1 Introduction Model 5000B

1.4 Operator Interface

All controls and displays on the standard 5000B are accessible from
outside the housing. The instrument has two simple operator controls. The
operator has constant feedback from the instrument through an alphanumeric
display, and a digital LED meter. The displays and controls are described
briefly here and in greater detail in chapter 3. See Figure 1-1.

1.4.1 UP/DOWN Switch

The UP/DOWN switch is used to select between any subfunctions
displayed on the VFD screen such as in the main menue, the system menue,
the Alarm menue, etc. When modifiable values are displayed on the VFD,
the UP/DOWN switch can be used to increment or decrement the values.

1.4.2 ESCAPE/ENTER Switch

The ESCAPE/ENTER switch is used to input the data, to enter a
function, or to exit a function displayed in the alphanumeric display:

• Escape Moves VFD display back to the previous screen in a

series. If none remains, returns to Analyze mode

screen.

• Enter Within a menue: the funtion selected is entered

moving on to the next screen in a series.

With Value selected: Enters the value into the
analyzer as data. Advances cursor on VFD to the
next operation.

In the Analyze mode: it calls the main menue.
Functions called out by the main menue:

-System This function is a menu that calls a

number of functions
that regulate the analyzer

operation.

-Span This function spans the instrument.

1-6: Part I

-Zero This function zeros the instrument.

-Alarms This functions sets the alarm

preferences.

Teledyne Analytical Instruments

Photometric Analyzer Part I: Control Unit

-Range This function selects whether analyzer is

autoranging or locked on one range.

-Standby Places the analyzer in a sleep mode.

WARNING:

The power cable must be disconnected to fully remove
power from the instrument.

Figure 1-1: Model 5000B Controls, Indicators, and Connectors

Digital Meter Display: The meter display is a Light Emitting Diode

LED device that produces large, bright, 7-segment numbers that are legible
in any lighting. It is accurate across all analysis ranges. The 5000B models
produce continuous readout from 0-10,000 ppm and then switch to
continuous percent readout from 1-100 %.

Alphanumeric Interface Screen: The backlit VFD screen is an easy-

to-use interface between operator and analyzer. It displays values, options,
and messages for immediate feedback to the operator.

1.5 Control Section Interface Panel

The Control Section interface panel, shown in Figure 1-2, contains the
electrical terminal blocks for external inputs and outputs. The input/output
functions are described briefly here and in detail in the Installation chapter of
this manual.

• Power Connection AC power source, 115VAC, 50/60 Hz

• Analog Outputs 0-1 V dc concentration and 0-1 V dc

range ID. Isolated 4-20 mA dc and 4-20
mA dc range ID.

• Alarm Connections 2 concentration alarms and 1 system

alarm.

• RS-232 Port Serial digital concentration signal output

and control input.

• Remote Bench Provides all electrical interconnect to the

Analysis Section.

Remote Span/Zero Digital inputs allow external control of

analyzer calibration.

• Calibration Contact To notify external equipment that

instrument is being calibrated and
readings are not monitoring sample.

• Range ID Contacts Four separate, dedicated, range relay

contacts.

• Network I/O Serial digital communications for local

network access. For future expansion.
Not implemented at this printing.

Note: If you require highly accurate Auto-Cal timing, use external

Auto-Cal control where possible. The internal clock in the
Model 5000B is accurate to 2-3 %. Accordingly, internally
scheduled calibrations can vary 2-3 % per day.

1 Introduction Model 5000B

Figure 2-3: Interface Panel of the Model 6600 Control Section

For safe connections, ensure that no uninsulated wire extends

outside of the terminal blocks. Stripped wire ends must insert completely

into terminal blocks. No uninsulated wiring should come in contact with
fingers, tools or clothing during normal operation.

Primary Input Power: The power supply in the Model 6600 will

accept a 115 Vac, 50/60 Hz power source. See Figure 2-4 for detailed
connections.

DANGER: Power is applied to the instrument's circuitry as

long as the instrument is connected to the power
source. The standby function switches power on or
off to the displays and outputs only.

Fuse Installation: The fuse holders accept 5 x 20 mm, 4.0 A, T type

(slow blow) fuses. Fuses are not installed at the factory. Be sure to install
the proper fuse as part of installation (See Fuse Replacement in chapter 4,

maintenance.)

Analog Outputs: There are eight DC output signal connectors on

the ANALOG OUTPUTS terminal block. There are two connectors per
output with the polarity noted. See Figure 2-5.

The outputs are:
0–1 V dc % of Range: Voltage rises linearly with increasing sample con-

centration, from 0 V at 0% to 1 V at 100%. (Full
scale = 100% programmed range.)

0–1 V dc Range ID: 0.25 V = Range 1, 0.5 V = Range 2, 0.75 V =

Range 3.

4–20 mA dc % Range: Current increases linearly with increasing sample

concentration, from 4 mA at 0% to 20 mA at full
scale 100%. (Full scale = 100% of programmed
range.)

4–20 mA dc Range ID: 8 mA = Range 1, 12 mA = Range 2, 16 mA =

Range 3.

Figure 2-5: Analog Output Connections

Examples:

The analog output signal has a voltage which depends on the sample
concentration AND the currently activated analysis range. To relate the
signal output to the actual concentration, it is necessary to know what range
the instrument is currently on, especially when the analyzer is in the
autoranging mode.

The signaloutput for concentration is linear over currently selected
analysis range. For example, if the analyzer is set on a range that was
defined as 0-10 %, then the output would be as shown in Table 2-1.

Table 2-1: Analog Concentration Output-Examples

Concentration Voltage Signal Current Signal

% Output (V dc) Output (mA dc)

0 0.0 4.0
1 0.1 5.6

10 1.0 20.0

To provide an indication of the range, a second pair of analog output
terminals are used. They generate a steady preset voltage (or current when
using the current outputs) to represent a particular range. Table 2-2 gives the
range ID output for each analysis range.

Table 2-2: Analog Range ID Output - Example

Range Voltage (V) Current (mA)

Range 1 0.25 8

Range 2 0.50 12

Range 3 0.75 16

Alarm Relays:

There are three alarm-circuit connectors on the alarm relays block
(under RELAY OUTPUTS) for making connections to internal alarm relay
contacts. Each provides a set of Form C contacts for each type of alarm.
Each has both normally open and normally closed contact connections. The
contact connections are indicated by diagrams on the rear panel. They are
capable of switching up to 3 ampers at 250 V AC into a resistive load
(Figure 2-6).

tration is above threshold), or low (actuates when
concentration is below threshold).

• Can be configured as fail-safe or non-fail-safe.

• Can be configured as latching or nonlatching.

• Can be configured out (defeated).

System Alarm: Actuates when DC power supplied to circuits is

unacceptable in one or more parameters. Permanently
configured as fail-safe and latching. Cannot be de­feated. Actuates if self test fails.

To reset a System Alarm during installation, discon­nect power to the instrument and then reconnect it

Further detail can be found in chapter 3, section 3-5.

Digital Remote Cal Inputs
Remote Zero and Span Inputs: The REMOTE SPAN and RE-

MOTE ZERO inputs are on the DIGITAL INPUT terminal block. They

2-6: Part I

Teledyne Analytical Instruments

Photometric Analyzer Part I: Control Unit

accept 0 V (OFF) or 24 V dc (ON) for remote control of calibration (See
Remote Calibration Protocol below.)

Zero: Floating input. 5 to 24 V input across the + and – terminals

puts the analyzer into the ZERO mode. Either side may be
grounded at the source of the signal. 0 to 1 volt across the
terminals allows ZERO mode to terminate when done. A
synchronous signal must open and close the external zero
valve appropriately. See Remote Probe Connector at end of
section 3.3. (With the -C option, the internal valves automati­cally operate synchronously).

Span: Floating input. 5 to 24 V input across the + and – terminals

puts the analyzer into the SPAN mode. Either side may be
grounded at the source of the signal. 0 to 1 volt across the
terminals allows SPAN mode to terminate when done. A
synchronous signal must open and close the external span
valve appropriately. See Remote Probe Connector at end of
section 3.3. (With the -C option, the internal valves automati­cally operate synchronously.)

Cal Contact: This relay contact is closed while analyzer is spanning
and/or zeroing. (See Remote Calibration Protocol below.)

Remote Calibration Protocol: To properly time the Digital Remote
Cal Inputs to the Model 5000B Analyzer, the customer's controller must
monitor the Cal Relay Contact.

When the contact is OPEN, the analyzer is analyzing, the Remote Cal
Inputs are being polled, and a zero or span command can be sent.

When the contact is CLOSED, the analyzer is already calibrating. It
will ignore your request to calibrate, and it will not remember that request.

Once a zero or span command is sent, and acknowledged (contact
closes), release it. If the command is continued until after the zero or span is
complete, the calibration will repeat and the Cal Relay Contact (CRC) will
close again.

For example:

1) Test the CRC. When the CRC is open, Send a zero command
until the CRC closes (The CRC will quickly close.)

2) When the CRC closes, remove the zero command.

3) When CRC opens again, send a span command until the CRC
closes. (The CRC will quickly close.)

4) When the CRC closes, remove the span command.

Teledyne Analytical Instruments

Part I: 2-7

1 Introduction Model 5000B

When CRC opens again, zero and span are done, and the sample is

being analyzed.

Note: The Remote Bench terminal strip (section 3.6 Part III) provides

signals to ensure that the zero and span gas valves will be
controlled synchronously.

Range ID Relays: Four dedicated RANGE ID CONTACT relays .

The first four ranges are assigned to relays in ascending order—Range 1 is
assigned to RANGE 1 ID, Range 2 is assigned to RANGE 2 ID, Range 3
is assigned to RANGE 3 ID, and Range 4 is assigned to RANGE 4 ID.

Network I/O: A serial digital input/output for local network protocol.

At this printing, this port is not yet functional. It is to be used in future
versions of the instrument.

RS-232 Port: The digital signal output is a standard RS-232 serial

communications port used to connect the analyzer to a computer, terminal, or
other digital device. The pinouts are listed in Table 2-3.

The data sent is status information, in digital form, updated every two

seconds. Status is reported in the following order:

• The concentration in percent

• The range is use (HI< MED< LO)

2-8: Part I

• The span of the range 0-100%, etc.

• Which alarm - if any - are disabled (AL-x DISABLED)

Teledyne Analytical Instruments

Photometric Analyzer Part I: Control Unit

• Which alarms - if any - are tripped (AL-x ON)

Each status output is followed by a carriage return and line feed.

Three input functions using RS-232 have been implemented to date. They

are described in Table 2-4.

Remote Bench and Solenoid Valves: The 5000B is a single-chassis

instrument. However, the REMOTE BENCH and SOLENOID RETURN
connectors are provided on the interface PCB. The Remote Bench is wired
at the factory as well as any optional solenoid valves included in the system.

2.3 Testing the System

After The Control/Analysis Unit is both installed and interconnected, and

the system gas or liquid stream and electrical connections are complete, the
system is ready to test. Before plugging the unit into its power sources:

• Check the integrity and accuracy of the fluid connections. Make sure
there are no leaks.

• Check the integrity and accuracy of all electrical connections. Make
sure there are no exposed conductors

Teledyne Analytical Instruments

Part I: 2-9

1 Introduction Model 5000B

• Check that sample pressure typically between 0 and 30 psig,
according to the requirements of your process.

Power up the system, and test it by performing the following operation:

1. Repeat the Self-Diagnostic Test.

2. Zero the instrument.

3. Span the instrument.

Consult calibration recommendation in the addendum for your

particular application whether liquid or gas phase monitoring.

For steps 2 and 3, refer to part II for calibration.

Photometric Analyzer Operation /Control Unit 3

Operation

3.1 Introduction

Although the Model 5000B is usually programmed to your application

at the factory, it can be further configured at the operator level, or even,
cautiously, reprogrammed. Depending on the specifics of the application,
this might include all or a subset of the following procedures:

• Setting system parameters:

• Establish a security password, if desired, requiring Operator
to log in (secure in safe file for referrence).

• Establish and start an automatic calibration cycle, if desired.

• Routine Operation:

• Calibrate the instrument.

• Choose autoranging or select a fixed range of analysis.

• Set alarm setpoints, and modes of alarm operation (latching,
fail-safe, etc).

• Program/Reprogram the analyzer:

• Define new applications.

The Enter button is used to accept any new entries on the VFD screen.

The Escape button is used to abort any new entries on the VFD screen that
are not yet accepted by use of the Enter button.

Figure 3-1 shows the hierarchy of functions available to the operator via the

function buttons. The six functions of the buttons on the analyzer are:

• Analyze. This is the normal operating mode. The analyzer monitors

the concentration of the sample, displays the percent or parts-per­million of target fluid or contamination, and warns of any alarm
conditions.

• System. The system function consists of nine subfunctions.
Four of these are for ordinary setup and operation:

• Setup an Auto-Cal

• Assign Passwords

• Log out to secure system

• Initiate a Self-Test

Three of the subfunctions do auxiliary tasks:

• Checking model and software version

• Adjust electronic filter of the signal

• Display more subfunctions

• Display negative readings

Two of these are for programming/reprogramming the analyzer:

• Define fluid applications and ranges (Refer to programming
section, or contact factory.)

• Use the Curve Algorithm to linearize output. (Refer to
programming section, or contact factory.)

• Zero. Used to set up a zero calibration.

• Span. Used to set up a span calibration.

• Alarms. Used to set the alarm setpoints and determine whether

each alarm will be active or defeated, HI or LO acting, latching,
and/or fail-safe.

• Range. Used to set up three analysis ranges that can be switched

automatically with autoranging or used as individual fixed
ranges.

Any function can be selected at any time by pressing the appropriate
button (unless password restrictions apply). The order as presented in this
manual is appropriate for an initial setup.

Each of these functions is described in greater detail in the following proce­dures. The VFD screen text that accompanies each operation is reproduced, at
