Common maintenance procedures
Once a 3500 Monitoring System is operating, it continuously measures and
monitors a variety of supervisory parameters. The boards and components
inside of 3500 modules cannot be repaired in the field and require no calibration.
This section provides information for common tasks required under normal
operating condititions. For procedures that require more detailed information,
refer to the reference manuals listed in Reference manuals for 3500 modules on
page iv.
This section includes the following topics:
•
Changing configuration
•
Replacing modules
•
Verifying channels
3.1
Changing configuration
The process of setting system, module, and channel options so that all the
modules in the 3500 rack work together is called configuration. These settings
are established and adjusted by using the 3500 Rack Configuration program.
Configuration settings are usually protected by security settings. The security
setting for a typical 3500 Monitoring System that is operating normally is
"Change Setpoints in Program Mode". This section shows how to adjust
setpoints. To change other configuration settings, refer to the 3500 Monitoring
System Rack Configuration and Utilities Guide, part number 129777-01.
To adjust alarm setpoints
1. Place the rack in program mode by using the key switch on the Rack
Interface Module.
2. In the 3500 Rack Configuration program, click the Setpoints pushbutton.
3. Click on the monitor module to be adjusted.
The Configuration Setpoint dialog for that monitor module will appear.
