DESCRIPTION
The PAX2C Temperature/Process Controller offers many features and performance capabilities to suit a wide range of applications. The PAX2C has a universal input to handle various input signals including Temperature, DC Voltage/Current and Resistance. Optional plug-in cards allow the opportunity to configure the controller for present applications, while providing easy upgrades for future needs. The PAX2C employs a tri-color display with seven independently programmable color zones.
The controller has been specifically designed for harsh industrial environments. With NEMA 4X/IP65 sealed bezel, CE compliance and extensive testing of noise effects, the controller provides a tough reliable application solution.
MAIN CONTROL
The controller operates in the PID Control Mode for both heating and cooling, with on-demand auto-tune that establishes the tuning constants. The PID tuning constants may be fine-tuned and then locked out from further modification. The controller employs a unique overshoot suppression feature, that allows the quickest response without excessive overshoot. Switching to Manual Mode provides the operator direct control of the output.
DISPLAY
The PAX2C features a dual line display with units annunciators, dual bar graphs, four universal annunciators and tri-color capability. Each of the seven display zones may be configured independently of the others, providing a visual indication of control and/or alarm status.
ALARMS
The PAX2C has up to sixteen “soft” alarms that may be configured to suit a variety of control and alarm requirements. These alarms may be used to monitor and/or actuate the controller’s physical outputs as well as change display colors. Mapped “soft” alarms may be processed independently or logically combined using AND/OR Boolean logic.
OPTION CARDS
Optional plug-in cards provide dual FORM-C relays, quad FORM-A, quad sinking, or quad sourcing open collector logic outputs. These cards can be used as control outputs or for alarm indication.
A linear DC output signal is available as an optional plug-in card. The card provides either 20 mA or 10 V signals. The output can be scaled independent of the input range and can track the input, max and min readings or for control.
Communication and bus capabilities are also available as option cards. These include RS232, RS485, DeviceNet, and ProfibusDP. The PAX2C can be
programmed to utilize Modbus protocol. With Modbus, the user has access to most configuration parameters. Readout values, setpoint, process and alarm values can be controlled through the bus. Additionally, the controller has a feature that allows a remote computer to directly control the outputs of the controller.
With a Windows® based program, made available by Red Lion Controls, configuration data can be downloaded to the PAX2C via a built-in USB programming port.

Installation
The PAX2C meets NEMA 4X/IP65 requirements when properly installed. The unit is intended to be mounted into an enclosed panel. Prepare the panel cutout to the dimensions shown. Remove the panel latch from the unit. Slide the panel gasket over the rear of the unit to the back of the bezel. The unit should be installed fully assembled. Insert the unit into the panel cutout.
While holding the unit in place, push the panel
latch over the rear of the unit so that the tabs of
the panel latch engage in the slots on the
case. The panel latch should be
engaged in the farthest forward slot
possible. To achieve a proper
seal, tighten the latch
2.0 seTTing The Jumpers
The PAX2C controller has four jumpers that must be checked and/or changed prior to applying power. The following Jumper Selection Figures show an enlargement of the jumper area.
To access the jumpers, remove the controller base from the case by firmly squeezing and pulling back on the side rear finger tabs. This should lower the latch below the case slot (which is located just in front of the finger tabs). It is recommended to release the latch on one side, then start the other side latch.
Warning: Exposed line voltage exists on the circuit boards. Remove
all power to the controller and load circuits before accessing inside of the controller.

Current Input
For current input, only one jumper must be configured to select the current range. This jumper is shared with the voltage input range. To avoid overloads, select the jumper position that is high enough to accommodate the maximum signal input level to be applied.
Note: The position of the T/V jumper does not matter when the controller is in the current input mode.
Temperature Input
For temperature measurement the T/V jumper must be in the T (temperature) position. For RTD sensors the RTD jumper must also be set.
Resistance Input
Three jumpers are used to configure the resistance input. The T/V jumper must be in the V (voltage) position, and the excitation jumper must be in the
1.05 mA REF position. The voltage/resistance jumper position is determined by the input range.
Excitation Output Jumper
This jumper is used to select the excitation range for the application. If excitation is not being used, it is not necessary to check or move this jumper.

1. With the controller removed from the case, locate the plug-in card connector for the card type to be installed. The types are keyed by position with different main circuit board connector locations. When installing the card, hold the controller by the rear terminals and not by the front display board. If installing the Quad sourcing Plug-in Card (PAXCDS40), set the jumper for
internal or external supply operation before continuing.
2. Install the plug-in card by aligning the card terminals with the slot bay in the rear cover. Be sure the connector is fully engaged and the tab on the plug-in card rests in the alignment slot on the display board.
3. Slide the controller base back into the case. Be sure the rear cover latches fully into the case.
4. Apply the plug-in card label to the bottom side of the controller in the designated area. Do Not Cover the vents on the top surface of the controller. The surface of the case must be clean for the label to adhere properly.

4.0 Wiring The COnTrOller
WIRING OVERVIEW
Electrical connections are made via screw-clamp terminals located on the back of the controller. All conductors should conform to the controller’s voltage and current ratings. All cabling should conform to appropriate standards of good installation, local codes and regulations. It is recommended that the power supplied to the controller (DC or AC) be protected by a fuse or circuit breaker.
When wiring the controller, compare the numbers embossed on the back of the controller case against those shown in wiring drawings for proper wire position. Strip the wire, leaving approximately 0.3" (7.5 mm) bare lead exposed (stranded wires should be tinned with solder). Insert the lead under the correct screw-clamp terminal and tighten until the wire is secure (Pull wire to verify tightness). Each terminal can accept up to one #14 AWG (2.55 mm) wire, two #18 AWG (1.02 mm), or four #20 AWG (0.61 mm).
EMC INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Although Red Lion Controls Products are designed with a high degree of immunity to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), proper installation and wiring methods must be followed to ensure compatibility in each application. The type of the electrical noise, source or coupling method into a unit may be different for various installations. Cable length, routing, and shield termination are very important and can mean the difference between a successful or troublesome installation. Listed are some EMI guidelines for a successful installation in an industrial environment.
1. A unit should be mounted in a metal enclosure, which is properly connected
to protective earth.
2. Use shielded cables for all Signal and Control inputs. The shield connection
should be made as short as possible. The connection point for the shield
depends somewhat upon the application. Listed below are the recommended
methods of connecting the shield, in order of their effectiveness.
a. Connect the shield to earth ground (protective earth) at one end where the
unit is mounted.
b. Connect the shield to earth ground at both ends of the cable, usually when
the noise source frequency is over 1 MHz.
3. Never run Signal or Control cables in the same conduit or raceway with AC
power lines, conductors, feeding motors, solenoids, SCR controls, and
heaters, etc. The cables should be run through metal conduit that is properly
grounded. This is especially useful in applications where cable runs are long
and portable two-way radios are used in close proximity or if the installation is near a commercial radio transmitter. Also, Signal or Control cables within an enclosure should be routed as far away as possible from contactors, control relays, transformers, and other noisy components.
4. Long cable runs are more susceptible to EMI pickup than short cable runs.
5. In extremely high EMI environments, the use of external EMI suppression devices such as Ferrite Suppression Cores for signal and control cables is effective. The following EMI suppression devices (or equivalent) are recommended:
Fair-Rite part number 0443167251 (RLC part number FCOR0000) Line Filters for input power cables:
6. To protect relay contacts that control inductive loads and to minimize radiated and conducted noise (EMI), some type of contact protection network is normally installed across the load, the contacts or both. The most effective location is across the load. a. Using a snubber, which is a resistor-capacitor (RC) network or metal oxide
varistor (MOV) across an AC inductive load is very effective at reducing EMI and increasing relay contact life.
b. If a DC inductive load (such as a DC relay coil) is controlled by a transistor
switch, care must be taken not to exceed the breakdown voltage of the transistor when the load is switched. One of the most effective ways is to place a diode across the inductive load. Most RLC products with solid state outputs have internal zener diode protection. However external diode protection at the load is always a good design practice to limit EMI. Although the use of a snubber or varistor could be used. RLC part numbers: Snubber: SNUB0000 Varistor: ILS11500 or ILS23000
7. Care should be taken when connecting input and output devices to the instrument. When a separate input and output common is provided, they should not be mixed. Therefore a sensor common should NOT be connected to an output common. This would cause EMI on the sensitive input common, which could affect the instrument’s operation.

Main Display Loop
In the Main display loop, the D key is pressed to sequence through the selected Line 2 values. The Line 2 units mnemonics are used to indicate which Line 2 value is currently shown. When in the Main display loop, the Function keys and perform the user functions programmed in the User Input parameter section.
Parameter and Hidden Parameter Display Loops
Display loops provide quick access to selected parameters that can be viewed and modified on Line 2 without having to enter Full Programming mode. These values may include: input, max/min, List A/B selection, output power, PID parameters/control, alarm parameters, setpoint values/selection, and display intensity and contrast settings. To utilize the Parameter or Hidden Parameter display loops, a security code (1-250) must be programmed. (See Programming Security Code in the Display Parameters programming section for details.)
The Parameter display loop is accessed by pressing the P key. The selected Parameter display loop values can be viewed and/or changed per the Line 2 Value Access setting programmed for each available value. The Hidden Parameter display loop follows the Parameter display loop, and can only be accessed when the correct security code is entered at the Code prompt. Combining the two parameter loops provides an area for parameters that require general access and/or protected or secure access depending on the application needs.
While in the Parameter and Hidden Parameter loops, pressing the D key will return the meter to the Main display loop. To directly access the Code prompt, press and hold the P key. This can be done from the Main display loop or at any point during the Parameter display loop. Also, to directly access Full Programming mode while in the Hidden Parameter loop, press and hold the P key to bypass any remaining Hidden Parameter loop values.
6.0 prOgramming The paX2C
It is recommended that program settings be recorded as programming is
performed. A blank Parameter Value Chart is provided at the end of this bulletin.
BASIC/ADVANCED MODE
The PAX2C incorporates two different configuration modes that are user
selectable via the Display Configuration Menu:
Basic Mode (bSIC)
When the PAX2C is configured in this mode, a maximum of four alarms are supported and no mapped backlignt color changes are available. Default backlight colors are still user selectable.
Advanced Mode (AdUC)
A maximum of sixteen alarms are supported and all backlight color configuration menu parameters are enabled. Select this mode when you require more than four alarms or where display color changes are desired.
PROGRAMMING MODE ENTRY
The Programming Mode is entered by pressing the P key. Full Programming Mode will be accessible unless the controller is programmed to use the Parameter loop or Hidden Parameter loop on the Line 2 display. In this case, programming access will be limited by a security code and/or a hardware program lock. (Refer to the previous section for details on Line 2 display loops and limited programming access.) Full Programming Mode permits all parameters to be viewed and modified. In this mode, the front panel keys change to Programming Mode Operations and certain user input functions are disabled.
MODULE ENTRY
The Programming Menu is organized into seven modules. These modules group together parameters that are related in function. The and keys are used to select the desired module. The displayed module is entered by pressing the P key.
MODULE MENU
Upon entering a module, a parameter selection sub-menu is provided to choose the specific parameter type for programming. For example, this includes analog and user input under the Input Parameter menu. Use the and keys to select the desired parameter type, and press the P key to enter the parameter menu.
PARAMETER MENU
Upon entering the Parameter Menu, the P key is pressed to advance to a specific parameter to be changed. After completing the parameter menu, or upon pressing the D key, the display returns to the initial entry point for the parameter menu. For each additional press of the D key, the display returns to the previous level within the module until exiting the module entirely.
10
SELECTION/VALUE ENTRY
For each parameter, the top line display shows the parameter while the bottom line shows the selections/value for that parameter. The and keys are used to move through the selections/values for the parameter. Pressing the P key, stores and activates the displayed selection/value. This also advances the meter to the next parameter.
Numerical Value Entry
If the parameter is programmed for enter (Entr), the ! and @ keys are used to change the parameter values in any of the display loops.
The ! and @ keys will increment or decrement the parameter value. When the ! or @ key is pressed and held, the value automatically scrolls. The longer the key is held the faster the value scrolls.
For large value changes, press and hold the ! or @ key. While holding that key, momentarily press the opposite arrow key (@ or !) to shift decades (10’s 100’s, etc), or momentarily press the D key and the value scrolls by 1000’s as the arrow key is held. Releasing the arrow key removes the decade or 1000’s scroll feature. The arrow keys can then be used to make small value changes as described above.

PROGRAMMING MODE EXIT
To exit the Programming Mode, press and hold the D key (from anywhere in the Programming Mode) or press the P key with Pro NO displayed. This will commit stored parameter changes to memory and return the meter to the Display Mode. If a parameter was just changed, the P key must be pressed to store the change before pressing the D key. (If power loss occurs before returning to the Display Mode, verify recent parameter changes.)
PROGRAMMING TIPS
It is recommended to start with the Input Parameters and proceed through each module in sequence. If lost or confused while programming, press and hold the D key to exit programming mode and start over. It is recommended that program settings be recorded as programming is performed. When programming is complete lock out programming with a user input or lock-out code.
Factory Settings may be completely restored in the Factory Service Operations module. This is useful when encountering programming problems.

Example: It is necessary to square root linearize the output of a differential
pressure transmitter to indicate and control flow. The defining equation is F = 278 ÖΔP , where ΔP = 0 - 500 PSI, transmitted linearly by a 4 - 20 mA
transducer. At full flow rate ( ΔP = 500 PSI), the flow is 6216 ft3/h. The
following scaling information is used with the controller:
As a result of the scaling and square root linearization, the following
represents the readings at various inputs:
This parameter allows the unit to be used in applications in which the measured signal is the square of the PV. This is useful in applications such as the measurement of flow with a differential pressure transducer.

For non-linear processes, up to 16 scaling points may be used to provide a piece-wise linear approximation. (The greater the number of scaling points used, the greater the conformity accuracy.) The Input Display will be linear between scaling points that are sequential in program order. Each scaling point has a coordinate-pair consisting of an Input Value (INPt n) and an associated desired Display Value (dISP n). Data from tables or equations, or empirical data could be used to derive the required number of segments and data values for the coordinate pairs. In the Crimson software, several linearization equations are provided to help calculate scaling points.
SCALING STYLE

KEY
If Input Values and corresponding Display Values are known, the
Key-in (KEY) scaling style can be used. This allows scaling without the presence of the input signal. If Input Values have to be derived from the actual input signal source or simulator, the Apply (APLY) scaling style must be used.

user inpuT/funCTiOn Key parameTers (USEr)
The two user inputs are individually programmable to perform specific meter control functions. While in the Display Mode or Program Mode, the function is
executed the instant the user input transitions to the active state. The front panel function keys, ! and @, are also individually programmable to perform specific control functions. While in the Display Mode, the primary function is executed the instant the key is pressed. Holding the function key for three seconds executes a secondary function. It is possible to program a secondary function without a primary function.
In most cases, if more than one user input and/or function key is programmed for the same function, the maintained (level trigger) actions will be performed while at least one of those user inputs or function keys are activated. The momentary (edge trigger) actions will be performed every time any of those user inputs or function keys transition to the active state.
Note: In the following explanations, not all selections are available for both user inputs and front panel function keys. Displays are shown with each selection. Those selections showing both displays are available for both. If a display is not shown, it is not available for that selection. USEr-n will represent both user inputs. Fn will represent both function keys and second function keys.

The Cycle Time value is the sum of a time-proportioned output’s
SEC
on and off cycles. With time proportional outputs, the percentage of output power is converted into output on time of the cycle time value eg. if the controller’s algorithm calls for 65% power, and has a Cycle Time of 10 seconds, the output will be on for 6.5 seconds and off for
0.0 to 60.0 seconds
