1.0 Step by Step Installation Guide Install PT2008 Monitor to a wall or panel using 4 of the mounting bracket provided. See figure 1 for mounting holes and enclosure dimensions. Install the Dipole Antenna on top of the enclosure. If external high gain antenna is installed then connect using coax cable with surge arrestor.
1.1 OVERVIEW Model PT2008 series “Wireless” monitor & controller is designed to monitor and display data from remote mounted Ultra 1000 Series (wireless) sensors (toxic and Combustibles). Controller can communicate with up to 24 detectors on the wireless network. The controller features a large LCD display, 6 fully programmable alarm relay contacts, and a communication or sensor fault relay.
1.2 DATA DISPLAY PT2008 Controller displays sensor location tags ( or default channel numbers) and the sensor readings. For controller configured for more than 8 wireless detectors , data is displayed eight channels at a time. Each screen displays data for 10 seconds and then display is switched for next 8 channels and so on.

2.0 INSTALLATION AND START UP PT2008 series is a wall mount controller. The enclosure is rated Nema 4x weatherproof and can be mounted outdoors. Refer to figure 1 for overall enclosure dimension and mounting holes. The mounting feet for the fiberglass enclosure are provided separately.
2.4 WIRING TO ALARM STATION (Typical for Toxic and Combustible) Figure 4 shows a sample wiring diagram to connect PT2008 alarm relays to an Alarm Station. The typical alarm station consists of 2 distinct color strobe light and a buzzer or siren.

3.2.2 Alarms PT2008 monitor is equipped with four (4) alarm relay contacts. The monitor activates the alarm relays when any of the sensors exceeds the programmed alarm set point. Also, the LEDs on the front panel will also light up for visual alarm indication.
3.2.3 Alarm Reset Once the gas concentration has dropped below the alarm setpoint the relay will deactivate itself. However, this will occur only if the relay is configured as non-latching (NL). If the relay is configured latching then it must be deactivated manually. To deactivate the latching alarm simply press and hold RESET switch on the front panel for few seconds.
4.0 Edit System Configuration To modify system configuration or parameters press and hold the “PGRM” key and the following configuration menu is displayed. Use the ▲ and ▼ keys to move the arrow to select the option and press ENTER key. Edit Configuration .
4.2 Alarm Relay Type This option allows the user to select the alarm relays to be Latching or Non-Latching type. Also if the relays to function as Normally Energized or De-Energized mode. Select Relay Type from the edit configuration option list and the following screen is displayed. **** Relay Type *** R #1 ...
The above configuration illustrates that channel / detector with address 13 thru 16 have been disabled, thus making the unit as a 12 channel controller. PT2008 will only display data from 12 detectors on the network. If any additional detectors are installed then simply enable the channel.
1. Start the Hyper Terminal program on the laptop computer as explained in the next section. 2. Connect RS232 port on PT2008 to Serial Comm Port on laptop using standard DB9 Male-Female RS232 cable. 3. From main configuration menu select “Program Location Tags” option and the press ENTER key.

• PT2008 prompts with message that tag names have been saved. • Press “4” key on the keyboard to return to normal operation. PT2008 Controller will now display the new sensor location tags in the first column of the LC display.
Flow Control None 5. Save the current settings by selecting menu option “File – Save As”. Click OK to save the setup. For next time simply click on the “PT2008 Monitor” to recall the settings. Wireless Gas Detection Page 23...
Network / Zone ID is used to avoid the cross talk between multiple sensors and controllers. Cross talk happens if multiple PT2008 Controllers are used within short distance to each other and sensors. A controller and all the associated sensors must have the same network ID in order to communicate properly.
Modbus RTU is a standard protocol for communication between a PLC / Controller and slave devices. This section briefly explains the communication with PT2008 Controller through Modbus RTU protocol. Only the PLC / Controller can make requests to read the contents of the data registers in the controller.

MODBUS Register List Each sensor has 4 MODBUS register block. Register for the sensor are sequential. First register is for current gas reading, second register has sensor status and diagnostics bit map, third is register holding data for the battery voltage. Fourth register is used internally and should not be read by the user’s PLC .

Status Bit Map Register This is a 16 bit integer register. Each bit / byte is used for sensor status and diagnostic information. The MSByte ( Most Significant 8 bits) of this register contains the sensor type code as listed in table 2. The LSByte ( Least Significant 8 bits) defines the status of sensor as shown in the data frame below.
