A serial communication port for each channel is located on the front of the PM IDD 9000. These ports enable communication between the microprocessors on the board and a hand-held Termiflex/ SmartDisplay® via RS422/RS485 communication protocols. Forney also offers a Windows based software package, Terminal Emulator Software (TES), that supports diagnostics and tuning of the flame detection system.
Upon completion of installation, the user must connect the Termiflex/SmartDisplay® to the amplifier and revise the tuning parameters suitable to detect the presence and absence of target flame. User-supplied tuning parameters are stored and remain unchanged until overwritten with new tuning parameters. Figure 1-1 IDD 9000 Block Diagram PM IDD 9000 Flame Amplifier 372001-02 Rev L...

SECTION 2 INSTALLATION This section provides instructions and requirements for installing the Forney PM IDD 9000 assembly. CAUTION: This board contains “STATIC SENSITIVE” components. Use standard electrostatic-discharge (ESD) procedures whenever handling the PCB. WARNING: Ensure all Flame Detector amplifiers, detectors, and cables are installed properly, and the amplifier is programmed exactly as described in this manual.
MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS The PM IDD 9000 amplifier assembly should be installed in an equipment cabinet. If the amplifier is installed in a location where exposure to the elements is likely, a NEMA 4 cabinet should be used. The cabinet shall be located where the amplifier assembly is protected from direct exposure to water, dust and sunlight where the temperature/humidity remain within the ranges listed in the specification section of this manual.

2.3.1 AMPLIFIER UPGRADE WIRING TABLES Upgrading from an IDD-IIIA The IDD-IIIA amplifier is a single channel amplifier that only supports and connects to a single IDD type flame detector. Only one channel of the PM IDD 9000 is needed to replace one IDD-IIIA amplifier. (If a dual channel PM IDD 9000 is used, the bottom board is Channel 1(CH1) and the top board is Channel 2 (CH2).

PM-DR6101E select the type of flame detector, and the Termiflex is used to select detector type for the PM IDD9000 channels. The bottom board of the PM IDD9000 is Channel 1 (CH 1) and the top board is Channel 2 (CH 2).
2.3.2 GROUNDING THE PM IDD 9000 Proper grounding assures proper operation and is in wiring the THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP IDD 9000 Amplifier. NOTICE: Improper grounding will cause check failures even when wiring and tuning is correct. 2.3.2.1 GROUNDING NEW APPLICATIONS New applications have the shield connected to the detector head in the cable connector which ensures proper grounding of the PM-IDD 9000.
*If the flame detector is directly installed on the sight pipe (without electrical insulating nipple), remove the shield connection to the ground on the amplifier end. Do NOT ground on both ends. The IDD 9000 has a Point of UNITY GROUND where all grounds converge. The hex standoff at the lower left corner of the IDD 9000 is the UNITY GROUND Point.
FLAME DETECTOR CONNECTIONS Connect the cable from the flame detector head to the J4 terminal along the left side of the amplifier chassis as indicated below in Table 2-9 and Figures 2-4 thru 2-7. NOTICE: Connecting/wiring a UV-4 detector head to the IDD detector terminals will damage the associated channel board.
The detector cable must be in sealtight (or equivalent) conduit to avoid ingress of moisture or corrosive atmosphere to the connector. See Figure 2-3 for example. Figure 2-3 Typical Installation with Sealtight Fitted PM IDD 9000 Flame Amplifier 372001-02 Rev L...
2.5.1 CONNECTING IDD DETECTOR HEADS The IDD 9000 supports the IDD-II, IDD-IIL, IDD-IIU, IDD-J, IDD-UV, IDD-Ultra or an IDD-K. Wire each channel accordingly per IDD Detector Head as shown. Figure 2-4 IDD Detector Head Wiring PM IDD 9000 Flame Amplifier 372001-02 Rev L...
CONNECTING ONE IDD DETECTOR HEAD 2.5.2 TO BOTH IDD 9000 CHANNELS One IDD Detector head can be wired as shown below to facilitate independent setting up a flame relay on each channel. Figure 2-5 Wiring one IDD Detector Head to both IDD 9000 Channels Diode Recommendation: 1N4002 to 1N4007.
2.5.3 CONNECTING UV-4 DETECTOR HEAD Wire each channel to a UV-4 on the IDD 9000 as shown. Figure 2-6 UV-4 Detector Head Wiring NOTICE: Connecting/wiring a UV-4 detector head to the IDD detector terminals will damage the associated channel board. PM IDD 9000 Flame Amplifier 372001-02 Rev L...
2.5.4 CONNECTING AN IDD AND A UV-4 Either channel of the IDD 9000 can be wired for an IDD or UV-4 detector head. Wire according to the following diagram. Note: Each channel can only operate one detector at a time and should be wired to EITHER an IDD detector OR a UV-4 detector, not both on the same channel.
The AC powered Sensitivity B, “Sense B”, operated input is provided for compatibility with installed wiring when retrofitting legacy Forney flame amplifiers. Powering the Sense B input is equivalent to grounding the “Profile Select 0” (PS0) input. The amplifier will operate with Profile number 0 if the Sense B input is not powered and Profile 1 when the Sense B input is powered.
2.6.3 OPERATING PROFILE SELECT INPUTS - J7 The IDD 9000 Flame Amplifier has non-volatile memory storage for eight sets of operating profiles, numbered from 0 to 7. The stored profiles are intended to allow for easy switching between commonly used burner operating conditions without requiring manual re-tuning of the flame amplifier. The active profile is selected by three 5-Volt logic level inputs, PS2, PS1, and PS0.
OPERATING MODES NOTE: MODE 1: IDD PPS is for operating a single IDD series (flame flicker) type detector only. MODE 2: UV-4 PPS is for operating a single output pulse detector only. All operating profiles are initialized via a profile flag and with the default settings shown. Table 2-11 Operating Profiles Termiflex Display Mode 1: IDD PPS only...
SMARTDISPLAY® TERMINAL WITH 25 PIN CONNECTOR The PM IDD 9000 uses the same detachable Termiflex / SmartDisplay® unit for programming the amplifier as the previous Forney flame amplifiers, however the Termiflex / SmartDisplay® terminal with 25-pin must be reconfigured. NOTICE: If the Termiflex / SmartDisplay®...
The amplifier tuning mode can be reached using either the handheld Termiflex/SmartDisplay® or the Forney Terminal Emulator Software (TES) installed on a laptop computer. Table 3-1 Keypad Commands summarizes the keypad commands available in the IDD 9000 Flame Amplifier firmware program. Utilize the Commissioning Checklist at the end of this document to list tuning parameters used.
If MODE 1 is selected, a sequence of IDD channel tuning screens will follow. If available, use the USB oscilloscope to facilitate IDD tuning. Any oscilloscope with an FFT function may be used, but Forney recommends using the Forney Tuning Kit which includes an oscilloscope with FFT. Reference Forney Publication 372001-10 for more details.
For best tuning and operation, adjust the gain up or down, so the most LEFT arrows are showing and no RIGHT arrows are visible. Use the F1, “DEC” and F2, “INC” keys on the Termiflex to make adjustments. The correct GAIN setting has the signal strength indicator “>” extending from the left side to the approximate center of the display while the burner is operating.

Flame Failure Response Time Delay for Modes 1 and 2 The next screen shows: FFRT = 3.8 • FFRT setting being used. There are three choices Seconds available for the FFRT delay: 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, and 3.8 seconds. • Press F1, “CHG” and enter 1, 2, 3, or 4 (for 3.8) to change the setting.
Regardless of the number of channels being used, both channels must be set to an equal Self-Check Cycle Time. If different self-check cycle times are set, the shorter of the two settings will be effective on both Channels. During self-check the detectors are blinded for a brief interval. Valid Range: After a short delay, the signal levels are compared and 30 - 600...
FUNCTIONS UNAVAILABLE WHILE TUNING The following functions are not available when inside the tuning loop: • The self-check cycle timer is not incremented while inside the tuning loop. The timer resumes counting and the amplifier self-checks when the tuning loop is exited. •...
(Refer to Table 6-1 for a list of fuses mounted on the PCB.) If any other component requires replacement, return the PCB to Forney for repair. 4. Use documentation supplied with the flame detector head to isolate a fault to the head or cable.
STORAGE AND HANDLING REQUIREMENTS Store the PM IDD 9000 amplifier in its shipping box until used. See the specifications section of this manual for storage temperature and humidity ranges.
