Operation Operation Start up The evaluation unit is not equipped with a switch. Connect the evaluation unit to the mains by the mains cable. After the supply voltage has been applied, the software is initialised. Then the automatic sensor equalisation is carried out („Auto-Equalize“). This process takes about one minute.
Page 48
Operation Display modes After the automatic sensor adjustment has been completed, the unit is ready for operation. The display can take place in three different online modes and one history graphic mode. Use and to switch between the three online display modes. Use F2 to switch between the online graphic display and the history graphic display (see page 4-13).
Operation 4.3.1 Combined display The display shows three lines which can indicate different measurement var- iables at the same time. Channel number Dimension Measurement variable Measurement value Status indication Graphics Info line You can assign an available channel to each line and select a measurement variable to be displayed.
Operation 4.3.1.2 Assigning a channel In order to assign a channel to the selected display line, touch the key with the appropriate channel designation (CH1, CH2 or CH3). In the field for the channel number, the appropriate numeric character ap- pears.
Operation 4.3.1.4 Fixed values If a primary measurement variable is not measured by a sensor, the fixed value configured for it is displayed (see section 5.6.3). In this case, an aster- isk is displayed behind the dimension. 4.3.1.5 Status indication In each line, the status of the measurement values is indicated by icons.
Operation 4.3.2 Measurement value display with six lines In this display mode, three further lines with measurement value indications are shown instead of the graphic. The setting of the display in the six measurement value lines is the same as in the combined display modes.
Operation 4.3.4 Online graphic display In the online graphic display, the measurement value curve of the measure- ment variables of line 1, 2 and 3 for the last 2 hours is presented. To distinguish the curves, they are marked with different symbols (x, □, ○). As only one scaling is used for the measurement value axis, the measure- ment values are multiplied by powers of ten so that they can be presented within the value range of the measurement value scale.
Operation 4.3.5 History graphic display The measurement values recorded in intervals of 10 minutes are written into a database with a memory capacity for 6 months. You can define a period for which you want to present the stored measure- ment value progress curves for up to three measurement categories.
Operation Defining the presentation period ● Open the dialog for editing the presentation period. You can see the period containing data in the database in the display. The point in time of the first and last value for the channel is displayed. Now you can define the presentation period.
Operation 4-10 If the presentation pe- riod you have defined is too short, a mes- sage appears when you leave the history setup. confirm message ing , the period of 2 hours is automatically selected. If the selected presen- tation period includes a period for which no da- ta is available, the fol-...

If the settings are incorrect, a message will appear (see page 4-10). If the settings are correct, the history graphic is displayed. Like in the online graphic mode, the curves are marked with different sym- bols (x, □, ○).
Operation 4-13 Changing the display mode Use F2 to switch between the history graphic mode and the online graphic mode. ● Touch F1 or F2 key. The current functions of theese keys are displayed. ● Then touch F2 key, to switch from online graphic mode to history graphic mode or reverse.
Operation 4-14 Data export ® HYGROPHIL F 5673 safes the measuring data in a SQLite-database. You can copy this database via USB-port to an external data medium and if required convert into a .csv file. 4.4.1 Copy data ● Connect the external medium (e.g. USB-stick) to the USB-port at the back of the evaluation unit.
Operation 4-15 ● Start data export with the key. The database is always transferred completely. The defined presentation pe- riod for the history graphic display has no influence on the data export. ● For further processing the data connect the data medium to your PC via USB-Port.
Operation 4-16 ● Choose in the line below „Input Path“ the file that is to convert. ● Choose in the line below „Output Path“ the folder in which the converted data shall be saved. Instead of the file name „output“ you can enter a desired file name.

If you have any doubts as to the correctness of the measurement values or if there are any malfunctions which cannot be remedied with the measures in- dicated when you touch HELP , please contact the BARTEC BENKE service team. It may be necessary to send the device to the manufacturer for repair.
Error handling Warnings These messages indicate particularities in the measurement conditions. The measurement operation is maintained. A warning sign appears in the info line. pressure sensor should used measurement channel 1 but the pressure sensor is not connect- ed or it is defective. The programmed fixed value for pressure is used.
Error handling HELP key In the case of warnings and errors (but not for limit transgressions), touch HELP to receive details on the reported errors. You also get instruc- tions on how to remedy malfunctions and errors. If there are several errors at the same time, they are displayed in one line af- ter another.

Use soft cleaning cloths only. ● Clean the sensor tip with a soft cloth twisted to a tip, preferably one impregnated with alcohol (isopropyl). BARTEC BENKE recommends OpticPads CT811 supplied by CleanTex, or similar products Moisture-sensitive layer ● Then wipe the surface several times with a soft cloth to remove any residues of alcohol.

Bus systems Bus systems Modbus ® The MODBUS data transfer of the HYGROPHIL F 5673 uses the RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) mode. It is always a MODBUS slave and is physical- ly transmitted through a RS485 connection. The RS485 line has to be con- nected on clamps 414(-) and 415(+).
Page 114
Bus systems The MODBUS slave address has a range from 1 to 247 and could be easily changed by means of the application software. On the same way the baud rate (1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200) and the inter- face’s parity (even, odd, none) can be changed (see section 5.6.7).

Bus systems Function code „03“ answers with registers of measurement variables and parameters as showed in Table 2. The field 60-79 represent states and error codes. Special measurement variables need a more detailed resolution. Therefore some variables are spanned over two 16-bit registers (such val- ues are marked with HI and LO in the 16-/32- bit column).
