INSTALLATION CONT..
SENSOR INPUT CONNECTIONS.
Sensor cables must be of the SHEILDED type and must not exceed 500 Metres.
Sensor cables should not run parallel or in the same duct as high voltage cables.
The shield of the sensor cable must be connected to the EARTH terminal and must
only be connected at one end, the shield must be continuous at each sensor drop.
Sensors require one wire for common (usually red) and one for positive (usually
black).
If more than one sensor is used (optional extra). The common (usually red) may be
tied to one wire which can be connected to all sensor commons. i.e.. for 8 sensors 9
wires need only be used.
The sensors (if a single sensor is used) negative wire (usually black) must be con-
nected to terminal SEN - and the positive wire (usually red) to SEN +.
Extra sensors (optional extra) positive wire (usually red) must be connected to
terminal SEN + and the negative wire (usually black) must be connected to its
corresponding channel number marked INPUTS 2 to 8 inclusive.
Sensors are numbered before shipment and are calibrated at the factory. Therefore
each sensor’s negative wire (usually black) must be connected to its’ corresponding
sensor input. For instructions on how to re calibrate sensors see CALIBRATE
SENSORS.

SENSOR POSITIONING.
The sensor (and extra sensors, optional extra) may be placed in any convenient
position keeping in mind that if more than one sensor was set to be used for controlling, the average of those sensors will the temperature used for control and will be
the temperature displayed in the normal (not scan mode) display mode while displaying the temperature.
The sensor or sensors used for control should be placed in the return air section for
cooling, and where applicable for heating.
The distance a sensor may be placed from the unit should not exceed 500 meters
The sensors must not be exposed to temperatures below -50.0 oC or above
+150.0 oC
Sensors and cables should not be fully immersed in any liquid for long periods of
time. They may be immersed for short periods for calibration purposes only. The
stainless steel sheath may be immersed in a liquid that will not corrode AISI 304
Stainless Steel.
PRINTER CONNECTION(RS485).
Up to 16 units (TD-196) can be connected to a printer (a standard EPSON ® or
compatible printer with a SERIAL interface) for printing out of temperatures at
preset times, data logged temperatures and parameter set points.
All units in the chain must have their RS485 - terminals connected
together (in parallel) and their RS485 + terminals connected together (in parallel)
using single twisted pair coaxial cable. The shield must be connected to GROUND at
one end only (not at each unit).
To connect to a printer with an RS232 port, the TD-196's + serial
output must be connected to the rs232 receive input (pin 3 on the 25 pin D connec-tor) and the ground output/input on the TD-196 connected to the signal ground of the
printer (pin 7 on the 25 pin D connector). The pins 4 & 5 on the 25 pin D connector
must be tied (shorted) together. This type of communication is only available if all
TD-196 units are in close proximity to each other and the printer, (no more than 6
metres).
For longer distances and parrallel interface see later under Printer Communications
and Remote Display Module

PRINTER COMMUNICATIONS
Up to 16 units (TD-196) can be connected to a printer for printing out
of temperatures at preset times, data logged temperatures and parameter set points.
All units in the chain must have their RS485 - terminals connected
together (in parallel) and their RS485 + terminals connected together (in parallel)
using single twisted pair coaxial cable. The shield must be connected to GROUND at
one end only (not at each unit).
To connect to a printer with an RS232 port, the TD-196's + serial
output must be connected to the rs232 receive input (pin 3 on the 25 pin D connec-tor) and the ground output/input on the TD-196 connected to the signal ground of the
printer (pin 7 on the 25 pin D connector). The pins 4 & 5 on the 25 pin D connector
must be tied (shorted) together. This type of communication is only available if all
TD-196 units are in close proximity to each other and the printer, (no more than 6
metres).
When using the Remote Display Module the distance may be extended
to 500 metres between all units and the Remote Display unit. The printer is connected to the remote display unit via a standard parallel printer cable, and does not
require RS232 interface. For more information on the Remote Display Module, see
REMOTE DISPLAY.
All units must be set to have a unique identity number (1 - 16 inclu-sive). As each unit prints its temperature (at preset times) it places its data in its
relative position (compared to its unit number) on the line of an A4 page. The unit
that is set to do a LINE FEED also prints the current time at the start of the line
before it prints its temperature on its relevant position then sends a line feed to allow
the next lot of temperatures to print at the next time. The unit that has the largest
number (unit identity) should be set to send the line feed, as the unit number determines the time when the unit is allowed to print after the RS485 line becomes
available.
When printing parameter set points, data logged or maximum and
minimum (see PRINT) the unit will send a line feed and a carriage return then its
own identity number plus time and date before it sends its data.
If the 8 channel option is installed on any unit in the chain, these units
will always send a line feed and its identity number if more than one sensor (or onesensor other than channel one) temperature is to be sent.
The unit that sends the line feed also counts line feeds as they are sent
to the printer and will send a form feed after 56 line feeds have been sent to the
printer. Then this unit will send a heading with channel numbers etc. for the beginning of a new page. See Setting LINE FEED YES/NO for more information on
page breaks and headings also.

ERROR MESSAGES
If this is displayed it means that the calibration values are corrupt or have been
altered. The alarm will be active (on) and all controls will be turned off.
To correct the alarm fault use the previous functions "CALIBRATE VALUES
CHECK & ALTER" first to check that all values for all channels are correct (if acopy of the values was kept, use them.). After this has been done use the "CALIBRATE VALUES UPDATE" function to enter all values for the check sum and
corruption testing.
If this is displayed it means that the check sum check on all set points while the unit
was running (and was not reset by the watch dog, independent timer for the micro-processor run time check ) is corrupt. The alarm will sound and all controls will be
turned off.
To rectify this alarm condition CHECK ALL set points to make sure that they are
valid and correct. The alarm indication will cease when the first set point is checked
but all set points must be checked as the first set point checked may not be the one
that was corrupt.
If this is displayed it means that the check sum check on all set points while the unit
was running (and was reset by the watch dog, independent timer for the microproc-essor run time check ) is corrupt. The alarm will sound and all controls will be
turned off.
To rectify this do as the above routine (check all set point parameters).

If this is displayed it means that the current sensors temperature that is displayed is
faulty. Check the cable to the sensor for an open circuit or short circuit.
If the sensor that is faulty (only if the 8 channel multiplexer option is present) is used
as the control sensor only, the alarm will sound and all controls will be turned off. If
it is used as one of the sensors in an average of temperatures the controls will be
turned off but the alarm will not sound.
If this is displayed it means that the display (only with the 8 channel multiplexeroption) is not currently available.

MOUNTING.
The unit may be fixed or placed in any convenient location and may be up to 500
metres from the furthermost TD-196 unit.
POWER SUPPLY.
The unit requires 8 to 12 volts a.c. or d.c. at 300 ma. A common 240 ac adapter
which supplies a low voltage output within this range should be used.
The polarity of the low voltage input to the TD-196R is irrelevant and may be
placed either way even if the voltage is DC.
If the unit is to be permanently mounted onto a wall, it is possible to connect the
power supply and the RS485 input from the rear of the unit, see Internal
Connections for this application.

This is possible if the power has been disconnected from the Remote Display for 12
hours approx.
The DEFAULT VALUES are as follows :-
1 =SCAN RATE= 10
2 =SCAN YES/NO= YES
3 =UNITS TO SCAN= YES TO ALL UNITS 1-16
4 =CHANNELS TO SCAN = YES TO ALL CHANNELS ALL UNITS
5 =DISPLAY INTENSITY= 8
6 =BAUD RATE= 9600
NOTE :-
When all values are set to their default values and all TD-196 units
have a baud rate of 9600 the remote display will automatically detect the
correct units and channels to display/scan providing the serial line is connected
correctly.
