Using This manUal

USB Programming Port

This manual contains installation and programming instructions for the PAX2C and all applicable option cards. For ease of installation it is recommended that the Installation Guide received with the controller be used for the installation process.

Only the portions of this manual that apply to the application need to be read. Minimally, we recommend that General Controller Specifications, Reviewing the Front Buttons and Display, and Crimson® Programming Software portions of this manual be read in their entirety.

We highly recommend that controller programming be performed using Crimson programming software. When using Crimson, the programming portion of this manual serves as an overview of the programming options that are available through Crimson. The programming section of the manual will serve to provide expanded explanations of some of the PAX2C programming features found in Crimson.

For users who do not intend to use Crimson to program their controller, this manual includes information to provide for a user to program one, or all, of the

programming parameters using the controller’s keypad. Note that due to the extensive programming features of the PAX2C, complete programming of the controller using the controller’s keypad is not recommended.

When a FlexCard™ is installed, additional parameters may be available.

Unique FlexCard parameters are defined in 7.0 Programming the FlexCard. Parameters identified as FCx that are not defined in the FlexCard programming portion of the manual function as defined in 6.0 Programming the PAX2C.

To find information regarding a specific topic or mnemonic, it is recommended that the manual be viewed on a computer and the “find” function be used. The alternate method of finding information is to identify the programming parameter involved (Input, Output, Display, PID, Alarm, or Communication) and review the information contained in the section of the manual that pertains to that parameter.

CrimsOn PrOgramming sOfTware

Crimson® software is a Windows® based program that allows configuration of the PAX® controller from a PC. Crimson offers standard drop-down menu commands, that make it easy to program the controller. The controller’s program can then be saved in a PC file for future use.

PrOgramming Using CrimsOn:

Crimson is included on the Flash Drive that is shipped with the PAX2C. Check for

updates to Crimson at http://www.redlion.net/crimson2.

- Install Crimson. Follow the installation instructions provided by the source from which Crimson is being downloaded or installed.

- Using a USB Type A-Mini B cable, plug the Mini B end of the cable into the PAX2C USB Programming Port.

- Plug the other end of the USB cable into an available USB port on the PC.

- Apply power to the PAX2C. If a FlexCard has been removed, or has had the address changed, error message(s) will need to be resolved before continuing. See Troubleshooting, on page 61, for error message resolution.

- Start Crimson.

- Click the Crimson “Link” tab.

- Click “Extract…”

o Crimson will extract the current program settings from the PAX2C.

o If the controller has not been programmed, the extracted file will contain

factory settings. Note that the PAX2C factory settings vary based on the option cards installed.

o Crimson will display a PAX2C with various areas described by the

programming parameters that pertain to the area.

- Double click on the “Analog/User Inputs/F Keys/PID” area.

- Make configuration selections. For information regarding a configuration selection, hover the curser over the selection area.

- Make configuration selections for each tab that appears across the top. When completed click “Close”.

INSTALLATION

The PAX2C meets NEMA 4X/IP65 requirements when properly installed. The controller is intended to be mounted into an enclosed panel. Prepare the panel cutout to the dimensions shown. Remove the panel latch from the controller. Slide the panel gasket over the rear of the controller to the back of the bezel. The controller should be installed fully assembled. Insert the controller into the panel cutout.

While holding the controller in place, push the panel latch over the rear of the controller 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 screws evenly until

the controller is snug in the panel

(Torque to approximately 7 in-lbs [79N-

cm]). Do not over-tighten the screws.

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.

INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT

The controller should be installed in a location that does not exceed the operating temperature and provides good air circulation. Placing the controller near devices that generate excessive heat should be avoided.

The bezel should only be cleaned with a soft cloth and neutral soap product. Do NOT use solvents. Continuous exposure to direct sunlight may accelerate the aging process of the bezel.

Do not use tools of any kind (screwdrivers, pens, pencils, etc.) to operate the keypad 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.

4.0 wiring The COnTrOller

WIRING OVERVIEW

Electrical connections are made via terminals located on the back or top 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 to those shown in wiring drawings for proper wire position. Strip the wire, according to the terminal block specifications (stranded wires should be tinned with solder). Insert the lead into the correct terminal and then tighten the terminal until the wire is secure (Pull wire to verify tightness).

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

b. Connect the shield to earth ground at both ends of the cable, usually when

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

unit is mounted.

the noise source frequency is over 1 MHz.

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 advance 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 perform the user function as programmed in the User Input parameter section.

Parameter and Hidden Parameter Display Loops

To utilize the Hidden Parameter display loop, 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 (key must be pressed twice if displaying a dEnt value). 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 controller 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 highly recommended that controller programming be performed using Crimson programming software. Program settings should be saved or recorded as programming is performed.

BASIC/ADVANCED CONFIGURATION MODE

The PAX2C provides two different user selectable configuration modes:

Basic Configuration Mode (bSIC)

Basic is the default mode. When the PAX2C is configured in this mode, a maximum of four alarms are supported and no mapped backlight color changes are available. Default backlight colors are user selectable.

Advanced Configuration Mode (AdUC)

In the Advanced mode, 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 process dependent display color changes are desired.

FULL PROGRAMMING ENTRY

Full Programming is entered by pressing and holding the P key. Full Programming will be accessible unless the controller is programmed to use the Hidden Parameter loop or PLOC is active with CodE = 0. 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 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.

MAIN PROGRAMMING LOOP

The Main Programming Loop provides access to seven main programming

modules. These modules group together functionally related parameters. The ! and @ keys are used to select the desired programming module. The displayed module is entered by pressing the P key.

PARAMETER PROGRAMMING SELECTION LOOP

After entering (P key) a main programming module selection, the user gains

access to the programming selection loop. This loop breaks down the specific module into more specific and detailed parameter groups. For example, the Input Parameter module provides for selection of Analog and User input parameters. The ! and @ keys are used to select the desired parameter programming selection. The parameter programming selection is entered by pressing the P key.

PARAMETER PROGRAMMING LOOP

After entering (P key) a parameter in the parameter programming selection

loop, the Parameter Programming Loop is entered. This loop is a sequence of parameters that can be changed/programmed. The P key is pressed to enter the program selection and advance to the next parameter. After advancing through all the parameters in the Parameter Programming Loop, the display returns to the Parameter Programming Selection Loop.

If a parameter selection has been changed, the P key must be pressed in order

to save the change. Pressing the D key before pressing the P key will cause the unit to abort a selected change.

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 controller to the next parameter.

Numerical Value Entry

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 controller 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 highly recommended that controller programming be performed using

Crimson programming software. If lost or confused while programming using the keypad method, press and hold the D key to exit programming mode and start over. Program settings should be saved or recorded as programming is performed. When programming is downloaded or completed, 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 controller to be used in applications in

which the measured signal is the square of the process value (PU). This is useful in applications such as the measurement of flow with a differential pressure transducer.

Rounding selections other than one, cause the Input Display to ‘round’ to the nearest rounding increment selected (ie. rounding of ‘5’ causes 122 to round to 120 and 123 to round to 125). Rounding starts at the least significant digit of the Input Display. Remaining

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.

Linear - Scaling Points (2)

For linear processes, only 2 scaling points are necessary. It is recommended that the 2 scaling points be at opposite ends of the input signal being applied. The points do not have to be the signal limits. Display scaling will be linear between and continue past the

The two user inputs are individually programmable to perform specific 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. USrx will represent both user inputs. Fx will represent both function keys and second function keys.
