2.1. Features
The TROVIS 6412 and 6442 Process Control Stations are microprocessor-controlled devices
used to automate industrial and process engineering plants. They are suitable not only for
constructing simple control loops, but for solving complex control problems as well. The TROVIS
6412 and TROVIS 6442 Process Control Stations only differ from each other in their design
(see section 2.2.).
Function blocks which are permanently stored in memory allow the user to easily define
pre-configured control systems and select various functions. The control mode selected deter-
mines which configuration blocks can be set, and these configuration blocks in turn determine
the adjustable parameters.
The process control stations are available with various input boards with either three or four
analog inputs. Furthermore, each control station has three binary inputs.
The analog inputs of the input boards are suitable for either standardized current and voltage
signals, potentiometers, Pt 100 temperature sensors, thermocouples or transmitter supply. The
input board 4 in the Technical data (page 8 and following) is no longer available. As a result,
the use of thermocouples is restricted.
Standard outputs include: One continuous control output, one on-off/three-step output and one
binary output for error messages.
The functional range of the process control stations can be optionally enhanced with the
following: One additional continuous control output, one analog output, two limit switches and
two binary outputs.
The process control stations can be operated, configured, and parameterized directly on the
control panel via several keys. The functions associated with the respective keys can be
disabled.
An optional program - TROVIS 6482 - allows configuration and parameterization of the
process control station via a PC (see page 56). Apart from this, all configuration blocks and
parameters can also be transferred to the process control stations, using a configuration and
parameterization pen (COPA pen) (see page 58).
The process control stations can be equipped with a RS-485 serial interface for use in a higher
level process control system.
