DESCRIPTION
The Viconics R850V series step controller is designed for
cost effective, precise modulation of multi-stage control
application. A common application is a multi step electric
duct heater.
An integrated vernier control output will give a precise and
full modulation of the load from 0 to 100% of the total
capacity.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Microcomputer-based design
Adjustable inter-stage delay
Adjustable Vernier ratio
Choice of pulsed or analog
Vernier output
Up to 16 stages
Choice of LIFO or FIFO
sequencing
Test button
MODELS AVAILABLE
The R850-V is available in 2 models
R850V-4
4 stage unit
R850V-8
8 stage unit
If more than 8 stage are required, the R850-V8 can be used
as a master unit with another R850V as a slave unit. Adding
another unit ( R850-V4 or R850-V8 ) can bring the total step
number up to 12 or 16.
INPUT SIGNAL
The R850V has four INPUT dip switch (S1 to S4) to select the control signal input:
They are compatible with industry standard signals.

OVERRIDE TEST BUTTON
The override test button can be used to by-pass the
interstage delay and bring on all stage at one time. This
simplifies the verification of configured maximum number of
stage.
A status LED per step will come on for each of the configured
stage.
