1 Introduction
This product is a 1/4 DIN size (96 x 96mm front) microprocessor based graphical process
controller, featuring a 160 x 80 pixel, monochrome LCD with a dual colour (red/green)
backlight. It can control process variables from a variety of sources such as temperature,
pressure, flow and level.
The operating voltage is either 100-240V at 50/60 Hz or 24V-48V AC/DC depending on the
model purchased. Optional features include a USB interface, RS485 or Ethernet
communications, profile controlling and data recording. Non-volatile memory protects against
data or configuration loss during power outages. If the unit is left un-powered, a lithium
battery powers the data recorder’s real-time clock for a minimum of one year.
The USB Interface option allows uploading or downloading instrument configuration settings
to/from a USB memory stick, for easy configuration of multiple instruments or transfer to/from
the PC configuration software. If the Data Recorder of Profiler options are fitted, recordings
and profile information can also be transferred via the memory stick.
The Data Recorder option allows the user to make recordings of the process over time.
Recordings can be transferred to a memory stick using the USB Port or downloaded using
one of the communications options.
The Profiler option allows the user to predefine up 255 segments, shared amongst up to 64
Setpoint Profiles. These control the setpoint level over time, increasing, decreasing or
holding its value as required. When combined with the real-time clock of the Data Recorder
option, the profiling capabilities are expanded to allow automatic program start at a defined
time and day.
Inputs are user configurable for thermocouple and RTD probes, as well as linear process
signal types such as mVDC, VDC or mADC. Multipoint scaling can compensate for nonlinear signals. Output options include relays, SSR drivers, triacs or linear mV/voltage
modules. These can be used for process control, alarms or retransmission of the process
variable or setpoint to external devices. Transmitter Power Supply options can provide an
unregulated 24V DC (22mA) auxiliary output voltage, or a 0 to 10VDC stabilised excitation
for external signal transmitters.
Alarm indication is standard on all instruments; up to five alarms can be defined. Alarms may
be set as process high or low, deviation (active above or below controller setpoint), band
(active both above and below setpoint), rate of input change, control loop or signal break
types. Alarm status can be indicated by lighting an LED, changing the display backlight
colour or viewing the alarm status screen. These alarms can be linked to any suitable output.
The controller can be programmed for on-off, time proportioning, or current proportioning
control implementations, depending on the output modules fitted, and feature manual or
automatic tuning of the PID parameters. A secondary control output is available when
additional output modules are fitted. Optional analogue Remote Setpoint inputs can be
included. Configuration of the major settings is made easy by a Setup Wizard that runs

tongues engage in ratchets
and instrument is clamped in
position.
Hold instrument firmly in
position (apply pressure to
bezel only)
Instruments may be mounted side-by-side in a multiple installation, but instrument to panel
moisture and dust sealing will be compromised. Allow a 20mm gap above, below and behind
the instrument for ventilation. The cut-out width (for n instruments) is:
(96n - 4) mm or (3.78n - 0.16) inches
If panel sealing must be maintained, mount each instrument into an individual cut-out with
6mm or more clearance between the edges of the holes.
Note:
The mounting clamp tongues may engage the ratchets either on the sides or the
top/bottom faces of the Instrument housing. When installing several Instruments side-byside in one cut-out, use the ratchets on the top/bottom faces.
CAUTION:
Ensure the inside of the panel remains within the instrument operating temperature
and that there is adequate airflow to prevent overheating.
CAUTION:
Do not remove the panel gasket, as this may result in inadequate clamping and
sealing of the instrument to the panel.
Once the instrument is installed in its mounting panel, it may be subsequently removed from
it’s housing, if necessary, as described in the Fitting and Removing Option Modules section.
Cleaning
Clean the front panel by washing with warm soapy water and dry immediately If the USB
option is fitted, close the USB port cover before cleaning.

4 Electrical Installation
CAUTION:
Installation should be only performed by technically competent personnel. It is the
responsibility of the installing engineer to ensure that the configuration is safe.
Local Regulations regarding electrical installation & safety must be observed (e.g.
US National Electrical Code (NEC) or Canadian Electrical Code).
Installation Considerations
Ignition transformers, arc welders, motor drives, mechanical contact relays and solenoids are
examples of devices that generate electrical noise in typical industrial environments. The
following guidelines MUST be followed to minimise their effects.
1. If the instrument is being installed in existing equipment, the wiring in the area should be
checked to ensure that good wiring practices have been followed.
2. Noise-generating devices such as those listed should be mounted in a separate
enclosure. If this is not possible, separate them from the instrument, by the largest
distance possible.
3. If possible, eliminate mechanical contact relays and replace with solid-state relays. If a
mechanical relay being powered by an output of this instrument cannot be replaced, a
solid-state relay can be used to isolate the instrument.
4. A separate isolation transformer to feed only the instrumentation should be considered.
The transformer can isolate the instrument from noise found on the AC power input.
AC Power Wiring - Neutral (for 100 to 240V AC versions)
It is good practice to ensure that the AC neutral is at or near ground (earth) potential. A
proper neutral will help ensure maximum performance from the instrument.
Wire Isolation
Four voltage levels of input and output wiring may be used with the unit:
1. Analogue input or output (for example thermocouple, RTD, VDC, mVDC or mADC)
2. Relays & Triac outputs
3. SSR Driver outputs
4. AC power
CAUTION:
The only wires that should run together are those of the same category.
If any wires need to run parallel with any other lines, maintain a minimum space of 150mm
between them.
If wires MUST cross each other, ensure they do so at 90 degrees to minimise interference.
March 2012 Electrical Installation Page 23
Use of Shielded Cable
All analogue signals must use shielded cable. This will help eliminate electrical noise
induction on the wires. Connection lead length must be kept as short as possible keeping the
wires protected by the shielding. The shield should be grounded at one end only. The
preferred grounding location is at the sensor, transmitter or transducer.
Noise Suppression at Source
Usually when good wiring practices are followed, no further noise protection is necessary.
Sometimes in severe electrical environments, the amount of noise is so great that it has to be
suppressed at source. Many manufacturers of relays, contactors etc supply 'surge
suppressors' which mount on the noise source. For those devices that do not have surge
suppressors supplied, Resistance-Capacitance (RC) networks and/or Metal Oxide Varistors
(MOV) may be added.
Inductive coils:- MOVs are recommended for transient suppression in inductive coils,
connected in parallel and as close as possible to the coil. Additional protection may be
provided by adding an RC network across the MOV.
Figure 5. Transient suppression with inductive coils
Contacts:- Arcing may occur across contacts when they open and close. This results in
electrical noise as well as damage to the contacts. Connecting a properly sized RC network
can eliminate this arc.
For circuits up to 3 amps, a combination of a 47 ohm resistor and 0.1 microfarad capacitor
(1000 volts) is recommended. For circuits from 3 to 5 amps, connect two of these in parallel.

Sensor Placement (Thermocouple or RTD)
If the temperature probe is to be subjected to corrosive or abrasive conditions, it must be
protected by an appropriate thermowell. The probe must be positioned to reflect true process
temperature:
1. In a liquid media - the most agitated area
2. In air - the best circulated area
CAUTION:
The placement of probes into pipe work some distance from the heating vessel
leads to transport delay, which results in poor control.
For a two wire RTD, a wire link should be used in place of the third wire (see the wiring
section for details). Two wire RTDs should only be used with lead lengths less than 3 metres.
Use of three wire RTDs is strongly recommended to reduce errors do to lead resistance.
Thermocouple Wire Identification Chart
The different thermocouple types are identified by their wires colour, and where possible, the
outer insulation as well. There are several standards in use throughout the world.
The table below shows the wire and sheath colours used for most
common thermocouple types. The format used in this table is:
