Auto-tuning for Heat & Cool PID Settings
Welcome to the Watlow Series 965, a 1/16 DIN microprocessor-based tempera­ture control. The 965 has a single input which accepts type J, K, T, N or S thermocouple, RTD or process input.
With dual output, the primary can be heating or cooling while the secondary can be a control output opposite the primary output (heat or cool), alarm or none. Both outputs can be selected as either PID or on/off. PID settings include proportional band, reset/integral, and rate/derivative. Setting the proportional band to zero makes the Series 965 a simple on/off control with switching differential selectable under the HSC parameter.
Special 965 features include the NEMA 4X rating, dual four digit displays in either red or green, optional low volt power supply, auto-tuning for both heat and cool outputs, ramp to set point for gradual warm-up of your thermal system, and automatic/manual capability with bumpless transfer.
Operator-friendly features include automatic LED indicators to aid in monitoring and setup, as well as a calibration offset at the front panel. The Watlow Series 965 automatically stores all information in a non-volatile memory.

Installation Procedure
Follow this procedure to mount the Watlow Series 965 temperature control:
1. Make a panel cutout per the dimensions in Figure 2.
2. Remove the 965 chassis from its case. Holding each side of the bezel, press in firmly on the side grips until the tabs release. Pull the chassis out of the case and set aside for later installation.

NOTE: For rapid mounting, use Greenlee punch #60020 and die #60021, or hand hydraulic unit, Kit #7306. All available from Grainger.
3. Make sure the rounded side of the external case gasket is facing the panel surface. Check to see that the gasket is not twisted, and is seated within the case bezel flush with the panel. Place the case in the cutout you just made. Make sure the gasket is between the panel cutout and the case bezel. See Figure 4A.

4. While pressing the front of the case firmly against the panel, slide the mounting collar over the back of the control. The tabs on the collar must line up with the mounting ridges on the case for secure installation. See Figure 4A again. Slide the collar firmly against the back of the panel getting it as tight as possible. Make sure you cannot move the case within the cutout; if you can you do not have a NEMA 4X seal.
Now let's make sure we have a tight seal. Use your thumb to lock the tabs into place while pressing the case from side to side. Don't be afraid to apply enough pressure to install the control. The tabs on each side of the collar have teeth which latch into the ridges. See Figure 4B. Each tooth is stag­gered at a different height, so only one of the tabs on each side are ever locked into the ridges at any time.
Looking at Figure 5, you see that the tabs on one side of the collar corre­spond with those on the opposite side. Make sure that the two correspond­ing tabs are the only ones locked in the ridges at the same time. If the matching tabs are not holding the case at the same time you will not have a NEMA 4X seal. You can make a visual check, or use your finger nail to pull out on each tab. Only one on each side is engaged, and they must be corresponding as in Figure 5. The space between the bezel and panel must be between 0 and 0.019" (0.48 mm).

Make sure that the two correspond-
ing tabs below are locked in the
ridges at the same time.
NEMA 4X Seal Example.
When removing the mounting collar, we suggest sliding a thin tool such as a putty knife or screwdriver under all three tabs on each side at once and pulling it back off the case.
5. Insert the control chassis into its case and press the bezel to seat it. Make sure the inside gasket is also seated properly and not twisted. The hard­ware installation is complete. Proceed to the wiring section from here.

How to Wire the Series 965
The Series 965 wiring is illustrated by model number option. Check the unit sticker on the control and compare your model number to those shown here and also the model number breakdown in the Appendix of this manual.
All outputs are referenced to a de-energized state. The final wiring figure is a typical system example.
When you apply power without sensor inputs on the terminal strip, the Series 965 displays [----] in the upper display, and a [```0] in the lower display, except for 0-5VÎ (dc) or 4-20mA process input units. Press the A/M key twice, and [ER`7] is displayed for one second. This error indicates an open sensor or A/D error. Remove power to the control and connect the sensor properly, see pages 8 and 9. All wiring and fusing must conform to the National Electric Code and to any locally applicable codes as well.

Input Wiring

Sensor Installation Guidelines
We suggest you mount the sensor at a location in your process or system where it reads an average temperature. Put the sensor as near as possible to the material or space you want to control. Air flow past this sensor should be moderate. The sensor should be thermally insulated from the sensor mounting.
See Chapter 4 for more information on DIP switch location and orientation.
Thermocouple Input
NOTE: When an external device with a non­isolated circuit common is con­nected to the 4­20mA or dc output, you must use an isolated or un­grounded thermo­couple.
Figure 8 ­Thermocouple Sensor Input Wiring
ç
CAUTION: Process input does not have sensor break protection. Outputs can remain full on.
Extension wire for thermocouples must be of the same alloy as the thermo­couple itself to limit errors.

RTD, 2- or 3-wire
There could be a + 2°F input error for every 1 of lead length resistance when using a 2-wire RTD. That resistance, when added to the RTD element resis­tance, will result in erroneous input to the instrument. To overcome this prob­lem, use a 3-wire RTD sensor, which compensates for lead length resistance. When extension wire is used for a 3-wire RTD, all wires must have the same electrical resistance (i.e. same gauge, copper stranded, same length).

WARNING: Remove power from the control before removing the chassis from the case or changing the DIP switches.
Chapter 4 How To Set Up The Series 965
Setting up the Series 965 is a simple process. First set the DIP switches to match your input type. Refer to the orientation below and Page 16 for the In parameter. Next, configure the 965's features to your application in the Setup Menu, then enter values in the Operating Menu. Both tasks use the MODE key to move through the menus and the Up-arrow/Down-arrow keys to select data.
Before entering information in the Setup menu, set the dFL parameter. If selected as US: °F, proportion band in degrees, reset rate are the defaults. If selected as SI: °C, proportional band in % of span, derivative and integral are the defaults. Changing the dFL prompt will set parameters to their factory default. Document all current parameter settings first. See Appendix 2 in the calibration section to change this parameter.

How to Set the Input Type DIP Switch

The Series 965 input type can be user selectable at any time via a Dual In-line Package (DIP) switch inside the control, located on the left (viewed from the bottom). To set the DIP switch, remove the control chassis from the case. Holding each side of the bezel, press in firmly on the side grips until the tabs release. You may need to rock the bezel back and forth several times to release the chassis.
The locations of the board and switches appear in Figure 21. Refer to the input types below for DIP switch orientation. DIP switch selection must match the sensor selected under the In parameter in the Setup Menu. Set the software selection for the input type to match. See Page 16.

How to Tune and Operate

Auto-tuning (Heat and/or Cool)

The Series 965 can automatically tune the PID parameters to fit the character­istics of your particular thermal system.
The auto-tuning procedure operates on a thermal response value — slow, medium, or fast. Use the slow thermal response when your process does not need to reach set point too rapidly, or if it usually does not often exceed set point. A fast thermal response produces a rapid temperature change over a short period of time.
Once the auto-tune sequence has begun, the Output 1 heat proportional band is set to 0 and the control goes into an on/off mode of control at 90% of the established set point. The displayed set point remains unchanged.
Tuning
NOTE: Set the HSC parame­ter under the Setup Menu to 3 before auto-tuning your control.
°F/2°C
Once the control finishes "learning" the system, it returns to a standard PID control with the PID values automatically set as a result of auto-tuning. See Manual Tuning on the next page to set the cool PID parameters. Any change of the set point, while in auto-tune, re-initiates the auto-tune procedure.

In order for the 965 to successfully complete auto-tune, the process must cross 90% of set point four times within 80 minutes after auto-tune has started. If this does not happen within the 80 minute time limit, the Pb remains at 0 and the control functions in an on/off mode.

Tuning

To start auto-tuning:
1. Press the MODE key until the AUt prompt appears in the data display.
2. Select a thermal response value, 1=slow, 2=medium, and 3=fast, using
the Up-arrow/Down-arrow keys. A thermal response value of 2 satisfacto­rily tunes most thermal systems.
3. Press the MODE key. While the control is in the tuning mode, the lower display alternately displays the normal information and the prompt At. The time between alternations is 1 second.
4. When tuning is complete, the displays return to their previous state and AUt reverts to 0. The 965 installs appropriate PID tuning parameters and saves them in the non-volatile memory. If a mechanical relay or contactor is switching power to the load, a longer cycle time may be desirable to minimize wear on the mechanical components. Typical life of a mechanical relay is 100,000 cycles.
To abort auto-tuning either reset the AUt parameter to 0, press the A/M key
twice, or cycle power off and on. In all cases, aborting auto-tune restores all values to those previous to auto-tuning.

Manual Tuning

For optimum control performance, tune the Series 965 to your thermal system. The tuning settings here are for a broad spectrum of applications; your system may have somewhat different requirements. NOTE: This is a slow procedure,
taking from minutes to hours to obtain optimum value.
NOTE: Tune heating outputs at a set point Tune cooling outputs at a set point
1. Apply power to the Series 965 and enter a set point. Begin with these
Operation parameters: Pb = 1, rE/It = 0.00, rA/dE = 0.00, Ct = 5.0, CAL = 0, AUt= 0.
2. Proportional Band Adjustment: Gradually increase Pb until the upper
display temperature stabilizes to a constant value. The process temperature will not be right on set point because the initial reset value is 0.00 repeats per minute. (When Pb = 0; rE/It and rA/dE1 are inoperative, and the 965 func­tions as a simple ON/OFF control.) The HSC parameter determines the switching differential value.
3. Reset/Integral Adjustment: Gradually increase rE, or decrease It until the
upper display temperature begins to oscillate or "hunt." Then slowly decrease
rE or increase It until the upper display stabilizes again near set point.

WATLOW Series 965 User's Manual
4. Cycle Time Adjustment: Set Ct as required. Faster cycle times sometimes
achieve the best system control. However, if a mechanical contactor or solenoid is switching power to the load, a longer cycle time may be desirable
Tuning and Operating, Chapter 5
Page 23
to minimize wear on the mechanical components. Experiment until the cycle time is consistent with the quality of control you want. Ct will not appear on units with a process output.
5. Rate/Derivative Adjustment: Increase rA/dE to 1.00 minute. Then raise set point by 20° to 30°F, or 11° to 17°C. Observe the system's approach to set point. If the load temperature overshoots set point, increase rA/dE to
2.00 minutes. Raise set point by 20 to 30°F, or 11 to 17°C and watch the approach to the
new set point. If you increase rA/dE1 too much, approach to set point is very sluggish. Repeat as necessary until the system rises to the new set point without overshooting or approaching the set point too slowly.
6. Calibration Offset Adjustment: You may want your system to control to a temperature other than the value coming from the input sensor. If so, measure the difference between that temperature (perhaps at another point in the system) and the process value showing in the upper display. Then enter the CAL offset value you want. Calibration offset adds or subtracts degrees from the value of the input signal.

Manual and Automatic Operation

To change from auto to manual operation, press the A/M key twice. Manual operation provides open loop control of the outputs from a range of
-100% (full cooling) to 100% (full heating) power. The 965 allows a negative
output value only with a Cl (Cool) selection on either Ot1 or Ot2 = Con. Auto­matic operation provides closed loop on/off or PID control. When the operator transfers from a closed loop to an open loop, the 965 retains the power level from the closed loop control, referred to as bumpless transfer. When the 965 returns to closed loop control, it restores the previous set point temperature.

Tuning/Operation

NOTE: Process input does not have sensor break protection or bumpless transfer. Outputs selected as Ht (reverse acting) will be full on if sensor break occurs.
The MN LED indicates auto or manual operation. When the LED is on, the control is in manual operation. When the LED is off, it is in automatic operation. When the LED flashes, press the key again within five seconds to complete the change in operation.
When a sensor opens, the 965 switches from automatic to manual operation if LOC = 0, 1 or 2.
• If LOC = 0, 1 or 2 and the bumpless transfer conditions are met, process has
stabilized at a ± 5% power level for a 2 minute period prior to sensor break provided the power level is less than 75%. The 965 switches to manual operation at the last automatic power level.
• If LOC = 3 or 4, the 965 switches into manual operation at 0% power (outputs
disabled).
When transferring from auto to manual operation, the control output(s) remains stable ("bumpless," smooth transition). When transferring from manual to automatic operation, the control output(s) may change significantly. In manual operation, the output value appears in the lower display; in automatic operation, the set point appears.

Auto/Man-Alarms

Using Alarms

The Series 965 has two alarm types, Process or Deviation. A process alarm sets an absolute temperature. When the process exceeds that absolute tempera­ture limit an alarm occurs. The process alarm set points may be independently
NOTE: When the alarm output is de­energized, the NO contact is open in the alarm condition.
set high and low. Under the Setup Menu, select the type of alarm output with the Ot2 parameter. PrA = Process Alarm Pr = Process alarm with no alarm message displayed
A Deviation alarm alerts the operator when the process strays too far from set point. The operator can enter independent high and low alarm settings. The reference for the deviation alarm is the set point. Any change in set point causes a corresponding shift in the deviation alarm. dEA = Deviation Alarm dE = Deviation alarm with no alarm message displayed
Example: If your set point is 100°F/38°C, and a deviation alarm is set at +7°F/ 4°C as the high limit, and -5°F/3°C as the low limit, the high alarm trips at 107°F/
41.6°C, and the low alarm at 95°F/35°C. If you change the set point to 130°F/
54.4°C, the alarms follow the set point and trip at 137°F/59°C and 125°F/51.6°C. Under the Setup Menu, select the type of alarm output with the Ot2 parameter.
dEA = Deviation Alarm dE = Deviation alarm with no alarm message displayed
Figure 26 ­Alarm Display Examples
Both process and deviation alarms can be latching or non-latching. When the alarm condition is removed a non-latching alarm automatically clears the alarm output. You must manually clear a latching alarm before it will disappear.
Flashing "LO" or "HI" in the lower display indicates an alarm when Ot2 = PrA or dEA. The lower display alternately shows information from the current parameter and the "LO" or "HI" alarm message at one second intervals. The alarm output is de-energized and the L2 LED is lit.
To clear an alarm…
First correct the alarm condition, then…
• If the alarm is latching…
Clear it manually; press the A/M key once as soon as the process temperature is inside the HSA parameter alarm limit.
• If the alarm is non-latching…
The alarm clears itself automatically as soon as the process temperature is inside the HSA parameter alarm limit.

Alarm Silencing is available with the deviation alarm. When SIL is selected as "on," the operator must manually disable the alarm by pressing the A/M key once on initial power up (in either the latching or non-latching mode). Alarm silencing disables the alarm output relay. However, the L2 LED (also the lower display when Ot2 = dEA) shows an alarm condition until the process value is within the "safe" region of the deviation alarm band. Once the process value crosses into the "safe" region, both a latching or a non-latching alarm is ready. Any future deviation outside this safe band triggers an alarm.

Error Code Messages ç

Four dashes, "- - - -", in the upper display indicate a Series 965 error. The error code is visible in the lower display.

Error Codes

NOTE:
An alarm display will be masked by an error condition or when the control is in the Calibration or
Setup Menus.
Er 2 - Sensor underrange error (only applies to RTD units)
The sensor input generated a value lower than the allowable signal range, or the A/D circuitry malfunctioned. Enter a valid input. Make sure the In parameter (selected in the Setup menu) and the DIP switch settings both match your sensor. Refer to the table below for the appropriate input type and range.
Er 4 - Configuration error
The unit's microprocessor is faulty; call the factory.
Er 5 - Non volatile checksum error
The nonvolatile memory checksum discovered a checksum error. Unless a momentary power interruption occurred while the unit was storing data, the nonvolatile memory is bad. Call the factory.
Er 6 - A/D underflow error
The A/D circuit is underrange. An open or reversed polarity sensor is the most likely cause. Check the sensor; if the connection is good and functions properly, call the factory. The A/D underrange voltage is too low to convert an A/D signal. Make sure the In parameter matches your sensor and DIP switches are set
accordingly.
Er 7 - A/D overflow error
The A/D circuit is overrange. An open or reversed polarity sensor is the most likely cause. Check the sensor; if the connection is good, and the sensor functions properly, call the factory. The A/D overrange voltage is too high to convert an A/D signal. Make sure the In parameter matches your sensor and DIP switches are set accordingly.
ç
CAUTION: Electrical noise or a noise event, vibra­tion or excess environmental moisture or tem­perature may cause Series 965 errors to occur. If the cause of an error is not otherwise apparent, check for these.

For wiring guidelines, refer to the IEEE Standard No. 518-1982, available from IEEE, Inc. 345 East 47th Street, New York, NY 10017.

Noise Sources

• Switches and relay contacts operating inductive loads such as motors, coils, solenoids, and relays, etc.
• Thyristors or other semiconductor devices which are not zero crossover-fired (randomly-fired or phase angle-fired devices).
• All welding machinery and heavy current carrying conductors.
• Fluorescent and neon lights.
Noise Guidelines

Decreasing Noise Sensitivity

• Physical separation and wire routing must be given careful consideration in planning the system layout. For example, ac power supply lines should be bundled together and physically kept separate from input signal lines (sensor lines). A 12" (305 mm) minimum separation is usually effective. Keep all switched output signal lines (high power level) separate from input signal lines (sensor lines). Cross other wiring at 90° angles whenever crossing lines is unavoidable.
• Look at the system layout; identify and locate electrical noise sources such as solenoids, relay contacts, motors, etc. Route the wire bundles and cables as far away as possible from these noise sources. Don't mount relays or switching devices close to a microprocessor control. Don't have phase angle-fired devices in the same electrical enclosure or on the same power line with the control.
• Shielded cables should be used for all low power signal lines to protect from magnetic and electrostatic coupling of noise. Some simple pointers are:
Whenever possible, run low level signal lines unbroken from signal source
to the control circuit.
Connect the shield to the control circuit common at the control end only.
Never leave the shield unconnected at both ends. Never connect both shield ends to a common or ground.
Maintain shield continuity at daisy chain connection points by reconnecting
the broken shield.
Assume no electrostatic shielding when using the shield as a signal return.
If you must do this, use triaxial cable (electrostatically shielded coaxial cable).

Wiring Guide

• Use twisted pair wire any time control circuit signals must travel over two feet, or when you bundle them parallel with other wires.
• Select the size or gauge of wire by calculating the maximum circuit current and choosing the gauge meeting that requirement. Using greatly larger wire sizes than required generally increases the likelihood of electrostatic (capaci­tance) coupling of noise.
• Eliminate ground loops in the entire control system. You can spot the obvious loops by studying the "as-built" wiring diagram. There are also not­so-obvious ground loops resulting from connecting internal circuit commons in the manufacturer's equipment.
• Do not daisy chain ac power (or return) lines, or output signal (or return) lines to multiple control circuits. Use a direct line from the power source to each input requiring ac power. Avoid paralleling L1 (power lead) and L2 (return lead) to load power solenoids, contactors, and control circuits. If an applica­tion uses L1 (power lead) to switch a load, L2 (return lead) has the same switched signal and could couple unwanted noise into a control circuit.
• Tie all ground terminals together with one lead (usually green wire) tied to ground at one point. Don't connect ground to the control case if the control is in a grounded enclosure (preventing ground loops).
• Do not confuse chassis grounds (safety ground) with control circuit commons or with ac supply L2 (return or neutral line). Each return system wiring must be separate. Absolutely never use chassis ground (safety) as a conductor to return circuit current.

Eliminating Noise

• Use "snubbers" (QUENCHARC™ P/N: 0804-0147-0000) to filter out noise generated by relays, relay contacts, solenoids, motors, etc. A snubber is a simple filter device using a 0.1µf, 600 volt, non-polarized capacitor in series with a 100, 1/2 watt resistor. The device can be used on ac or dc circuits to effectively dampen noise at its source.
• The ultimate protection is an "uninterruptable" power supply. This "senses"
the ac power line; when the line fluctuates, a battery powered 60Hz inverted circuit takes over, supplying power within one-half to one cycle of the ac line; very expensive.

Appendix 2 Calibration
Before attempting to calibrate, make sure you read through the procedures carefully and have the proper equipment called for in each procedure. Make sure the DIP switches are
in the proper position per input type. See Figure 21, Page 14.

Entering the Calibration Menu

In the Calibration Menu, various input signals must be supplied for the control to go through its auto calibration. The calibration menu can only be entered from the LOC parameter in the Setup Menu. Press the Up-arrow/Down-arrow keys simultaneously for 3 seconds (± 1 second). The CAL parameter appears in the lower display with "no" in the upper display.

Calibration

Figure 27 ­Entering the Calibration Menu.
Any inadvertent change in the displayed data, when pressing the Up-arrow/ Down-arrow keys, is ignored. Calibration values won't be retained unless you are in the manual mode. Press the Up-arrow/Down-arrow key to change the upper display to “YES.” Press MODE to enter the calibration sequence.
Upon entering the calibration menu, the upper display window indicates CAL. It continues to indicate CAL (with the exception of calibration of the 4-20mA output) while the operator walks through the entire calibration parameter list. While calibrating the 4-20mA output, the upper display contains a numeric value to be slewed up or down until the output value is correct. The control uses the lower display to prompt the user as to what the input should be.
With the dFL parameter, select either U.S. parameters which include displaying °F, rate, reset, and proportional band in degrees or units. Or select SI (System International) and the displayed parameters are °C, integral, derivative, and proportional band in % of span.
NOTE: Calibration values will not be retained unless you are in the MANUAL mode. Do not enter the MAN­UAL mode until you are at the correct input parameters.
NOTE:
While in the Calibra­tion Menu, the control output(s) go off and the alarm output (if present) is on.
Once the information has been properly established and maintained for at least 5 to 10 seconds, the MODE key may then be used to display the next prompt. After the final input is established, press the MODE key twice to return the unit to the configuration menu at the top of the parameter list.

Series 965 Quick Reference

Use this page as a quick reference for the Series 965. Tear along the perforation.
Keys & Displays
Upper Display: Red or green, LED display,
indicating either process actual temperature, the operating parameter values, or an open sensor.
Lower Display: Red or green, four digit LED display, indicating the set point, output value, parameters for data in the upper display, or error and alarm codes.
MODE Key: Steps the control through the operating menu, also, in the Auto mode, new data is self entering in 5 sec­onds.
Process Alarm sets an absolute temperature. When the process exceeds that absolute temperature limit an alarm occurs. The process alarm set points may be independently set high and low. Under the Setup menu, select the type of alarm output with the Ot2 parameter. PrA = Process alarm Pr = Process alarm with no alarm message displayed
Deviation Alarm: Alerts the operator when the process strays too far from set point. The operator can enter independent high and low alarm settings. The reference for a deviation alarm is set point. Any change in set point causes a corresponding shift in the deviation alarm. Under the Setup menu, select the type of alarm output with the Ot2 parameter. dEA = Deviation alarm dE = Deviation alarm with no alarm message displayed
Alarm Silencing is available with the deviation alarm. When SIL is selected as "on," the operator must manually disable the alarm by pressing the A/M key once on initial power up (in either the latching or non-latching mode). Alarm silencing disables the alarm output relay. However, the L2 LED (also the lower display when Ot2 = dEA) shows an alarm condition until the process value is within the "safe" region of
Up-arrow Key: Increases the value of the displayed pa­rameter. New data is self entering in 5 seconds.
Up-arrow/Down-arrow Keys: When pressed simultaneously for 3 seconds, the Setup Menu appears displaying the LOC parameter. Continue to press the UP/DOWN keys, and the Calibration menu appears.
Down-arrow Key: Decreases the value of the displayed pa­rameter. New data is self enter­ing in 5 seconds.
Alarms
the deviation alarm band. Once the process value crosses into the "safe" region, both a latching or a non-latching alarm is ready. Any future deviation outside this safe band triggers an alarm. Both alarms can be latching or non-latching. When the alarm condition is removed a non-latching alarm automatically clears the alarm output. You must manually clear a latching alarm before it will disappear.
Press once

and

alarm.
To clear an alarm...
• First correct the alarm condition, then...
If the alarm is latching... Clear it manually; press the A/M key once as soon as the process temperature is inside the HSA parameter alarm limit.
If the alarm is non-latching... The alarm clears itself automatically as soon as the process temperature is inside the HSA parameter alarm limit.
L1: When lit it indicates Output 1 is energized. L2: When lit it indicates when Output 2 is active. This
output can be configured as a control or alarm output.
MN: Lit when in manual operation. Press A/M twice to enter Automatic. When blinking, press A/M to toggle between Auto and Manual. After 5 seconds without key activations it returns to its previous state.
A/M Key: Press once to clear latched alarms and toggles between Auto and Manual. If pressed within 5 seconds it changes from Auto to Manual or vice versa. While in Manual, percent power is in the lower display.
Flashing LO or HI in the lower display indicates an alarm when Ot2 = PrA or dEA. The lower display alternately shows information from the current parameter and a LO or HI alarm mes­sage at one second intervals. The alarm output is de-energized, L2 is lit.
Error Codes
Four dashes, "- - - -" or a negative number, in the upper display indicate a Series 965 error. The error code is visible in the lower display.
Er 2 - Sensor underrange error (For RTD units only)
The sensor input generated a value lower than the allowable signal range, or the A/D circuitry malfunctioned. Enter a valid input. Make sure the In parameter matches your sensor and DIP switch setting. Refer to the table below for the appropriate input type and range.
Er 4 - Configuration error
The unit's microprocessor is faulty; call the factory.
Er 5 - Non volatile checksum error
The nonvolatile memory checksum discovered a checksum error. Unless a momentary power interruption occurred while the unit was storing data, the nonvolatile memory is bad. Call the factory.
Er 6 - A/D underflow error
The A/D circuit is underrange. An open or reversed polarity sensor is the most likely cause. Check the sensor; if the connection is good and functions properly, call the factory. The A/D underrange voltage is too low to convert an A/D signal. Make sure the In parameter matches your sensor and the DIP switches are set accordingly.
Er 7 - A/D overflow error
The A/D circuit is overrange. An open or reversed polarity sensor is the most likely cause. Check the sensor; if the connection is good and the sensor functions properly, call the factory. The A/D overrange voltage is too high to convert an A/D signal. Make sure the In parameter matches your sensor and the DIP switches are set accordingly.
