1. General
Your new Visual Data Manager (VDM) is constructed with a built-in operating manual!
The simple operating concept of the unit enables a large number of applications to be
set up easily almost without the need for paper. Your VDM displays operating hints on
screen at the touch of a button!
However, this operating manual is still important - it is an extension to the instructions
built into the unit. Here items that cannot be described on the unit in text form or
selection lists are explained.
Alterations that expand the technical capabilities are reserved. In this case details
can differ from those contained in these instructions. This is no longer a problem as
the operating manual is always included in the VDM.
Chapters 4 “INSTALLATION/CONNECTION/SETTING UP” and 5 “SETTING UP UNIT”
describe the in/output connections as well as the programming/settings and the
respective functions.
Chapter 6 “HANDLING IN OPERATION” describes how the final set up unit can be
used, what information is available and how to access this and how to get the best
results from the diskette drive.

4.5 Ethernet connection An IEEE 802.3 compatible connector on a screened RJ45 plug on the rear side of the
device is available as a network connection. The device can be connected to a hub
or switch via this connection. The pin assignment corresponds to a standard MDI
interface (AT&T258), so that a 1:1 cable with a maximum length of 100 metres can be
used here.
LED description
There are three LEDs next to the Ethernet connections. These indicate the status of
the Ethernet interface.
Yellow LED: When the device is transmitting data it flashes irregularly,
otherwise is continuously on.
Green LED: When the device is receiving data it flashes irregularly, otherwise is
continuously on.
Red LED: Is on when the device is connected to a network. If this LED is not
illuminated then communication is impossible.

5. Set-up unit
5.1 Set-up direct on
the unit:
The push button functions are displayed on screen directly above the respective
push button.
•Using “ð....” and “...ï” push buttons, other functions of these push buttons can be
selected.
•Free fields mean that the push button has no function at the moment.
Starting parameter changes (from normal operation):
•Operate “....ð”: the push button function changes.
•Operate “Set-up”: the main menu is displayed.
•Select the required chapter by operating the “ñ”or“ò” push buttons.
•Acknowledge the selection by operating “Ô.
•Using the “Help” push button the integrated operating manual (help text in yellow
windows) can be switched on and off.
The main menu:
Individual parameters are shown in chapters in the main menu:
Basic settings General parameters (date, time, setting up release code ...)
Analogue inputs All channel or measurement point specific parameters of the analogue inputs (input
signal, measurement point identifier, limit values, ...)
Mathematics channels
(Option) Parameters for combining analogue channels
Digital inputs

Selection/change push button functions:
•“Ô: Start change, acknowledge selection.
•“ñ” or. “ò”: Select parameters.
•“ï“ or. ”ð“: Move cursor - change to next line.
•“ESC”: Abort last operating step; return to previous screen.
Operating principle:
1. Start parameter change with “Ô.
2. Using “ñ”or“ò” scroll values, characters, selection lists.
3. If the parameter is set up correctly acknowledge using “Ô.
Hints:
-Any parameter displayed in grey cannot be selected or changed (only hints or not
available/active option).
-Set-up is always possible using the “0000” setting (as delivered). Set-up can be
protected from unauthorised manipulation by entering a 4 digit secret code. This
code must then be entered whenever setting up changes are done using the front
mounted push buttons.
Tip: Note the secret code. Keep it away from unauthorised personnel.
-Changed settings are only operational when the unit is returned to normal operation
by operating the “ESC” push button a number of times followed by the push button.
Up to this time the unit continues to operate using the previously set parameters.
Attention: Change the diskette/ATA flash card if the old measured data is to be
used again, when new setting up parameters are stored old measured data on both
the diskette/ATA flash card and the internal memory is deleted.
5.2 Set-up by PC The Visual Data Manager can also be set up using a PC. In order to do this the
following is available:
-Front mounted RS 232 operating interface (3.5 mm stereo socket, protected behind
the diskette drive cover)
-Rear mounted RS 232 or RS 422/485 system interfaces.
Make groups
Parameters, for combining/displaying single channels into groups.
Hint: Only channels that are allocated to a group can be displayed or saved,
(internal memory and on diskette).
Channels that are not allocated to groups can however be monitored for limit
infringements or be automatically analysed (select this in order to utilise the
memory to its best).
Signal analysis
All settings required so that the signals can be automatically analysed.
Hint: The signal analysis is stored and can be used on a PC later. This means that
for example daily minima, maxima and averages of a few measurement points can
be read out front end and then displayed as a table or even graphically as a curve.
Helps to optimise memory capacity.

PC software installation
1.Install the PC software delivered with the unit on the computer.
If required the programme operating instructions can be printed out after installation.
2.Initiate the programme.
3.Attention: First connect the stereo plug to the socket on the unit then connect the
interface plug to the PC. When disconnecting do this in the reverse order.
4.Now the unit can be set up using the PC. Please note the operating hints/help
built into the programme.
Advantages of setting up using a PC:
•Unit data is stored in a data base and can be recalled at any time.
•Text input from a keyboard is easier and quicker.
•Using the programme measured values can be read out, archived and displayed
on the PC screen.
Attention:
-The front mounted RS 232 interface has priority over the rear mounted interface (the
rear mounted RS 232 interface is switched off when the stereo plug is inserted).
-Only one interface (RS 232 or RS 422 or RS 485) can be used at any time for setting
up.
5.3 Set up using
data carrier
1. The unit set-up can be copied to a data carrier. First select menu point in the
PC-Software “Display unit set up/add new unit” Select the unit from the list. Then
select menu point “Finished -> Create set-up data carrier (diskette/ATA flash card”.
Now select the required drive in which the data carrier is placed. Once this has been
acknowledged with OK the set-up file (*.rpd) will be generated.
Hint: In order to use this function the unit must already be available in the PC data
bank.
2. Place the parameter diskette into your unit(s), select “Diskette/Set up from diskette”
After a few minutes the unit is available with the new set up installed.
Attention: Once the transfer has been completed remove the set up diskette and

Set-up for switching off the screen rear illumination. (Screen saver switching off
increases the life of the rear illumination).
Illumination off after ...Switches the display off xxxx minutes after the last time a push button was used (rear
illumination is switched off). All further functions of the unit continue (green LED is on).
Operating any push button switches the illumination back on. “0000 min” = no switch
off.
Analogue inputs:
•Set-up/limits of analogue values for the measurement points connected.
SignalEach channel selectable. See “Connections/terminal layout”.
Channel identifierIdentifier of the measurement point connected to this channel.
10 character.
Engineering unitsInput of the engineering units used by the measurement point connected to this input
(e.g. bar, °C, m³/h, ...). 5 character.
Decimal pointSelection of the number of decimal points required for the 4 digit measurement value
display.
Range starting pointTransmitters change the measured value into a standard signal.
Example: 0-14 pH from the sensor is changed to 4-20 mA. The range starting point fo
0 - 14 pH is therefore “0“.
5. Set-up unit
73

Range end point The same as range starting point. Here, however, the end value of the range must be
set up e.g. “14“ on a transmitter with 0-14 pH.
Zoom start If the total range of the transmitter is not to be displayed the lower starting value of the
“Zoomed” section can be set in this address (higher resolution is achieved using this
feature).
Example: Transmitter 0-14 pH, required display section 5-9 pH. Set up “5".
Zoom end The same as in “Zoom start”. Here the upper value of the “Zoomed” section is set up.
Example: Transmitter 0-14 pH, required display section 5-9 pH. Set up “9".
Offset Factory default “0". The preset value is added to the real measured value for further
use (display, storage, alarm set point monitor).
Damping/filter The more unwanted interference on the input signal, the higher the value should be
set. Result: fast changes are suppressed (for experts: “low pass 1").
Cold junction
compensation
Only used on direct connection of thermocouples. “Internal”: Compensation of the
error voltage occurring on the connection terminals by measuring the rear panel
temperature. “External x °C/ °F”: Compensation of the error voltage by using
thermostat controlled external comparison points. Recommendation when using
thermocouple type B (Pt30Rh-Pt6Rh): Even without an external comparitor always
set “External (0 °C / 32 °F)” when connecting directly.
Reason: non-linear trace of this thermocouple in the ranges < 50 °C / < 122 °F.
Copy set up Copies the settings of the actual channel to the selected channel (including alarm set
points). The last two characters of the channel identifier of the target channel are
substituted by the channel number.
Integration Set-up only required if this analogue measurement point is to be integrated, e.g. for
quantity measurement. For analysis cycles see “Signal analysis”.
Integration base By using the integration feature quantities (in m³) can be calculated from analogue
signals (e.g. flow in m³/h). Here the required time base must be selected.
Example: ml/s -> time base seconds (s); m³/h -> time base hours (h).
Integration engineering
units
Set up the engineering unit of the value calculated by the integration feature (e.g. m³).
Scrolled display Selection if and with which counter value the instantaneous value is to be alternately
displayed. The analogue value is then displayed for approx. 6 s alternating with the
counter value for approx. 4 s.
Calc. factor It offers the option to convert the integrated values easily. For example, if the
transmitter delivers l/s and the required unit is m³ the integrated value will be
converted to m³ by adjusting the conversion factor to 0.001.
5. Set-up unit
74

Option: Profibus DP
(Monitor)
Set-up only required if a PROFIBUS measurement point is to be used by this channel.
•Slave address
Select the address of the respective sensor. Every sensor “slave” must have an
individual address. The measured value (the digital bus signal) is handled the same
as any conventional analogue measurement point.
Hint: If the slave supplies more than one set of measurements (“Input Index Data” on
multiparameter sensors), each measurement requires an individual channel.
•Index Input _Data
Position, where the measured value information starts in the PROFIBUS transmitter
data set. On single channel units: “000". Please also note details in the sensor
operating manual.
•Data type
Mostly “Floating Point”. Please note the details in the sensor operating manual.
Option: Profibus DP
(Slave)
Using the point Miscelaneous/Interface/Communication the external DP-Slave module
can be selected. This includes Slave address, Baudrate, time out and data
construction (see additional documetation: ZBA117ren).
Hint: Select a slave address smaller than 126.
5. Set-up unit
75

Limits Set-up only required if limits are to be monitored on this channel. It is also possible to
see if the alarm set point is active without haveing to open this menu point (“Limit X
active u“).
Type Select set point type.
Analogue signals: “LV high”: Signal exceeds the preset alarm set point. “LV low”:
Signal falls below the preset alarm set point. “Gradient”: Signal changes too fast.
For quantities (calculated from the analogue using the integration feature): The
counter alarm set point is exceeded within the preset time cycle.
Hint: In order to monitor counter values for alarm conditions the necessary signal
analysis must be active (see chapter “Signal analysis”).
Alarm set point, high/low Analogue alarm set point value in preset engineering units, e.g. in °C, bar, ... .
Alarm set point,
integration
Quantity alarm set point (integrated analogue channel) in the engineering units set up
under “Integration”.
Gradient dy/dt Alarm set point when the signal changes too fast (the signal changes by a value of dy
withinatimeofdt).
Signal change dy Value by which the signal must change within the preset time span in order to be
recognised as an alarm.
Time span dt Time span, within which the signal must change by the preset value in order to be
recognised as an alarm.
Hysteresis type “Percentage %”: set up hysteresis in %. “Absolute”: Hysteresis set up in the preset
engineering units (e.g. in °C, bar, ...).
Hysteresis value The alarm condition is only deleted when the signal has returned to the normal range
by the preset value.
Time delay The signal must have infringed the preset value for, at least, this amount of time
before it can be seen as an alarm condition.
