- Page 3 NEW! QUIK-CAL™ PUSHBUTTON ZERO-SET AND CALIBRATION-SET The new Ti17C and Ti18C tension indicators/transducer interfaces are built with a new labor-saving technology called Quik-Cal! They do not have potentiometers for zero and calibration settings. Instead, they have pushbuttons. Push the button once, for one second, and you are done! No tension display is needed.

Page 7: General Description
Ti17C and Ti18C Tension Indicators are designed to provide an isolated interface between any type of DFE tension transducer and a variable speed drive system, computer, tension recorder, or other devices for tension control and display purposes. They also have a separate output to allow the user to connect an analog meter to indicate operating tension. -

Page 14: Cover Stud Hardware
The male stud sticking out of the cover requires solid ground bonding to the case for safety. See Figure 7. An M3 star washer (DFE P/N 124-0040) must be installed over the stud before inserting the cover into the base enclosure. -
Page 15: Installation Instructions
Cable shielding must be attached to the SHIELD connection on the terminal block, or to an appropriately grounded enclosure. In addition to the above, the DFE Model Ti18C is UL/cUL LISTED only in its full enclosure version with cover. 2.4 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Drill your mounting holes for the mounting style you will be using. -
Page 16: Transducer Voltage Selection
2.5 TRANSDUCER VOLTAGE SELECTION (Refer to Figure 8) The tension transducers are excited by either the standard 5 Vdc or, 10 Vdc with the Extended Range option or LT (low tension) transducer. Do NOT use the 10 Vdc excitation unless the transducers are LT type transducers or have the !!CAUTION extended range option! The transducers MAY be DAMAGED! Set the transducer excitation jumpers as follows:... -
Page 17: Standard Electrical Connections
2.7 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS - STANDARD The indicator is designed to provide a 0-1mA damped meter output, and either a 0-10V isolated OR a 4-20mA isolated output. Make your wiring connections as follows: 1. The insulation rating of all line voltage wiring must be at least 600V 2. -

Page 21: Calibration And Adjustment Of Tension Limit Switch
3.4 CALIBRATION AND ADJUSTMENT OF TENSION LIMIT SWITCH OPTION The Tension Limit Switch (TLS) option is used to provide a visual LED indication when the tension output exceeds one value or goes below another value. You can also connect an external relay as shown in Section 2.8 to sound an external alarm, turn the machine off, and so forth. -

3.4 CALIBRATION AND ADJUSTMENT OF TENSION LIMIT SWITCH OPTION continued... A. If the TLS LED is off after setting your tension level, TLS low is either deactivated, or set below the tension level you have achieved. Slowly turn RT800 clockwise until the LED turns on. Now, slowly turn RT800 counterclockwise until the LED turns off. -
Page 23: Section Four Operating Instructions
SECTION 4 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Your tension interface / indicator will indicate tension in your system without any further operator intervention. It is a good idea to make a check at roughly one month intervals to verify that no one has changed the calibration. -
Page 24: Section Five Care And Maintenance
SECTION 5 CARE AND MAINTENANCE It is not necessary to perform any type of maintenance on the indicator. However, you may find it worthwhile to observe whether there is a buildup of dust, debris, or moisture on or near the unit after a period of time. If so, you may consider putting the unit in a more appropriate location. -

It should be on steadily within one second of power application. The green status LED should not be flashing during operation except when pressing ZERO or CALIBRATION pushbuttons (LED will flash once indicating acceptance of ZERO or CAL). Continuous flashing is an indication of a problem, contact DFE technical support if this condition is observed. -
