Danger alarm, or a “first out” Danger alarm message from another monitor, the 6687 stores this data in a separate memory area. A “first out alarm” is the first alarm in an interconnected series of monitors. This feature allows later analysis of the data leading up to the event that caused the Danger alarm.

Monitor Description Front Panel Description The 6687 front panel appears below. It consists of two bar graphs, showing the position of the two input channels relative to the full scale. Above the bar graph, the numeric display shows the actual value for the active input channel. The numeric display automatically switches between the two input channels every two seconds.
Inputs The primary 6687 terminal connections are described below. For a complete listing of the inputs, see “Monitor Backplane” on page 8. Transducer input for each of the two input channels: Displacement sensor sensitivity specified in mV/mil, mV/mm, or mV/µm, adjustable in...
Display Backlight The backlight makes it easy to see the 6687 display, even in dim light. When the system is functioning properly and no signals are in alarm, the backlight is off. However, in case of an alarm or transducer failure, the 6687 automatically turns on the backlight to alert you.
6687 Monitor Displaying Alternate Pages The 6687 has two display pages. The first is the one pictured on page 3, and shows the two bar graphs. To display the second page, press and release the DIS button. There are three fields in the second display page.
Basic Operation Status Messages The 6687 can display a number of status messages that alert you to alarms or to problems with the transducers or monitoring system. This message appears when the transducer voltage signal goes out of the T X FAIL specified range.
6687 Monitor Installation This section contains information specific to installing the 6687. Refer to the manual on 6600 monitor installation for general monitor installation instructions.

The 6691 power supply polarity must match the transducer. For example, if using an Entek IRD 15383, the 6691 must be configured to provide positive voltage. For more information on configuration of the power supply, refer to the manual on 6600 monitor power supplies and backplanes.
The 6691 power supply polarity must match the transducer. For example, if using an Entek IRD 1900 non-contact sensor, the 6691 must be configured to provide negative voltage. The power supply is configured with jumpers on the power supply. For more information on configuration of the power supply, refer to the manual on 6600 monitor power supplies and backplanes.
6687 Monitor Configuration This section describes how you configure the 6687. The 6600 Series protection monitors are easy to configure. All the controls to configure a 6600 monitor are on the front panel of the monitor. The 6687 has two levels of configuration: User menu –...

If the current value does not change when you press the Arrow buttons, then the monitor is protected by the link security feature. Contact your Supervisor for assistance. For more information on the link security feature, contact Entek IRD Customer Support.
The controls to access the User menu and configure the 6687 monitor are all on the front panel of the monitor. See “Front Panel Description” on page 3 for a diagram of the front of the monitor.

Note: With a model 15383 LVDT, you can choose to configure the jumpers on the LVDT to determine whether compressing the plunger means more positive or more negative on the display (upscale or downscale). See “LVDT to Monitor Wiring” on page 9. Entek IRD 6687 Protection Monitor...

Factory menu. Note: The 6687 maintains a minimum of 1 volt and a maximum of 24 volts difference between the TX LO and the TX HI values, so it is not possible for the TX LO value to be greater than the TX HI value.

Under normal (nonalarm) conditions, the relay closes the circuit between the common and the N/C (normally closed) terminals. Under alarm conditions, the relay changes state to close the circuit between the common and the N/O (normally open) terminals. Entek IRD 6687 Protection Monitor...
This section guides you through setting the display scale and zero position for the monitor. The 6687 allows you to choose the display full scale high, full scale low, and zero position for your particular application. This example assumes that the full scale low position (cold position) for the case is at 0 mils.

To obtain the voltage at FS HI, place a spacer between the case and the plunger of the LVTD. The spacer should be the same length as the maximum change in case expansion (1000 mils for this example). Entek IRD 6687 Protection Monitor...

Transducers may be simulated directly at the backplane as shown or elsewhere. If this involves application via barriers, ensure that the barrier rating is not accidentally exceeded. Verify the DC source voltage with a DVM at the monitor terminal strip. Entek IRD 6687 Protection Monitor...
Increase the DC voltage input to the voltage at FS HI. Look at the 6687 front panel display, and note the digital value for channel 1. It should be the same as the FS HI setting ± 2.5% of full scale.
LO alarm setpoints go into alarm when the input value goes below the alarm level. Remember that the 6687 has both LO and HI alarms. You should test both sets of alarms for each channel if you are using them.

Repeat this process to test the LO alarms for channel 1 (if used), and then the HI and LO alarms on channel 2. Remember that the HI alarms use the same alarm relays as the LO alarms. Entek IRD 6687 Protection Monitor...
