Content C-1 Temperature Monitoring Module PART-C Function Description Part C describes the functions of the module. IM 34M06H63-01E 2nd Edition The module has four monitoring functions, which can be configured to suit different applications. This part first describes the monitoring mode that defines the relationship among the monitoring functions, and then describes each of the functions.
C1-1 C1. Monitoring Mode The monitoring mode defines the relationship among the four monitoring functions provided in this module. Each monitoring function may be operated independently; alternatively, channels 1 and 2, or channels 3 and 4 may be combined to implement Two-input Changeover mode.
C1-2 C1.1 Single-input Mode The single-input mode is the standard operation mode of the module where each channel operates independently. With the required conditions defined, a channel measures a temperature and provides it as a PV value. For details of each function, see Section C2, "Input-related Functions."...
Page 85
C1-3 The module reads the output from a thermocouple, RTD, or some other temperature sensor and processes it according to the characteristics of the sensor used. It also provides an input filtering function for reducing noise and hence, stabilizing the input, as well as a biasing function to correct sensor-dependent input deviation over the entire input range.
C1-4 C1.2 Two-input Changeover Mode The two-input changeover mode uses two channels of monitoring functions to monitor a single measurement value, by switching between two inputs. In this mode, only parameters of even (2, 4) channels are used for operation. For details on the functions, see Section C2, "Input-related Functions."...

C1-7 C1.3 Disabled Mode The Disabled mode suspends one or both monitoring functions for a pair of two channels. The Odd Channel Disabled mode disables channel 1 for a pair of channels 1 and 2, or channel 3 for a pair of channels 3 and 4. The Both Channels Disabled mode disables both channels, that is, channels 1 and 2 for a pair of channels 1 and 2, or channels 3 and 4 for a pair of channels 3 and 4.

C2-4 C2.1 Input Type Selection Input types may be selected either using hardware switches (for all channels collectively) or using parameters (for individual channels). Input type selection using parameters is available only when switches SW1-4 = OFF and SW5 = 0. Input type selection by parameters uses the Input Type Selection (IN) parameter.

C2-7 C2.2 Power Supply Frequency Selection Power supply frequency may be set either by switches or parameters. Power supply frequency selection by parameters is available only when switches SW1-4 = OFF and SW5=0. The default value is then determined by SW1-2. An appropriate power supply frequency setting reduces the interference of common-mode noise from the power supply on input signals.
C2-8 C2.3 Input Range Setting For each instrument range selected, you may define an input range, which is the actual temperature range to be monitored, by specifying upper (RH) and lower (RL) limits within the instrument range. Some input types such as thermocouple W, however, allow an input range that is wider than the instrument range.
C2-9 C2.4 PV Range Setting (for two-input changeover mode) The PV range setting defines the range of the output process value in Two-input Changeover mode, in cases where the two input signals have different input ranges. The PV range setting cannot be changed in Single-input mode. For example, if input 1 (channel 1) has input range of 0-500C (RL=0C;...
C2-10 C2.5 Burnout Detection Burnout detection checks for an open circuit on an input. For thermocouple or RTD input, you may define a burnout condition by specifying a threshold value and the direction of change in the input value. For DC voltage input, burnout detection is not available.
Page 101
C2-11 CAUTION Burnout detection is not performed when external input (EXPV) is selected. CAUTION If the Burnout Selection parameter is set to ‘Down Scale’ for a thermocouple range, a burnout may not be detected in high temperature environments exceeding 40C. In this situation, set the alarm type to ‘Lower Limit’, set the alarm setting to an appropriate value, and use the alarm for burnout detection instead.
C2-12 C2.6 Reference Junction Compensation If an external reference point device is used to provide better reference junction compensation, set Reference Junction Compensation to ‘Fixed Value’, and set Reference Junction Temperature. Table C2.10 Reference Junction Compensation Parameters Data Position Number Default Symbol Description...
C2-13 C2.7 Broken-line Biasing The broken-line biasing function biases an input value according to its magnitude. This function is especially useful for correcting input values from a degraded sensor. As shown in the figure below, you will define three input values (X) and specify a bias value (Y) for each input value.
C2-14 C2.8 Fixed Biasing The fixed biasing function adds a constant bias to input values. The resultant values are used for monitoring. This function is especially useful when a sensor output is always lower than true values by a fixed amount due to the physical condition of the sensor. For example, it may be used when the temperature of a material in a furnace is indirectly determined by measuring the ambient temperature in the furnace, where a fixed bias is added to the ambient temperature to represent the temperature of the material.
C2-15 C2.9 Square Root Extraction The square root extraction function is especially useful for converting differential pressures measured with a restriction flowmeter using an orifice or nozzle into flow rates. You can also specify a low-cut point below which no square root extraction is done. 100.0% Slope 1 Input...
C2-16 C2.10 Input Filtering The input filtering function removes noise from input signals. It is especially useful to remove high frequency noise from flow rate or pressure signals. It performs 1st order delay calculation for filtering. As shown in Figure C2.6, more noise is removed when a larger time-constant is specified. Use the input filtering function in a noisy environment when corrections must be performed constantly.
C2-17 C2.11 Two-input Changeover The two-input changeover function has three modes, which are selected by the SELMD parameter. Table C2.15 Two-input Changeover Parameters Data Position Number Default Symbol Description Unit Data Range Attribute Stored Value CH1 CH2 CH3 CH4 761 SELMD Two-input None 0: Automatic changeover using ...
Page 108
C2-18 If two inputs have different values, switching between the two inputs may result in an abrupt change in the PV value or a non-continuous PV value. To prevent this, this mode uses the average of the two inputs to compute the PV value in the overlapping range, as shown in the formula above.
C2-19 C2.12 External Input The input value used in monitoring may be switched to an external input, which may be, say, processed data from a CPU module. An external input must fall within the range of -5.0% to 105.0% of (SL to SH). Use the EXPV/PV parameter to switch between external input and normal input.

C3-5 C3.2 Wait Function When the wait function is specified, the alarm function is temporarily disabled (enters wait state) for a specified period after the following events: - Power up - Change in SP number (SPNO) Figure C3.2 below shows an example of the alarm function when the alarm type is set to Lower Limit with Waiting.
C3-6 C3.3 Alarm Delay Timer The alarm delay timer function delays the generation of an alarm. The alarm turns on only if the alarm condition persists until a delay timer has timed out. If an alarm condition disappears before a delay timer has timed out, the timer resets. Changing an alarm type or powering down also resets the delay timer.
C4-1 Disable Backup Function The Disable Backup Function (NBKUP) parameter can be used to suspend storing of parameters to the EEPROM. The module has two types of parameters: stored and non-stored. Stored parameters preserve their data even when the module is powered down. For details on whether a parameter is stored or non-stored, see the individual parameter table or the list of registers.

D1-1 D1. Before Performing Checks The temperature monitoring module stores many preset values internally. Sometimes, temporary preset values are written for testing purposes, such as during trial runs and program debugging, and are left uncorrected. They are stored in the module, even after powering off.
D2-1 D2. Troubleshooting a Specific Problem This section describes what you should do if you observe the following phenomena: Input does not change, or fluctuates excessively. The ALM or ERR LED indicator is lit or flashing. For details on the self-diagnosis function and corrective measures, see Section C5, "Self-diagnosis Function."...
