  • Page 2 In some cases, however, when the wall of the housing is particularly thick, the safety catch on the I-DE may prove difficult to clip into position. In such instances, the thin O-ring provided may be used in place of the thick O-ring.

  • Page 4: Quick Start

    Quickstart The calibrated I-DE outputs: 4 mA when the motor gearbox is at minimum position, 20 mA when the motor gearbox is at maximum position. The 16 mA is distributed proportionally across the full stroke of the inlet valves. When a resistance of 500 Ω is applied, the output is 2 -10 V.

  • Page 5: Introduction And Summary

    The stroke of the motor gearbox can be calibrated in the I-DE. Using an analogue current signal, the I-DE is able to report the position of the motor gearbox back to the process computer or control box. The I-DE also features a digital output.

  • Page 6: Wiring Diagram

    The reset input has to be connected. This can be done by means of an external signal or by means of one of the li- mit switches, as long as this limit switch is powered by the same power supply as the I-DE. See figure 3 for the wiring diagram.
  • Page 7 2 Wiring Diagram 2.3 Current ouput The current output of the I-DE can be used as shown in the wiring diagram in figure 4. As should be clear from figure 4 it is absolutely not per- mitted to connect an additional (external) power supply to the current output.

    3 Operation Various LED (flash) patterns are used as a means to distinguish between the different statuses of the I-DE. All of the statu- ses will be discussed in this section, including the corresponding flash patterns. Normal operation Constant green light.

    3 Operation 3.2 I-DE flow diagram Figure 7 shows a flow diagram of the I-DE. This diagram employs the symbols described for the LED and distinguishes between the different push button actions. NOTE! The LED pattern displayed in response to each "two second action" on the push button.

  • Page 12: Error Mode

    After correction, the power can be restored to the I-DE and the I-DE should function correctly. 3.5 Calibration mode The I-DE can be calibrated via the main menu. The main menu can be accessed from "Normal operation" or from "Error mode".
  • Page 13 3.5.1 Reset I-DE position (Main menu 1) If the I-DE has lost its position, it can be reset to the calibrated reset point. To do this, follow the steps below. NOTE: The step-by-step plan below assumes that the I-DE is currently in «main menu 1» (see Figure 7).
  • Page 14 The I-DE can be calibrated with a start, end and reset position. To do this, follow the steps below. If one of the limit switches is connected to the reset input of the I-DE (see section 2.4), the reset position will be saved automatically.
  • Page 15 3 Operation 3.5.3 Adjusting the I-DE current range (Main menu 3) The current range of the I-DE is adjustable, with the user able to choose between a range of 0-20 mA and 4-20 mA. To do this, follow the steps below.
  • Page 16 3.5.4 Set I-DE current output start position (Main menu 4) It is possible to configure the position at which the I-DE starts to output a current. Users can choose from 2 options: option 1: the start position at 0 mA or 4 mA option 2: the start position at 20 mA To do this, follow the steps below.
  • Page 17 NOTE: The step-by-step plan below assumes that the I-DE is currently in «main menu 1» (see Figure 7). If the I-DE is in «Normal operation» or «Error mode», «Main menu 1» can be accessed by pushing and holding the button for two seconds.

    I-DE. When the power is restored, the I-DE will then check whether the motor gearbox was turned during the power failure. If the motor was turned prior to the power being restored to the I-DE, the I-DE will report the error «position lost».
  • Page 19 The I-DE can be calibrated with a start, end and reset position. To do this, follow the steps below. If one of the limit switches is connected to the reset input of the I-DE (see section 2.4), the reset position will be saved automatically.
