4. FEATURES AND PREPARATION PROCEDURE OF M3LU2

4.1 FEATURES OF M3LU2

The M3LU2 is a eld congurable signal transmitter using a simulator and an indicator, without a PC or a dedicated setting unit. For instance, select an input type and range with the DIP switches on the unit to set input. Then apply a desired minimum or maximum input from the simulator and press a front button to memorize the value as minimum or maximum value. Easy and reasonable M-System’s one-step calibration (hereafter called ‘One-Step Cal’) realizes automatic I/O ranging and cali­bration only by pressing a button once.

4.2 PREPARATION PROCEDURE

Before using the unit, perform the calibration according the following ow. The procedure depends on the conguration options or modes.
•Two conguration modes are available with the model M3LU2-x/A, eld conguration using the DIP SW / control buttons (hereafter called ‘DIP SW conguration’) and the PC conguration.
•The model M3LU2-x/B is for the DIP SW conguration only.

Front control button lock As necessary As necessary

7.2 DIP SWITCH SELECTION PER I/O SPECIFICATION AND FUNCTION

Congure the DIP switches and JP2 according to your I/O specications and functions. The unit reads the DIP-switch-calibrated conguration only once after the power supply is turned on. Set the switches with the power supply removed. Some tools are needed to set the DIP switches and JP2.
•Set the switches and JP2 with the power supply removed.
•Use tweezers or longnose pliers to switch the JP2.
•Use a minus screwdriver with the blade edge 0.8 mm (0.03”) to set the DIP switches.
•Do not touch other electronic components except for the JP2 and DIP switches.

8.1 CAUTION IN WIRING

•Make sure for safety that only qualied personnel performs the wiring.
•In order to prevent potential electric shock, wire the unit after turning off the power supply and making sure that the
power is not supplied to the cable.
•Be sure to conrm the name and polarity of each terminal before wiring to the Euro type connector terminal blocks (hereafter called ‘terminal block(s)’).
•Take measures to reduce noise as much as possible, e.g. by using shielded twisted pair wires for the input signal. Ground the input shield to the most stable earth to prevent noise troubles.
•Do not connect anything to unused terminals.
•M-System offers a series of lightning surge protectors for protection against induced lightning surges. Please con-
tact M-System to choose appropriate models.

10. CALIBRATION

‘Calibration’ means I/O ranging or output ne adjustments using the front control buttons. M-System’s ‘One-Step-Cal’ cali­bration technique realizes automatic I/O ranging and adjustment. This chapter describes ow and operation procedure of the calibration. You can also carry out the calibration using the PC Congurator Software (model: M3LUCFG). For detailed information, refer to the M3LUCFG users manual.

10.1 CALIBRATION FLOW

The calibration includes I/O Ranging Mode and Fine Adjustment Mode. Hold down the MODE button to shift each mode from the RUN Mode. The mode to shift depends on the time to hold down the button. The following chart shows the calibration ow.

10.2 INPUT & OUTPUT RANGING

After the DIP switch setting is complete, set up the precise input and output range using the front control buttons. Be sure that the front control button function is enabled with the DIP switch setting (SW2-6 OFF).

10.2.1 OUTLINE OF I/O RANGING

PREPARATION
Mount the DIP-SW-congured M3LU2 on to a DIN rail. Connect the M3LU2 to a simulator and a multimeter and to a power source according to the terminal connections.
INPUT RANGING
•In the Input Ranging Mode, apply the desired minimum input level from the simulator and hold down DOWN button until the LD1 blinks and then turns OFF.
•Then apply the desired maximum input level and hold down UP button until the LD1 blinks and then turns OFF.
[Example 1] Setting input to 0 – 5 V DC Maximum input range: -10 to +10 V DC 0% input ranging: apply 0 V DC and hold down DOWN button 100% input ranging: apply 5 V DC and hold down UP button

•100% input ranging value must be greater than 0% value.
•Set the input within the maximum range with the minimum span or more. With inappropriate input level, the input rang-
ing is not carried out even in holding down UP or DOWN button. (The LD1 does not change.)
•There is no stated order of setting 0% and 100% levels or no limitations of entering values for multiple times within one step of Ranging Mode.
•Signal level is not stored when UP or DOWN button is released before the LD1 turns OFF.
29M3LU2 OPERATING MANUAL EM-2653-B Rev.0
OUTPUT RANGING
•In the Output Ranging Mode, increase or decrease the simulated input until the meter shows the desired minimum output level. Hold down DOWN button until the LD1 blinks and then turns OFF.
•Then increase or decrease the simulated input until the meter shows the desired maximum output level. Hold down UP button until the LD1 blinks and then turns OFF.
[Example 2] Setting output to 0 – 16 mA DC (input 0 – 5 V DC [Example 1]) Maximum output range: 0 – 20 mA DC 0% output ranging: increase or decrease a simulated input until the meter shows 0 mA DC and hold down
DOWN button.

11. CHECKING, MAINTENANCE, INITIALIZATION OF PARAMETERS

11.1 CHECKING

(1) Terminal wiring: Check that all cables are correctly connected according to the connection diagram. (2) DIP SW setting: Check that the switches are set to appropriate positions. (3) Power input voltage: Check voltage across the terminal 10 – 12 (AC) or 11 – 12 (DC) with a multimeter. (4) Input: Check that the input signal is within 0 to 100% of full-scale.
If the DC voltage (mV), thermocouple, RTD, resistance, potentiometer input or their extension wires is/are discon­nected, the output goes over 100% (below 0% with downscale protection) due to burnout function. Conrm the status indicator LED pattern and check leadwires in such a case.
(5) Output: Check that the load resistance meets the described specications.

11.2 MAINTENANCE

Perform the periodic calibration as stated below.
CALIBRATION
Warm up the unit for 10 minutes or more, apply 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% input to the unit, and make sure that the output is 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% respectively within the prescribed accuracy. In case the output is deviated from the accuracy, perform the ne zero/span adjustment.

11.3 INITIALIZATION OF PARAMETERS

You can reset the DIP-SW-congured parameters (I/O ranging and ne adjustments) to the default status. Reset the pa­rameters in the following procedure.
(1) Turn off the power supply to the unit, open the housing cover and set the SW2-1 to OFF and SW2-2 to ON position. (2) Close the cover and turn on the power while pressing MODE button. (3) Wait until green LED blinks at the LD1, LD2 and LD3. (4) Turn off the power, open the cover and reset the SW2-1 and SW2-2 to the previous position. (5) Close the cover and turn on the power again.

12.2 PC CONFIGURATOR SOFTWARE

The I/O settings and calibration are congurable with the PC Congurator Software (model: M3LUCFG). It is convenient to set the same I/O specications to several units or the items which are not available with the DIP SW conguration or ‘One-Step Cal’ calibration. Whether the I/O settings are available or not depends on the conguration option code and conguration mode.
A dedicated cable is required to connect the unit to the PC.
