eration and maintenance of the device that must be observed unconditionally. It
must be read by the assembler, operator and the specialized personnel in
charge of the instrument before it is installed and put into operation.
This operating manual is an integral part of the product and therefore needs to
be kept close to the instrument in a place that is accessible at all times to the re-
sponsible personnel.
The following sections, in particular instructions about the assembly, commis-
sioning and maintenance, contain important information, non-observance of
which could pose a threat to humans, animals, the environment and property.
The instrument described in these operating instructions is designed and manu-
factured in line with the state of the art and good engineering practice.
1.2 Personnel Qualification
The instrument may only be installed and commissioned by specialized person-
nel familiar with the installation, commissioning and operation of this product.
Specialized personnel are persons who can assess the work they have been
assigned and recognize potential dangers by virtue of their specialized training,
their skills and experience and their knowledge of the pertinent standards.
1.3 Risks due to Non-Observance of Safety Instructions
Non-observance of these safety instructions, the intended use of the device or
the limit values given in the technical specifications can be hazardous or cause
harm to persons, the environment or the plant itself.
The supplier of the equipment will not be liable for damage claims if this should
happen.
1.4 Safety Instructions for the Operating Company and the Operator
The safety instructions governing correct operation of theinstrument must be
observed. The operating company must make them available to the installation,
maintenance, inspection and operating personnel.
Dangers arising from electrical components, energy discharged by the medium,
escaping medium and incorrect installation of the device must be eliminated.
See the information in the applicable national and international regulations.
Please observe the information about certification and approvals in the Tech-
nical Data section.
1.5 Unauthorised Modification
Modifications of or other technical alterations to the instrument by the customer
are not permitted. This also applies to replacement parts. Only the manufacturer
is authorised to make any modifications or changes.

1 | Safety guidelines FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH
6 / 88 BA_EN_EA16
1.6 Inadmissible Modes of Operation
The operational safety of this instrument can only be guaranteed if it is used as
intended. The instrument model must be suitable for the medium used in the
system. The limit values given in the technical data may not be exceeded.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper or incorrect
use.
1.7 Safe working practices for maintenance and installation work
The safety instructions given in this operating manual, any nationally applicable
regulations on accident prevention and any of the operating company's internal
work, operating and safety guidelines must be observed.
The operating company is responsible for ensuring that all required mainten-
ance, inspection and installation work is carried out by qualified specialized per-
sonnel.

2 Product and functional description
2.1 Use as intended
The EA16 is a measuring value display unit for measuring transducers with out-
put signals for current and voltage acc. to IEC 60381. Up to four measuring
transducers in two or three-conductor versions can be connected.
Typical applications
• Measured value display in clean room
Important features
• 3.5" (8.9 cm) TFT Touch LCD colour display
• Configurable colour switching
• 2 or 4 channel mode with …
– 2 or 4 configurable analogue inputs
for uniform signals (0/4 … 20 mA, 0 … 10 V) acc. to IEC 60381
(signal ranges ca be selected freely within the limits; see Technical
Data)
– 2 or 4 configurable analogue outputs
with possibility of characteristic curve spread and reversal with any off-
set
– 2 or 4 configurable switching outputs
with potential-free relay contacts or semiconductor switches
• USB interface
• Optional Modbus RTU interface
• Optional data logger function with data storage on Micro SD card
• Configuration of all parameters and a measuring point protocol(1) are pos-
sible via PC software

2.3 Design and mode of operation
The measuring signals of up to four connected measuring transducers can be
analysed simultaneously by the microcontroller electronics. The configurable
3.5" touch display can display up to four measuring values at the same time. A
configurable colour switch serves to present specific operating modes. Option-
ally, the device can be delivered with a data logger function.
The processed input signals are converted into the following output signals:
• 2 or 4 configurable switching outputs. Parameters, such as activation and
deactivation points, switching function or delay, are available for this pur-
pose. The switching states are displayed with symbols on the display.
• 2 or 4 analogue outputs with configurable output range. Every output signal
can be set freely within the signal limits (see Technical Data). The charac-
teristic curve change can be made in a linear, rooted, tabular or mathematic
form proportional to the displayed value.
The unit also has a Modbus interface and can be connected to a Modbus RTU
network as a slave. For more information about this topic, please reference the
product user manual and the Modbus reference manual.
(http://www.fischermesstechnik.de/en/downloads/manuals)
All parameters can also be set on the device via the touch display or (optionally)
via a PC software. The measuring value display unit has a USB interface to
which a USB stick can be connected. For instance, the USB stick can be used
to allow simple configurations to be exported to other devices. The PC software
also allows a measuring point protocol (2) .

4.2 Measured value display
There are two options for the measured value display presentation.
• Tile view
• List view
The colour of the individual chapters can be changed depending on the respect-
ive input signal. To do this, certain thresholds are configured for each colour in
the menu
Colour change
. The associated colours represent the respective
operating statuses.
In the list view, the background shadowing and the warning symbol assume the
function of the tiles. The colours are controlled depending on the input signal
like the tiles.
Depending on the unit model (2-channel/4-channel), there are different present-
ation variants [}15] for the measured value display.

4.2.3 Presentation variants
The unit is available in a 2-channel and 4-channel version. This setting is made
ex-works.
The detail views are identical to the detail views of the 4-channel version.
The analogue inputs on both versions can be switched off individually. This
status is indicated by OFF in the respective tile (or list). If two analogue outputs
are switched in the 4-channel version, the presentation variant of the 2-channel
model is shown on the measured value display.

4.3 Control elements
The unit is equipped with a TFT Touch LCD colour display. It is operated via a
list menu and the input interfaces that depend on the functions.
The touch function is not explained because so many devices have this state-
of-the-art function.
We recommend using a stylus pen.

5 Parameterization
5.1 General Information
The EA16 is a highly complex measured value display with a control system
that can be learned intuitively. Due to its complex structure and the possibility of
supplementing functions by means of a firmware update, it is not possible to
present all functions in details in these operating instructions.
The following describes the basic functions of the unit and how they are used.
NOTICE
Value ranges
The presented value ranges of the parameters correspond to the default values
of the factory configuration. If certain parameters are changed (e.g. measuring
range), the value ranges of the dependent parameters (e.g. thresholds) are
automatically adjusted. For this reason, the actually displayed value ranges may
differ from the value ranges shown in these instructions. The latter only serves
as a typical example.
5.2 Navigation in the menu tree
The menu can have up to six levels. There are several user profiles with various
read/write rights are filed in the user administration. Access to the menus and
parameter settings depends on the user.
The menu tree is navigated based on the following scheme:
