1.2 General description

The Net Safety Monitoring Inc. SafeGuard 16 channel Controller is designed to display and control alarm event switching for up to sixteen detectors (Flame detectors or transmitters with gas sensor) data points. It may also be set as an eight channel SafeGuard Controller for applications needing fewer inputs. Alarm features such as ON and OFF delays, Alarm Acknowledge, and a dedicated horn relay make the SafeGuard Controller well suited for many multi-point monitoring applications. Data may be input to the SafeGuard Controller by optional analog inputs or the standard Modbus® RTU master RS-485 port. A Modbus RTU slave RS­485 port is also standard for sending data to PC’s, PLC’s, DCS’s, or even other SafeGuard Controllers. Options such as analog I/O and discrete relays for each alarm are easily added to the addressable I and therefore require 2 boards for 16 channel applications.

A 240 x 128 pixel graphic LCD readout displays monitored data as bar graphs, trends and engineering units. System configuration is through user friendly menus and all configuration data is retained in non-volatile memory during power interruptions. The SafeGuard Controller’s front panel is shown below in Figure 1.0 displaying the 8 channel bar graph screen. Additional data screens are shown in Figure 2.0.

1.3 Data display screens

The SafeGuard Controller offers 3 distinct graphic displays for depicting the monitored data. These are Bar Graphs, 24 Hour Trend and Combination. Each is shown in Figure 2.0.

1.3.1 Trend screen

The SafeGuard Controller’s Trend screen shown in Figure 2.0 displays a 24 hour trend of input data for the channel selected. Horizontal tic marks are each hour and vertical tic marks are each 10% of full scale. Dashed lines indicate alarm levels. The graphic LCD is 240 pixels wide so each pixel represents 1/10 hour, or 6 minutes worth of data. The trend is 100 pixels high so each represents 1% of full scale in amplitude. Since each data point must be collected for 6 minutes before it may be displayed, it is likely input values will fluctuate during this interval. Therefore, MAX, MIN and AVERAGE values are stored in RAM memory for each 6 minute subinterval. To accurately portray the trend, a vertical line is drawn between MIN & MAX values for each 6 minute subinterval. The AVERAGE value pixel is then left blank, leaving a gap in the vertical line. This is demonstrated in the noisy area of the 24 hour trend in Figure 2.0. If the MAX & MIN values are within 2% of each other there is no need for the vertical line and only the AVERAGE value pixel is darkened as in the quiet areas.
The top portion of each trend screen indicates channel #, real time reading in engrg. units, measurement name, range, and MIN, MAX & AVERAGE values for the preceding 24 hour period. The SI field on the top right indicates number of seconds remaining in the current 6 minute subinterval.
MAN-0115 Rev A 4

1.3.2 Bar Graphs screen

When wiring transmitters (detectors) to the SafeGuard Controller refer to 3.1.1 Optional Analog Input PCB # SG10-0158 and Figure 3.3.
The SafeGuard Controller’s Bar Graphs screen shown in Figure 2.0 allows all active channels to be viewed simultaneously. Both engineering units values and bar graph values are indicated in real time. Lines across the bars indicate the alarm trip points making it easy to identify channels at or near alarm. A feature in the Systems menu tree allows new alarms to always force the LCD to the bar graphs screen. This is useful for applications requiring channels with alarms to be displayed.

1.3.3 Combination screen

The SafeGuard Controller’s Combination screen shown in Figure 2.0 offers a view of a single channel but displays the data as a 30 minute trend, bar graph and large engineering units. It is also useful for testing inputs for stability since MAX, MIN & AVERAGE values refresh each time this screen is selected. For example, to test stability over a one hour period for an input, begin timing as soon as the channel is selected. One hour later record the MAX, MIN & AVERAGE values. The difference between MAX & MIN indicates peak to peak excursions over the one hour period and AVERAGE is the average for the hour. Longer or shorter tests may also be run. The numeric value shown below the bar-graph indicates number of minutes samples have been taken. After 999 minutes the AVERAGE buffer overflows and the error message UPDATE appears in the AVERAGE field. Exiting this screen resets the buffer and clears the error message.

1.4 Specifications

1.4.1 DC power supply requirements

Standard SafeGuard Controller power requirements are 10-30VDC @ 3 watts applied to terminals 9 & 11 of TB2 on the standard I/O PCB (see section 3.0). Optional features increase power consumption as described below:
Discrete Relay PCB option; add 2 watts per PCB (assumes all 8 relays are
energized).
Analog Input PCB option; add 1/2 watt.
4-20mA Output PCB option; add 1 watt.
TB2 terminals 10 & 12 of the standard I/O PCB provide a maximum of
500mA fused output power for powering of auxiliary external devices such as relays, lamps or transmitters. Power consumed from these terminals should be considered when calculating system power consumption.

It is important to understand that though discrete channel alarms (LED’s & optional discrete relays) may be set as Alarm 3 level alarms, the common relay for this group is always a Fault alarm. The fault out of range threshold for the channel is the most recent Fault trip point entered prior to changing the menu to Alarm 3. The following example describes how to configure both the Fault out of range and Alarm 3 level trip points for a channel. negative 10% of full scale, and, the discrete alarms trip as the input exceeds a level, then the –10% Fault setpoint must be entered first. Toggle the TYPE menu entry to FAULT and enter –10.00% into the setpoint entry. Next, toggle the menu back to LEVEL and enter the desired Alarm 3 level setpoint. The -10% Fault value is retained in memory even though it no longer appears on the menu.

2.3.5 Min / Max Raw counts entries

The Min Raw and Max Raw counts entries included in Input Data From: menus define the range of input counts that provide Measurement Range read-out values described in section 2.2.6b. This menu entry is determined by the A/D converter resolution of the channel’s input. For example, if the input is a 10 bit Modbus® device with zero at 200 counts and 100% at 1000 counts, then this menu’s MIN should be set at 200 and MAX at 1000. If communicating with the SafeGuard Controller’s optional 12 bit Analog Input PCB the MIN should be 800 and the MAX
4000.
If the input device’s resolution is unknown, the live counts variable on the bottom of the screen displays actual raw A/D counts currently being read by this channel. This reading may be used to test the input device for what A/D counts are provided for zero and 100% if these values are unknown. Forcing the input device to read zero should provide the A/D counts value needed to make this channel’s display also read zero. Likewise, forcing the input device to read 100% should provide the A/D counts value needed to make the SafeGuard channel’s display also read 100%.
If Modbus 32 BIT is selected, a Byte Order entry appears at the bottom of the menu. This determines WORD and BYTE alignment of data at the remote Modbus transmitter when sending its 4 byte IEEE Floating Point values. With the pointer on this entry, the EDIT key toggles between the 4 possible modes. Min / Max Raw values are not used in this mode.

2.3.8 Linearization menu

The linearization menu allows each channel to have its own linearization curve stored in the SafeGuard Controller’s non-volatile memory. Input versus output points must be entered in percent of full scale values. This means if the range is 0­200 ppm H2S then 100 ppm is 50% of full scale. Zero input will provide a zero output and 100% input a 100% output. Nine intermediate points may be entered to define the curve.
Figure 2.6

2.3.9 Configure menu

From the entry level setup menu in Figure 2.7 the CONFIGURE menu may be entered for setting variables defining how the SafeGuard Controller presents monitored data to the various graphic displays.
Figure 2.7

2.3.10 Eunits / Measurement Name ASCII data fields

The first two items in this menu are for entering the 6 character engineering unit and 16 character Measurement Name ASCII fields. Eunits should define the units of measure for what this channel is to display. Measurement Name should describe the source of this data in the user’s terminology. Section 2.1.1 of this manual describes how to use the front keypad to modify these fields.

2.3.11 Input measurement range

The ZERO / SPAN entries allow configuration of the measurement range displayed by the channel. Measurement Range works along with A/D Counts menus, described in section 2.2.4a, to define the range of the input signal’s engineering units. For example, if a channel’s input is 4-20mA from a transmitter monitoring 0 to 10ppm H2S, then the Zero value should equal 0.000 and the Span value equal 10.00.

2.3.12 Decimal point resolution

Resolution of displayed channel values is configured in this menu by setting the number digits trailing the decimal point. Values are limited to a maximum of four digits, and a polarity sign. An auto-ranging feature displays the highest resolution allowed by this menu’s decimal point entry. For example, if three decimal points are entered, and the range is 0 to 100ppm, the reading will be
at 100ppm. However, this may be undesirable due to the high resolution at zero unless the detector’s output is extremely stable. If decimal points are limited to one, the 0ppm reading becomes Resolution may be limited further by setting decimal points to 0. In the above example, this would cause 0ppm to display

2.3.14 Copy Data to?

This menu simplifies the Setup procedure by allowing similar channels to be copied from one to another. For example, if all channels are identical except for the Measurement Name entry, channel 1 could be configured and copied to channels 2 – 16. Only Measurement Name then must be configured on channels 2 – 16. Use Press
to increment channel numbers and
once more to copy.

2.3.15 Cal mode

This SafeGuard Controller feature is only accessible when
used if the transmitter and sensor connected to the controller are located in an area not easily accessible. A calibration tube should be fitted to the sensor and run to an easy access location where a gas canister is fitted and calibration performed using the calibration menu. It should be noted that the current output from the SafeGuard Analog Output Board will be 1.5 mA when the device is in calibration mode.
The CALIBRATION MENU allows entering the correct Cal ZERO & Cal SPAN set­point values needed to calibrate the sensor. These are entered in the same engineering units as input range. Set Zero & Set Span controls in this menu allow pushbutton calibration by moving the pointer to each and pressing the key. A live reading of the channel’s value allows calibration checks to see if an adjustment is needed. Unintentional calibrations are reset by the Unity Gain

For example, if an LEL combustible sensor is to be spanned with 50% LEL span gas, the span set-point must be 50%. If 45% LEL is to be used later, the span set-point must be changed to 45% to match the span calibration gas. If the reading is only 40% LEL with the 50% gas applied a span calibration is needed. Move the pointer to the Set Span entry and press used at anytime to cancel incorrect calibrations and start again. See Figure 2.8.

2.4.3 Common horn relay and local piezo

The SafeGuard Controller is equipped with a low decibel audible piezo which chirps when keys are pressed and may be configured to audibly indicate alarm conditions. The common horn relay is similar to the common A1 & A2 common relays.
Figure 2.12
Turning Piezo Alarm ON causes the audible piezo to duplicate the
action of the horn relay. This feature may be used to provide a low decibel indication of the status of the system’s horn.
Alarm 1 & Alarm 2 menus control how the alarm level from each
channel will affect the common horn relay. Choices are OFF, ON or BEEP (one Hz. Pulsating). As an example, A2 conditions might pulse the horn (BEEP) and A1 conditions cause a steady horn (ON). Any other combination of these 3 choices is possible for A1 and A2 levels affecting the horn relay. This feature is very useful since it allows the horn relay to serve as another level A1, level A2, or both; for channels 1-16, 1-8 or 9-16. Individual channel alarms may also be configured to not affect the Horn relay on a channel by channel basis (see section 2.2.2).

One way the SafeGuard Controller cost is kept low is Input / Output option PCB’s are arranged into groups of 8 channels. Therefore, users with less than 9 channels require only 1 PCB and do not pay for I/O hardware for 16 channels. If more than 8 channels are needed a second I/O option PCB may be required.

3.1 Main I/O interface PCB

The most basic SafeGuard Controller requires only the I/O PCB shown in Figure 3.1 for interfacing to field wiring. The SafeGuard Controller’s primary power supply is applied to terminals 9 & 11 of TB2. This may be from 10 – 30 VDC.
DC output terminals 10 & 12 on TB2 provide up to 500mA of output power for powering remote devices such as lamps, transmitters etc.
and
This PCB includes both ports, 5 amp form C relays for each common alarm event (A1, A2, FAULT/A3 & HORN), and power supply I/O terminals. JP1 allows the RS-485 ports to be configured for 2 or 4 wire operation. A 26 pin ribbon cable connects the I/O PCB to the SafeGuard Controller’s CPU and Display nest assembly. Two I connectors allow addition of optional functions such as analog I/O and discrete alarm relays for each channel.
Horizontal jumpers installed in JP1 connect the RS-485 port’s RX & TX lines, simplifying 2 wire daisy chains by providing additional terminals for incoming and outgoing cables. For example, installing the 2 COM 1 jumpers connects screw

An optional Discrete Relay PCB, shown in Figure 3.4, adds eight 5 amp (resistive) form C relays per sixteen channel alarm group (2 PCB’s required when utilizing more than 8 channels). Each PCB may be configured via rotary switch S1 to function for ALARM 1, ALARM 2 or ALARM 3/FAULT for channels 1-8 or 9-16. A one (1)-minute time delay after power, is provided to inhibit relay actuation until the system has had time to stabilize. Alarm groups, or zones, may be created by connecting adjacent channels together using JP4 as shown. This creates a wire OR function with selected channels, causing any alarm included within the zone to actuate ALL zone relays.

An optional 10 bit 4-20mA analog output board, shown in Figure 3.5, may be connected to the I and 20mA for 100% readings. Loop drive capability depends upon the level of the SafeGuard Controller’s primary DC power supply. With at least 20 volts DC primary power they are capable of driving 20mA through a 750 ohm load. Outputs are self powered and DC power should not be provided by the receiving device. Note: This PCB requires nominal 24VDC power be connected to TB2 terminals 1 & 2 as shown in Figure 3.5. Suitable power is available from the SafeGuard Controller’s Main I/O board’s TB2 terminal 10 & 12 (see Figure 3.1). The current loop (Milliamp output) is completed between High and Low Terminals. Note that the Low Terminal is the negative end (common) of the loop.
Since the PCB has 8 channels, two PCBs are required for 16 channel applications. JP1 configures the outputs for channels groups 1-8 or 9-16. Also see 2.2.4b Marker Menu to configure the SafeGuard Controller for current output for a fault condition of a detector or transmitter and gas sensor configuration.

3.2.4 Optional 24VDC 150 watt power supply

The SafeGuard Controller may be powered from 10-30VDC. However, many applications require 24VDC power for the monitors or transmitters providing inputs to the SafeGuard Controller. A 150 watt AC / DC power supply may be included for these applications (115VAC or 230 VAC selected via slide switch). When ordered from the factory, it is pre-wired to provide 24VDC primary power for the SafeGuard Controller as well as any transmitters or monitors that may be connected by the end user.

The SafeGuard Controller is equipped with Master (COMM 1), and Slave (COMM 2), modbus RTU ports. Port configurations are described in sections 2.2 and 2.3 of this manual. Section 5.0 defines register locations of data available via the SafeGuard Controller’s slave port.

5.2 Modbus slave register locations

The following tables describe the SafeGuard Controller’s modbus slave database. Any portion of this data may be read by a modbus master device such as a PC, PLC or DCS. Since the modbus port is RS-485, many SafeGuard Controllers may be multi-dropped onto the same cable.

24 Hour Trend Database
The 24 hour MAX, MIN and AVERAGE trend data may be retrieved over the Modbus serial interface. Each channel consists of 240 MAX, MIN and AVERAGE values, or, one value for every 1/10 hour (6 minutes). Since there are 16 channels this database equals 3,840 registers in addresses 33017-
36857. Due to the large size, MAX, MIN or AVERAGE values may only be retrieved one at a time. To improve bandwidth the master may retrieve the database in blocks of 120 registers at a time (one half of a channel’s data). The C1 only updates these 3,840 registers upon receiving an update command from the Modbus master.

electrostatic charge caused by direct contact or induced by an electrostatic field.
The most common cause of ESD is physical contact. Touching an object can cause a discharge of electrostatic energy— electronic components, it can damage or destroy those components. In some cases, damage is instantaneous and an immediate malfunction occurs. However, symptoms are not always immediate—performance may be marginal or seemingly normal for an indefinite period of time, followed by a sudden failure.
To eliminate potential ESD damage, review the following guidelines:
Handle boards by metal shields—taking care not to touch electronic
Wear grounded wrist or foot straps, ESD shoes or heel grounders to
