All safety recommendations appearing in this manual must be followed to ensure personal safety and prevent damage to the instrument or system. If the instrument is used in a manner other than that specified in this manual, the device’s safety protection may not be effective. NOVUS AUTOMATION 4/42...
PRESENTATION N2000 is a controller with universal features. In a single model, it accepts most sensors and signals used in industry and provides the main types of output to act on several processes. There are 2 ways to configure it: 1.
The values of all parameters are saved in protected memory. The changed values are saved when moving on to the next parameter. SP value is also saved when changing parameters or every 25 seconds. NOVUS AUTOMATION 6/42...
I/O5 – Current output (0-20 mA or 4-20 mA), digital output, digital input • I/O6 – Digital input and digital output • Note: When you select to run a function via Digital Input, the controller no longer responds to the command for the equivalent function from the keyboard. NOVUS AUTOMATION 7/42...
Defines the channel as a Digital Input (DI) with the function of enabling or disabling the control and alarm outputs (RvN = YES / no). Contact Closed: Outputs enabled / YES. Open Contact: Outputs off / NO. NOVUS AUTOMATION 8/42...
It is triggered when the measured PV value is below the point defined by: (SP – SPA1) Using Alarm 1 as an example. difk – Differential maximum value alarm. • It is triggered when the measured PV value is above the point defined by: (SP + SPA1) NOVUS AUTOMATION 9/42...
EXTRACTION OF THE SQUARE ROOT Feature available by selecting the SQRT option in the input type. In this case, the controller displays the value corresponding to the square root of the current signal applied to the input terminals. NOVUS AUTOMATION 10/42...
The MAN indicator lights up when the control switches to Manual mode. 4.14 24 VDC AUXILIARY SUPPLY The controller provides a 24 Vdc voltage source to excite field transmitters. The current capacity of this source is 25 mA. Available on terminals 17 and 18. NOVUS AUTOMATION 11/42...
In any other connection condition, the use of USB is possible, but requires careful analysis by the person responsible for its installation. For MONITORING over long periods and with inputs and outputs connected, we recommend using the RS485 interface, available or optional on most of our products. NOVUS AUTOMATION 12/42...
It is important that these connections are made properly, with the sensor or signal wires securely attached to the terminals on the rear panel. THERMOCOUPLE (T/C) AND 50 mV The opposite figure shows how to make the connections. If it is necessary to extend the length of the thermocouple, use appropriate compensating cables.

It must be enabled via the I/O5 or I/O6 channels (when they are used as a digital input and configured with the RSP function). The input impedance of this resource is 100 R (Zin = 100 R). Figure 9 NOVUS AUTOMATION 14/42...
When channel I/O5 has been programmed as a digital output, its load capacity limit must be respected, in accordance with the specification. Figure 10 DIGITAL INPUTS To activate I/O5 and I/O6 as a digital input, connect a switch or equivalent (dry contact) to their terminals. Figure 11 Figure 12 NOVUS AUTOMATION 15/42...
The master password is composed of the last 3 digits of the serial number of the controller plus the number 9000. The master password for equipment with serial number 07154321 is: 9321. Note: It is recommended to disable or suspend control (rvn = NO) whenever you need to change the configuration. NOVUS AUTOMATION 16/42...
Soft Start function. Allows you to set the time interval (in seconds) during which the controller will limit the rise speed of the control sfst output (MV). Soft Start When set to 0, the function will be disabled. NOVUS AUTOMATION 17/42...
The display flashes when the device is in alarm. flsK Allows you to signal the occurrence of alarm conditions by flashing the PV indication on the display screen. You must select the Flash alarm numbers that will have this feature. NOVUS AUTOMATION 18/42...

RAMPS AND SOAKS PROGRAM It allows you to create a behavioral profile for the process. Each program is formed by a set of up to 7 segments, called a RAMPS AND SOAKS PROGRAM, which is defined by SP values and time intervals. Once you have defined the program and run it, the controller will generate the SP according to the program.
If tuning does not result in satisfactory control, the table below provides instructions on how to correct the behavior of the process: PARAMETER VERIFIED PROBLEM SOLUTION Slow response Decrease Proportional Band Great oscillation Increase Slow response Increase Integration Rate Great oscillation Decrease Slow response or instability Decrease Derivative Time Great oscillation Increase Table 8 NOVUS AUTOMATION 23/42...
