HP125 SERIES 4.4 MOUNTING THE DCM MODULE Instruments with the plastic wall mount housing are mounted to a flat surface as follows: For dimensional details of case see Appendix 9.2 page 34 1. Remove the front cover. Using a flat screwdriver, carefully unscrew the four slotted plastic screws.
HP125 SERIES 4.4.2 INPUT/OUTPUT WIRING Wire the Analog Outputs as required. See 4.4 below for information on output selection. Connect the RS-232 Serial Output if desired. Only 2 wires are required if the output is needed for transmitting information only. A third wire is added for bi-directional communications with the serial port 1.

HP125 SERIES BASIC BLOCK DIAGRAM THEORY OF OPERATION 5.1 PROBE ASSEMBLY See Figure 5-1, the Probe Assy. Basic Block Diagram. The Probe Assembly is a stand-alone, completely self-contained measuring system. All units include the RH and Temperature Sensors, and some optional probes include a Pressure Sensor as well.
HP125 SERIES 5.2 HP125 ELECTRONICS MODULE (Type DCM) Although the Probe may be used as a stand-alone measuring device, it also may be connected to the type DCM remote display unit, for additional capability. The complete HP125 system consists of the Probe, the interconnecting 3 foot (1meter) cable, and the electronics module.
See the Installation section for further information if necessary. Use of the HP125 series of probes is extremely simple. There are no controls to operate during normal use, as these devices are designed for long-term unattended operation. With the Analog Outputs,...
HP125 SERIES 6.4 USING THE RS-232C SERIAL PORT TO REPROGRAM YOUR SETTINGS Note: If the Factory Default settings are satisfactory, there is no reason to perform any programming. The Sentry series air header system alarm is very versatile. Through the Serial Port, the user may view current settings, change factory set parameters, or receive an automatic update of system measurements and alarm status.
HP125 SERIES 6.6 PC with USB Port only If your PC does not have an available serial port, you can use the ETI accessory: RSCBL (RS232 cable) plus the USB (USB to SERIAL Converter). The ETI kit provides the 3 stripped RS232 wires, labeled and the wire ends properly tinned- to be connected to the ASHA plus a USB converter jack to plug into your PC USB port.
HP125 SERIES 6.7 PROGRAMMING THE DCM If you do not see a window similar to the one shown above, you will not be able to program this instrument Check your terminal emulation program, the power supply, and check the interconnecting cable wiring as shown in Table 5 -1 above.
HP125 SERIES To set Output 2, Enter “2 In the example, Output 2 is set to represent pressure by entering “7” when prompted. Pressure is represented in the ASHA as PSIG units. You will be prompted to enter a psig value for the low setting.
HP125 SERIES To set the Alarm setpoints enter “M”. The current settings will be displayed. Then follow the prompts to enter the setpoints. After you have made the alarm setting, enter S to save or X to exit. 6.7.2 CALIBRATING THE ANALOG OUTPUTS If you have a precise multimeter or voltmeter, you can check the accuracy and scaling of the analog outputs.
HP125 SERIES 7.0 MAINTENANCE Pressurized gas risk Hazardous chemical and gas risk Electrical risk Ensure adequate safety procedures have been followed Before starting any work ensure the sensor has been powered down. Check to ensure that there is no pressure on the probe.
HP125 SERIES 7.1.2 SENSOR REASSEMBLY Carefully plug the new sensor circuit board into the socket, noting that it is installed at the correct angle and that the keyway is properly aligned. Using your thumb or a small screwdriver or other tool, press it down sufficiently so that it is fully inserted in the socket.
