Overfill sensors must still be operational. Bypass cards can be removed or added, with a limit of 10 registered to an FT7000 at any given time. The same card may be used with several different FT7000 units. Refer to the Bypass Card Pairing Procedure for more information.
ENABLED Accessories The FT7000 monitor can be set up to utilize either a Deadman switch or Emergency Stop switch. The switch must be Normally Open. A deadman switch will require the driver to actively hold a switch during the entirety of the loading process. Releasing the switch while loading will cause the FT7000 to go non- permissive.

FT7000, RACK MONITOR MANUAL 11033PA-ATEX o If one or both cards are lost and replacement card(s) are ordered, the replacement card(s) must be paired to the monitor by following the bypass card pairing procedure below. o The monitor may only be paired with one overfill bypass card and one ground bypass card at a time.
FT7000, RACK MONITOR MANUAL 11033PA-ATEX Managing Bypass Cards The FT7000 Rack Monitor will come from the factory with two Ground Bypass cards and two Overfill bypass cards paired to the monitor. These cards do not require pairing and will work with the monitor out of the box.
AVERTISSEMENT- L’UTILISATION DU FT7000 D’UNE MANIÈRE NON DÉFINI DANS CE MANUEL POURRAIT NUIRE À LA SÉCURITÉ While loading a trailer, the front of the FT7000 will indicate the status of the monitor’s outputs, as well as the trailer’s sensors and accessories.

FT7000, RACK MONITOR MANUAL 11033PA-ATEX 2. PERMIT – The second row of indicators will illuminate green to reflect the state of the permit relays. While the indicators are on, the permit relays are energized. 3. 5WIRE SENSOR MODE – Illuminates to indicate a trailer having 5 wire sensors has been attached and identified.
Once a valid ground device is found, and the overfill sensors are detected as dry, the monitor will become permissive. The FT7000 will remain permissive until any requirement is lost. During a normal load, the FT7000 will remain permissive throughout the entire load, then become non-permissive as the trailer disconnects.
If a terminal operator has deemed the trailer as safe, and chooses to bypass the safety checks provided by the FT7000, the operator will hold their bypass card to the bypass indicator. Once the FT7000 has read the bypass card, and verified it is paired, the unit will enter bypass mode.
FT7000, RACK MONITOR MANUAL 11033PA-ATEX FAQ & Troubleshooting Lost bypass card • o If the lost bypass card needs to be deactivated for security reasons, the operator will need to repair all remaining bypass cards. Powering on the monitor while in pairing mode clears all paired bypass cards.
