Murphy TDXM User Manual

Description

The innovative new TDXM now gives you a unique con­figurable temperature scanner/pyrometer with a built-in
power supply. A new design features a 7-character, 7-seg­ment Liquid Crystal Display window with 1/2 inch (13
mm), easy-to-read characters. Also located on the face­plate are membrane keys for easy configuring.

Highly reliable and versatile, the TDXM accepts up to
24 type “J” or “K” grounded or ungrounded

*

thermo­couples. Each channel has three (3) adjustable set­points SP1, SP2 and SP3. The SP1, SP2 and SP3
Setpoints correspond to the SP1, SP2 and SP3 outputs.
Additionally it has the selectable feature to monitor and
alarm or shutdown on deviation from an average from up
to two groups of temperatures (GRP/DEV; deviation from
average). One group could be exhaust temperatures and
another group could be bearing temperatures.

The TDXM is capable of communicating with controllers,
PLC’s, computers or SCADA (Supervisory Control &
Data Acquisition) systems by a built-in RS485 serial com­munications port.
The TDXM-DC is available for 10 - 32 VDC systems.

User Interface (Faceplate)

The User Interface includes a numeric LCD display
and a 5-button membrane keypad for readout and
channel configuration. Thermocouple types can be
selected and setpoints entered through a series of
setup menus, see “Setup Menus” section.

Thermocouple Types

Each of the 24 channels on the TDXM can be con­figured as either “J” or “K” type thermocouples

and temperature units can be selected as °F or °C
readout for each channel. Unused channels can be
set to “Ignore” and will not be seen in the display
and will not cause fault trips.

Control Options

Each TDXM model features three outputs: 2 Field
Effect Transistor (FET) outputs and 1 Form-C Relay
output. Each channel has 3 setpoints, one for each of
the outputs. This allows for greater system flexibility
by grouping sets of channels through one output.

Setpoint History

The TDXM stores the last setpoint trip for each output
in non-volatile memory. For instance, if SP1of channel
1 was the last SP1 tripped, the LCD display will read:
SP1 1 when the Setpoint History is accessed for SP1.

Sensor Inputs and
Terminals

The TDXM accepts up to 24, either “J” or “K” type
grounded or ungrounded

*

thermocouples using 24
pairs of screw type connections. Each pair has a jumper
from the factory. Any tripped setpoint is detected within
2 seconds after the set point is exceeded.

RS485 Serial Port

The RS485 serial port (MODBUS

®

†

RTU slave) on
the back of the module is provided for communicating
with micro-controllers, PC’s, PLC’s and SCADAsys­tems (see “Typical Wiring Diagrams”). It is recom­mended that a termination

resistor (customer supplied)
be used when the TDXM is the last device connected
in a daisy-chain configuration. The Baud rate, number

of stop bits, and slave node number can be set using
the keypad. Communication is half-duplex. Modbus

®

RTU function codes 3 and 6 are supported.

We recommend the use of ungrounded thermocouples.
Errors in readings with grounded thermocouples can be the
result of differences in grounding between different devices.
