1Overview
The VISY-TD Display (Truck Driver Display) is an optional part of the VISY-X system. With
the VISY-X system, highly precise, continuous level measurements in up to 16 tanks are
carried out directly at the petrol station.
The display is used to show information which is important for a fuel tank driver and
displays the ullage of the individual tanks as well as warnings. For this reason, the display
should be placed behind the glass pane of the petrol station building so that it can also be
utilised outside of the petrol station business hours.
By operating a switching contact, the display of the VISY-TD Display is activated and the
data of the first tank is displayed. Operating the switching contact repeatedly switches to
the respective tank with the next higher tank number. The display is automatically deac-
tivated if the switching contact is not operated for a longer period.
2Safety instructions
The VISY-TD Display is used to display the ullage determined by the VISY-X system in the
tank up to the maximum filling level (capacity). In addition, the current volume is also
displayed. Use the display for this purpose only. The manufacturer accepts no liability for
any form of damage resulting from improper use.
The display has been developed, manufactured, and tested in accordance with the latest
safety engineering practices and generally accepted safety standards. Nevertheless, hazards
may arise from its use. For this reason, the following safety instructions must be observed:
Do not change or modify the display or add any equipment without the prior consent of
the manufacturer.
The installation of the display may only be carried out by expert personnel. Specialised
knowledge must be acquired by regular training.
Installers and operators must comply with all applicable safety regulations. This also
applies to any local safety and accident prevention regulations which are not stated in this
manual.
The safety instructions in this manual are marked as follows:
If these safety instructions are not observed, it may result in the risk of acci-
dent or damage to the VISY-TD Display.
Useful information designed to ensure continued and correct operation of the
VISY-TD Display or helpful advice to make your work easier.

3Design and function
3.1 Normal operation
The display is in normal mode if no errors for the tank to be displayed have been deter-
mined. The VISY-TD Display is activated with the external switching contact and displays
the relevant data for the first tank. Press the switching contact again to switch to the next
tank (e.g. Tank 2). The following figure shows the display in normal mode:
Figure 1: Example for the display of the tank data
Status Symbol
Provides information about the status of the currently selected tank or about the general
status of the VISY-TD Display (see chapter 3.3).
Tank number
The number of the currently selected tank. For easy reading, the tank number is addition-
ally displayed in the upper right corner of the display in a large font.
Product name
The product stored in the selected tank.
Capacity
The maximum permitted volume in the selected tank.
Volume
The real volume available in the selected tank (not temperature-compensated).
Ullage
The free volume still available in the selected tank up to the maximum permitted tank
content. For easy reading, the ullage is displayed in a large font.
Unit volume
For tanks with a nominal volume of 1,000,000 litres and higher, volumes are displayed in
m3instead of litres.

3.2 Failure mode
If the system has determined an error for a tank, this error is shown instead of the tank
data, see following figure:
Figure 2: Example for the display of an error
The meaning of the individual error codes is described in the following operating instructions:
Technical Documentation VISY-Command …, art. no. 207184
3.3 Icons
The icons described in the following are used by the VISY-TD Display to indicate the
various states.
No change in level
The level (the volume) for the
displayed tank is not currently changing (no
dispensing and no delivery).
Dispensing
A dispensing is currently taking place out of the displayed tank, the level (volume)
sinks.
Delivery
A delivery is currently taking place for the displayed tank, the level (volume) rises.
Wireless
The linking of the probe in the tank to the VISY-
X system happens via radio
transmission. Dispensing or delivery is not indicated in this mode.
Fault
There is a fault which is preventing the normal display of
the data for a single tank
or for all tanks.

4Installation
4.1 Assembly
The assembly of the VISY-TD Display should be done at eye level for better readability.
Assembling is recommended behind a glass pane inside the building. The VISY-TD display
can be attached to the glass pane by using the included Velcro fasteners. The casing cover
does not need to be removed for the assembly.
Before assembling the Velcro fasteners the glass pane must be cleaned with a suitable
agent. The Velcro fastener are to be fixed at the corners of the casing cover.
4.2 Electrical connection
The VISY-TD Display comes equipped with a 2 metre, 7-pole connection cable which
connects it to the VISY-command and the switching contact. If this cable must be extend-
ed, a junction box with 3 connecting cables must be used:
•2-pole standard cable for connecting the switching contact (NO contact)
•2-pole standard cable for connecting the power supply unit
•3-pole communication cable with twisted lines for connection to the RS-485
See the following table for the assignments of the 7-pole connection cable:

Voltage supply
The included 5 V power supply unit is required for voltage supply of the VISY-TD Display
and must be installed in the VISY-Command. For installation this power supply unit is
clicked into the available top hat rail in the VISY-Command.
For electrical connection of the power supply unit to the interface VI-4, the
VISY-Command must be disconnected from the mains.
For voltage supply, connect the terminals N and L of the power supply unit to the termi-
nals N and L of the VI-4 interface, see following figure. Use the enclosed wire ferrules for
this.
Figure 3: Terminals N and L of the power supply of the VI-4 interface
The VISY-TD Display must be supplied with the 5 V DC voltage of the included
power supply unit. Do not use the 5 V connection terminal of the VI-4 inter-
face (see fig. 3).
To provide voltage to the VISY-TD Display, connect the white and brown wires of the
connection cable to the + and – terminals of the power supply unit, see following table:

Communication
The communication between the VISY-TD Display and the VISY-Command is performed
via a galvanically isolated RS485 interface. The communication lines of the VISY-TD Display
are connected to the extension interface of the VISY-Command evaluation unit. 3-wire
lines with interface ground are recommended to increase the interference resistance for
this connection.
Activate the extension interface in the VISY-Command using the VISY-Setup configuration
software. Please follow the relevant information in the VISY-Command and VISY-Setup
operating instructions:
Technical Documentation VISY-Command …, art. no. 207184
Technical documentation VISY-Setup V4, art. No. 207158
For connection of the communication lines to the VISY-Command, connect the wires grey,
yellow, and green to the terminals 6, 7, and 8 of the VI-4 interface, see following table and
figure:

External switching contact
In order to be able to activate the display or switch to the next tank, an external, potential-
free switching contact must be connected to the VISY-TD Display.
The external switching contact is not included.

4.3 Configuration
For the VISY-TD Display with firmware V1.0.1.255 and higher a configuration menu is
available.
4.3.1 Operation:
The operation within the configuration menu is triggered by an external switching contact.
In order to access the configuration menu the contact must be pressed for more than 10
seconds.
Following actions can be triggered by pressing the contact:
Short pressing the contact (less than 2 seconds)
•The cursor moves to the next line.
•If the cursor is in the bottom line and another menu item exists, that menu item is
displayed in the bottom line.
•If the cursor is on the last available menu item, it jumps back to the top line
Long pressing the contact (more than 2 seconds)
•If the cursor is in the top line, it returns to the next higher menu or leaves the
configuration
•If the cursor is not in the top line, the selected menu is opened or the configura-
tion is selected/changed
After closing the configuration menu all changes are automatically stored and remain even
after turning off the system.
Do not interrupt the power supply with active configuration menu, since the
configuration is not completely stored at voltage interruption.
