3.4 Connections to the relay outputs Warning

If external electrical circuits that are subject to the danger of physical contact are incorrectly connected to the relay contacts, there may be a danger of life threaten ing electric shock. Elec trical circuits are regarded to be subject to the danger of physical contact when there are voltages higher than the Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV).
Pay attention to the following points during installation: Electrical circuits subject to the danger of physic al contact
must only be connected by a qualified electrician.
Electrical circuits subject to the danger of physic al contact
must only be connected when they are voltage-free.
The terminal strip of the MIQ/R6 output module has two
segments for relay outputs with three relay connections each (R1-R3 and R4-R6). If electrical circuits subject to the danger of physical contact are switched with a relay, no circuit that is not subject to this danger (e. g. the MIQ/CHV module) may be operated in the same output segment of the MIQ/R6. For such applications use the second output segment of the MIQ/R6.
Switching voltages and switching currents on the relay
contacts must not exceed the values specified in chapter 6 T
ECHNICAL DATA. Protect electrical cir cuits against currents that
are too high with an electrical fuse.
Only single-phase consumers can be switched with the relays.
Under no circumstances must multiphase consumers be switched with the aid of several relays (example three-phase current driven pumps). Always switch multiphase consumers via a protective relay.
The MIQ/R6 may only be opened after the installation if all
external voltages have been previously switched off.

4 Settings

The MIQ/R6 module has six relay outputs. Relay outputs operate as openers (normally closed) or closers
(normally open).
On the terminal, you can:
assign a name to the outputs (see section 4.2).link outputs with sensors (see section 4.3)delete links of outputs with sensors (see section 4.4)adjust outputs (see section 4.5)check the condition of the outputs (see section 4.6)
Basic information on how to use relay outputs is given in section 4.1.
Note
The general operating principles are given in the system operating manual or in the component operating manual of the terminal components.

4.1 Basic information on relay functions

In this chapter, you will find general basic information concerning the following relay functions:
Monitoring (see section 4.1.1)Limit indicator (see section 4.1.2)Proportional output (see section 4.1.3)

4.1.1 Event monitoring

When using a relay for monitor ing, a relay action (Open, Close) occurs when certain states occur. This function is suitable, e.g. for the monitoring of errors in the system.
Note
For monitoring functions, use the relay preferably as an opener (normally closed, see section 4.5.1). In the case of an error, the relay opens. As a result, the monitoring function operates even if, e.g. the supply voltage fails.

4.1.2 Limit indicator

With a limit indicator, a relay switches when a specified limiting value is exceeded or undercut.
Limit indicators can be used in the following way: Monitoring a limiting value using a relay:
when a limiting value (upper or lower limiting value) is exceeded or undercut, a relay switches. The Open or Close relay actions are possible in each case (see page 4-3).
Monitoring two limiting values using two relays:
If the upper limiting valu e is exceeded or undercut , a relay switc hes, and if the lower limiting value is exceeded or undercut, anoth er relay switches. The Open or Close relay actions are possi ble in each case (see page 4-3).
Note
If the simple monitoring function (Open, Close) with one or two relays is not sufficient, use proportional output (see section 4.1.3).

A switching delay (t) can be set up for each relay for switching processes. This is the time period for which a limiting value must be exceeded before the relay switches. This prevents f requent switching if the measured values are close to the limiting value.

4.1.3 Proportional output

In the case of proportional output, a relay switches cycli cally on and off in a defined measured value range (proportional range). At the same time, the relay switches with a:
duration of operation that corresponds to the measured value
(pulse-width output, see page 4-6) or
switching frequency (frequency output, see page 4-7).
Proportional outputs can be used in the following way: Output with one relay:
An output range is defined with a Start value and an End value. No output takes place above and below the output range (see page 4-
5).
Output with two relays :
An output range is defined for each relay with a St art value and an End val ue. One relay outputs in the upper output range and a further relay in the lower output range (see page 4-5).

Pulse width output The output of the pulse width is used, e.g. for controlling valves.
Pulse-width regulation changes the duration of operation (t
) of the
on
output signal. Depending on the posi ti on of the measured value in the proportional range, the relay is operated for a longer or shorter time period.

This means the relay operates for a longer period.
If the measured value is at the beginning of the proportional range
(Start value), the turn-on duration (t

Frequency output Switching frequency out put is used, e.g. for controlling dosing pumps.
In contrast to the pulse-width output, not the pulse width is modulated with frequency output but the switchi ng frequency of t he out put si gnal. Depending on the position of the measured value in the proportional range, the relay is switched more often or less often.
Fig. 4-5 Relay output of frequency output
While the selected switching duration (ton = 0.3 s) always remains constant, the switching frequency at which the rel ay switches changes depending on the measured value.
If the measured value is at the end of the proportional range (End
value), the switching frequency is higher.
If the measured value is at the beginning of the proportional range
(Start value ), the switching frequency is low.

Characteristic curves Through the select ion of the Start val ue and End value, the proportional
output can be operated with a posi tive or negative character istic curve. Positive characteristic cur ve:
Select the End value to be greater than the Start value. The turn-on duration or frequency increases with an increasing measured value (see page 4-9).
Negative characteristic curve:
Select the End value to be smaller than the Start value. The turn-on duration or frequency decreases with an increasing measured value (see page 4-10).
The maximum values for the pulse width or switching frequency are assigned to the End value and the minimum values for turn-on duration or frequency are assigned to the Start value.

4.5.7 Cleaning Note

When using the MIQ/CHV PLUS valve module, it is best to set the Cleaning function directly at the valve output (V) of the MIQ/CHV PLUS (see operating manual of the MIQ/CHV PLUS). The relay can then be used for other purposes.

Function The Cleaning function enabl es the time controlled automatic start of t he
sensor cleaning function with the aid of a relay of the MIQ/R6. The relay controls the MIQ/CHV (PLUS) valve modul e and switches on or off the compressed air for the CH sensor cleaning head.
In order to set up the Cleaning function for a relay output, the relay output must be linked with a sensor (see section 4.3).
The relay assigned to the MIQ/R6 compon ent always works as a closer relay.
Testing the
operativeness
The cleaning cycle consists of Cleaning durati on and Adjustment time. During the cleaning cycle the Clean display flashes. The output s linked
with this sensor are frozen. The maintenance condition (see section 4.8) is active.
After the Cleaning duration, the relay is opened. During the following Adjustment time the outputs remain blocked. The outputs linked with this sensor are only released when the cleaning cycle is completed. The Clean display disappears. The maintenance condition is finished.
You can test the operativeness of the cleaning system as follows: manually open or close the relay with the Manual contr ol f unctio n ( see section 4.5.9) and, while doing so, check the behavior of the cleaning system.
Alternatively, you can test the operati veness of the cl eaning system by checking the performance of the function at the start time set up (reference time ± interval). To perfor m a tes t immediat ely, yo u can set the reference time so that the next cleaning will start in a few minutes (settings: see following table).

The next cleaning cycle will be performed at the time set up.
Note
In case of a power failure, all relays open. The cleaning cycle is canceled. The outputs linked with th e sensor change to the non -active condition (see section 4.7.2). As soon as the power is available, the outputs are released again. The next cleaning cycle will be performed at the time set up.

4.7 Behavior of linked outputs

4.7.1 Behavior in case of error

For linked relay outputs, you c an determine the behavior of the outputs in case of errors.
Depending on the use of the output, the beha vior in case of errors is set in the following menus:
Output menu
Frequency controller Frequency with error (see section 4.5.5) Pulse-width output Error pulse width (see section 4.5.6)
Error events The defined behavior occurs in the case of the following events or
conditions:
Freezing the states of
the outputs
Resumption of the
normal function
The linked sensor does not supply a valid measured value
(display of Init, Error, "-----", or OFL)
Communication of the MIQ/R6 with t he IQ S
ENSOR NET controller is
disturbed for longer than 2 minutes.
The supply voltage for the MIQ/R6 is too low.In the Recorder functi on, the measured value of the li nked sensor is
outside the range between Start value and End value.
Independent of the specified behav ior at error, the followi ng conditions lead to the freezing of the output states:
The linked sensor is in the maintenance condition
(display of Cal, Clean, or a flashing measured value).
Communication of the MIQ/R6 with t he IQ S
ENSOR NET controller is
disturbed for a short time. After the malfunction has lasted for 2 minutes the output changes to the specified behavior in the case of an error.
The relay output automatically re turns to its normal state as soon as all error conditions are over and all conditions causing a freezing of the outputs are cleared.
