3 Product and functional description

3.1 Function diagram

The operating company is responsible for ensuring that all required maintenance, inspection and instal­lation work is carried out by qualified specialized personnel.

1.7 Explanation of symbols

3.2 Design and mode of operation

This device is based on an electronic analysis switch that analyses the measuring signal of an ex­ternal transmitter. The main task is to display and analyse the measured signal. Optionally, an output signal can be provided that is proportional to the in­put signal.
The external transmitter is connected to the analy­sis circuit using a flexible cable with plug connect­ors which also acts as the power supply. Only the supplied transmitters may be connected.

4 Installation and assembly

The device is designed for installation onto flat as­sembly plates. For screw connection to the assem­bly plate, the device features four assembly bores on its back, which can be used for Ø 3.5 mm tap­ping screws. Optionally, the device can be delivered with a wall-mounting plate.

5 Commissioning

All electrical supply, operating and measuring lines, and the pressure connections must have been cor­rectly installed before commissioning. All supply lines are arranged so that there are no mechanical forces acting on the device.

5.1 Configuration

During commissioning there are a number of setting options that allow the device to be adapted to the measuring point and measuring task. To facilitate the input, the individual parameters are placed into groups in so-called menu levels.
Depending on the device model1 some menu items are not available. For instance, no switch points can be set on a device without contacts.
All the device settings can be made easily on the PC using the transmitter PC interface. Here, the parameters are
directly visible and accessible. Also, it is possible to load and save the entire configuration; it can also be printed out for checking (see accesso­ries).
presentation (see Parameter MB decimal place in section 5.3.5).).
The unit is shown on the right of the display. If the device is equipped with contacts, a closed contact is always symbolised by an inverted text "SP1" or "SP2".
Various colours can be selected for the back light­ing. Depending on the measured value, the colour of the back lighting can be automatically changed. This can be used e.g. to depict good/poor differ­ences. The back lighting can also be deactivated.
The measured value can also be shown in a bar chart. The measured value is also shown in smaller pictures as a number.
During the programming, the menu items and the associated parameters are shown on the display. The device continues to function whilst the parame­ters are being set; apart from one exception, the changes come into effect instantly. The exception here is a change of switching times - here the pre­viously valid time must have run down.

5.3.1 Menu Level Switch points

The two switching outputs are configured by four parameters respectively.
For the switch point 1 these are
Accordingly for switch point 2:
SP1 On defines the activation point, SP1 Off the deactivation point of switch output 1. The values are shown in the valid unit and set accordingly. The values are shown in the valid unit and set accord­ingly.
Together, the two parameters determine the switch function of switch output 1:
If SP1 Off < SP1 ON, the output switches on, if the measured value exceeds SP1 ON. It is only switched off again if the measured value SP1 Off is undercut (hysteresis function).
If SP1 On = SP1 Off, the output switches on if the measured value exceeds SP1 On and off if the measured value undercuts SP1 Off.
If SP1 Off > SP1 ON, the output switches on, if SP1 On < Measured value < SP1 Off applies (window function).

Both parameters can be set independently over the entire range.
SP1 Delay allows the reaction of the switch output 1 to be delayed by between 0 and 1800 s. This val­ue applies equally for switching on and off.
SP1 Function changes the function of the switch output. It is possible here to define whether the con­tact should work as an open contact (NO) or a break contact (NC).

5.3.2 Menu Level Input

If there are unsteady pressure readings during op­eration, you can use the parameters Damping and Zero-point window to stabilise the reading (and the output signal).
The effect of parameter Damping (on the reading, output signal and switching points, if available, but not on the measuring cell!) corresponds to that of a capillary throttle. You can set the response time to pressure jumps in the range 0.0 to 100 s. But with maximum damping, it will take more than 2 minutes for the reading to also reach zero after a pressure jump from nominal pressure (100 %) to zero!
In many cases, unsteady readings are not a prob­lem during normal operating mode, but this is not true for the idle state, i.e. if a measured value of ze­ro pressure is expected.
The parameter Zero-point window is designed to solve this. Its value defines a range around zero at which the measured value is set to zero (see fig.).
The display only stops showing zero when the pressure leaves the set window. When twice the window value is reached, the measuring pressure and the display correspond again. This avoids jumps in the display.
fore the offset correction, the zero-point window should be set to zero.
Select the Offset correction parameter and correct the reading using the buttons þ and ÿ until zero is shown.
When setting the offset, the current measured value is displayed. The zero-point window is not active during the offset setting.

5.3.3 Menu Level Measuring

The transmitter output signal primarily depends on the sensed pressure. However, you have the option of adjusting the output signal to a large extent to suit your requirements.
Note: However the basic measuring range (indicated on the type label) and the type of output signal (voltage / cur­rent) are not variable.
The parameters Start of measuring range and End of measuring range initially define the two pressures between which the output signal will change at all. Both values are adjustable across the entire basic measuring range. The set values also refer to the pressure (in the respective unit). How­ever, the signal values (current / voltage) for Start of measuring range and End of measuring range are fixed.
If Start of measuring range is smaller than End of measuring range, this is called an increasing characteristic curve; the output signal increases due to the increasing pressure.
If End of measuring range is smaller than Start of measuring range, this is a decreasing characteris­tic curve and the output signal decreases due to decreasing pressure.
It makes sense to set the Offset (zero-point dis­placement) if, without pressure (remove measuring line), the display shows a value that is not zero. Be-
6 | 16 Page
The difference between the values Start of meas- uring range and End of measuring range must be at least 25 % of the basic measuring range.
You can select a unit other than the unit of the basic measuring range with the parameter Unit. The user should remember however that not every unit is suitable. The conversion is automatic.
The parameter Limit allows the display to be limited to the range between Start of measuring range and End of measuring range.
This makes sense when content is measured to avoid "negative contents". If Limit is set to "no", those measured values that are greater or smaller than the end values are shown.

5.3.4 Menu Level Output

The parameters min. output, max. output and er­ror signal define the limits of the output signal that
may not be undercut or exceeded regardless of the pressure. The limit values take priority over the range defined by the Start of measuring range and End of measuring range!
These parameters primarily serve to prevent error messages in downstream systems caused by brief overstepping of measuring ranges.
The parameter Min. output is usually only used for
devices with an output signal 4…20 mA because
frequently values of below 3.8 mA are evaluated as error signals. The Max. output value can be used for the voltage and current to limit the maximum value.
The value defined via the parameter Error signal is issued if the device detects an internal error and can no longer work correctly. It should be noted here that not all potential errors and faults can be detected by the device itself.

5.3.5 Menu Level Function

TABLE: This function allows the input in the display and output to be freely adjusted via a table which has up to 30 support points. Pairs of values com­prising the measured value and display value are issued for the support points.
Caution: When switching from TABLE to another function, the table is initial­ised again and the existing values are lost.
The display range is defined with the parameters
Measuring range decimal points, Start of meas­uring range and End of measuring range. The
user can select the configuration freely. Using the parameter decimal place MB, it is possi-
ble to select between a 5 or 6-digit presentation. The resolution is not increased. Only an extra zero (in the case of 6 digits, two zeros) are added.
This serves the correct display of larger values. The measuring range must be positive for the 6 digit presentation.
The Unit MB gives the user the option of using a completely independent unit. Letters, numbers or special characters can be used. The unit can be max. 4 characters long.
If the function TABLE is selected, then it is also necessary to state the Number of pairs. It is de­fined here how many pairs of values (support points) are used in the table. At least 3, maximum 30 sup­port points are allowed.
The reading and the output signal can be modified in the Function menu to meet the special require­ments.
There are the following functions: LINEAR: Linear implementation of the input on the
display and the output. The range defined in the menu "Measuring" serves as the measuring range. If the function LINEAR is active, the other menu items are cancelled.
SQUARE ROOTED: Here, the input signal is square rooted before being sent to the display and the output. This is necessary e.g. for flow meas­urements with differential pressure. A free unit can be defined for the display. To do this, the start and end of the display range and the number of decimal points are defined. It is also possible to define the unit with 4 characters.
Caution: If the number of value pairs is changed, the table is initialised again and the existing values are deleted.
The individual value pairs can be seen and changed with Value pair 1 to (maximum) Value pair 30.
+0.0 mbar +0.0 %
A value pair comprises a measured value (left side) and a display value (right side). The measured val­ue must lie within the measuring range and the dis­play value must lie within the defined "free unit". The respective limits are shown during input. The table must contain increasing values.

5.3.6 Menu Level Display

Menu change for colour = Auto1:
Menu change for colour = Auto2:
The parameters for influencing the display are summarised in this menu.
The most important parameter is Colour. A fixed background colour (red, green, yellow, blue, pink, and turquoise, white) can be selected here. There are also two auto-functions with colour switching available.
Auto-function red-yellow-green (Auto2)
Note: If a range cannot be used, the as-
sociated switch thresholds can be set to the same value.
Example:
The parameter Colour is set to Auto2. Only the green, yellow and red ranges are required here. To fade out the lower ranges red and yellow, the switch thresholds "red-yellow switching" and "yellow-green switching" are set to the start of the measuring range.
Auto1: red-green, Auto2: red-yellow-green.
Alternatively, the background illumination can be permanently deactivated.
In the mode with the automatic colour switchover, it is possible to enter the required switch thresholds "red-yellow switchover", "yellow-green switchover", green-yellow switchover, "yellow-red switchover" or "red-green switchover" and "green-red switchover".
The switching thresholds can be moved within the measuring range. The series of switch points can­not be altered.
Auto-function red-green (Auto1)
8 | 16 Page
The parameter Hysteresis can be used to prevent fast and unwanted colour changes. The hysteresis is set in the range 0.1... 10%.
Note: In the case of large hysteresis values, steps must be taken to ensure that the ranges of the individual colours
do not overlap. Otherwise it is possible that the colour change may not function in the de­sired way.
The parameter Delay offers a further option to pre­vent unwanted colour changes.
Language Software info Config info Statistics Password Load config. Config. Save
The colour change here can be delayed between 0…1800 s.
If permanent lighting is not required, the parameter Lighting can be used to define when the lighting should be switched off after the last time a button is pressed. In addition to permanent lighting, automat­ic shut-down after 10…600 s is also possible. The set time is only valid if the parameter Background colour is not set to "off".
Amongst other things, the legibility of the display depends on the temperature and the reading angle. To ensure optimised legibility, this can be adjusted using the parameter Contrast. When the contrast is changed, it is possible that the display appears empty or almost completely black. In this case, the contrast must be turned up or down.
The parameter Bar chart is used to switch the dis­play as follows. Either the measured value is dis­played with large digits or the display uses small digits and an additional bar chart to show the measured value more quickly.

5.3.7 Menu Level System

Caution: The user is not able to delete
a forgotten password!
The user can load a saved configuration via the menu item Load config. This means that a functional set of parameters can be loaded after try­ing out various settings.
Note: If the user has not yet saved a configuration, the default values (status on delivery) are loaded. In this case, any
measuring range spreads or switch points are reset and the device needs to be newly configured.
The menu item Save config. serves to save the ex­isting parameters in a protected memory area. This is helpful if the settings of a functional device needs to be optimised. Save config. and Load config. can be used to quickly restore the initial status again.

6 Maintenance

The instrument is maintenance-free.
The user menu can be switched to German, English, French, Spanish or Italian using the parameter Language.
The menu items Software - Info and Config - Info provide information about the device. This infor­mation helps to answer questions about the device quickly.
The device type, controller ID and the firmware ver­sion is shown in the software info.
The basic measuring range, the defined output sig­nal and existing contacts are stated in the Config In­fo.
The Statistics provide information about the oper­ating time and the relay switching cycles from the time of delivery. The operating time is shown in days (d) and hours (h)
In the menu item Password the menu can be pro­tected with a password to prevent unauthorised changes. The password is a figure from 1 to 999. The input 0 means that no password is active.
The password needs to be set if the user presses the button in normal mode to enter the menu. If a wrong password is entered, the system automati­cally jumps back to normal mode again. If no pass­word is active, the display immediately jumps to the menu.
We recommend the following regular inspection to guarantee reliable operation and a long service life:
Check the reading.
Check the function in combination with down-
stream components.
Check the leak-tightness of the pressure con-
nection lines.
Check the electrical connections. The exact test cycles need to be adapted to the op-
erating and environmental conditions. If various in­strument components interact, the operating in­structions of all the other instruments also need to be observed.

7 Transportation

The measuring device must be protected against impacts. It may only be transported in packaging specifically intended for transport.

8 Service

All defective or faulty devices should be sent directly to our repair department. Please coordinate all shipments with our sales department.
Process media residues in and on dismantled de­vices can be a hazard to people, animals and the environment. Take adequate preventive measures. If required, the devices must be cleaned thoroughly.

0.0 ... 0.0 … 100.0 s (jump response time 10 / 90 %) for signal output; separately also for display Switch-off point, switch-on point, response time (0 ... 100 s); function (NO contact /NC contact) mbar / Pa / "free unit", starting value, end value and decimal point for "free unit" 0 ... 1/3 of the basic measuring range (1) User-definable within the basic measuring range ± 1/3 of the basic measuring range (3) linear, square rooted, table with 3...30 support points 001 ... 999 (000 = no password protection)
Comments: (1) Measuring values (around zero) were set to zero. (e.g. to suppress seepage). (2): Maximum effective spread 4:1. Only the output signal is influenced.
This in turn enables a decreasing characteristic curve, if the start of the measuring range > end of the measuring range.
(3): Zero point correction for compensation of various installation positions.
