  • Page 7: Pu-E Series Pickup Installation

    PU Series Pickup Installation The PU series pickup is an economical way to monitor motor speed. Its patented design provides for ease of installation in otherwise diffi cult to reach areas. The PU operates from a +5V power supply, producing a 5 volt square wave whose frequency is proportional to speed. This signal is fed into the DM8000 control as a speed or position reference for the microprocessor.

    P1 Terminal Block Descriptions P1-1 (2NC) – This is the normally-closed contact of the second user assignable relay output. This terminal is active only on units ordered with the -R option. P1-2 (2C) – This is the common contact of the second user assignable relay. This terminal is active only on units ordered with the -R option.

  • Page 9: Basic Operating Instructions

    Basic Operating Instructions Rate, Time, and Counter Modes Explained In Rate Mode, the DM8000 measures the input frequency, converts it to the user-defi ned units, and displays the rate in the display window of the user interface. Most applications utilize rate mode and display in units such as gallons-per-minute, feet-per-second, and RPM.

  • Page 10: Detailed Confi Guration Instructions

    Rate Mode is the default display of the unit when power is applied. The DM8000 will spend the majority of its time in this mode. In Rate Mode, the display shows the measured value in the appropriate user- defi ned format of rate, time, or count. As the input signal changes, the display is continuously updated to show the latest measurement.

  • Page 14: Parameter Descriptions

    Parameter Descriptions Parameter 0 – Exit to Running Mode When parameter 0 is selected in Parameter-Selection Mode, the unit will return to Running Mode and display the running value. This should be selected once changes to parameters are completed. Parameter 1 – Model Number (Read Only) This is a number which represents the base model number for the product.
  • Page 15 Parameter 14 – Input Triggers / Prescale This parameter determines how the DM8000 processes the S1 signal input. It specifi ed which signal edge is used for the measurements and the value of the internal frequency divider or prescaler. Modes 3 and 4 should only be used if the input pulse rate exceeds the unit's maximum native pulse rate (see specifi...
  • Page 16 Parameter 23 – Signal Input 1 (S1) Recovery Rate This is the rate at which the display will attempt to recover once the pulse train appears to have stopped. The recovery rate is the number of half seconds which the unit will wait before dividing (Rate Mode) or multiplying (Time Mode) the display value by 2 in an attempt to accurately represent the current speed or time.
  • Page 17 Parameter 32 – Signal Input 2 (S2) Pulses per Revolution This is the number of pulses per revolution. Value may be from 1 to 9999. Parameter 33 – Signal Input 2 (S2) Recovery Rate This is the rate at which the display will attempt to recover once the pulse train appears to have stopped.
  • Page 18 Parameter 40 & 50 – Alarm 1 & 2 Conditions This defi nes which conditions will result in the alarm 1 or alarm 2 outputs being activated. Mode 0: Always Inactive The alarm output will remain in an inactive state. In this state, the NC and C contacts will be internally electrically connected.
  • Page 19 Parameter 42 & 52 – Alarm 1 & 2 Reset Confi guration This setting determines which actions will cause an active alarm to be silenced or reset. Mode 1: No Silencing, Reset On Any Button Press In this mode, an active alarm cannot be silenced. Once the alarm condition ceases to exist, however, any user-interface button may be pressed to cause a manual reset.
  • Page 20 Parameter 95 – Factory Default Command When set to a value of 5, the unit will be reset to factory default settings. This can also be achieved by applying power to the unit with both the Enter and Down buttons depressed. The programming jumper must be in the "On"...
