SIGNAL, DATA AND CONTACT CLOSURE CONNECTIONS Typical Input Connections The most common input sensor types are shown below, with a wiring guide, to assist you in the installation of your totaliser. Only one input is shown, as they both have identical input circuitry. Because the pullup resistors are not independent ( both inputs will be pulled up or down), you should choose sensors which require the same pullup format, if using both inputs.
PROGRAMMING YOUR DISPLAY The Ratemeter offers useful flexibility in scaling and display presentation, and all parameters are adjusted by using the three contact closure programming pushbuttons. It is worth spending a little time familiarising yourself with the menu and the programming technique before carrying out a full calibration.
The Programming Menu As you enter the menu, prompts will appear on the display. Because they are formed with simple 7 segment displays, they do not appear to be familiar letter shapes, but are described in detail here. SCALE This is the scale factor, which allows you to multiply or divide the input frequency (in Hz.) by a constant.
Application Example Below is a commonly encountered application, with details of suggested configurations, to aid in commissioning your ratemeter. Please feel free to call our Application Engineering Department for assistance with your particular application, if you so wish, and we shall be pleased to help you.

INSTALLATION If possible position the display away from heat and direct sunlight on the display face. The displays should not be exposed to substances liable to damage uPVC, acrylic or glass. If mounted outside, the display should be protected by a shroud to limit direct falls of rain, the cooling effect of which can give rise to the display sucking in moisture.
MOUNTING POSITIONS Case sizes are subject to change, so we recommend you refer to our datasheet at http://www.london-electronics.com/pdf/1700.pdf for latest details General specifications for the 1700 series For the standard-stock single line displays: Case Material : uPVC, welded.

TROUBLE SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE The Large displays have been designed to provide a long trouble-free life and require no routine maintenance. An annual calibration check is recommended. The front lens may be cleaned with a proprietary window cleaner, and the case may be hosed down, and cleaned with a cloth dampened with mild detergent.
In the event of a defect during the warranty period, the unit should be returned, freight( and all duties and taxes ) prepaid by the Buyer to the authorised London Electronics Ltd. distributor from where the unit was purchased. The Distributor, at its option, will repair or replace the defective unit. The unit will be returned to the Buyer with freight charges prepaid by the distributor.
