System Operation
General
The QuadScan II allows up to 4 inputs of 0/4 - 20 mA and converts these inputs to digital displays on a LCD. An input
cu
rrent of 4 mA corresponds to a display of 0.00, and an input current of 20 mA corresponds to the programmed full
scale digital display. Displays are checked against programmed alarm levels (set points) to illuminate LEDs, activate
relays, and sound the in

Contrast may be set for the LCD during setup and programming, which may provide a clearer view of the digital

The LCD can be programmed with up to a maximum of six (6) alphanumeric characters to display specific customer

Visual Indications (LEDs)
The visual indications located on the digital/function assembly are divided into two distinct sections; channel status

Channel Status
The channel status essentially provides a summary of the health of each active channel. Four LEDs are used,
one for each of the 4 channels. Each LED provides 3 functions:
Channel OK - Green
Channel in Fail - F
Channel Inhibited - Flashing yellow/green

Each channel has 2 LEDs, warn (yellow), for low alarm status and alarm (red)
for high alarm status. The operation of these LEDs are contro

Latching Alarms
Latching alarms describe the behavior of the software emulating a self latching relay. The coil is energized through
one of its own contacts, thereby holding itself energized. This typ

There are four SPDT common alarm relays located on the CPU/power supply board.
