1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OF THE F090-A-PL
Functions and features
The general purpose indicator model F090-A-PL is a loop powered microprocessor driven
instrument designed to display the actual value, like level, temperature, flow, pressure etc.
This product has been designed with a focus on:
ultra-low power consumption to allow loop powered applications (type PL,
intrinsic safety for use in hazardous applications (type XI),
several mounting possibilities with GRP or aluminum enclosures for industrial surroundings,
Sensor input
This manual describes the unit with an analog 4-20mA input type
One sensor with an active 4-20mA signal output can be connected to the F090-A-PL.
The F090-A-PL is powered from the loop (sensor signal) and does not require any additional
external power supply.
Overview typical application F090-A-PL - loop powered indicator

Configuration of the unit
The F090-A-PL has been designed to be implemented in many types of applications. For that
reason, a SETUP-level is available to configure your F090-A-PL according to your specific
requirements.
It includes several important features, such as Span, measurement units, display options etc. All
setting are stored in EEPROM memory and will not be lost in the event of power failure.
Display information
The unit has a large transflective LCD with all kinds of symbols and digits to display measuring units,
status information and key-word messages.
The actual values is displayed with the large 26mm (1”) digits while the smaller 8mm (0.31”) digits
display the measuring unit and messages.
The Piegraph is percentage-wise related to the span.
Options
The following options are available: intrinsic safety, panel-mount, wall-mount and weather-proof
enclosures, flame proof enclosure and LED backlight.

HF090APLEN_v040101_02.doc
2.3. OPERATOR INFORMATION AND FUNCTIONS
In general, the F090-A-PL will always act at Operator level.
Fig. 3: Example of display information during process.
For the Operator, the following functions are available (if activated):
Display value and measuring unit
This is the main display information of the F090-A-PL. After selecting any other information, it
will always return to this main display automatically.
Display actual mA value (if activated)
After pressing SELECT, the actual input current (mA) will be displayed.
Display 0% / 100% (if activated)
After pressing SELECT a few times, the 0% value (=4mA) and 100% value (=20mA) will be
displayed.
Under range / over range
If the input current is in-between 3.5mA and 3.75mA “-------“ will be displayed.
If the input current is in-between 3.75mA and 4mA the value corresponding to 4mA will be
displayed.
If the input current is in-between 20 mA and 22mA the value will be extrapolated.
If the input current is above 22mA the value “99999” will be displayed.

3. CONFIGURATION
3.1. INTRODUCTION
This and the following chapters are exclusively meant for electricians and non-operators. In these,
an extensive description of all software settings and hardware connections are provided.
Mounting, electrical installation, start-up and maintenance of the instrument may only
be carried out by trained personnel authorised by the operator of the facility. Personnel
must read and understand this Operating Manual before carrying out its instructions.
The F090-A-PL may only be operated by personnel who are authorised and trained by
the operator of the facility. All instructions in this manual are to be observed.
Ensure that the measuring system is correctly wired up according to the wiring
diagrams. The housing may only be opened by trained personnel.
Take careful notice of the " Safety rules, instructions and precautionary measures " in
the front of this manual.
3.2. PROGRAMMING SETUP-LEVEL
3.2.1. GENERAL
Configuration of the F090-A-PL is done at SETUP-level. SETUP-level is reached by pressing the
PROG/ENTER key for 7 seconds; at which time, both arrows v will be displayed. In order to return
to the operator level, PROG will have to be pressed for three seconds. Alternatively, if no keys are
pressed for 2 minutes, the unit will exit SETUP automatically.
SETUP can be reached at all times while the F090-A-PL remains fully operational.
Note: A pass code may be required to enter SETUP. Without this pass code access to SETUP is
denied.
To enter SETUP-level:

SCROLLING THROUGH SETUP-LEVEL
Selection of function-group and function:
SETUP is divided into several function groups and functions.
Each function has a unique number, which is displayed below the word "SETUP" at the bottom of
the display. The number is a combination of two figures. The first figure indicates the function-group
and the second figure the sub-function. Additionally, each function is expressed with a keyword.
After selecting a sub-function, the next main function is selected by scrolling through all "active" subfunctions (e.g. 1t, 11t, 12t, 13t, 14t, 14, 24, 3t, 31 etc.).
