INTRODUCTION

The DP6000 is a multi-purpose, easy to use digital process meter ideal for level, flow rate, temperature, or pressure transmitter applications. It accepts current and voltage signals (e.g. 4-20 mA, 0-10 V). Three of the front panel buttons can be customprogrammed for a specific operation. The analog input can be scaled to display the process in two different scales; for example the main display could indicate level in feet and the second display could indicate the volume in gallons.

The basic model includes an isolated 24 VDC transmitter power supply that can be used to power the input transmitter or other devices. An additional isolated 24 VDC power supply is included with the 4-20 mA output option. A digital input is standard.

A fully loaded DP6000 meter has the following: four SPDT relays, 4-20 mA output, and two 24 VDC power supplies. The DP6000 capabilities may be enhanced by adding the following external expansion modules: four SPST relays (creating an eight-relay process meter), two digital I/O modules with four inputs and four outputs each, and USB, RS-232 or RS-485 communication adapters.

The eight relays can be used for alarm indication or process control applications, such as pump alternation control. The 4-20 mA isolated output, Modbus RTU serial communications, and digital I/O options make the DP6000 an excellent addition to any system.

Switching Inductive Loads

The use of suppressors (snubbers) is strongly recommended when switching inductive loads to prevent disrupting the microprocessor’s operation. The suppressors also prolong the life of the relay contacts. Suppression can be obtained with resistor-capacitor (RC) networks assembled by the user or purchased as complete assemblies. Refer to the following circuits for RC network assembly and installation:

Figure 13. AC and DC Loads Protection

Choose R and C as follows: R: 0.5 to 1 Ω for each volt across the contacts C: 0.5 to 1 µF for each amp through closed contacts

Notes:

1. Use capacitors rated for 250 VAC.

2. RC networks may affect load release time of solenoid loads. Check to confirm proper operation.

3. Install the RC network at the meter's relay screw terminals. An RC network may also be installed across the load. Experiment for best results.

Use a diode with a reverse breakdown voltage two to three times the circuit voltage and forward current at least as large as the load current.

Interlock Relay Feature

As the name implies, the interlock relay feature reassigns one, or more, alarm/control relays for use as interlock relay(s). Interlock contact(s) are wired to digital input(s) and trigger the interlock relay. This feature is enabled by configuring the relay, and relative digital input(s) (see page

65). In one example, dry interlock contacts are connected in series to

one digital input which will be used to force on (energize) the assigned interlock power relay when all interlock contacts are closed (safe). The interlock relay front panel LED flashes when locked out. The interlock relay would be wired in-series with the load (N/O contact). See below.

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

Programming the Meter (prog)

It is very important to read the following information, before proceeding to program the meter:

 The meter is factory calibrated prior to shipment to read in

milliamps and volts depending on the input selection. The calibration equipment is certified to NIST standards.

 Use the Scale menu to scale the process input (e.g. 4-20 mA). A

calibrated signal source is not needed to scale the meter.

 Use the Calibrate menu to apply a signal from a calibrator or a

flowmeter.

 The DP6000 is a single input meter with dual-scale capability.

The Program menu contains the Scale and the Calibrate menus.

Note: The Scale and Calibrate functions are exclusive of each other. The meter uses the last function programmed. Only one of these methods can be employed at a time. The Scale and Calibrate functions can use up to 32 points (default is 2). The number of points should be set in the Advanced menu under the Multi-Point Linearization (Linear) menu selection prior to scaling and calibration of the meter, see page 77 for details.

If the dual-scale level feature is selected in the Setup menu, the Scale 1 and Scale 2 menus are enabled for PV1 & PV2 respectively.

The process input may be calibrated or scaled to any display value within the range of the meter.

Program Menu for Single Scale Process

Program Menu for Dual-Scale Level Applications

Additional parameters, not needed for most applications, are programmed in the Advanced Features menu; see Advanced Features Menu, page 70.

Page 41

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

Multi-Point Calibration & Scaling

The meter is set up at the factory for 2-point linear calibration. The number of points for multi-point calibration/scaling is set up in the Advanced Features menu. Up to 32 linearization points may be selected for PV1 and up to 8 linearization points may be selected for PV2. See page 77 for details.

DP6000-SOFT Software

The meter can also be programmed using the PC-based DP6000-SOFT software available for free download at www.omega.com.

Data logging for one meter at a time is available with DP6000-SOFT software. More advanced data acquisition may be accomplished by using any Modbus RTU compliant software.

In order to program the meter using a computer, the meter must be connected using a USB, RS-232, or RS-485 serial adapter, see ORDERING INFORMATION on page 9 for details.

Scaling the Meter (SCALE)

The process input (4-20 mA, 10 VDC) can be scaled to display the process variable in engineering units.

A signal source is not needed to scale the meter; simply program the inputs and corresponding display values.

For instructions on how to program

numeric values see Setting Numeric

Values, page 35.

Page 42

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

Dual-Scale for Level Application

The analog input can be displayed in two different scales, by enabling the dual-scale feature (d-SCAL) in the Setup-Input menu, see page 36.

Scaling the Input for PV2 (SCAL 2)

Page 43

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

Error Message (Error)

An error message indicates that the calibration or scaling process was not successful.

After the error message is displayed, the meter reverts to the input prior to the failure during calibration or scaling and to input 1 during internal calibration, allowing the appropriate input signal to be applied or programmed.

The error message might be caused by any of the following conditions:

1. Input signal is not connected to the proper terminals or it is connected backwards.

2. Wrong signal selection in Setup menu.

3. Minimum input span requirements not maintained.

4. Input 1 signal inadvertently applied to calibrate input 2.

Minimum Input Span

The minimum input span is the minimum difference between input 1 and input 2 signals required to complete the calibration or scaling of the meter.

Page 49

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

Programming Set and Reset Points

High alarm indication: program set point above reset point. Low alarm indication: program set point below reset point. The deadband is determined by the difference between set and reset

points. Minimum deadband is one display count. If the set and reset points are programmed with the same value, the relay will reset one count below the set point.

Note: Changes are not saved until the reset point has been accepted.

Setting Fail-Safe Operation

In fail-safe mode of operation, the relay coil is energized when the process variable is within safe limits and the relay coil is de-energized when the alarm condition exists. The fail-safe operation is set independently for each relay. Select on to enable or select off to disable fail-safe operation.

Programming Time Delay

The On and Off time delays may be programmed for each relay between 0 and 999.9 seconds. The relays will transfer only after the condition has been maintained for the corresponding time delay.

The On time delay is associated with the set point. The Off time delay is associated with the reset point.

Relay Action for Loss of 4-20 mA Input (Loop Break)

The loop break feature is associated with the 4-20 mA input. Each relay may be programmed to go to one of the following conditions when the meter detects the loss of the input signal (i.e. < 0.005 mA):

1. Turn On (Go to alarm condition)

2. Turn Off (Go to non-alarm condition)

3. Ignore (Processed as a low signal condition)

Note: This is not a true loop break condition; if the signal drops below

0.005 mA, it is interpreted as a “loop break” condition.

On time delay timer resets and the relay does not change state. The

same principle applies to the

Relay Operation Details

Overview

The relay capabilities of the meter expand its usefulness beyond simple indication to provide users with alarm and control functions. These capabilities include front panel alarm status LEDs as well as either 2 or 4 optional internal relays and/or 4 external relays expansion module. Typical applications include high or low temperature, level, pressure or flow alarms, control applications such as simple on/off pump control, and pump alternation control for up to 8 pumps. There are four basic ways the relays can be used:

1. High or Low Alarms with Latching or Non-Latching Relays

2. Simple On/Off Control with 100% Adjustable Deadband

3. Sampling (Based on Time)

4. Pump Alternation Control for up to 8 Pumps

Relays Auto Initialization

When power is applied to the meter, the front panel LEDs and alarm relays will reflect the state of the input to the meter. The following table indicates how the alarm LEDs and relays will react on power-up based on the set and reset points:

Alarm # HI or LO

Front Panel LEDs

The LEDs on the front panel provide status indication for the following:

LED Status LED Status

1 Alarm 1 5 Alarm 5 2 Alarm 2 6 Alarm 6 3 Alarm 3 7 Alarm 7 4 Alarm 4 8 Alarm 8

The meter is supplied with four alarm points that include front panel LEDs to indicate alarm conditions. This standard feature is particularly useful for alarm applications that require visual-only indication. The LEDs are controlled by the set and reset points programmed by the user. When the display reaches a set point for a high or low alarm, the corresponding alarm LED will turn on. When the display returns to the reset point the LED will go off. The front panel LEDs respond differently for latching and non-latching relays.

For non-latching relays, the LED is always off during normal condition and always on during alarm condition, regardless of the state of the relay (e.g. Relay acknowledged after alarm condition).

For latching relays, the alarm LEDs reflect the status of the relays, regardless of the alarm condition. The following tables illustrate how the alarm LEDs function in relation to the relays and the acknowledge button (Default: F3 key assigned to ACK):

Latching and Non-Latching Relay Operation

The relays can be set up for latching (manual reset) or non-latching (automatic reset) operation.

Relay terminology for following tables Terminology Relay Condition

On Alarm (Tripped) Off Normal (Reset)

Ack Acknowledged

The On and Off terminology does not refer to the status of the relay’s coil, which depends on the fail-safe mode selected.

Warning!

In latching relay mode, latched relays will reset (unlatch) when power is cycled.

Page 60

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

Non-Latching Relay (Auto)

Automatic reset only

Condition LED Relay

Normal Off Off Alarm On On Ack (No effect) On On Normal Off Off

In this application, the meter is set up for automatic reset (non-latching relay). Acknowledging the alarm while it is still present has no effect on either the LED or the relay. When the alarm finally goes away, the relay automatically resets and the LED also goes off.

Non-Latching Relay (A-man)

Automatic + manual reset at any time

Condition LED Relay

Normal Off Off Alarm On On Normal Off Off Next Alarm On On Ack On Off Normal Off Off

In this application, the meter is set up for automatic and manual reset at any time (non-latching relay). The LED and the relay automatically reset when the meter returns to the normal condition. The next time an alarm occurs, the operator acknowledges the alarm manually while the alarm condition still exists. This causes the relay to reset, but the LED stays on until the meter returns to the normal condition.

Latching Relay (LatcH)

Manual reset any time

Condition LED Relay

Normal Off Off Alarm On On

Ack Off Off In this application, the meter is set up for manual reset at any time. Acknowledging the alarm even if the alarm condition is still present resets the relay and turns off the LED.

Latching Relay (Lt-Clr)

Manual reset only after alarm condition has cleared

Condition LED Relay

Normal Off Off Alarm On On Ack (No effect) On On Normal On On

Ack Off Off In this application, the meter is set up for manual reset only after the signal passes the reset point (alarm condition has cleared). Acknowledging the alarm while it is still present has no effect on either the LED or the relay. When the alarm is acknowledged after it returns to the normal state, the LED and the relay go off. Notice that the LED remains on, even after the meter returns to the normal condition. This is because, for latching relays, the alarm LED reflects the status of the relay, regardless of the alarm condition.

Acknowledging Relays

There are two ways to acknowledge relays programmed for manual reset:

1. Via the programmable front panel function keys F1-F3 (Default: F3 assigned to ACK).

2. Remotely via a normally open pushbutton wired across one of the digital inputs and the +5 V terminals on the digital I/O modules, or using the F4 digital input, which is triggered with a contact closure to COM, or with an active low signal (see page

25).

When the ACK button or the assigned digital input is closed, all relays programmed for manual reset are acknowledged.

Pump Alternation Control Applications (Altern)

For pump control applications where two or more similar pumps are used to control the level of a tank or a well, it is desirable to have all the pumps operate alternately. This prevents excessive wear and overheating of one pump over the lack of use of the other pumps.

Up to 8 relays can be set up to alternate every time an on/off pump cycle is completed. The set points and reset points can be programmed, so that the first pump on is the first pump off.

Application #1: Pump Alternation Using Relays 1 & 2

1. Relays 1 and 2 are set up for pump alternation.

2. Relays 3 and 4 are set up for low and high alarm indication.

Set and Reset Point Programming

Relay Set Point Reset Point Function

Pump Alternation Operation

1. Pump #1 turns on when level reaches 30.000, when level drops below 10.000, pump #1 turns off.

2. The next time level reaches 30.000, pump #2 turns on, when level drops below 10.000, pump #2 turns off.

3. If the level doesn’t reach 35.000, pump #1 and pump #2 will be operating alternately.

4. If pump #1 cannot keep the level below 35.000, pump #2 will turn on at 35.000, then as the level drops to10.000, pump #1 turns off, pump #2 is still running and shuts off below 5.000.

5. Notice that with the set and reset points of pump #2 outside the range of pump #1, the first pump on is the first pump to go off. This is true for up to 8 alternating pumps, if setup accordingly.

6. Relay #3 will go into alarm if the level drops below 4.000 and relay #4 will go into alarm if the level exceeds 40.000.

7. Adding the 4 external relays, expansion module allows using the 4 SPDT internal relays for pump alternation and the 4 SPST external relays for high, high-high, low, and low-low alarm indication.

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

Application #2: Pump Alternation Using Relays 3 & 4

1. Relays 1 and 2 are set up for low and high alarm indication.

2. Relays 3 and 4 are set up for pump alternation.

The following graphics provide a visual representation of a typical pump alternation application with high and low alarm monitoring:

1. Relay #4 turns the main pump on at 6000 gallons and turns it off at 1000 gallons.

2. With the Pump Alternation feature activated, the next time the level reaches 6000 gallons, relay #3 transfers and starts the backup pump.

Page 64

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

3. If the backup pump is not able to keep up, and the level reaches 7000 gallons, relay #4 transfers and starts the main pump as well.

4. Relay #2 trips the High Level Alarm at 7500 gallons and resets at 6900 gallons.

5. Relay #1 trips the Low Level Alarm at 495 gallons and resets at 750 gallons.

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual Interlock Relay Operation Example

Relays 1 & 2 are configured to energize (their front panel LEDs are off) when SW1 & SW2 switches (above) are closed. If the contacts to these digital inputs are opened, the corresponding front panel LEDs flash indicating this condition. The processes being controlled by the interlock relay will stop, and will re-start only after the interlock relay is reactivated by the digital inputs (switches).

Note: If multiple digital inputs are assigned to the same relay, then the corresponding logic is (AND) – i.e. both switches must be closed to trip the relay.

Scaling the 4-20 mA Analog Output (Aout)

The 4-20 mA analog output can be scaled to provide a 4-20 mA signal for any display range selected.

No equipment is needed to scale the analog output; simply program the display values to the corresponding mA output signal.

The

Analog Output menu is used to program the 4-20 mA output based

on display values.

Noise Filter (filter)

The noise filter is available for unusually noisy signals that cause an unstable process variable display. The noise filter averages the input signal over a certain period. The filter level determines the length of time over which the signal is averaged. The filter level can be set between 2 and 199. The higher the filter level, the longer the averaging time and so the longer it takes the display to settle to its final value. Setting the filter level to zero disables the filter function.

Noise Filter Bypass (bypass)

The noise filter bypass changes the behavior of the meter so that small variations in the signal are filtered out but large abrupt changes in the input signal are displayed immediately. The bypass value determines the minimum amount of signal change to be displayed immediately. All signal changes smaller than the bypass value are filtered or averaged by the meter. The noise filter bypass may be set between 0.1 and

99.9% of full scale.

Rounding Feature (round)

The rounding feature is used to give the user a steadier display with fluctuating signals. Rounding is used in addition to the filter function.

Rounding causes the display to round to the nearest value according the rounding selected. See examples below:

Modbus RTU Serial Communications (serial)

The meter is equipped with serial communications capability as a standard feature using Modbus RTU Serial Communication Protocol.

To communicate with a computer or other data terminal equipment, an RS-232, RS-485, or USB adapter (DPA8008) option is required; see

Ordering Information on page 9 for details.

Do not connect any equipment other than OMEGA’s expansion modules, cables, or meters to the RJ45

Warning!

M-LINK connector. Otherwise damage will occur to the equipment and the meter.

Note: More detailed instructions are provided with each optional serial

communications adapter.

Note: Refer to the Modbus

for details.

When using more than one meter in a multi-drop mode, each meter must be provided with its own unique address. The meter address (Slave ID) may be programmed between 1 and 247. The transmit delay may be set between 0 and 199 ms. The parity can be set to even, odd, or none with 1 or 2 stop bits.

The DP6000 can also be connected to another DP6000 with a special DPA1200 cable, allowing the user to copy all the settings from one meter to another, using the

Copy function.

Select Menu (SElect)

The Select menu is used to select the signal input conditioner applied to the input (linear, square root, programmable exponent, or round horizontal tank), low-flow cutoff, and analog output programming. The multi-point linearization is part of the linear function selection.

Signal Input Conditioning (Functn)

The Function menu is used to select the signal input conditioner applied to the input: linear, square root, programmable exponent, or round horizontal tank volume calculation. The multi-point linearization is part of the linear function selection.

Meters are set up at the factory for linear function with 2-point linearization. The linear function provides a display that is linear with respect to the input signal.

Page 77

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

Square Root Linearization (Square)

The square root function can be used to linearize the signal from a differential pressure transmitter and display flow rate in engineering units.

Programmable Exponent Linearization (Prog E)

The programmable exponent can be used to linearize the signal from level transmitters in open-channel flow applications using weirs and flumes.

Multi-Point Linearization (Linear)

Meters are set up at the factory for linear function with 2-point linearization. Up to 32 linearization points can be selected for PV1 under the linear function. The multi-point linearization can be used to linearize the display for non-linear signals such as those from level transmitters used to measure volume in odd-shaped tanks or to convert level to flow using weirs and flumes with complex exponent.

If the dual-scale level feature has been selected, the menus for PV1 & PV2 are enabled. PV2 can be programmed with up to 8 linearization points.

Page 78

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

Round Horizontal Tank Linearization (rHt)

This function automatically calculates the volume in a round horizontal tank with flat ends.

Set the display for the desired decimal point and engineering units before entering the round horizontal tank function. Select units, inches or cm for the tank dimensions. Enter the diameter and the length in inches and the results are calculated automatically in US gallons.

The meter can be scaled to display the volume in any engineering unit.

Note: After Scale is displayed continue pressing the Enter button until

the meter completes the scaling of the input and display values.

Changing the Volume from Gallons to Liters

In the above graphic, entering the 48" for the diameter and 120" for the length of the round horizontal tank, the meter automatically calculates that the volume of the tank is 940.02 gallons.

1. Convert gallons to liters

1 US gallon = 3.7854 L

940.02 gal = 3558.4 L

2. Go to the

3. Go to the

Setup menu and change the decimal point to 1 decimal. Program – Scale menu and press Enter until dis 2 is

shown on the main display.

4. Press Enter and change the display 2 value to 3558.4.

5. The meter is now displaying the volume in liters.

Note: The display can be scaled to display the volume in any

engineering units.

Page 79

DP6000 Process Meter Instruction Manual

Low-Flow Cutoff (CutofF)

The low-flow cutoff feature allows the meter to be programmed so that the often-unsteady output from a differential pressure transmitter, at low flow rates, always displays zero on the meter.

The cutoff value may be programmed from 0 to 999999. The meter will display zero below the cutoff value. Programming the cutoff value to zero disables the cutoff feature.

Analog Output Programming (AoutPr)

The Analog Output Programming menu is used to program the behavior of the 4-20 mA output. The following parameters and functions are programmed in this menu:

1. Source: Source for generating the 4-20 mA output (e.g. PV)

2. Overrange: Analog output value with display in overrange condition

3. Underrange: Analog output value with display in underrange condition

4. Break: Analog output value when loop break is detected

5. Max: Maximum analog output value allowed regardless of input

6. Min: Minimum analog output value allowed regardless of input

7. Calibrate: Calibrate the internal 4-20 mA source reference used to scale the 4-20 mA output

Analog Output Source

The source for generating the 4-20 mA output may be assigned to the process variable, maximum or minimum value reached by the process, one of the set points, or the Modbus PV input.

Analog Output Calibration

To perform the analog output calibration it is recommended to use a milliamp meter with a resolution of at least 0.1 µA to measure the output current. The values saved internally during this procedure are used for scaling the 4-20 mA output in the

Setup menu.

The graphic above shows the calibration of the current input. The voltage input is calibrated in a similar way.

Tips:

 Low and high input signals can be any valid values within the

range of the meter.

 Observe minimum input span requirements between input 1

and input 2.

 Low input should be less than high input signal.

Meter Copy Function (Copy)

The Copy function is used to copy (or clone) all the settings from one meter to other meters requiring exactly the same setup and programming ( etc.).

Warning!

i.e. type of input, scaling, decimal point, filter, bypass,

Only the DPA1200 meter copy cable must be used for meter-to-meter interfacing. The DPA1200 is a special eight-conductor flat cable with two wires swapped.

Using standard CAT5 or other cable will cause damage to both meters.

Copy Function Requirements

To successfully copy settings from one meter to another, both meters must have the same software version and baud rate settings. See Determining Software Version, page 88, for instructions.

METER OPERATION

The meter is capable of accepting current (0-20 mA, 4-20 mA) and voltage signals (0-5 V, 1-5 V, 0-10 V, signals in engineering units from -99999 to 999999 ( signal could be displayed as -50.000 to 50.000).

The dual-line display can be customized by the user to operate in such a way as to satisfy a specific application. Typically the main display is used for the process variable; while the second display is used for engineering units, custom legend, or set point indication.

The analog input can be scaled to display the process in two different scales; for example: with indicate level in feet and the second display could indicate the volume in gallons.

Additionally the meter can be set up to display the analog input on the main display and the Modbus input on the second display. The relays and analog output can be programmed to operate from the Modbus PV input.
