SPECTORcontrol is a visual display and operating panel with integrated programmable
logic controller (PLC).
Apart from GESTRA equipment such as level electrodes, capacitance probes,
temperature limiters and conductivity electrodes, you can also connect equipment
produced by other manufacturers (after consultation with GESTR A) and incorporate it
into the system.
Wa rn in g
The parameters of the high-level and low-level alarm electrodes required by
law can be indicated and monitored.
Note that SPECTORcontrol cannot replace the control units of legally
prescribe d limiters such as low-level alarms, high-level alarms and selfmonitoring temperature limiters.
Such usage is considered as impr oper!
Data can be exchanged safely with equipment tested and approv ed by GESTRA.
Any type of use differing from the usage described a bove must be considered as
improper. The resulting risk will have to be borne by the user alone. The manu facturer
hereby expressly r ejects any claims for any damage resulting from improper usage.

Function
SPECTORcontrol is an operating, indicating and automating device for boiler
management.
The sensors and SPECTORcontrol use the CANopen protocol. At regular intervals the
CANopen devices send data telegrams via CAN bus. The data transfer is in accordance
with ISO 11898.
All transferred process data are continuously received and evaluated by
SPECTORcontrol. If a connected CANopen device interrupts the data transmitting cycle,
an al arm message i s given and a visual signal is indicated by the displ a y.
To establish and monitor the available parameters of CANopen devices you can either
use the operating panel or a PC or handheld.
The configuration is menu driven. Make sure that you only enter correct parameters,
since the CANopen devices do not perform checks regarding consistency and range of
values.
SPECTORcontrol saves the adjusted parameters and received data.
The integrated PLC (programmable logic controller) enables the use of control functions
and di fferent softw are controllers as well as the incorporation of alarm values.

Commissioning
Technical requirements
All compo nents to be monitored must be connected and operating.
The visual display & operating panel must be provided with a CompactFlash™ card and
the power supply must be switched on.
Start-up behaviour
To commission the display & operating panel switch on the power supply. First a system
test is carried out. Then the hardware is checked.
After that the user program is automatically loaded from the CompactFlash™ and the start
menu is displayed (duration: approx. 4 min.).
Note
Any fault occuring during start-up will be indicated.
Shutdown behaviour
A short power supply failure of up to 10ms will be buffered by the power supply unit. In
the event of a longer power failure you have to reset SPECTORcontrol in order to restore
the power supply.
Factory settings
The graphical screen masks are configured by GESTRA. All adjustable masks are
completely available, no matter whether the indicated instruments are part of the bus
system or not. Subsequent expansion or modification is therefore possible at any time.
The scope of the adjusted values and hence the degree of preadjustments depends
whether a pre-configured OEM version is used or whether SPECTORcontrol will be
connected to an existing bus system and therefore the configuration of the system must
be completely new.
If a pre-configured OEM version is used, the individual components with the adjusted
parameters are stored on the CompactFlash™ card.
11

Remote monitoring
SPECTORcontrol allows remote monitoring and operation via P C. For this purpose a
browser (Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher) must be installed as frontend. You can also use
a handheld PC.
There are two ways to establish a connection:
1.A direct connection to the network/Intranet can be implemented via the integrated
Ethernet interface using a patch cable (RJ45).
Or, alternati vely, the connection can be established via Hub/switch.
2.An analog modem can be connected to the serial interface CO M3 (RS232). In this
case the connection will be directly established, e. g. via In ternet.
The following device has been tried and tested by GESTRA:
■ devolo-Microlink 56k Fun II serial
The IP address of SPECTORcontrol can be obtained from your system or network
admi nistrator. The IP address must be uniquely defined in the network.
Integration of third-party equipment
Third-party equipment such as Profibus and MODBus can - after prior consultation with
GESTRA - be directly connected to SPECTORcontrol.

Sequence of set-up
Before starting the set-up procedure, make sure that all devices are interconnected via
CAN bus . The CANopen protocol is used for the data exchange between the equipment
groups.
To be able to access the CANopen equipment of the plant you must first check and, if
necessary, modify the basic settings.
Pre-configured installa tions will be completely parameterized by GESTRA. The data are
stored on the CompactFlash™ card. Modifications are therefore not necessary.
For a subsequent installation or expansion of SPECTORcontrol follow the configuration
step s described below.
Note
Any modification of t he basic settings has a direct effect on the boiler
monitoring system and the operating functions .
We recommend the following configuration sequence:
1.Check/configure system settings
2.Check/configure connected CANopen equipment
3.Check/configure connected analog equipment (I/O module)
4.Check/configure connected digital equipment (I/O modul e)
5.Check/configure connected controller
6.Check/configure boiler parameter settings
7.Check/configure burner parameter settings
8.After finishing the configuration restart the system.
(Only applicable if settings of CANopen equipment - cf. item 2 - were modified)
Note
SPECTORcontrol does not have an own on/off switch. To turn the equipment
on/off, switch on/off the power supply in the control cabinet or connect/strip
off the plug-in connection of the equipment.
