3 - INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
3.1 GENERAL ADVICE
† The precautions described below must be taken when connecting the meter, in order for the
equipment to comply with the European directives concerning:
- Electromagnetic compatibility: 89/336 CEE
- Low voltage supply safety rules: LVD 73/23 CEE amended by EEC Directive 93/68.
If the DP31 is used other than as specified, then the protection provided by the equipment may be
compromised.
3.2 INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Avoid placing the meter near:
- High power or relay cut-off or transforming devices.
- Thyristor power units, motors, etc.
As a rule, the instrument panel should be located in a separate part of the cabinet from power and relay controls.
Avoid placing the meter above equipment giving off heat.
If the temperature inside the cabinet exceeds 55°C, install a filtered air ventilation system.
3.3 WIRING RECOMMENDATIONS
3.3.1 Power supply connection
The DP31 is designed to be permanently connected to the AC power supply. Consequently, the user should provide
a switch or similar means of shutting off the power which should be located in the cabinet near the unit.
It is also advisable to fit an identifiable safety fuse near the meter: rating 250 mA 230 Vac.
Where several units are to be fitted in the same cabinet, power connections should be as direct as possible: use a
star pattern for wiring in order to avoid daisy-chaining from one unit to another.
Do not power the unit with the same line used for powering contactors or relay coils.
If the power supply network suffers from disturbances (in particular due to high power switching via contactors or
thyristor regulators), the instrument section should be run on an isolating transformer with a grounded screen.
3.3.2 Grounding
The grounding terminals on all units must be linked together in a star at a single point (the facility's metal earth
ground) by means of a conductor of equal section to that of the power cables. In order to avoid interference due to
the common mode, it is vital to ensure that the grounds of all equipment linked to the unit's inputs and outputs are
all at equal potential.
3
Page 7
3.3.3 Connecting the inputs and outputs
The wires connected to the measurement inputs and outputs (analog, digital communication) must be physically
separated from power cables and cables used for relays or contactor coils, along their entire length.
Use wiring gutters or separate or divided wiring ducts.
Any one cable must only carry signals of exactly the same type.
Use sheathed cables with stranded wire for connections.
† The protective sheathing MUST be grounded via a single point, preferably on the earth ground
terminal side of the indicator.
3.4 CONNECTION
The DP31 has two detachable terminal strips (1 & 2) connected to the base card. Two additional terminal strips (3
& 4) are present on the -R, -AR, and -CR models. The screw terminals have a clamping capacity of 2.5 mm².
3.4.1 Selecting transmitter and measuring bridge power supplies
On terminal 7 there is a power supply available for:
- Energizing transmitters. The supply is 24 V at a maximum of 30 mA ; or
- A measuring bridge which may be energized between 4.5 and 10.2 V at a maximum of 30 mA.
If the measurement input requires the use of one of these power supplies, it must be selected prior to connection.
To perform this operation:
- Remove terminal strip 2
- Set the diverter switch on the base card as shown in figure 4.

5 - CONFIGURATION
The DP31 unit may be configured to suit the characteristics and requirements of a given application
by the choice and definition of the input and output parameters. The configuration process is
structured around menus (input-output) consisting of several successive stages described in the
various flowcharts.
† - Modifying the configuration is only possible by entering code 15. Otherwise, it is only
possible to view the existing configuration.
- For safety reasons, the configuration modification procedure may not be exited until all
phases of the menu to be modified have been run through and confirmed.
- Certain parameters and flowchart steps will not be displayed during the procedure; this is
due to either:
. The absence of certain functions (input contacts, analog output, etc.), depending on the
DP31 model;
. A previously confirmed choice in the menu concerning certain parameters and
functions.
5.1 CONFIGURING MEASUREMENT INPUTS
The DP31 unit has two means of reading data which allows the following measurements to be made:
- A single process variable, which reading must be made via channel 1: SinGL input mode.
- Differential measurement (channel 1 – channel 2) of a process variable: diFF input mode. I n this
case, both channels must be fitted with identical sensors or types of input signal. The chosen
configuration is automatically assigned to both channels.
- Two distinct process variables: temperature (channel 1), and relative humidity (channel 2).
† Follow one of the five flowcharts describing the configuration procedure, depending on the
sensor type or input signal, and the process variable to be measured. To access the
configuration procedure, select the input menu and enter code 15.

§§ STEP 7 : Setting the scale limits for the input signal
- Parameter [Lo] : Low scale.
- Parameter [Hi]: High scale.
Input adjustment range:
- Lin : -10000 to +20000 points
- root : 0 to 20000 points.
- Temperature sensors: within the specific limits of each type of sensor (see
section 8.1.3).
§§ STEP 8 : If the input type [USEr] has been confirmed in step 4 there is a selection to be
made between tAbLE and tArE modes: parameter [in]
- [tAbLE] mode : with single and differential measurements, it is possible
to linearize the input signal in 25 stages.
† Linearization is only possible with increasing and decreasing monotonic functions. This
consists of assigning a value for each breakpoint:
- Input signal value in mA, mV or V within the limits set in step 3.
- Number of points represented on-screen (from –10000 to +20000) corresponding to
the resolution set in step 5.

- Assign a value to each breakpoint corresponding to the segments selected.
So : input value in mA, mV or V for point O. no. : number of display points corresponding to the input value So
Identical procedure for points S1, n1 to Sx, nx.
As of the tenth breakpoint, the symbols displayed become:
- 10, 11, 12 ... for the input values
- 10., 11., 12. ... for the corresponding display points.
- [tArE] mode: the changes in the input signal received on channel 1 may be
linearized in 25 stages.
The measurement received via channel 1 is recorded as a dip value by the operator when it
successively sets and confirms the co rresponding numbers of display points: n0, n1, n2, …
† This mode cannot be used for differential measurements. Display values are only taken
into account when they are altered by pressing keys q and p. This allows the indicator to be
reset to a calibration setting, with no need to change the values already memorized.
§§ STEP 9 : Setting the shifted measurement signal threshold for line break detection:
parameter [tb]
- 4/20 mA signal : 0 to 4 mA
- 10/50 mV signal : 0 to 10 mV
§§ STEP 10 : Selecting the position of the measurement protection device, for the
detection of sensor failure and breaks in the measuring wire: parameter [in]
?S.Lo : low protection ð measurement at minimum on scale
?S.Hi : high protection ð measurement at maximum on scale.
§§ STEP 11 : Setting the measurement offset
- parameter oF : ± 500 display points
With differential measurements, the offset is applied to the difference displayed
(channel 1 – channel 2)
§§ STEP 12 : Setting the measurement software filter
- parameter Fi : 0 to 20
§§ STEP 13 : Setting the totalizing time
- Only used with single measurements (channel 1)
- parameter dt : 0 to 99999 seconds
The time unit is linked to the choice of physical unit made in step 6. The unit is
generally the second, except where set to:
- .n ð minute
- .h ð hour

¡ CONFIGURING INPUT CONTACTS C1 - C2
The DP31 and DP31-R are not fitted with input contacts; this configuration menu does not therefore
appear on this model.
- The configured function will be activated when the corresponding contact closes.
§STEP 1 : Assign contact C1
- parameter [C1]
§ STEP 2 : Assign contact C2
- parameter [C2]
The functions which may be set for each input are:
? not : contact not used. ? b-diS : Holds the displayed value
With the inputs configured for relative humidity and temperature, the measurement of each process
variable is frozen, regardless of display mode (touCH or toGLE)
† With this function active, all internal calculations, alarms and the analog output remain
operational. The unit still uses the updated measurement value, with only the display being
held.
? b-AoP : Holds the analog re-transmission at its current value.
? b-cEy : Disables the keypad: the keys do not respond to being pressed, and none of
the menus are accessible.
? r-ALr : Resets any latched alarms (if the measurement value has returned below the
relevant threshold).
? r-dL : Resets the minimum measurement stored in memory.
? r-dH : Resets the maximum measurement stored in memory.
? r-tot : Resets the total and mean values (only with sinGL process input).

¡ CONFIGURING THE ANALOG OUTPUT, DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS AND ALARMS
To gain access to the output configuration menu:
- Select the outPt menu - see Section 4.3
- Enter code 15 to alter the configuration.
Depending on the DP31 model used, the following menus will appear:
- on DP31 and DP31-R: configure alarm relays and thresholds.
- on DP31-AR: configure the analog output, then the alarm relays and thresholds.
- on DP31-CR: configure digital communications, then the alarm relays and thresholds.
5.3.1 Configuring the analog output on DP31-AR
This output allows the analog re-transmission (current or voltage) of the measurement displayed.
§STEP 1 : Select the process variable to be transmitted where the measurement
inputs are configured for relative humidity and temperature
- parameter [oA]
? rH : relative humidity measurement
? t° : temperature measurement
§§ STEP 2 : Select output signal
- parameter [oA]
? Current: 0/20 mA - 4/20 mA - max. load: 750 Ω? Voltage: 0/10 V - min. load: 1000 Ω
§STEP 3 : Set range of measurements to be transmitted
This step involves calibrating the output for all or part of the input measurement range (zoom
effect). There must be a minimum of 200 points, regardless of the resolution chosen (200 -
20.0 - 2.00 - 0.200 - 0.0200).
- parameter [oL] : Low scale
- parameter [oH] : High scale
† The number values for the low and the high limits of the scale must fall within the input
measurement ranges defined by the types of sensor used (thermocouples, resistance
probes, etc.) and the mode selected (USEr, Lin, root).
They may include the "minus" sign - (+ being implicit).
The values for the low and high of the scale may be inverted. In this case, the analog
output signal will follow the inverse of the measurement input signal.
37
Page 41
5.3.2 Configuring digital communications (on DP31-CR)
All DP31 models are fitted with four fully configurable alarm thresholds. The assignment and
operation of the alarm relays (1 on DP31 base unit, 4 on the other models), are also configurable.
† LED's Y1, Y2, Y3 & Y4 indicate that the set thresholds have been exceeded, but do not
show the alarm relay status. With relative humidity and temperature inputs, thresholds Y1
& Y2 are assigned to the relative humidity measurements, Y3 & Y4 being assigned to the
temperature measurements.
The thresholds and relays are identified by the following messages:
During each step in the configuration procedure, the relevant thresholds and settings (hysteresis,
time delay, etc.) are each allocated an identification number matching the appropriate threshold
(e.g. hysteresis threshold Y1 ð H1 ; time delay threshold Y3 ð t3...).
§STEP 1 : Access to the threshold settings:
- parameters [Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4]
? bL_on : threshold blocked ð in the SET.P menu, it will only be possible to read the
relevant threshold value.
? bL_oF : threshold not blocked ð The SET.P menu may be used to alter the threshold
value.
§STEP 2 : Assign relay r1
- parameter [r1]
? no SEc : r1 is assigned to the alarm output for threshold 1.
? SECur : r1 is assigned to the alarm output in the event of sensor failure or breaks in the
measurement wire.
† In SECUr mode, the operational status of relay r1 is not displayed.
38
Page 42
§STEP 3 : Select alarm relay outputs for threshold Y1
- parameter [Y1]
Selection requires noSEC to be set in step 2.
? r1 : relay r1 is independent and assigned to threshold Y1. Relay r3 is automatically
assigned to threshold Y3.
? r1- r3 : relays r1 & r3 are together assigned to threshold Y1. In this case, threshold Y3
? r2 : relay r2 is independent, and assigned to threshold 2. Relay r4 is automatically
assigned to threshold 4.
? r2- r4 : relays r2 & r4 are together assigned to threshold Y2. In this case, threshold Y4
has no alarm output relay
§ STEP 5 : Select alarm threshold type
- parameters [Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4]
? AL-Lo : alarm status triggered when measurement value falls below lower limit.
?? AL-Hi : alarm status triggered when measurement value exceeds upper limit.
? bnd Lo : alarm status activated while measurement values are within a band surrounding
the threshold.
? bnd Hi : alarm status activated while measurement values are outside a band surrounding
the threshold.
§ STEP 6 : Select alarm relay operating mode
- parameters [r1, r2, r3, r4] The alarm relays triggered by the crossing of their respective thresholds can be configured to
operate in the following modes:
? on-AL : relay in alarm status when active (normal protection)
? oF-AL : relay in alarm status when idle (positive protection)
† Where relay r1 is assigned to a sensor failure protection role (see step 2), it is locked in
normal protection mode.
Where relays r1 and r3 are both assigned to threshold 1 (see step 3), they operate
identically, according to the mode defined for relay r1.
The same applies to relays r2 and r4 when assigned to threshold 2.

§STEP 7 : Latched alarms:
- parameters [Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4]
Each alarm set for thresholds Y1 to Y4 may be latched individually. Latching allows the relay to
be maintained in a state of alarm, with the corresponding indication on the display panel, after
the measurement has returned to a normal level (measurement < upper threshold or
measurement > lower threshold). The state of alarm is maintained until the alarm is reset (even
if the unit's power supply is interrupted).
? MEM : alarm latched
? noMEM : alarm not latched
§ STEP 8 : Set alarm threshold hysteresis:
- parameters [H1, H2, H3, H4]
- Adjustable from 0 to 200 display points.
§ STEP 9 : Adjust alarm band:
- parameters [b1, b2, b3, b4]
- Applicable where the alarm is configured in step 5 as low band (bnd Lo) or high band (bnd
Hi). The band may be adjusted to cover from 0 to 250 display points.
- The value set corresponds to a symmetrical band bracketing the alarm threshold (see step 6).
§STEP 10 : Set time delay before alarm response after exceeding set threshold:
- parameters [t1, t2, t3, t4]
- Adjustable from 0 to 10 sec.
42
Page 46
6 - OPERATION
6.1 SELF TEST SEQUENCE
Wire the DP31 unit connected according to one of the diagrams in section 3.4. After powering up
the meter a few seconds is required in order to initialize the meter. During this time, the messa ges
init, followed by end, are displayed and:
- The minimum, maximum, mean and totalling values are reset to zero.
- The analog output is set to its minimum value.
- Any alarms latched before the power supply was interrupted are immediately activated.
At the end of this initialization period, the measurement is displayed. The input signal once digitally
processed (scaling, linearization, filtering, etc.) is compared against the alarm threshold values. The
unit's various functions (measurement, alarm latching, alarm relays, signalling, sensor failure, line
break protection, analog transmission, digital communications, etc.) become operational at this
point, depending on the model and the configuration defined by the user.
6.2 ADJUSTING THE ALARM THRESHOLDS
To gain access to the threshold settings:
- Select the SET-P menu
- Enter code 5
- Press key E to scroll through the various thresholds.
The four thresholds Y1 to Y4 may then be adjusted within the limits of the measurement range
selected, provided that the configuration permits this operation for adjustment of unlocked
thresholds (see step 1 of Section 5.3.3.).
† Hysteresis, time delay and alarm band adjustments are not possible via this menu. They
are accessible in step 8, 9 and 10 of the outPt menu in Section 5.3.3. During the
adjustment phase, the alarm function remains operational (relays and display). The new
threshold value will be taken into account as soon as it is validated by pressing key E.
The LED's Y1 to Y4 light up when the set threshold is exceeded, and remain lit until the
corresponding alarm is reset (where alarms are latched). They do not indicate the status
of the relays, which may be either active or idle while in alarm mode, depending on the
configuration chosen (see step 6 of Section 5.3.3).

6.3 DISPLAYING MEASUREMENTS AND ALARM THRESHOLDS
6.3.1 Displaying and resetting the minimum and maximum measurements and alarm thresholds
- Select the SET.P menu.
- Enter "code", without entering a value.
- Press key E to scroll through variables. ? nL : lowest measurement memorized since the unit was last switched on or reset. ? nH : highest measurement memorized since the unit was last switched on or reset. ? Y1 to Y4 : values of the four alarm thresholds.
There are three options for resetting the alarms and the minimum and maximum measurements:
- By simultaneously pressing keys q and p on the keypad, while the relevant variable is displayed.
- By remote control, via one of the input contacts C1 or C2, configured for this purpose. In this
case, all the alarms in memory are reset at the same time .
- By a command from an I/O executive transmitted via the digital link.
6.3.2 Relative humidity and temperature displays
Depending on the configuration chosen (see step 6 in Section 5.1.3) the display is either:
- Alternating (toGLE mode): where the variable displayed rH/t° switches approximately every
three seconds ; or
- Static (touCH mode): one of the two variables is displayed constantly. Switching between
variables is performed by pressing and holding keys q and p.
t° measurement rH measurement
q + p q + p
6.3.3 Displaying mean and totalizing functions
These functions are available when:
- the input is configured as otHER SinGL (channel 1) ; and
- the totalizing period is not set to zero: parameter dt > 0 (see step 13 in Section 5.1.1)
Totalizing begins every time the unit is switched on or the totalizing function is reset. Totalizing
stops as soon as the time set by the dt parameter has elapsed.
The mean value is continuously updated. This value (parameter Au) corresponds to the average of
the measurement values obtained after totalizing begins, up to the end of the allotted totalizing
period.
45
Page 49
To display the Mean and Total values from the measurement display:
- simultaneously press keys q and p
ð the mean value [Au] is displayed
- next, press key E
ð the totalizing value is displayed as a mantissa (on the five-digit display) and an exponent
(power of ten on the two -digit display).
Example:
- The total and mean values displayed onscreen are updated every second.

6.4 ANALOG RE-TRANSMISSION OF MEASUREMENTS
On the DP31-AR, the measurement displayed on-screen is also re-transmitted as an output signal
isolated from the measurement input. The signal may be a 0/20 mA or 4/20 mA current, or a 0/10 V
voltage (see configuration Section 5.3.1).

6.6 DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS
The DP31-CR is fitted with a digital communications system, allowing an I/O executive to be used to
read measurements, adjust thresholds, reset alarms, configure the instrument, etc.
6.6.1 Phy sical connection and communications protocol
§RS-485 : EIA standard, differential signals, with units connected in parallel by means of a two -
wire cable (up to 32 DP31-CR units with no repeater).
To ensure correct polarity when cabling the RS-485 network, the communications card is fitted
with 301 kΩ resistors linking lines A and B to the +5 V and 0 V terminals.
§Communications protocol: MODBUS/J.BUS, in slave mode - binary code (RTU).
- 8 bit characters with 1 start bit, 1 stop bit and no parity.
- Each unit must be identified by means of a slave address from 1 to 63 (see Section 5.3.2).
- Instruction codes:
3 or 4 : read n words
6 : write 1 word
16 : write n words (maximum 10 consecutive words).
Any decimals contained in the data will not be transmitted.
- Error codes:
1 : Unknown function code
2 : Address incorrect
3 : Incorrect data
4 : Equipment busy or not ready
6.6.2 Variable/parameter addresses and accessibility
Using the MODBUS protocol, the addresses are the same as with the J.BUS-1 protocol. The
addresses not mentioned are reserved by the system.

7 - CALIBRATION
Each DP31 unit leaving the factory complies with technical specifications, making calibration
unnecessary when first using the equipment. Nevertheless, the characteristics of the electronic
components may slowly change over time. Therefore, the input/output ports should be calibrated at
regular intervals in order to preserve the unit's technical characteristics.
The DP31 is fitted with an automatic calibration system, eliminating the need to make adjustments
inside the indicator. The syst em functions by using software correction to match internal reference
values with the external calibration signals sent to the inputs.
7.1 CONDITIONS AND EQUIPMENT REQUIRED FOR CALIBRATION
- Stable ambient temperature of 23°C ±1°C
- Prior to calibration, the indicator should be switched on for 45 minutes
- Power supply voltage at nominal service rating ±1%.
- A stable, multiple voltage power supply, accuracy-rated to within 0.01%.
- A 200,000 point digital multimeter (class A)
- Two 385 Ω resistors - 0.02%
- One 2500 Ω resistor - 0.02%
- One 100 Ω resistor - 0.02%
† For safety reasons, access to the calibration menu is protected by an internal locking pin
and a software code. This pin, located on the left side of the unit, must be set to “closed” in
order to enter the CALi menu.
After selecting this menu, code -13 must be entered in order to access the various calibration
procedures. These procedures require the input/outputs to be individually calibrated.

7.3 Calibrating the measurement inputs
Given the high degree of accuracy of the DP31 unit, eight types and levels of input are
factory-calibrated.
†Only one type of calibration by the user is necessary, depending on the type of signal used
by the application.
Both measurement inputs are calibrated simultaneously, unless 0/10 V signals are used, in which
case the calibration procedure must be performed for each channel individually.
†Prior to calibration and checking procedures, always ensure the parameters oF
(measurement offset) and Fi (measurement filter) are set to 0. If you find that they aren’t,
access the input configuration mode and set these parameters to 0.
