2 Series 1000 Operators Manual
1.0 GENERAL
The Series 1000 is a highly advanced, PID loop programmer/controller. It is
designed to be flexible in application and yet straightforward to use. This manual
provides all the information needed to operate it once installation and
commissioning are complete. Installation, commissioning and communications are
covered by more advanced handbooks provided.
1.1 Software version
When power is first applied to the
instrument the main display shows
the letters FGH, while the lower
display shows the software version
number, then 1000 is shown on
the lower display. This display is
replaced after a few seconds with
the usual one described below.
1.2 Front panel indications
The large main display usually
shows the measured value, for
example, the temperature of the
process being controlled.
This display may flash alternately
with a message indicating an error. The three possible error messages are:-
U-r Indicates that the main input is under ranged.
O-r Indicates that the main input is over ranged.
FAIL Indicates that the main input value is outside the safety shutdown
limits and the control outputs have been switched off.
The status indicators at the
top of the display tell you
several things.
1 The heat
output is on
2 The cool output is on
MAN The controller is in manual mode
REM The controller is obeying a remote setpoint.
AL1 alarm 1 is active
AL2 alarm 2 is active
TUNE (Flashing) One shot tuner is on
TALK The controller is being talked to via serial comms link
The bargraph gives an 'at a
glance' indication of the current
output power or valve position,
whichever is configured. It can be

useful as a rough guide when the lower display is being used to display something
different.
1.3 Short scroll
The 1000 powers up in short
scroll. This means that the lower
display is displaying one of a
short list of parameters; setpoint,
output, segment or event.
The mode indicators advise what
is on the lower display, as follows:
SP Set Point, the aiming point
being used for control.
OP Output, this is the current
percentage output of the
controller. When appropriate, heat is positive and cool is negative. This may be
control output or a manually set value.
SEG (P1000 Only) Segment, this shows the segment of the program currently
running, or if no program is running then the program number selected is
displayed.
If a program is running then a message such as 'P 4.19' or similar is displayed. This
means that program 4 is running and is currently executing segment 19.
Two other indications are also provided under the SEG element of the short scroll,
the display PXX.PF would indicate that program number XX is recovering from a
power failure, and error indication Err-x indicates that the program that has been
instructed to run is corrupt. x would be replaced with a number 1 to 9 to indicate
the type of error. See Appendix C for a complete listing. To recover from this latter
condition, press the star button momentarily to acknowledge the error and then
enter the programmer scroll and repair the fault by re-entering the corrupt
parameter. If the star key is pressed while the profile is running then the display
will change to show the current segment elapsed time in hours and minutes.
EVNT Event. If the instrument has been configured as having at least one
event output then this displays the current status of the eight events, a high bar
being on and a low bar being off. The events read from left to right.
A flashing lower display indicates that the profile is in hold.

1.4 Using the keypad
The left and right buttons select a
parameter to be viewed or
modified. When one of these
buttons is pressed, the next
parameter in the scroll list is
selected, scrolling forwards or
backwards.
In the short scroll these buttons
select which of a short list of
parameters, consisting of setpoint,
output, segment (and event if the controller is configured with any), is on the lower
display.
The up and down buttons adjust
the value of the parameter
selected. When the button is
pressed it is changed by one at
first but then at an increasing
rate. This makes it easy to make
large changes quickly.
Auto/man button. Used to place
the instrument in automatic or
manual modes. See section 1.5,
Auto and manual modes.
Star button. This button is used to
access the alternate functions of
the keypad as shown below the
buttons. The star button is
pressed and held and the other
button then pressed to achieve
the desired programmer function.
The star button is also used to unlatch latched alarms when the alarm level is
displayed in the long scroll, to show remaining number of repeats and acknowledge
failure to start a corrupt program. The star key is also used for initially configuring
the programmer/controller.

1.5 Automatic and manual modes.
The auto/man button toggles
the controller between
automatic and manual modes.
Check that output is displayed
on the lower display, (mode
indicator 'OP' will be lit), then
when the auto/man button is
pressed the controller will, if
valid, change modes. In manual
mode the MAN indicator at the
top of the display is lit.
While the controller is in manual
mode the output remains
constant until changed by the
operator or the instrument is placed back in automatic mode.
The output is changed by the up and down keys, but only within the limits set up in
the long scroll.
1.6 Selecting a profile to run (P1000 Only)
To select a profile to be run, press the left or right button until the SEG mode
indicator is lit. If no profile is currently running then the lower display will be
indicating PrG and the number of the currently selected program.
To change this program to the one required, press and hold the star button, then
repeatedly press and release the hand button until the program number desired is
shown.
1.7 Starting and stopping a profile (P1000 Only)
The program currently selected may be started at any time from within the short
scroll by pressing and holding the star button and then briefly pressing the up
button.
A running program may similarly be stopped at any time from within the short scroll
by pressing and holding the star button and briefly pressing the down button.
1.8 Fast on a running profile (P1000 Only)
When a profile is running and it is desired to proceed to a later part of the profile
more rapidly than was programmed, and without stopping the running profile to
change the program, then the 'fast' facility may be used.
To use Fast, press and hold the star button. With this button held, pressing the right
button will cause the program to execute at about 20 times as fast as long as the
star and right buttons are held. Release the buttons to return to normal executing
speed.
Fast has no effect if a profile program is not running.
Fast will override any hold condition.

1.9 HOLD on a running profile (P1000 Only)
From within the short scroll the running profile may be held, that is prohibited from
proceeding, by pressing and holding the star button and then briefly pressing the left
button. The lower display will flash to indicate that a manual hold is in operation. To
return the instrument to its running condition, press and hold the star button and
briefly press the left button once more.
2.0 CONTROLLER SCROLL
While there are only a few
parameters in the short scroll, the
controller scroll is a long scroll,
and has many more. Only
relevant parameters are held in
the controller scroll, so as the set-
up of the instrument changes, so
too will the contents of the
controller scroll. Refer to
APPENDIX A for a complete list.
To enter the controller scroll,
press and hold the right button.
After a couple of seconds the
display will change. You are now
in the controller scroll. Each
parameter has a unique
mnemonic, which is shown on the
lower display when that
parameter is being examined. Each press of the right or left button will scroll forward
or backwards through the list. When the end of the group is reached the group
name will be displayed again.
To return to short scroll, press and hold the right or left button again for a couple of
seconds. Alternatively, if no buttons are pressed for 20 seconds then the instrument
will automatically revert to short scroll.

2.1 Modifying data
The up and down buttons are
used to change the value of the
parameter displayed. There will
often be limits to the parameter
being modified, and it will only be
possible to change the value of
the parameter within these limits.
If a parameter contains illegal
data, for example when the
configuration is changed, then the
upper display will consist of all
bars;(- - - -) to show this. Pressing
the up or down buttons clears this
and allows the parameter to be set
to the desired value.
3.0 PROGRAMMER SCROLL
(P1000 Only)
To enter the programmer scroll, press and hold the left button. After a couple of
seconds the display will change. You are now in the programmer scroll.
To return to short scroll, press and hold the right or left button again for a couple of
seconds. Alternatively, if no buttons are pressed for 20 seconds then the instrument
will automatically revert to short scroll.
3.1 Profile Program structure
The standard P1000 profile generator can store up to 10, profiles numbered 0 to 9.
Each of these profiles consists of up to 25 segments numbered 1 to 25.
Each segment consists of a target time (in hours and minutes) and a target level.
The programmer will move the control setpoint from the previous target to the
current target level in the target time. In the case of segment 1, the previous target
is taken as the current measured variable. This is known as servo start. (See servo
start in the engineers manual for further information).
There are two further indications that may appear instead of a target time in
segments 2 to 25.
End This segment is the end of the profile. The profiler will terminate the current
cycle when it encounters an end instruction
GO XThis segment is a GO instruction. The character X will be shown as a
program number on the actual display. This instructs the profiler to jump to
segment 1 of the given program number and continue execution from there.

3.2 Programmer scroll global parameters
There is only one of each of the following parameters and they are not related to
any particular profile program.
3.2.1 Delay Parameter
When the programmer scroll is first entered by pressing and holding the left button,
the first parameter to be encountered is DELAY. This is an important parameter and
shows a time in hours and minutes on the upper display. This time may be set with
the up and down buttons to between 0 and 100 hours.
The time set represents a delay which will be executed after the program had been
commanded to start and before the conditions of segment 1 of the selected
program are applied.
This facility is provided so that a plant may be set to start up to 4 days after being
programmed. For example, so that a furnace is ready for use first thing Monday
morning, or to execute a process only during the night when cheap power is
available.
3.2.2 Event relay reset status
If any of the instrument option slots have been configured as event outputs then
pressing the right button causes the parameter 'Er- r' to be displayed on the lower
display. on the upper display are eight lines representing the status of the eight
events to be used when no profile program is running, or when the programmer is in
delay before starting a profile.
Each of the events can be set to be on or off. An on condition is indicated by a high
mark and an off condition by a low mark. The events are edited one at a time, the
event currently being edited flashes. To turn on an event use the up button, to turn it
off use the down button. To edit the next event, press and release the hand button.
The illustration shows that the reset condition is with events 1, 4 and 5 on and the
rest are off. The hand button has been pressed so that event 2, which is now
flashing, can be edited.
The above procedure for editing events is also used when editing events in program
segments, which will be encountered later.
3.2.3 Parameter PROG
After the delay parameter, (or ready mode events have been configured), a further
press of the right button will cause the ProG legend to be displayed. This is the
program select parameter and use of the up and down buttons will allow selection of
the program number to be viewed and/or modified.
The parameters following this element relate only to the program number just
selected. There will be a hold band, hold type and repeats setting for each of the
many profile numbers available within the instrument.

Series1000 Operators Manual 9
3.2.4 Parameters Hold and Hold type
Parameter Hold may be set
between 1 and 100 digits. These
are in the same units as the
measured value. This setting
represents the hold band of the
profile, ie. if the difference between
the measured value and the
setpoint (the error) is greater than
the hold band then the profile will
hold if dictated by the hold type.
The 'hold type' parameter
HtYPE, shows a line of four
characters on the upper display,
any or all of which may be
replaced with a '_'
Use of the up and down buttons
will cause the desired symbols
to appear or be replaced with underscores. When the symbols are visible that
parameter is active as follows.
The illustrations show an instrument which will go into hold on dwell or ramp
segments only when the measured value goes more than 5.0 units above the
control set point.
dDwell, enables profile hold when the program segment is of 'dwell' type. A
dwell type segment is one in which the level, or aiming point of that segment
is the same as that of the previous segment.
Dwell enable must be accompanied by an above or below enable before
dwell hold is active.
rRamp, enables profile hold when the program segment is of 'ramp' type. A
ramp segment is one in which the aiming level of that segment is not the
same as the previous segment.
Ramp enable must be accompanied by an above or below enable before
ramp hold is active.
bBelow, enables profile hold when the measured value is more than a hold
band below the current setpoint.
AAbove, enables profile hold when the measured value is more than a hold
band above the current setpoint.

3.2.5 Repeats
rEPtS is shown on the lower display and a number on the upper display. This
number may be set between 0 and 999 by use of the up and down buttons. This
number represents the number of times that this profile program will be repeated
when it is executed. Repeats occur between segment 1 and the segment containing
an END or a GO. All repeats are completed before the end or go segment is
executed.
A repeat value of 0 would cause the program to execute once only when evoked,
and not repeat at all.
Whilst a program is repeating, this parameter will show the number of repeats that
were originally set, but if the star button is pressed and held then the number of
repeats remaining is displayed.
3.3 Profile program parameters
These parameters form the profile program itself.
3.3.1 Time segment 1
On a further depression of the right button, the parameter t1 1 will be displayed.
This may be set between 0 and 100 hours by use of the up and down buttons. This
time is the time taken for segment 1 of the program selected to execute. A time
setting of 0 would cause a step change in the setpoint when that profile program
was executed. On two channel unsynchronised profilers each segment will have two
time settings t1 1 and t2 1. One for each channel.
3.3.2 Level segment 1
The next parameter in the programmer scroll is shown as L1 1. This is the level of
setpoint that will be in effect after the time of segment 1 has expired. During
segment 1 the setpoint will ramp for the period of time segment 1 on this profile,
starting at the measured value at the time the 'start profile' command was issued,
(servo start), and ending at level segment 1 set. On two channel profiles there is
also the equivalent level L2 1 for the second channel.
3.3.3 Segment events
If any of the instrument option slots have been designated as event outputs then
each of the profile segments in each program will have associated with it, a set of
eight events. These events are represented, as in the case of the reset event relays
by the eight indicators on the upper display. Interpreting and editing of these events
is as detailed in section 3.2.2
3.3.4 Segment terms sets
If the instrument is configured to use segment based terms sets then the element
Set will appear. The user should enter the terms set number required for the current
segment. This setting may be oFF meaning that the default P, I and D values are to
be used.
3.3.5 Time segments 2 to 25
Further presses of the right button will allow the times and levels of segments 2
onwards of the selected profile to be viewed and modified. These times are much
as set for segment 1, adjustable by using the up and down buttons to between 0
