Thank you for selecting the 532
Auto/Manual Backup Station.
It is the most sophisticated instrument in its class, and will provide
you with years of reliable, troublefree performance.
532 Auto/Manual Backup Station
The 532 has been engineered to be the industry’s most user friendly and
comprehensive Auto/Manual Backup Station. The 532 provides automatic
and manual control backup for critical control loops. In Auto or Remote mode,
the control signal passes from the Host device through the 532 without any
degradation. A Host device may be a PLC, DCS or process controller. The 532
switches to Local mode upon keypad selection, digital input or loss of the
Host signal. The 532 generates a control signal based on a predetermined
control value (CV), or the last known CV from the Host. The operator can
modify the CV with the and keys. The 532 will transfer to Remote mode
upon keypad selection, opening of the digital input or return of the Host signal.
Removal of the 532 from its case or powering down while in Remote mode will
not disturb the Host signal; the 532 is not a point of failure!

Operation
NOTE:
Powering down the controller
acknowledges/clears all latched
alarms. When powering up, all alarms
will be reset according to their powerup configuration (see Chapter 6).
NOTE:
All alarms are internal alarms unless tied
to an output relay in the Set Up mode.
532 Alarm Operation
IMPORTANT NOTICE!
Alarms can be used to provide warnings of unsafe conditions.
Therefore, all 532 operators must know how the alarms are configured, how to react to alarm conditions, and the consequences of
acknowledging (noting and clearing) an alarm.
Alarm Indication
The 532 indicates alarms by:
•Lighting icons
•Displaying messages; and
•Lighting the ACK key, if an alarm is in an acknowledgeable state.
Alarm Acknowledgment
An alarm is acknowledgeable only when the ACK key is illuminated. To
acknowledge an alarm:
1. Press the ACK key to acknowledge Alarm 1. This clears the alarm and
releases the relay (if applicable).
2. Both the icon and message indicators disappear, and the relay (if applicable)
changes state.
3. If a second alarm is active and acknowledgeable, press the ACK key again
to acknowledge Alarm 2.
Figure 2.2 shows the controller face during an alarm condition, and then, after the
alarm has been acknowledged.

Latching Alarms
A latching alarm will hold its alarm state even after the process leaves the alarm
condition. This is useful for stations that will not be continually monitored by an
operator. A latching alarm can be configured to be acknowledgeable while in the
alarm condition OR only after the process leaves the alarm condition. A non-latching alarm will clear itself as soon as the process leaves the alarm
condition.
Figure 2.2
Before and After Acknowledging
an Alarm
Limit Sequence
An alarm can be configured to be both latching and non-acknowledgeable. In this
case, the alarm is acknowledgeable only after the process has left the alarm
condition. This is often referred to as a limit sequence because it behaves like
a limit controller.

CHAPTER 4
INSTALLATION & WIRING
The 532 Auto/Manual Station is thoroughly tested, calibrated and “burned
in” at the factory, so your station is ready to install. But before you begin,
read this chapter thoroughly and take great care in planning your system.
A properly designed system can help prevent problems such as electrical
noise disturbances and dangerous conditions.
System Planning
A. Consider the Noise Factor
•For improved electrical noise immunity, install the station as far
away as possible from motors, relays and other similar noise
generators.
•Do not run low power (sensor input) lines in the same bundle as AC
power lines. Grouping these lines in the same bundle can create
electrical noise interference.
Install & Wire
CAUTION!
For safety consideration, DO NOT run
low power (sensor input) lines in the
same bundle as AC power lines.
B. Wiring Practice Resources
An excellent resource about good wiring practices is the IEEE Standard
No. 518-1982 and is available from IEEE, Inc., 345 East 47th Street,
New York, NY 10017, (212) 705-7900.
Installation
A. Make the panel cutout
The station fits in a standard 1/4 DIN cutout. You may mount your station
in any panel with a thickness from .06 to .275 inches (1.5mm to 7.0mm).
See Figure 4.1 for dimensions.
If you make a mistake in the panel cutout, you can use a “Goof Plate”
(Repair Part #512-014).

Figure 4.1
532 instrument panel and cutout
dimensions
The station front face (keys, display, and bezel) are NEMA 4X rated
(waterproof). To obtain a waterproof seal between the station and the
panel, make sure:
1. The panel cutout is precise;
2. You use a fresh gasket;
3. The edge of the cutout is free from burrs and “waves;”
4. The case of the station are centered in the cutout.
If you require a waterproof seal but have difficulty with these requirements, apply a bead of caulk or silicone sealant behind the panel
around the perimeter of the case.
C. Mount station into panel:
The instrument enclosure mounting MUST BE GROUNDED.
You will need a long Phillips screw driver (#2).
1. Turn the instrument with the back towards you. Now slide the
gasket around the back of the case, all the way up to the bezel.
2. With the bezel gasket in place, insert the station into the panel
cutout from the front of the panel.
3. From behind the panel, insert the mounting clips (one on each
side), as shown in Figure 4.2
4. Gradually tighten the mounting bracket screws.
5. Tighten the screws securely and check bezel gasket to ensure a
Figure 4.3 shows the rear terminal configuration for the 532. The actual
instrument has only the top and bottom numbers of each column marked.
Refer to this diagram when using the following input and output wiring
instructions.
WARNING!
To avoid electric shock, DO NOT connect AC power wiring at
the source distribution panel until all wiring connections are
complete.
To avoid shock hazard and reduced noise immunity for your

The 532 will be in Operating Mode upon power up, and will remain in Operating
Mode most of the time it is performing its functions. This is not the same as
the OPERATIONS menu.
In Set Up Mode, you can access menus of operation parameters that affect
the display and adjustment of the stations.
Figure 5.1 illustrates the relationships between the different modes of the 532
station, and the different Set Up menus.
Menus
A menu is a group of Set Up parameters. The name of a menu appears in the
2nd display of the 532 station during your set up. Once inside a menu, the
different parameters will appear in the 2nd display. The values/options for
each parameters will appear in the 3rd display. On the station, the menu name
appears in the display at the beginning of the cycle of the menu.
These are the possible menu for your station, and their applications.
CONFIG.: To configure the input and output hardware assignments.
LOCAL OUT.: To configure the local output control.
PV INPUT: To configure the process variable (PV) indicator.
CUST. LINR: To configure the custom linearization curve for the PV indicator.
SP INPUT: To configure the set point indicator.
VP INPUT: To configure the valve position indicator.
ALARMS: To configure alarms.
SECURITY: To configure the security function.
SER. COMM.: To configure serial communications.
OPERATIONS: To make adjustments to the transition [between Remote
(Host) and Local control] functions of the station.
Smart Menus
This chapter outlines, in sequence, all menus, parameters, and selections
available for the 532 station. However, the “smart menu” feature of the
stations allows only those menu and Parameters to appear that are relevant
to your hardware and software configuration, i.e., parameters which do not
apply to your application will not appear on your station’s display.

532 Auto/Manual Station
The 532 Auto/Manual Station provides automatic and manual control backup
for critical control loops. It is normally installed between a Host device and
the final control element. The Host may be a PLC, DCS or single loop
controller (SLC). The final control element may be a valve actuator, positioning device, power control unit for an electric heating element, pump or other
control device. The control signal must always be a 4-20mA proportional
signal.
A. HOST Mode (Default Mode)
1. In the Host mode, the 532 is transparent to the control loop; it
passes the control signal from the Host device without any degradation.
2. The 532 constantly monitors the CV and uses the last good signal
as a potential CV for the transition mode.
3. In Host mode, the 532 can be removed from the case without
disrupting the Host signal; it is not a point of failure.
B. Transition Mode to LOCAL
1. The 532 switches to Local mode due to:
a. Loss of the Host signal
b. Keypad selection
c. Closure of a digital contact; or
d. Commands through the RS-485 port.
2. Upon switching to Local, the 532 generates a control signal based
on the last known CV from the Host, or selects one of two
predetermined CV(s).
NOTE:
Available capabilities depend upon the
hardware option you specified and
ordered.
NOTE:

3. The 532 can ramp the last Host signal value to either of the
predetermined CV value(s).
4. In Local mode, the operator can modify the CV signal using and
keys.
C. Transition Mode to HOST Mode
1. The 532 returns to Host Mode due to:
a. Return of Host signal (if configured to do so);
b. Keypad selection;
c. Digital contact; or
d. Commands through the RS-485 port.
2. Upon return of the Host signal, the 532 can be programmed to
a. Return control to the Host immediately;
b. Ramp to the new CV at a predetermined rate; or
c. Remain in Local mode. In Local mode, the operator can
determine whether or not the Host signal is valid.
NOTE:
Refer to Chapter 4 for information on
wiring for alarms.
NOTE:
Refer to Chapter 2 for information on
operating alarms.
Alarm Set Up
The 532 has 2 available alarms. It indicates alarm conditions by:
•Lighting up the alarm icon(s).
•Displaying a custom message in the 3rd display
•Illuminating the ACK key if the alarm is acknowledgeable.
On the 532, you assign one of 6 different types to each alarm. Also, by adding
an output module, one of the alarms can be tied a relay output.
A. Set the Alarm Type.
1. Press FAST + MENU to toggle to the ALARM menu.
2. Press MENU to select the first parameter ALM.TYPE:1 and select its
type (choose one of the following) using the and keys:
LOCAL
If tied to a relay output, a Local alarm notifies the Host that the 532
has taken over manual control. You can choose LOCAL for only one
of the 532 alarms. This alarm is useful when the Host performs logging functions for Statistical Process Control (SPC), or to prevent reset
windup.
HIGH ALRM.
The high process variable alarm occurs when the process variable
exceeds the alarm setpoint.
LOW ALARM
The low process variable alarm occurs when the process variable goes
below the alarm setpoint.

BAND
The band alarm creates a band twice the size of the alarm setpoint
[centered] around the control setpoint. An alarm occurs when the
process variable travels outside of this band. For example, if your
control setpoint is 500 and the band alarm setting is 25, the alarm
occurs if the PV travels outside of the 475 to 525 range.
This alarm is dependent upon retransmission of the control setpoint
to the 532. As the control setpoint changes, the band changes accordingly.
DEVIATION
The deviation alarm creates a band on one side of the control setpoint. An alarm occurs when the process variable deviates from the
control setpoint by an amount greater than the alarm setpoint.
For example, if the control setpoint is 500 and the alarm setpoint is
+50 (plus 50), an alarm occurs when the process variable exceeds
550. If your alarm setpoint is –50, the alarm occurs when the process variable drops below 450.
This alarm is dependent upon retransmission of the control setpoint
to the 532. As the control setpoint changes, the band changes accordingly.
RATE
The rate alarm occurs when the process variable changes at a rate
greater than that specified by the alarm setpoint and time base. For
example, if you have an alarm setpoint of 10 and a time base of 5
seconds, an alarm occurs if the VP changes greater than 10 in 5
seconds.
Use RATE to signal an alarm before the PV reaches an undesirable
level.
3. Press the MENU key to select the second parameter ALM.TYPE:2 and
select its type using the and keys.
Applications
NOTE:
The Band and Deviation alarms are
not selectable without a PV and a
retransmitted SP signal.
B. Set the Alarm Parameters
Each alarm type (except the 532 LOCAL alarm) has a number of correspond-
ing parameters that must also be set up in the ALARM menu.
Smart Menus feature: only those parameters that apply to your particular
alarm type will appear as you toggle through the parameters.
Press the MENU key to select the rest of the parameters in the ALARM menu,
and choose their values with the and keys.
4. ALARM SP:1 and ALARM SP:2
Specifies, in engineering units, the point at which the alarm occurs.
For a rate-of-change alarm, it specifies the amount of change that must
occur before the alarm activates. A negative value specifies a negative
rate-of-change.

NOTE:
You can specify whether the relay is
Normally Open or Normally Closed
when configuring the hardware, with
jumper selection for outputs 1, 2 & 3.
5. DEADBAND:1 and DEADBAND:2
Specifies the range through which the PV must travel before leaving an
alarm condition (see alarm examples at the end of this section).
This prevents frequent alarm oscillation or “chattering” if the process
variable has stabilized around the alarm point.
6. RELAY:1 and RELAY:2
Specifies whether the relay will be on or off. ON means the relay is
energized, while OFF means the relay is de-energized when the station
is in the alarm condition.
Most applications require the relay to energize. However, limit applications usually require the relay to de-energize.
7. LATCHING:1 and LATCHING:2
If the alarm is latching (YES), the alarm remains active after leaving the
alarm condition unless acknowledged.
If the alarm is non-latching (NO) the alarm returns to its non-alarm state
when leaving the alarm condition without being acknowledged.
8. ACK.:1 and ACK.:2
ENABLED allows the operator to acknowledge an alarm at any time, even
if the control process is still in the alarm condition.
DISABLED prevents the operator from acknowledging an alarm while the
process is in the alarm condition.
When either alarm is available to be acknowledged, the ACK key will be
illuminated. If both alarms are acknowledgeable, press the ACK key once
to acknowledge alarm #1, then a second time for alarm #2. A latching
alarm can always be acknowledged when it is out of the alarm condition.
9. POWER UP:1 and POWER UP:2
If you want the controller to always power up in alarm, regardless of the
alarm condition, then select ALARM. This is an excellent way to activate
an alarm if there has been a power failure.
If you never want the controller to power up in alarm, regardless of alarm
condition, select DELAYED. The system must leave and reenter the
alarm condition before the alarm will activate. This is typically used to
avoid alarms during start up.
If you want the system to power up in alarm only if it is in an alarm
condition, select NORMAL.
10. MESSAGE:1 and MESSAGE:2
Allows you to enter a nine character message to display when the
respective alarm is active. The first character of the 3rd display will be
flashing. Use and keys to scroll through character set for each

11. RATE TIME
Defines the time period over which a specific change in process variable
must occur for the rate alarm to be activated. The amount of change is
defined by the alarm setpoint. The rate-of-change is defined as the
amount of change divided by the time period. In general, for a given rateof-change, the shorter the time period, the more sensitive the rate alarm.
Example:
a. If the alarm setpoint is set to 10 and the time base is set to 1
second, the rate of change is 10 units per second. The process
variable would only have to experience a ten unit change over a
short period of time.
b. If the alarm setpoint is set to 100 and the time base set to 10, the
rate of change is also 10 units per second. The PV would require
a 100 unit change over a ten second period.
Notice that Example A is more sensitive than Example B.

B. Square Root Linearization
Many flow transmitters generate a nonlinear signal corresponding to the flow
being measured. The station must have the square root of this signal in order
to use it. The station has the capability to perform this function for itself.

Ramp to Control Value
The “ramp to control value” function is especially useful in processes where
the rate-of-change (from Remote to Local, or Local to Remote) of the control
value must be limited, or under any circumstances where there is likely to be
a significant difference between control values at mode transition time.
Under normal operating circumstances, the 532 passes the Host device
signal to the final control element without modification, and stores the current
CV value with each cycle of the CPU. When the 532 switches to Local mode
(see page 2 for details), it will provide a CV based on the last known good
value from the Host . It can also, however, go to one of two preset outputs.
These values may be considerably different from the Host value, so a sudden
change in the output value is possible. The ramp feature enables the operator
to select how long it will take the output to change from one value to the other.
The 532 has provisions for ramping from Remote to Local, and from Localto Remote.
1. Press the FAST + MENU keys to toggle to the OPERATIONS menu.
2. For Remote to Local mode transfer, set the parameter R/L XFER
(remote to local transfer type), to type RAMP.
2. For Local to Remote mode transfer, set the parameter L/R XFER (local
to remote transfer type) to type RAMP.
3. Either the R/L RAMP (remote to local ramp) parameter and/or
L/R RAMP (local to remote ramp) will now be available. Enter the
transition time (5-120 seconds).
When this function is active the controller will automatically ramp the control
value at the desired rate during the transition from remote to local control or
local to remote control. It will also work if preset values have been chosen
when transferring between remote and local control.
Security
The security function contains parameters that allow the user to selectively
lock out the various functions of the station. Security only locks out the
keypad commands. Digital Inputs or Serial Communications are not affected.
1. Press the FAST + MENU keys to toggle to the SECURITY menu. Press
MENU to access each of the following parameters, and the and
keys to set their values.
2. SEC. CODE
Define the security code using the and keys. This parameter does
not appear unless all functions are unlocked. The security function is
compromised if the security code is left at zero (0).
3. REMOT./LOCL
Selects whether the LOCAL key should be LOCKED or UNLOCKED. This
function would prevent the operator from placing the 532 in Local mode.
Transfer to Local mode is accomplished by loss of Host signal, digital
contact closure or Serial Communications only.

CONFIGURE if you want full security. If left UNLOCKED, the operator has
access to the security code.
Whenever a locked function is attempted, the operator has the opportunity to
enter a security code to override the Lock. If the correct code is entered, the
operator has full access. The security feature reactivates after one minute of
keypad inactivity.
The operator also can enter the SECURITY OVERRIDE CODE, which, if
entered correctly, RESETS the whole station to its default settings.

The Process Variable Reading
Correction feature is provided as a
convenience. We recommend that the
condition causing the erroneous
reading be corrected.

The security override code is 62647 . Store this in a secure place.
Process Variable Reading Correction
Under certain extraneous conditions—such as an aging thermocouple, out of
calibration transmitter, lead wire resistance—the station may display values
other than the actual process value. To compensate for these conditions, you
can set offset and gain values for the process variable.
1. Press FAST + MENU to toggle to the PV INPUT menu. Press MENU to
access each of the following parameters, and the and keys to set
values for them.
2. PV OFFSET
This either adds or subtracts a set value from the process variable
reading in engineering units. For example, if your thermocouple was
always reading 3° too high, you could set the PV OFFSET parameter to
-3 to compensate.
3. PV GAIN
Multiplies the deviation from the low end of the process variable range by
the gain factor and then adds it to the value of the low end of the range
to arrive at the adjusted process variable value.

to compensate for just about any inaccuracy in your sensor or transmitter.
Serial Communications
Serial communications is an optional feature. It enables the station to
communicate with a supervisory device, such as a personal computer or
programmable logic controller. The circuitry for communications is contained
on a modular circuit board that plugs into the Microcontroller Circuit Board.
The station uses communications standard RS-485, which provides a multidrop system that communicates at a high rate over long distances. Typical
limitations are 32 stations per pair of wires over a distance up to 4000 feet.
The station uses a proprietary protocol which provides an extremely fast and
accurate response to any command. A Cyclic Redundancy Checksum (CRC)
can be enabled to ensure the integrity of any data read by the controller.
Through communications, you have access to every set up and operating
parameter in the station.
1. Press the FAST + MENU keys to toggle to the SER.COMM. menu. Press
MENU to access each of the following parameters, and use the and
keys to set values for them.
2. STATION
Specifies the unit’s station address. It is the only way one controller can
be distinguished from another. Each controller on the same
RS-485 interface must have a unique station address.
3. BAUD RATE
Choose a baud rate from 1200 to 19,200. In general, you want to select
the highest baud rate. However, every station on the RS-485 interface
must be set to the same baud rate.
4. CRC
Indicates if you are going to take advantage of the Cyclic Redundancy
Checksum feature. If your Host program supports it, we highly recommend that you activate it.
NOTE:
For further details on the station’s
communications protocol, contact one
of our application engineers.

CALIBRATION
The first three sections of this chapter provide information on calibration for:
RTD and VmA inputs, Thermocouple Cold Junction Compensation,
and Milliamp Output.
Access these parts of the calibration menu as shown in Figure D.1.
Regarding Calibration
To maintain optimum performance, once a year calibrate the analog input,
cold junction (when a thermocouple is used) and mA Out (when used). To
achieve published accuracy specifications, follow directions carefully and
use calibrated instruments of like quality to those suggested. Also, if you
move a station chassis into an alternate case or change its hardware
configuration, and you choose to use thermocouple input, you may want to
recalibrate the cold junction for optimal accuracy. Failure to do so may
result in small junction temperature (not more than 0.6°C/1.1°F).

CALIBRATION
•To maintain optimum performance, once a year calibrate the analog input,
the cold junction and milliamp output (when used). To achieve published accuracy specifications, follow directions carefully and use calibrated instruments of like quality to those suggested.
•If the controller is moved into an alternate case, or the hardware configuration
is changed, and the thermocouple input is needed, recalibrate the cold junction for maximum accuracy. Failure to do so may result in small junction temperature (0.6°C/1.1°F).
Access the parts of the calibration menu as shown in
Important:
The 532 comes from the factory with one milliamp output module installed in
position (output) 2 and relays in positions (outputs) 3 and 4. These must not bemodified. You may install a mechanical relay, solid state relay or DC logic module in position (output) 1 for alarm functions.

8. Replace tie wraps for the Retention Plate and for
Output Module 4 with new ones.
Failure to use these devices may result in a
loosening of the module and eventual
failure. If you ordered a module separately,
it should have come with a tie wrap. An
extra set of tie wraps is available by ordering Part #535-665.
Note: For greatest accuracy, milliamp
modules added for retransmission must be
calibrated per instructions in Operator's
Manual.
To Change the Option Board
9. (See Photos 3 and 4) Replace the existing Option
board with the NEW one.
Note: When adding Option board for 5
digital inputs, associated screw terminal in
the rear terminal block must be installed.
(See information on page 1 for ordering a
Screw Kit.)
To Change the Power Supply or
Microcontroller (CPU) Board
10. For the Microcontroller Board, disconnect the 5-pin
female connector that wires it to the Display
Assembly. Reattach the connector to the new
board. You can only orient the connector one way.
For the Power Supply Board, disconnect the 5-pin
female connector that wires it to the Display
Assembly. Reattach the connector to the new
board. You can only orient the connector one way.
To Change the Display Assembly
11. Disconnect the 5-pin female connector that wires
the Microcontroller Board to the Display Assembly.
Disconnect the 5-pin female connector that wires
the Power Supply Board to the Display Assembly.
12. Attach the new Display Assembly to the boards at
the appropriate connectors.
CAUTION
Static discharge will cause damage to equipment. Always ground yourself with a wrist
grounding strap when handling electronics
to prevent static discharge.
To Change the EPROM
13. The EPROM is located on the Microcontroller
Circuit board (Figure 2). It has a white label that
list the part number and software revision level.
Use an I.C. Extractor to carefully remove the
EPROM. If you do not have an I.C. extractor,
gently use a small flat blade screwdriver to pry up
the EPROM. DO Not bend the EPROM legs.
14. Carefully insert the new EPROM. To position
correctly, match the notched end of the EPROM to
the markings on the board. The notched end will
face towards the display. Make sure all pins are in
the socket.
To Reassemble the Unit
15. (See Figure 2) Align the connector pins on the
Option Board with the connector sockets on the
Microcontroller and Power Supply boards.
Squeeze them together, making certain all three
are properly seated against one another. Check
along the side edges for gaps. Make sure the
conector is properly aligned. Also, check that the
cable assemblies are not pinched.
16. (See Figure 2) Align the board assembly with the
front face assembly, with the Option board at the
bottom (see Figure 1). Reinstall the retention
clips. Align the boards into the slots of the front
face assembly and the clips will snap into place.
17. When you are ready to reassemble the unit, align
the boards in the chassis with the case's top and
bottom grooves. Press firmly to slide the chassis
into the case. If you have difficulty, check that you
have properly oriented the chassis, and there are
no screws interfering with the case.
18. Carefully insert and align screws. Tighten them
until the bezel is seated firmly against the gasket.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
19. If may be necessary to re-configure the software
features of your controller or station. Please refer
to your User’s Manual.
20. To maintain NEMA 4X Rating, you may need new
mounting gaskets, order part #535-662. Refer to
your user’s manual.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the boards or bend the pins of the
connectors.
