1 INTRODUCTION HD50CR is a relative or differential low pressure transmitter and data logger designed for wall flush-mounting. Measuring range ±125 Pa. A silicon piezoresistive sensor with high accuracy and temperature compensation is used, which allows excellent linearity, repeatability and stability over the time. The auto-zeroing feature allows stable measurements over the time without the need to recalibrate.
2 DESCRIPTION Pressure inputs Terminal header / ETHERNET port LEDs Inputs for pressure calibration Display Keyboard USB port with protective cap Fixing holes Input for optional T/RH probe Buttons: Scrolls the real time measurement on the display. In menu, increases the displayed value or move to the next parameter. Displays the statistical functions (MIN, MAX, AVG).
3 INSTALLATION Make a 196 x 70 mm cut in the wall, at least 46 mm deep, and 4 holes according to the drilling pattern shown below, then wall mount the instrument by using the 4 holes on the front panel. The connections on the upper part of the housing are as follows: ETHERNET port RS485 port...
Current analog Voltage analog Power supply output connection output connection connection The three analog outputs are associated with the first three quantities of the list of se- lected quantities in the CHANNELS panel of the "web server" (see chapter 5) or, equivalently, with the quantities of index CH1, CH2 and CH3 set in the F200 menu via the front keyboard of the instrument (see chapter 7).

4 CONNECTION TO THE LOCAL NETWORK The instrument can be connected to the local network via Ethernet interface (optionally Wi-Fi, on request; the two interfaces are alternatives, they cannot be used simultane- ously). To connect the instrument to an Ethernet network, connect the RJ45 connector of the instrument to a socket of the local network via a standard Ethernet cable.

data in the database. Each user can be assigned a different password for using the software. There are also three levels of access (Administrator, Super-user and standard User); for each level, the allowed operations can be defined. The HD35AP-CFR21 option works with USB hardware key to be connected to any PC con- nected to the same local network of the PC in which the basic software is installed.
5 ALARMS For each detected quantity, two alarm thresholds can be set by the user. The alarm is generated if the measured value falls below the lower threshold or rises above the up- per threshold. Exceeding a threshold is signaled: •...

for a configurable time. Once the set time has elapsed, the buzzer will resume sounding or not depending on whether the alarm condition is still present or not. The following example shows the silencing of the buzzer with Latch option disabled. Upper threshold Hysteresis Hysteresis...
6 STATISTICAL FUNCTIONS The instrument calculates and displays the maximum (MAX), minimum (MIN) and average (AVG) value of the detected measurements. In order to display the statistical information, press FUNC/: the instrument shows the maximum value of the displayed quantity. To scroll the maximum values of the various quantities use the ...
7 CALIBRATION The instrument calibrates automatically at regular intervals (default 60 minutes, the in- terval is configurable) the zero of the differential pressure, temporarily disconnecting the pressure inputs through an internal solenoid valve. Via the Fc00 menu (see chapter 7) it is possible to perform a manual calibration in one or two points.
8 WEB SERVER The instrument has an integrated web server through which you can configure the in- strument and view the real time measurements from any PC, tablet or smartphone connected to the same local network of the instrument by simply using a web browser. To connect to the web server, type the IP address of the instrument in the address bar of the web browser of your device (PC, tablet, smartphone, …).
8.1 SETTINGS MENU The SETTINGS menu allows viewing the instrument general information and configuring the Modbus parameters, the user code, the belonging group, the logging parameters, the alarms and the units of measurement. It also allows choosing the measurements to be stored in the internal memory and displayed in real time (Monitor) and in what order.

User code Belonging group Modbus parameters Button to refresh the settings Press “Apply” to send the changes to the instrument • MEASURES panel Selection of the quantities to be displayed cyclically on the instrument display. For each quantity, a custom name can be defined. In the panel, the resolution and the unit of measurement of each quantity are also indicated.

If the Buzzer Latch option is enabled, the buzzer continues to sound even after the alarm condition has ceased. The Alarm ack field allows silencing the buzzer for the set number of minutes. • UNITS panel Setting of the temperature (°C or °F) and differential pressure (mbar, bar, Pa, hPa, kPa, atm, mmHg, mmH O, inHg, inH O, kgf/cm...

8.2 MONITOR MENU The MONITOR menu allows viewing the real time measurements, both in graphic and table form. The measurements and the corresponding date/time are updated at inter- vals equal to the logging interval. The measurements acquired by the Monitor function can be saved in a log file and exported in CSV format.

Note: if the communication with the Cloud or the HDServer1 is used, the maximum number of “clients” with proprietary or MODBUS TCP/IP protocol is nine. Note: actually, the number of MODBUS TCP/IP connections that can be active at the same time is equal to the set number of sockets less one, because a socket is always kept free to accept new connection requests (if all the sockets are active, the socket corresponding to the oldest request is released when a new connection is accepted).
