Wire Sizes The screw terminals accept wire sizes from 0.5 to 1.5 mm (16 to 22AWG). Hinged covers prevent hands or metal making accidental contact with live wires. The rear terminal screws should be tightened to 0.4Nm (3.5lb in). PV Input (Measuring Input) Do not run input wires together with power cables When shielded cable is used, it should be grounded at one point only Any external components (such as zener barriers, etc) connected between sensor and input terminals may cause errors in...

Power Supply Before connecting the instrument to the power line, make sure that the line voltage corresponds to the description on the identification label For 24V the polarity is not important The power supply input is not fuse protected. This should be provided externally: Instrument fuse ratings are as follows:- For 24 V ac/dc fuse type T rated 2A 250V •...
4. Installation Safety Requirements Safety Symbols Various symbols may be used on the controller. They have the following meaning: Caution, (refer to Equipment protected throughout accompanying documents) by DOUBLE INSULATION Personnel Installation must only be carried out by suitably qualified personnel Enclosure of Live Parts To prevent hands or metal tools touching parts that may be electrically live, the controller must be enclosed in an enclosure.

To ensure compliance with the European EMC directive certain installation precautions are necessary as follows: For general guidance refer to Eurotherm Controls EMC Installation Guide, HA025464. When using relay outputs it may be necessary to fit a filter suitable for suppressing the emissions. The filter requirements will depend on the type of load.
5. Switch On A brief start up sequence consists of a self test in which all elements of the display are illuminated and the software version is shown. What happens next depends on one of two conditions;- The instrument is new and has been supplied un-configured (go to section 5.1) The instrument has been supplied configured in accordance with the Quick Start code (go to section 5.3) Initial Configuration If the controller has not previously been configured it will start up showing the ‘Quick Configuration’...

5.4.4 Auto/Manual/Off Mode Auto mode is the normal closed loop operation where the output is adjusted automatically by the controller in response to a change in the input signal. Manual mode means that the controller output power can be adjusted directly by the user. The input sensor is still connected and reading the PV but the control loop is open.
5.4.5 To Select Manual Operation and Adjust the Output Power Press and hold (Mode) together for more than 1 second. This can only be accessed from the HOME display. t + u ‘Auto’ is shown in the upper display. The lower display will scroll the longer alternate description of this parameter, ie ’...
5.4.6 Other Commonly Used Operator Parameters Available in Level 1 Operator level 1 is designed for day to day operation of the controller and parameters are not protected by a security code. Press to scroll through a list of commonly used parameters. A list of other operating parameters is available each time this button is pressed.
6. Operator Level 2 Level 2 provides access to additional parameters and access to these is protected by a security code. To Enter Level 2 From any display press and hold After a few seconds the display will show ‘Lev 1 G ot o’. Release (If no button is pressed for about 45 seconds the display returns to the HOME display) 0.5sec...
Level 2 Parameters Press to scroll through the list of parameters. The mnemonic of the parameter is shown in the lower display, followed once by a scrolling help message showing a longer description of the parameter. The value of the parameter is shown in the upper display. Press to adjust this value.

Timer A timer can be configured to operate in four different modes. These can be selected in Level 2 using the ‘TM.CFG’ parameter as:- • Dwell Timer Delayed switch on timer • Soft start timer • There are four operating states: Run.

Dwell Timer A dwell timer (TI.CFG = DWELL) is used to control a process at a fixed temperature for a defined period. The action which occurs at the end of the timed period depends on the configuration of the END.T parameter. Temp End State e n d .

Delayed Switch On timer The timer is used to switch on the output power after a set time. When the timer status = run, the control output is off When the timer status = reset, the control output is controlling at SP1 Temperature SP1 (70) Time...
Soft Start Timer The timer is used to start a process at reduced power and/or reduced setpoint. Timing starts at power up or when ‘Run’ is selected. When the Timer Status = Run, the controller power is limited by the soft start power limit parameter. The Soft Start setpoint is a threshold which, when exceeded, sets the timer to end.
To Operate the Timer If the timer is configured it can be operated in Level 1 or Level 2 as follows:- Operation Action Indication To Run the timer Press and quickly release Beacon -- RUN = On Scrolling display - TIMER RUNNING To Hold the timer Press and quickly release Beacon -- RUN = Flashing...

Notes: When the timer has been reset, press for more than 1second to select Auto/Manual mode. The time can be extended by changing the T.REMN parameter. If the timer has timed out it will automatically run again. Any output, not used for control, can be configured to operate while the timer is running and/or when it has timed out. 3116 User Guide Part No.
