RATE
DPS3300 series tracks the rate of process change/minute for each channel. This
rate is displayed by first pushing the CH. SEL key to select the channel whose rate
is desired. Once the channel has been selected, push DATA key. The display will
briefly read 'cx-rate' (x=channel #), and then the monitored rate for that channel.
LIMITS
DPS3300 series units support limit alarms on all the channels. These limits can be
programmed over the entire range of selected thermocouple or scale. Thus, not only
can these units be used as monitors but they can also provide control capability on
each channel. Limit values are programmed during CH Setup. Also programmed during CH Setup is the dead-band
(hysteresis) value. This keeps the relays from chattering when the process is hovering just around the limit.
OUTPUTS
DPS3300 Series units can be ordered with either open collector outputs or electro-mechanical relays. Check model
number printed on the unit.
Open Collector Option
Whenever a limit is reached an open collector output provides a 5 Vdc signal at 50ma. on the output connector, eg.. Limit
#4 provides its 5 volt output signal between pins 7 & 8 of the card edge.

Electro-Mechanical Relay Option
These relays are programmed during CH Setup to operate as either Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC). The
default setting is Normally Open. Each of these limit relays provides a switched output whenever a limit is reached. The
maximum rating for a 120Vac unit is 120Vac @ 0.5 amp or 28 Vdc @ 1.0 amp. A 240Vac unit is rated at 240Vac @ 0.25
amp. or 28Vdc @ 1.0 amp.
