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.

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.

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.

2.3.6 Marker menus
Some transmitters or monitoring devices providing SafeGuard Controller inputs
also indicate special modes of operation, such as Calibration,Maintenance or Fault,
by transmitting a special <4mA or negative “Marker” value. The SafeGuard
Controller offers channel Marker menus for detecting and indicating such events
(see Figure 2.5). While active, the SafeGuard Controller displays a 6-digit ASCII
message to indicate the special event and if equipped with SG10-0167 4-20mA
output option, the SafeGuard Controller also transmits the same <4mA value

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.

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. The six ASCII engineering units previously entered are

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

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

menu item. Unity Gain resets zero offset to 0 and span gain to 1. It is useful for
returning the calibration to a known starting place. Sensor aging may be
monitored by recording zero and span readings at Unity Gain when it is new, and
again at later dates when degradation may have occurred.
To check zero calibration, apply the ZERO calibration value to the sensor and
observe the live reading. If the zero reading differs from the zero setpoint, a
calibration is needed. To calibrate zero, move the pointer to Set Zero and press

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.

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.

•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).

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
(COMM 1) and R12 (COMM 2) are located on the MAIN I/O board. These resistors
should be removed if communication wire lengths are very short (less than 25
feet), or, if the port is not at the end of the communication line.
An Auxiliary Relays piggyback PCB may be added to the I/O PCB via ribbon cable J4.
These add another form C contact set to the common A1, A2 and HORN alarms.

A System Diagnostic Mode shown in Figures 4.1 and 4.2 may be entered during
normal operation from the Setup menu. The entry menu indicates firmware
revision and offers useful routines for testing front panel LED’s, relays, serial ports
and analog I/O. It is exited manually by pressing
keys are pressed for 5 minutes. It is very important to understand that
to miss important input values while utilizing this mode and appropriate
safeguards should be in place. However, the Diagnostics Mode can prove
invaluable when testing I/O since relays and analog outputs may be stimulated
without driving inputs to precise levels.

5.1 Modbus RS-485 ports
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.

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.

SafeGuard Controllers have virtually unlimited possibilities for
configuration of options such as analog I/O, discrete relays, printer
interface and others. All SafeGuard enclosure styles require the
Main I/O PCB (Figure 3.1) but also support the mounting of
additional option PCB’s as described below:
•SafeGuard PM Panel / Rack Mount supports 2 option
positions as standard and 4 more with the SG10-0180
expansion plate (since in panel / rack mount installations
SG10-0180’s must be mounted in user space behind panels
or inside racks, multiple SG10-0180’s may be incorporated to
support the required option positions).
•SafeGuard N4 Wall Mount supports 3 option positions as
standard and 4 more with the 10-0180 expansion plate.
