GETTING STARTED

1. Install the control as described on page 4.

2. Wire your control following the instructions on pages 6-7. Please read the Precautions section located at the end of this manual before wiring the control.

3. For best results when programming changes are necessary, make all changes to the Initial Setting mode (Pages 20-22) before making changes to the Regulation Mode (Pages 17-19) or Operation Mode (Pages 15-16). If any error messages occur, check the Diagnostic Error Message Section (Page 26) for assistance.

INSTALLATION

Mount the instrument in a location that will not be subject to excessive temperature, shock, or vibration. All models are designed for mounting in an enclosed panel.

Select the position desired for the instrument on the panel. Prepare the panel by cutting and deburring the required opening per the panel cut out dimensions listed below. Follow the mounting instructions listed on page 5. Lastly, wire the controller per the appropriate wiring diagram listed on page 6.

PANEL CUTOUT DIMENSIONS

MOUNTING METHOD

Step 1: From the front of the panel, slide the controller housing through

the cut out. The housing gasket should be against the housing flange before installing.

Step 2: Insert the mounting brackets into the mounting grooves on the

top and bottom of the controller (16B, 8B, and 4B). For the 32B, slide the mounting collar over the housing from the rear of the panel.

Step 3: Push the mounting brackets forward until the bracket stops at

the panel wall.

Step 4: Insert and tighten the screws on the bracket to secure the

controller in place. (The screw torque should be 0.8 kgf-cm).

Do not run thermocouple or other class 2 wiring in the same conduit as power leads. Use only the type of thermocouple or RTD probe for which the control has been programmed. Maintain separation between wiring of sensor, auxiliary in or out, and other wiring. See the Initial Setting Menu for input selection.

For thermocouple input always use extension leads of the same type designated for your thermocouple.

For supply connections use No. 16 AWG or larger wires rated for at least 75˚ C. Use conductors only. All line voltage output circuits must have a common disconnect and be connected to the same pole of the disconnect.

Input wiring for thermocouple, current, and RTD; and output wiring for current 14 VDC is rated CLASS 2.

FRONT KEY FUNCTIONS

Key functions are as follows:

INDEX: Pressing the INDEX key advances the display to the next menu item.

UP ARROW: Increments a value or changes a menu item. If pressed

during the Operation Mode, the set point value will be increased.

DOWN ARROW: Decrements a value or changes a menu item. If pressed during the Operation Mode, the set point value will be decreased.

ENTER: Stores the value or item change. If not pressed, the previously stored value or item will be retained. When pressed during the Operation Mode, the controller switches to the Regulation Mode. If held for more than 3 seconds during the Operation Mode, the controller switches to the

Initial Setting Mode. If pressed during the Regulation Mode or Initial Setting Mode, the controller will return to the Operation Mode.

SECURITY FEATURES

The B series controller has two built in security lock settings to prevent unauthorized personnel from changing parameter settings. These parameters are set in the Operation Mode.

The LoC1 setting affects all parameters in the controller. If LoC1 setting is enabled, the operator will have to unlock the controller to make any changes to the controller’s parameters.

The LoC2 setting affects all parameters except the set point. If LoC2 setting is enabled, the only parameter that the operator will be able to change is the set point. In order to change any other parameters, the operator will have to unlock the control before making a change.

In order to unlock the control, the operator must depress the ENTER and INDEX key simultaneously.

CONTROL OPERATION DESCRIPTION

The HOME display is the normal display while the control is operating. If no errors or functions are active, the HOME display will indicate the Process Variable (the temperature, pressure, flow, %RH, etc.) that is being measured on the top display and the Set Variable on the bottom display.

Items that can change the HOME display are the Ramp and Soak function and any error messages. Descriptions of these special displays follow.

If the Ramp and Soak feature is active, then bottom display will show the current execution pattern and current execution step. The UP and DOWN arrows can be pressed to change the bottom display to show the Set Point (SP) of the current execution step or the Time Remaining (r-ti) of the current execution step. After changing the bottom display to either the Time Remaining or the Set Point, the ENTER key must be pressed to display the values.

Error Messages are shown on page 26.

OPTIONS

Event Input

When the controller is ordered with the Event Input Option (See page 3 for ordering information), two event inputs are available. The event input is triggered by contact closure between event 1 (EV1) or event (EV2) contact terminal and signal ground (SG) contact terminal.

Event 1 controls the output operation of the control. When the event 1 contact terminals are open, the output is active. When the event 1 contact terminals are closed, the output is deactivated. The outputs can also be controlled via the Run/Stop parameter using the front keypad or by using the RS-485 communications.

Event 2 allows the user to switch between two temperature set points. Each temperature set point has independent control parameters.

Current Transformer Alarm Function

The current transformer option allows the user to have an alarm contact trigger due to a loss of current or a surge in current to the control output. When using the current transformer input, the desired alarm contact should be set to alarm type 13 in the Initial Setting Menu (Page 21). The current transformer should be wired according to the appropriate wiring diagram on page 6 and page 7. The high and low alarm set points can be set from 0.5 to 30 Amps. The display resolution is 0.1 Amps and the accuracy is ±0.5 Amps with the included current transformer.

Heating, Cooling or Dual Loop Control

Temperature Control can be achieved by either heating or cooling. In the B series controllers, heating and cooling can be operated simultaneously using Dual Loop Output Control to maintain a temperature set point. When Dual Loop Output Control is used, control outputs must be connecting to the heating and cooling devices. Please refer to the following for the operation of each setting.

Control Modes are selected by changing the S-HC parameter in the Initial Setting Mode.

Select HEAt, for heating or reverse acting control for output 1. If selected, output 2 will become alarm 3.

Select CooL, for cooling or direct acting control for output 1. If selected, output 2 will become alarm 3.

Select H1C2 or C1H2 for Dual Loop Output Control for output 1 and 2. If H1C2 is selected, output 1 would be fore heating or reverse acting control and output 2 would be for cooling or direct acting control. If C1H2 is selected, output 1 would be for cooling or direct acting control and output 2 would be for heating or reverse acting control.

Setting the control mode to PID when the controller is set for Dual Loop Output Control Activates the Proportional Band Coefficient (CoEF) parameter and the Dead Band (dead) parameter.

The Proportional Band Coefficient (CoEF) sets the Proportional band value for Output 2 based on the Proportional band of output 1. The Proportional Band of Output 2 would be equal to the Proportional Band (Pn) of Output 1 multiplied by the Proportional Band Coefficient (CoEF). The Integral Time (in) and the Derivative Time (dn) will be the same for both Outputs.

The Dead Band (dEAd) parameter sets an area in which the heating and cooling outputs are operating at 0% on. The Dead Band is centered on the Set Point in Dual Loop Output Control mode. Please see the Dead Band illustrated on page 19.
