4. PRODUCT OVERVIEW
LTE Series transmitters duplicate the signal conditioning and signal processing features of their 1/8 DIN panel-mounted digital panel meter counterparts for exceptional accuracy at high read rates. A wide range of analog signal sources are accommodated by five analog signal conditioners, which are the same as for our panel meters:
DC input for volts, amps, process signals (e.g., 4-20 mA), and strain gauges. Most sensitive
full scale input range of 200 mV. Built-in 5A current shunt.
AC rms input for volts and amps. Can be AC or DC coupled. Built-in 5A current shunt.
Load cell or microvolt input with selectable full scale input ranges from 20 mV to 500 mV.
Thermocouple temperature input for seven thermocouple types.
RTD temperature or Ohms input for Pt100, Ni120 or Cu10 RTDs, or 20-200 k resistance.
An isolated 4-20 mA, 0-20 mA or 0-10V output is standard.
This output is generated by an
ultra-
linear 16-bit digital to analog converter which tracks an internal linearized digital reading.
Isolated Ethernet communications are standard via an RJ45 connector for a 10/100BaseT interface. Four serial communication protocols are understood by our transmitters: Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU, Modbus ASCII, and Custom ASCII (a simpler protocol than Modbus).
An isolated transducer excitation output is standard. Three output levels are jumper selectable: 5V at 100 mA, 10V at 120 mA, or 24V at 50 mA. The factory default setting is 10V and can power up to four 350 ohm load cells in parallel.
Two isolated solid state relays are standard. These are rated 120 mA at 140 Vac or 180 Vdc.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) operation is jumper selectable with the DC power option (10-48 Vdc).
Isolation to 250V rms is provided for power, signal input, analog output, relay outputs, and com-
munications. Isolation adds safety and avoids possible ground loops. The transducer excitation output is isolated to ±50V from signal ground.
Internal jumpers are used to select the signal range and excitation level. The transmitter configuration is specified by the model number on the transmitter label. A user can reconfigure the transmitter by opening the case and moving jumpers.
Transmitter scaling is via serial connection to a PC using MS Windows based Instrument Setup Software, which can be downloaded at no charge.

8. PROGRAMMING YOUR TRANSMITTER
OVERVIEW
LTE transmitters are easily programmed by connecting them to the same LAN as a PC or by connecting them directly to a PC with an Ethernet cable, and then running Instrument Setup Software on the PC. This MS Windows based software allows Node and Device discovery, uploading, editing, downloading and saving of setup data, execution of commands under computer control, listing, plotting and graphing of data, and computer prompted calibration.

If a browser is to access our Nodes on a remote LAN over the Internet, port forwarding must first be set up for the router that controls the remote LAN. The default port numbers pro­grammed into our Nodes are UDP port 63179 for Node discovery and TCP port 502 for Modbus TCP. If these ports are blocked by the router or by a firewall, different port values can be entered into our Nodes. You or your company’s IT department will then also need to set up the remote router to forward these different port values.

9. OPENING YOUR TRANSMITTER CASE
WHEN TO CHANGE JUMPERS
Most users will never have the need to open the transmitter case. Our transmitters are
shipped fully jumpered and ready for scaling. The signal conditioner type, range and temper­ature sensor are specified by the model number on the transmitter label.
To select a different signal conditioner range, you may open the transmitter case and change jumper settings. Your selected range should encompass your maximum expected signal levels. All ranges of each signal conditioner board are factory calibrated, with calibration factors stored in EPROM on the board.
The selection of excitation level (5V, 10V or 15V) is achieved by jumpers on the main board. The factory default setting is 10V.
After changing jumper settings, you will need to enter the new information into Instrument Setup software. While this software can sense the instrument type (transmitter, panel meter or counter) and signal conditioner type, it cannot sense jumper settings which modify the electrical circuit. You should also update the information on your transmitter label.
HOW TO OPEN & CLOSE THE CASE
The two clamshell halves of the case are held together with 4 bolts and 4 nuts. The nuts are not retained, so be careful that they are not lost. Separate the case halves. When closing the case, make sure that the ventilation grates are properly aligned.

The standard RTD and resistance signal conditioner board can be configured via jumpers for four RTD types (DIN 100 platinum, ANSI 100 platinum, 120 nickel, 10 copper) or five resistance ranges (from 20.000 to 200.00 k). A fixed 2 M resistance range (R6 ordering option) is provided by a factory modified signal conditioner board with component changes.
All ranges are factory calibrated with calibration factors stored in EEPROM on the signal condi­tioner board. Instrument Setup Software recognizes the board and will bring up the appropriate menu items for it; however, it does not recognize the jumper settings. With RTDs, display in °C or °F and resolution of 1°, 0.1° or 0.01° are user programmable.

PROVISIONS FOR LEAD WIRE RESISTANCE
RTD and resistance measurement allow 2-, 3- or 4-wire hookup to compensate for lead wire
resistance. Please see Section 6 for hookup diagrams.
In 2-wire hookup, the transmitter senses the voltage drop across the load and both lead
wires. The effect of the lead wires can be measured and subtracted by shorting out the load during transmitter setup, as prompted by Instrument Setup software. The short should be as close as possible to the load. Ambient temperature changes will still cause some error in the readings -- the higher the lead resistance, the greater the error.
In 3-wire hookup, the transmitter automatically compensates for lead resistance by mea-
suring the voltage drop in one current-carrying lead and assuming that the voltage drop in the other current-carrying lead is the same.
In 4-wire hookup, there is no lead wire resistance error, as different pairs of wires are used
for excitation and sensing. The sense wires only carry a few picoamperes and hence can measure the voltage across the RTD without error.

15. DUAL RELAY OPERATION
Dual solid state relays are standard and can operate in a basic alarm mode, in a hysteresis band mode, or in a deviation band mode. Setpoint operation is referenced to the digital reading in engineering units that is internal to the transmitter.

In basic alarm, the relay changes state automatically when the reading rises above a limit, and changes back automatically when the reading falls below that limit. A red LED indicates that the relay is in an alarm condition. The alarm can be programmed to be active high or active low.

Hysteresis Band Alarm Deviation Band Alarm
In hysteresis band alarm, the relay closes (or opens) when the reading goes above the setpoint plus one hysteresis value, and opens (or closes) when the reading falls below the setpoint less one hysteresis value. A narrow hysteresis band is often used to minimize relay chatter. A wide hysteresis band can be used for on-off control.
In deviation band alarm, the relay actuates when the reading falls within the deviation band, and de-actuates when the reading falls outside. A deviation value (such as 50 counts) is set up on both sides of the setpoint. Passbands are often used for component testing.

16. INPUT SIGNAL FILTERING
A moving average filter is selectable in software to process the internal digital readings, which are taken at 60/sec with 60 Hz power and 50/sec with 50 Hz power. Eight settings are selectable with t equivalent RC time constants from 0.08 sec to 9.6 sec. The longer time constants provide superior noise filtering at the expense of fast response time.
Adaptive moving average filtering allows the transmitter to respond rapidly to actual changes in signal while filtering out normal noise. An adaptive filter threshold causes the moving average filter to be reset to the latest reading when the accumulated difference between individual readings and the filtered reading exceeds that threshold. The accumulated difference is also reset to zero when the latest reading has a different polarity than the filtered reading. The adaptive filter threshold can be selected as low or high. Low is normally selected. High should be selected if the signal has large transients.
17. TRANSMITTER CALIBRATION
All input ranges are calibrated at the factory using NIST certified calibration equipment, and the calibration constants are stored digitally in EEPROM on the signal conditioner board. This allows signal ranges and signal conditioner boards to be changed without recalibration. Calibration constants for analog outputs are stored in EEPROM on the main board.
If recalibration is required, a transmitter may be returned to the factory or to an authorized distributor. Easy calibration of DC, AC and load cell signal conditioner ranges is also possible with Instrument Setup software, as described in Section 7. Advanced calibration software is available from the factory.
18. CUSTOM CURVE LINEARIZATION
Curve.exe is a DOS-based, executable PC program used to set up an Extended transmitter so that the internal digital readings have a user-defined, non-linear relationship with the input signal. For example, it allows a transmitter to correct for transducer nonlinearity. Calculated linearizing parameters are downloaded from a PC into non-volatile memory of the transmitter. The curve-fitting algorithm uses quadratic segments of varying length and curvature, and includes diagnostics to estimate curve fitting errors. The program is self-prompting, avoiding the need for detailed printed instructions.
To get started, download curve.exe from our website into the directory that will also contain your data files, such as c:\curves. Connect your transmitter to the PC and double-click on curve.exe, which is an executable file. Follow the computer prompts and extensive help information. Pressing R (Enter) returns to the main menu. You will be given the choice of four data entry modes, which are explained in detail.

The Custom ASCII protocol is simpler than the Modbus protocol. This 5-page manual section provides some of its key programmable features. Our detailed Serial Communications manual can be downloaded from http://www.laurels.com/downloadfiles/serialcom2.pdf
2.0 MEASUREMENT DATA FORMAT
The basic measurement data format consists of 8 ASCII characters for analog input “DPM” transmitters, such as +999.99<CR>, where <CR> is the carriage return character. The first character is always a plus or minus sign. A decimal point is always furnished, even when it follows the last digit.
Adding a Line Feed Character to the Basic Format: Printers and other devices that receive the data may require a line feed character <LF> following the <CR>. The line feed character <LF> may be selected using Instrument Setup software.
Adding a Coded Data Character to the Basic Format: A coded character from A to H may be added to the data string according to the table below to indicate the alarm and overload status of the device. If used, this character precedes the <CR>, so that it is the last printable character in the string. With the optional <LF> and coded character selected, the data string will consist of 10 characters for analog input “DPM” transmitters, such as +999.99A<CR><LF>.
Alarm Status No Overload Overload
**Neither Alarm set Alarm 1 set only Alarm 2 set only
A B C
D
E
F G H
Both Alarms set
For example, a coded character “G” indicates that Alarm 2 only is set and that the transmitter is in the overload condition. This information is useful when data is supplied to a computer for
- 31 -
listing and analysis, or when data is supplied to a Remote Display in a Master-Slave confi­guration.
Values are transmitted in a continuous string with no intervening spaces. If the 5th digit in is set to 1 using Instrument Setup software, the termination characters of <CR> and optional <LF> appear after each value. If the 5th digit is et to 0, the termination characters appear only once at the end of the string. In either case, if included, the coded character appears at the end of the last value only.
3.0 NETWORK CONFIGURATIONS
Using the Custom ASCII protocol, TM Series transmitters can operate in a point-to-point mode using RS232 or RS485, or in a multi-point mode using RS485.
The point-to-point mode is a direct connection between a computer (or other digital device) and the transmitter. Any device address can be selected; however, it is suggested that address 1 be selected as a standard for the point-to-point mode.
The multi-point mode is a connection from a host computer to a multiplicity of transmitters bused together with their inputs and outputs connected in parallel. For long cable runs, the last device should have a termination resistor installed. It is necessary to set up each device on the bus with a different address from 1 to 31. To command a particular device, its address is used in conjunction with the command, and only that device responds. The outputs of all of the devices on the bus are set to a high impedance state, except the device being addressed. The device addresses range from 1 to 31, with 0 being a special address to which a meter responds only internally (e.g. Reset), but does not transmit any response on the output lines. All devices may be commanded simultaneously with a 0 address, and there will not be any output response contention. Addressing of transmitters can be set with Instrument Setup software.
4.0 COMMAND MODE OVERVIEW
Using the Custom ASCII protocol, TM Series transmitters operate in the Command Mode only. In this mode, the device does not send data automatically, but responds to commands received from a host computer. These commands can be:
• To transmit the latest or peak measurement
• To reset the meter completely or just the peak value and/or latched alarms
• To display a value sent from the computer
• To transmit present setup parameters
• To receive new setup parameters,
• To monitor or alter data in selected memory locations of the meter.
5.0 COMMAND MODE FORMAT
