Safety instruction

Warning! Inadmissible operating parameters! Undercutting and exceeding respectively of limit values may cause danger to persons

and material and may lead to functional and operational disturbances.

Attention! Malfunctions at the DS 500! Faulty installation and insufficient maintenance may lead to malfunctions of the DS 500

which may affect the measuring results and which may lead to misinterpretations.

Please check whether this manual corresponds with the device type.

Please attend to all notes indicated in this instruction manual. It contains essential information which has to be followed during installation, operation and maintenance. Therefore, this instruction manual has to be read categorically by the technician as well as by the responsible user/qualified personnel before installation, initiation and maintenance.

This instruction manual has to be available at any time at the operation site of the DS 500. Regional and national regulations respectively, have to be observed in addition to this instruction

manual if necessary. In case of any obscurities or questions with regard to this manual or the instrument please contact

CS Instruments GmbH.

1 Safety instructions

1.1 General

Measures:

• Make sure that the DS 500 is only operated within the admissible limit values indicated on the type label.

• Strict observance of the performance data of the DS 500 in connection with the application.

• Do not exceed the admissible storage and transportation temperature.

Further safety instructions:

• Attention should also be paid to the applicable national regulations and safety instructions during installation and operation.

• The DS 500 is not allowed to be used in explosive areas.

Additional remarks:

• Do not overheat the instrument!

• Change of battery or SD-Card are only allowed to be carried out by authorized qualified personnel.

and in strainless state!

DS 500 V1.55 Page 7 of 124

Safety instructions

Warning! Supply voltage! Contact with supply voltage carrying non-insulated parts may cause an electric shock

with injury and death.

Danger! Missing earth connection!

When the earth connection (protective earth) is missing, there is the risk in the event of malfunction, that contactable, conductive components may carry supply voltage. Touching of such parts leads to an electric shock with injuries and death. It is imperative to connect the plant to earth or to connect the

protective conductor according to the regulations.

Do not use plug adapters at the power plug. Have the power plug replaced by qualified skilled persons, if

required.

1.2 Installation

Measures:

• Note all applicable regulations for electrical installations (e.g. VDE 0100)!

• Carry out maintenance only in strain less state!

• All electric works are only allowed to be carried out by authorized qualified personnel.

DS 500 V1.55 Page 8 of 124

Safety instructions

DANGER! Supply voltage!

When wiring the connecting lead, it must be ensured that the double or reinforced insulation be-tween the electric circuits that are dangerous in the case of contact and the contactable secondary circuit remains maintained.

NOTE!

The additional insulation must be suitable for a test voltage of 1500 V alternating current. The thickness of the insulation must be at least 0.016 inch. E.g. flexible insulating tubing, type BIS 85 (Bierther GmbH).

The plug of the power supply cord is used as a separator. This separator must be clearly recognizable and easily accessible by the user. A plug connector with a CEE7/7 system is necessary.

All the electrical lines carrying supply voltage or another voltage that is dangerous in the case of contact (power supply cord, alarm and indicator relays), must additionally be equipped with double or reinforced insulation (EN 61010-1). This can be ensured by using plastic-sheathed cables, a second insulation (e.g. flexible insulating tubing), or correspondingly suitable lines with reinforced insulation. The connecting cables can be equipped, for example, with flexible insulating tubing. The additional flexible insulating tubing must withstand the electrical and mechanical stresses which can occur during the intended use (see EN 61010-1, Clause 6.7.2.2.1).

The additional insulation of the connecting leads (mains connection, alarm and indicator relays) can be implemented as follows:

3 2 1

(1) - Terminals (connectors) (2) – Flexible insulating tubing for the connecting leads (3) – Connecting cable

DS 500 V1.55 Page 9 of 124

Application area

Versatile:

Up to 12 sensors, incl. all CS sensors (consumption, dew point, pressure, current, KTY, PT 100, PT 1000) are identified automatically by DS 500. Optional analogue sensors (0/4 - 20 mA, 0 - 1/10/30 V, pulse) can be configured easily and quickly. Digital sensors can be connected via

RS 485, Modbus RTU and SDI.

Flexible: Network-compatible and worldwide remote data transmission via Ethernet, integrated web server.

Alarm relay / fault indication:

Up to 32 threshold values can be configured freely and allocated to 4 different alarm relay. Collective alarms are possible.

2 Application area

Our long-term hands-on experience in measurement and control technology was implemented in the new DS 500.

From recording of the measured data, automatic sensor identification, indication on a big colour screen, alerting, storage up to remote read-out via web server, all that is possible with DS 500. By means of the CS-Soft, software alarms can be sent via SMS or e-mail.

On the big 7' colour screen with touch panel all information is available at a glance. The operation is very easy. All measured values, measured curves and threshold exceeding’s are indicated. The progression of the curve, since the beginning of the measurement, can be viewed by an easy slide of the finger.

Daily, weekly and monthly reports, with costs in € and counter reading in m3, for each consumption sensor are completing the sophisticated system concept.

The huge difference to ordinary paperless chart recorders reveals in the easy initiation as well as in the evaluation of the measured data. All sensors are identified directly and powered by DS 500. Everything is matched and tuned.

Intended use

3 Intended use

The DS 500 data logger serves for the stationary measured data acquisition and storage of analogue and digital input signals.

The DS 500 data logger is exclusively designed and constructed for the proper application purpose that is described herein and must only be used correspondingly.

A check in order to ascertain whether or not the device is suitable for the chosen employment must be carried out by the user. It must be ensured that the medium is compatible with the components which come into contact with it. The technical data listed in the data sheet are binding.

Improper handling or operation outside the technical specifications is impermissible. Claims of any kind on the basis of improper use are excluded.

Important: The IP addresses of PC and DS 500 must be statically assigned (DHCP off) and have to be

in the same network. If the IP-address of the DS 500 has changed, you have to reboot!

Remark: IP-address of the DS 500: See chapter, 13.5.3 Network settings

Reboot the DS 500: See chapter, 13.5.8 Factory Reset

The DS 500 can be connected with the PC by a crossover cable, which has a RJ45 plug on each side, or an Ethernet cable with a crossover adapter.

After connecting the DS 500 via a suitable cable to the PC, you can make graphical and tabular data evaluations with the CS Soft Basic software.

Operation DS 500/Main menu (Home)

After switching on the DS 500 all channels are initialized and the main menu will appear.

Attention: For the first initiation, there may be no channels preset!

13 Operation DS 500

The operation is largely self-explanatory and menu-driven via the touch panel. The selection of the respective menu items occur via short "tapping" with the finger or a soft round pen.

Attention: Please use no pens or other objects with sharp edges! The foil can be damaged!

After sensors are connected, they also have to be configured. Inputs or changes can be made with all white deposit fields.

The measured values can be represented as a curve or values.

Words in green font refer mainly to the pictures in the section of the chapter, but also on important menu paths or menu items that are related to are in green font.

The menu navigation is generally in a green font! The table of contents and chapter references in blue font contain links to the respective chapter title.
