INSTRUCTION MANUAL
1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Product Overview
The 53SL5100 Controller is capable of functioning as any one of four selectable application-specific
instruments. The instrument application is selected with the front panel push buttons by entering the
appropriate number (1 through 4 respectively) into a designated database location. The four instrument
selections are:
1. Single Loop (PID) Controller - a PID controller that fulfills the requirements of a majority of process
applications. It is used with other devices in a standard feedback control loop to automatically control
a process variable (PV) at a predetermined setpoint (SP). The proportional, integral, and derivative
(PID) terms can be activated as needed.
2. Analog Backup Controller - for operations requiring computer backup. It is used where a remote
computer is normally controlling the final element directly. In this configuration, the controller acts as a
control signal selector and as an automatic backup to the computer. The controller continually adjusts
its output to match the feedback signal from the final element so that transfer to on-line operation is
bumpless.
3. Ratio (PID) Controller - for applications where one variable must automatically be maintained in
definite proportion to another variable. The PID algorithm is executed to maintain a controlled line at a
predetermined proportion to the uncontrolled or wild line.
4. Automatic/Manual Station - for installations requiring a single station automatic/manual selector. In
Auto, the Auto input is passed directly through the station to the output. In Manual, the station acts as
a manual loader for direct operator control of the process.
Each of the four instrument selections has its own unique display of process attributes (e.g., process variable,
output, etc.) as well as a supplemental parameter display that is invoked by pressing a front panel push
button. The parameter display provides quick access to view and/or alter three values such as % Proportional
Band, Reset (integral action), and Rate (derivative action). The instrument is configured at the factory to
display these three values, but the parameter display selections can be altered.

2 INSTALLATION
2.1 Inspection
A list of all items in the shipment is attached to the shipping container. Inspect the equipment upon arrival for
damage that may have occurred during shipment. All damage claims should be reported to the responsible
shipping agent before installation is attempted. If damage is such that faulty operation is likely to result, the
MicroMod Customer Service Department should be notified.
Inspect the packing material before discarding it as a precaution to prevent loosing mounting hardware or
special instructions that may have been included with the shipment. Normal care in the handling and
installation of this equipment will contribute toward its satisfactory performance.
2.2 Location
The 53SL5100 is supplied with an enclosure designed specifically for indoor mounting. The installation site
selected should be dry, well lighted, and vibration free. The ambient temperature should be stable and
maintained within the specified minimum and maximum temperature limits listed in the Section 1,
specifications of this Instruction Bulletin.
The instrument can be supplied for use with a 24 V dc supply or 120, 220 and 240 V ac line service.
Instrument power requirements are given on the instrument data tag.
2.3 Mounting
2.3.1 General
It is normally not necessary to open the instrument case during installation. If the instrument must be removed
from the case, refer to Section 5 for details. Incorrect procedures may damage the instrument.
The instrument can be flush panel mounted, either as a single unit or side by side. Appropriate mounting
hardware is supplied. Outline dimensions and panel cut-out requirements for case mounting are shown in
Figure 2-1.
The dimensions given for spacing between instruments were selected on the basis of 1/8" thick panel
strength. Panel strength must be considered when multiple case mounting is required. As the panel cut-out
becomes longer it may be necessary to install supporting members. Because the panel area between
instrument rows becomes weaker as the cut-out becomes longer to the point where the panel offers very little
support. It is recommended that the 9 inch minimum center line dimension between horizontally mounted
rows be increased as the number of units increases, or that the panel strip be stiffened.
The rear of the instrument case must be supported to prevent panel distortion. Mount an angle iron or similar
member along the bottom of the cases as indicated in Figure 2-2. If the panel is to be moved the instrument
cases must be tied down to prevent damage.
If multiple mounted instruments are installed in a panel that tilts back, it may be necessary to support the
instruments so the panel does not sag. The downward weight should be supported by additional panel
supports and/or by increasing panel thickness.

INSTRUCTION MANUAL
2.3.2 Mounting Procedure
For single and multiple case mounting the instruments are furnished with a trim collar (mounting frame).
Figure 2-2 illustrates the installation and use of the trim collar (mounting frame). Trim collars (mounting
frames) are available in various sizes and are supplied to conform with the particular panel cut-out.
NOTE: Mounting brackets and trim collars (mounting frames) are packaged separately. Check the
shipment carefully to prevent loss of mounting hardware.
To install single or multiple mounted instruments in a prepared panel cut-out, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the through-case shipping bolt.
2. Slip the trim collar (mounting frame) over the rear of the case and slide it forward to the front of the
case.
3. Slide the instrument case through the panel opening.
a. Single mounting case - support the weight of the case and attach the top and bottom
mounting brackets. Tighten the bracket screws.
b. Multiple mounted cases - spacer bars and self-adhesive pads must be used between the
cases, as shown in Figure 2-3. Start the installation from the right (when facing the panel),
installing the spacers as each case is added. Also, as each case is positioned in place, install
and tighten the top and bottom mounting brackets. Each case must be tight against the
previous case.
NOTE: Spacers are not required on the outside of the right and left cases.

2.4 Power & Signal Wiring
PREPARATORY: The 53SL5100 can be configured for one to four analog inputs (ANI0-3), one analog output
(ANO0), two control contact inputs (CCI0 and 1), two control contact outputs (CCO0 and 1) and Datalink
network interconnectivity. Therefore, prior to making electrical connections, the particular instrument
configuration should be determined with all assigned inputs and outputs identified to assure proper signal
routing.
Provisions for electrical interconnections are located at the rear of the instrument case. Under ideal conditions
shielded cable may not be required. In noisy locations all system input, output and power wiring should be
enclosed in electrical conduit. System interconnection cables (except for power cables) should be fabricated
from 2-wire shielded signal cable. Signal transmission distance should not exceed the limit specified for the
particular transmitter (refer to applicable technical literature provided for the respective device). Polarity must
be observed when connecting the remote transmitters to the instrument.
The instrument has a vertically mounted terminal strip (TB1) for signal interconnections and a horizontally
mounted terminal strip (TB2) for power wiring. Both terminal strips are located at the rear terminal board of
the instrument case.
SNAP-OUT TERMINAL CONNECTORS
Both terminal strips, TB1 and TB2, have removable plug-in connectors. The upper connector for TB1 has
screw lugs 1 through 12 and the lower connector has screw lugs 13 through 22. All of the screw lugs are on a
single connector for TB2. To remove a signal connector, grasp it securely on both sides with the thumb and
forefinger, rock it gently from top to bottom (not side to side) and pull it straight out. To remove the power
connector, grasp the sides firmly with the thumb and forefinger, rock it gently from side to side and pull
straight out.
NOTE: The screw lugs on the back of the instrument are designed for 12 – 24 AWG wire. It is
important that the wire be stripped to expose 1/2 inch of conductor before installation.
WARNING! Instruments that are powered from an ac line service constitute a potential
electric shock hazard to the user. Make certain that these system ac power lines are
disconnected from the operating branch circuit before attempting electrical interconnections.

2.4.1 Power Wiring
Refer to the instrument model number to verify the power input requirements:
53SL511…. – AC Power
53SL512…. – DC Power
2.4.1.1 DC Power
Reference Figure 2-4 and connect the remote 24 V dc power supply to the instrument as follows:
1.
Connect (+) input line, via remote SPST switch, to terminal L1.
2. Connect (-) input line to the system bus bar. The bus bar should be connected to a good earth ground
(#8 AWG wire is recommended). Individual wires should be run from the controller Power Common
(PC ) and Signal Common (SC ) terminals to the bus bar. The chassis should be grounded by
connecting terminal G to earth ground.
NOTE: Use of a common bus bar is recommended to minimize potential
voltage differences that may occur as the result of ground current loops, e.g.,
potential difference between separate signal grounds, power grounds, etc.
2.4.1.2 AC Power
Reference Figure 2-4 and connect the specified line service (110-120, 220-240 V ac, 50 or 60 Hz) to the
trument as follows:
ins
1. Connect the phase or hot line L, via a remote power disconnect switch or circuit breaker, to terminal
L1.
2. Connect the neutral line N to terminal L2 for 110-120 V ac. Connect the neutral line N to terminal L3
for 220-240 V ac.
3. Connect Power Common to a good earth ground (#12 AWG wire is recommended). The instrument
case should be grounded by connecting terminal G to earth ground at the source of supply
(green/green-yellow ground).
All supply connections include surge protection rated at 275 V ac normal mode.
NOTE: To minimize possible interference, ac power wiring should be routed away from signal
wiring.
2.4.2 Field Signal Wiring
2.4.2.1 Current/Voltage Input to AIN0 and AIN1
When the input signal is from a 4-20 mA current transmitter, a precision 250 ohms (+/-0.1%) resistor is
required. (The resistor tolerance is critical, as the resistor is used to accurately convert the current signal from
the transmitter, which is typically 4-20 mA, to a specified analog input voltage of 1 to 5 V dc). The back of the
rear terminal board has the appropriate resistors (R1 and R2, respectively) for ANI0 and ANI1.
2.4.2.2 Contact Input to CCI0
Separate contact input signals to CCI0 and CCI1 can be used for alarm inputs. One side of each
remote contact must be connected to power common as illustrated in Figure 2-4. Minimum opened
or closed recognition time for a remote contact must be 0.05 seconds.
2.4.2.3 Current Output from ANO0
A current output signal is available for re-transmission of one of the input signals ANI0 through
ANI3. Observe the proper polarity when connecting the output to another instrument.
2.4.2.4 Contact Output CCO0
Discrete contact output CCO0 is identified in Figure 2-4. Each discrete output is a solid state switch with a
rating of 30 V dc, 50 mA maximum. A CCO is referenced to power common. When this contact is connected
to an inductive load, an external arc suppression network is required for contact protection.
12
53SL5100B Single-Loop Controller
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
2.4.3 Datalink Communication
Datalink is an interrogator/responder serial interface capable of supporting 32 instruments on a single
network. It uses an RS485 physical interface. The Datalink wiring diagram for this instrument is provided as
Figure 2-5. Complete coverage of the Datalink is provided in Instruction Bulletin 53SU5000.
2.5 Factory Set Calibration
Each unit contains individual factory set entries that calibrate the four analog inputs (ANI0 through ANI3) and
analog output (ANO0). There is a calibration sheet supplied with each instrument that should be retained for
future reference when the installation is completed. Reference Section 5.3 for additional information.
2.6 Grounding
Installations are expected to have access to an independent, high quality, noise-free point of earth reference.
The system should be connected by a dedicated, low resistance (less than one ohm) lead wire directly to the
installation’s point of earth reference. This ground reference is referred to as the Instrumentation Ground. If
an instrumentation ground reference does not exist in the installation, an earth ground electrode should be
established with an independent grounding rod or ground grid mesh.

3 FRONT PANEL
The front panel of the instrument contains the display and all push buttons used to change display
presentations and parameters. The front panel has a gas discharge 96 X 48 dot matrix display, a six
pushbutton vertical keypad, and a four pushbutton horizontal keypad. It also has a configuration port DIN
plug, which is concealed behind the identification tag pull-down door. To open this door, press on the lower
front edge. Front panel display information is presented as bar graphs with associated alphanumerics or as
alphanumeric only. (See Figure 3-1.)
Figure 3-1. Front Panel
3.1 Display
The bar graph display is a visual indication of the process events monitored and subsequently altered either
by the instrument or other device. This instrument provides three unique bar graph displays and one
alphanumeric parameter display. Bar graph response dynamics as well as the alphanumerics on all of the
display types are selected when the instrument is configured.
There are four configurable operating modes, called control strategies (CS1-4). The control strategies are:
CS1, Single Loop PID Controller
CS2, Analog Backup Controller
CS3, Ratio Controller
CS4, Automatic/Manual Station
Two of the control strategies, CS1 and CS2, have identical bar graph presentations; that is why there are
three, rather than four, unique bar graph types. Each control strategy (CS1 - CS4) also has a pushbutton
selectable parameter display. Although the contents of the parameter display are selectable configuration
items, the display format is identical for each of the four control strategies.
Any display type can have a portion of its contents overlaid with an ALARM indicator. If the instrument is
manually set to engineering mode, the display can be overlaid with the CONFIGURATION or DISPLAY data
entry line. Alarm indicators warn of variation changes that exceed tolerance limits; the process may require
immediate attention. The engineering mode (EMODE) overlay provides a single entry line for data display and
alteration.

3.2 Front Panel Pushbuttons
The front panel pushbuttons are used to vary the display presentation, to select instrument operator or
engineering modes, and to select local or remote setpoint levels. In engineering mode, (EMODE) they are
also used to display and/or alter database parameters which are presented as single line datapoints in the
configuration overlay.
Pushbutton operator mode functions differ slightly with each control strategy implemented; however, the
engineering mode pushbutton functions are identical for all four control strategies. General pushbutton
functions are illustrated in Figure 3-8 below and defined in Table 3-1 on the facing page. The summary table
in Figure 3-8 shows the functional differences of the push buttons by control strategy. These differences are
included as part of the push button descriptions provided in each individual control strategy section of the
book.

3.3 Displaying a Datapoint
The following procedure illustrates how to enter Engineering Mode (EMODE) and use the display function to
access the contents of datapoint A001 (A1). The displayed contents will be PERCENT. Figure 3-9 and Figure
3-10 are supporting illustrations for the display procedure which is described in Table 3-2. It should be noted
that EMODE has a 20 second timeout if it is accessed and its functions (e.g., configure or display) are not
used.

3.4 Altering a Datapoint
The following procedure illustrates how to enter EMODE and use the configuration function to alter the
contents of datapoint B000 (B0) with a 97. Entering a 97 in B00 invokes the display test which strobes the
display matrix dots on and off at 5 second intervals (approximate). When off, a perimeter of dots still remains
lit. Figures 3-11 and 3-12 are display test illustrations that support the procedure provided in Table 3-3. It
should be noted that EMODE has a 20 second timeout if it is accessed and its functions (e.g., configure or
display) are not used.

3.5 Defaulting the Database
Defaulting the database sets all non-instrument-specific datapoint parameters to predetermined values, then
suspends the instrument which is indicated by the logo presented on the display. When instrument operation
is suspended, instrument algorithmic control ceases.
The procedure to default the database is presented in Table 3-4 and the display logo is illustrated in Figure 3-
13. Entering a 98 in datapoint B00 defaults the database. If it is desired to suspend instrument operation
without defaulting the database, enter a 00 in lieu of a 98 into B00. The defaulted database values are
provided in the configuration tables of Section 4 and the database tables in Appendix C, Database, under the
column headed Default. Those parameter values that are left unaltered when the database is defaulted are
identified with gray-tone shading in the Default column of the tables. It should be noted that EMODE has a 20
second timeout if it is accessed and its functions (e.g., configure or display) are not used.
