Instruction Manual
Features
One of the most advanced on the market today, this
microprocessor-based panel tachometer not only measures rotational, linear and flow rate speeds, but can also
function as an elapsed time counter and ratio meter. By
choosing the desired input/output module(s), you can
design virtually any system imaginable.
!
Mounts easily — no brackets or screws or any other
hardware needed.
!
Tolerates a wide variation of voltages.
!
Immune to electrically noisy environments.
!
Programmable parameters and functions via front
panel membrane push-button switches.
!
Accepts a variety of input and output modules
!
No need to remember mathematical formulas.
!
Highly accurate.
!
Self-testing.
Operational Precautions
!
If the unit is used in a caustic environment, we
suggest you use a NEMA 4X enclosure.
!
Keep unit free of vibration and shock.
!
When installing unit, keep power and sensor wires
separate. Tie cable shield to terminal E (earth ground).
!
After inserting wires, tighten terminal screws securely.

Mounting Unit
Our 1/8 DIN case design eliminates the need for brackets
and screws for installation. With the tachometer in a level
position, insert it into the panel cutout. Gently push the
face of the unit until the front bezel locks into place. If the
tachometer case is loose, adjust the integral bracket with
the enclosed tool.
Removing unit
From the rear of the tachometer, alternately push the unit
from the left and right. This will free it for easy removal.

Connections
1&2 DC input terminals.
3 Earth ground. Connect all cable shielding to this
terminal.
4 12 VDC 50mA max. This sensor power supply is for
any sensor that requires external power
5 Switch closure input. To be used with a relay or
solenoid. The input frequency must be less than 20Hz.
6 For use with open collector sensors. Connect the
sensor's signal output wire. No need for an external
pull-up resistor.
7 Terminal to accept signals from rotary encoders or
pulse generators.
8 Standard input terminal for magnetic pick-ups and
proximity switches.
9 Signal ground or common.
Mode Selections
The DT-5TG has five modes of operation. Each mode
uses separate parameters for you to program:
Mode Function Application
1 Rate measurement Measures rotational
(frequency input) linear or flow rate speeds.
Factory set.
2 Elapsed time counter Times variable processes.
3 Rate measurement For tachogenerator or
voltmeter. Requires input
module DOP-VF.
4 Ratio meter Compares two signals in
either absolute or percent
ratio. Requires input
module DOP-RM.
5 Self test Diagnostically tests LED
display, panel switches
and input circuitry.
