Introduction The 4500-RMS microprocessor based controllers are designed to provide a wide range of remote monitoring functions. The controller is programmed through a front panel keypad or via the internet through WebAdvantage and can be configured to provide customized remote monitoring for your application. Your particular unit’s functions can be determined by comparing the units model number to the Model Numbering table listed below.
Electrical Wiring The 4500-RMS monitor has an internal regulated fused power supply that will operate off of 90 to 250 VAC at 47 to 63 Hz on the incoming wiring. Each output relay is individually protected with a replaceable fuse. Relay outputs will equal incoming line voltage.

4-20mA Input Card Wiring The 4-20mA input card requires that the external device sending the 4-20mA input signal(s) supply the power for the loop. The external power source must not exceed 24 volts DC.
III. Front Panel Description NUMBER Keys- Used to enter new values in the SET UP mode and to access desired sub menus. UP/DOWN - Used to cycle through text options to find desired setting. LEFT/RIGHT - Used to cycle through text or setting options to find desired setting. SET UP/RUN - System initializes into RUN mode.
IV. System Operation Overview Operation 4500-RMS controllers have two modes of operation, RUN and SET-UP. - This mode is for normal operation. In the RUN mode the display will show each system’s parameters. If an alarm is present, the ALARM box will flash how many alarms are activated. No settings may be entered or changed in the RUN mode.

History The onboard history allows for viewing the history of the mA readings, relay activations, key-pad activity, calibrations, flow meter hourly and daily logs and alarms for each system present. It is also where Notepad data is entered and reviewed. An initial overview page is displayed showing your current sample interval, the calculated number of days the unit can keep probe history for before losing the oldest.
