOW ACTING

The action of alarm #2 may be programmed to activate either when the signal

goes above the alarm value (high acting) or goes below it (low acting).

“Act-2” < > “HI” or “LO”

Note: Depending on options selected under Pro 3 and Pro 6, alarms, hysteresis,

peak, and valley values can be monitored and/or changed when PGM. DIS.

is tied to COMM. This provides a “QUICK PROGRAMMING” method for

“day to day” process changes. (See QUICK PROGRAMMING SECTION

for more details.)
