  • Page 18: Navigation

    5.0 Navigation This navigation section provides an overview of the various values that are available to set-up desired operating characteristics that establish how the instrument is desired to perform, and to review the operating state of the desired performance. Although navigation is described for keypad operation - the same operating characteristics set using the keypad are supported by serial communication - for which a detailed description is contained in the Serial Protocol section of this document.
  • Page 20 5.2 Navigate Select The selection screens provide a secondary navigation layer for the operator to specify whether viewing or programming is desired for a port that is an input, an output or is now OFF. The screens shown below are displayed as a result of having pressed the [SELECT] key while viewing the home screen.
  • Page 21 6.0 Process and Set-Point Values This Process Values (PV) and Set-Point Values (SP) section provides a detailed description of the various system map values that are used to set-up the instruments desired operating characteristics that establish how the instrument is desired to perform, and discusses the various process values that show the operating state that are the outcome of the set-up.
  • Page 22 6.1 PV Measurements This section describes special screen services - and describes each of PV Measurements which are functions of a signal input into the instrument. 6.1.1 Change Home Screen Value The present value shown on the home screen is indicated by a star (*) prefix. To change which value is displayed - point the cursor to the desired value and press the [SELECT] key.
  • Page 23 6.2 PV Program Value This section describes how to program the various PV values - which determine input signal service, alarm functions, measured value communication type, logging type, and the port name. PV Program values are static and updated only after the value is saved. 6.2.1 Value Programming 6.2.1.1 Program a value by pointing the cursor to its line and pressing the [SELECT] key.
  • Page 24 6.2.2.3 When the port is desired be an active output from being an active input, or become an active input from being an active output - contact factory for interface module re-configuration. 6.2.2.4 Active Signal Input An active signal input Port Type has two separate fields - input signal type field, and sensor excitation voltage field.
  • Page 25 An option is available that performs a two-point frequency interpolation using the analog signal process to be interpolated as shown above. The pulse signal is input directly in Hz (pulses/sec) to evolve engineering rates. 6.2.9 PV Rate Filter This value determines the amount of filtering applied to rate or value input measurements. Filtering ranges from +0 to -20 dbHz (1-10 sec) of noise and jitter suppression.

  • Page 26: Sp Status

    6.3 SP Status This screen provides output port status information to the operator and is shown below. Refer to the Control Functions section which describes in greater detail the set-up, operation and termination. 6.3.1 SP Function This control service type reflects the selected service type that has been programmed for the port or channel. It identifies the type of process control the output is required to perform, and the amount of the control output as appropriate.

  • Page 27: Sp Programming

    6.4 SP Programming This section describes how to program the various SP values which determine output signal service, linked input signal source, output service function, set-points, units de-interpolation, and the port name. SP Program values are static and updated only after a changed value is saved. 6.4.1 Value Programming 6.4.1.1 Program a value by pointing the cursor to its line and pressing the [SELECT] key.

  • Page 37: Process Controls

    8.0 Process Controls This section provides a detailed description and operation of the instruments various control functions.
  • Page 38 8.1 Manual Control Manual control is a continuous manually oriented process - performed on a port-by-port basis. This control type causes an SP Rate signal programmed by the operator to be output to a controller. The controllers’ delivery rate signal is independently monitored and may be indicated by a linked port PV Rate.
  • Page 39 8.2 Batch Control Batch processing is a non-continuous process that is started, conducted, and terminated when a desired quantity has completed delivery. The operator may stop batch delivery at any time prior to completion. 8.2.1 Set-Up The operator programs values shown above for each output port that is desired to perform batch delivery. 8.2.1.1 SP Function - select Batch 8.2.1.2 SP Batch - set desired delivery quantity 8.2.2 Start Batch...
  • Page 40 8.2.3.2 The operator may terminate any channels that continue with batching remaining in process by first returning to the home screen, then pressing the [STOP] key once. Note that the 'B' control indicators on the home screen stop blinking indicating that all batch processes are stopped. 8.2.4 Batch Type Selection The Global Selections for Control Service includes a "Batch Type"...
  • Page 41 8.3 Blend Control <PRELIMINARY> Blending is a continuous process that when started, causes slave SP Rates to be proportionate to the actual rate being delivered by the master. CAUTION Blending operate parameters are saved when power is lost allowing blending to continue after power is restored unless Pwr SP Clear is ON.
  • Page 42 8.3.1.2 Master Input Port Set-up The operator navigates to the output programming screen linked to the selected master input port, and sets the output port, linked to the input master, SP Function to Rate, and desired SP Rate. 8.3.1.3 Slave Channels Set-up The operator navigates to each desired slave output port and sets each SP Function to Blend, then sets the desired SP Blend rate percentage referenced to the master channels actual delivery rate.
  • Page 43 8.4 Monitor Service Monitor is an output port service that acquires the PV Rate from its linked input port, de-interpolates the rate to a selected output Port Type signal, and outputs the signal to other system process monitoring equipment. When an output port link is zero - it is not linked to an input port. The output port then functions to search all input ports for at least one alarm.

  • Page 44: Proportional-Integral-Differential (Pid)

    8.5 PID Rate Control The function of PID control is to produce output signals that will cause the rate of a process observed by the linked input port to be held constant to equal the output ports SP Rate. Proportional-Integral-Differential (PID) is a continuous rate control process performed by the combination of an output port whose SP Function is set for PID;...
