Relay Module
In addition to the Open Collector output in the 9900
base unit, the 9900-1BC has a Relay Module which
adds two programmable dry-contact relays. The
Open Collector output in the base unit uses the
Relay 1 setting in the menus. The Relay Module is
assigned to relays 2 and 3 in the menus.
Dry-contact relays are electromechanical switches
with a moving contact armature. They are suitable
for many general-purpose applications, AC or DC,
including AC loads up to 250 V. Install ), on relays
used to switch motor or inductive loads.
• Two SPDT dry-contact relay inputs
• User programmable
• 250 V, 5Amaximum resistive loading (AC).
• Can switch line voltage (typically 120 to 240 VAC)
• Can switch DC voltage (< 30 VDC @ 5A)
• Larger voltage and current ratings than Open
Collector outputs (30 VDC, 50 mA maximum)
Batch Module
Convert a 9900 Transmitter (Generation II or later)
to a Batch Controller by plugging in a
Batch Module 3-9900.397 (159 310 163).
Optional Module Wiring:
• Wire an external button or keypad (customer
supplied) to stop, start or resume a batch remotely.
• Wire an external input that can inhibit a batch
from starting.
• The Indicator LEDs on the front panel of the
9900-1BC show the status of Open Collector
(relay 1) and relays 2 and 3.
• Hysteresis and time delay are adjustable for
each relay.
To remove modules:
1) Remove power from the 9900
2) Remove the Relay module
3) Loosen bottom screw of Batch module
4) Carefully grip and squeeze the tabs at the top of
the module to release
5) Pull module away from the unit
6) Do not bend the connecting pins
CAUTION:
Switching active loads (usually inductive) can cause
contact arcing suf cient to damage the relays. The
RC Filter Kit or “snubber” (part number 3-8050.396)
is available as an accessory to reduce or eliminate
these damaging effects. Recommended for inductive
loads greater than 50 VAC (remote relays, solenoids,
pumps, etc.).

WARNING! Georg Fischer Signet strongly recommends against the use of 4 to 20 mA current loop controlled
devices, such as actuated valves, for use as Batch control elements. On power up, the 9900
current loop will supply a 12 mA signal on the current loop output while the system initializes, if an
error occurs, such as a missing Digital (S3L) sensor or overrun, the current loop will go to the error
current of 3.6 or 22 mA. Improper programming of the loop completion current or the loop error
current can cause unintended actuation of the current loop controlled device. These can cause an
unexpected discharge of material from the batch system.
Software
Important
Note:
The 9900 in Batch mode does not support the 3-9900.270-MX Modbus or the 3-9900.395 HART Communication modules.
No data is available from the 9900 when congured for Batch operation.

Wiring Tips:
• Do not route the sensor or DC power cables in conduit containing AC power
wiring. Electrical noise may interfere with sensor signal.
• Routing the sensor cable in grounded metal conduit can help prevent
electrical noise and mechanical damage.
• Seal the cable entry points to prevent moisture damage.
• Only one wire should be inserted into a terminal.
•Splice double wires outside the terminal or use appropriate wire ferrule,
not to exceed 2 mm (0.08 in) diameter.
Tools Required
• Phillips screwdriver
• Flat-head screwdriver
• Wire strippers
System Start-up: Step 2
Wire the transmitter connections with the power off. Keep any 4 to 20
mA and relay-actuated output devices that are connected to it offl ine at
this time. Wire the sensor (pg. 8), power (pg. 9) and Open Collector and
relay(s) (pg. 10).
Next step: System Setup (Step 3).
All wiring connections to the 9900-1BC are made via removable terminal plugs.
In general:
• Terminals accept 12 to 24 AWG wire.
• Strip 7 mm (0.28 in.) of insulation from wire tips and tin bare ends to
eliminate fraying.
• Insert wire tip or ferrule completely into the terminal and secure with
the screw.
• Do not allow any AC leads that may be connected to the internal relays to
come in contact with low voltage wiring.
CAUTION:
DO NOT bundle Relay Module
wiring with other wiring.
Doing so may cause damage to 9900 Transmitter,
Relay Module, and Batch Module.
Wiring
• Minimize handling of plug-in modules to reduce the possibility of
damage due to ESD.
• Handle modules by the edges. Never touch any exposed circuitry or
contacts.
• Wear an anti-static wristband or stand on an anti-static mat, or
keep one hand touching a properly grounded pipe or other properly
grounded piece of metal when handling modules.
CAUTION:
Avoid Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

The 9900 Open Collector (R1) output provides high-speed switching capability. Signal frequencies can reach
400 pulses per minute.
The 9900 Open Collector (R1) output connection is dependent upon the type of circuit being controlled by the output.
Most indicating instruments or control system inputs require a signal voltage of 0 to 5 V (TTL or CMOS logic levels)
or 0 to 24 V. Therefore, the 9900 Open Collector output circuits must be equipped with a pull-up or pull-down
resistor (not supplied), and a quality regulated 5 to 24 V (depending on the application) power supply (not supplied)
is recommended to function properly.

Fail-Safe Behavior
No matter the setting, the Open Collector output turns off if the 9900 loses power. This must be taken into account
when evaluating system failure consequences. If the system layout requires a “closed” or “on” condition for the
output in case of power loss, a mechanical dry-contact relay (NC contacts) must be used instead of the Open
Collector (R1) output.

9900-1BC Batch Controller Manual
ERROR – Error:
If using S3L ow sensor, activates relay when no
sensor is detected.
MULTIPLE – Multiple Mode:
Activates relay when any one of the four enabled
conditions are met. User can select from Missing
Signal, Overrun, High Flow or Error.
TOT VOL – Totalizer Volume:
When resettable totalizer exceeds specied volume,
relay activates and latches.
Requires Totalizer Volume Reset to deactivate relay
(see Reset Total, page 18).
This mode is useful to trigger a reminder when a
process is due, as for a backwash cycle or lter
change.
TWO STG – Two Stage:
This function is designed to prevent overlling or
to minimize water hammer. Both the mainline relay
and the bypass relay are energized when the batch
starts. The mainline relay then de-energizes at a
programmed batch percentage, allowing ow to
continue through a smaller bypass line to reduce the
ll rate (see diagram). After the batch is dispensed,
the bypass relay de-energizes, completing the
sequence.
NOTE: If Relay 1 is selected for Two-Stage operation,
relay 2 defaults to Bypass. If Relay 2 is selected,
relay 3 defaults to bypass. If Relay 3 is selected,
relay 2 defaults to bypass.

System Setup

16 9900-1BC Batch Controller Manual
MENU Mode Overview
The MENU mode enables the user to view and congure all menu items. The ve
menus available are: CAL, INPUT, LOOP, RELAY, and OPTION.
MENU Mode is entered by pressing and holding ENTER for three seconds.
The ► button is used to change the position of the blinking cursor. When the
desired menu is blinking, press ENTER.
In the selected menu, use the ▲ and ▼ keys to navigate through the menu.
Use the ▲, ▼ and ► keys to edit the selected item (see Menu Navigation
discussion, page 24).
To save the new selection, press the ENTER key. A message displaying “Saving…”
will be displayed for 3 seconds. After this message is displayed, the newly selected
value will be displayed, if applicable.
VIEW Mode Overview
The top level of menus is referred to as the VIEW Mode. This view displays
measurement values as well as current outputs and relay status. The radial bar
graph represents the measurement value that is also displayed in the 7-segment
numeric eld below the bar graph. The bar graph is primarily used to display the
percentage of batch volume, but can display a source volume when congured via
a menu item.
During normal operation, the 9900 displays the VIEW mode.
● To select a display, press the ▲ or ▼ arrow keys. The display selections scroll
in a continuous loop.
●Changing the display selection does not interrupt system operations.
●No password is necessary to change display selection.
●Output settings cannot be edited from the View Mode.
●The display will return to the VIEW mode if no button is pressed for 10 minutes.
Password Overview
The password is often required to start editing. Once entered correctly, this
password will not be needed for subsequent edits. However, once the menu system
is exited, the password will again be required when edit mode is re-entered.
Your choice of password (STD or CODE) is selected in the Options Mode.
STD:
The standard (STD) password is ▲▲▲▼, pressed in sequence. This password
is designed to protect the 9900 from unintentional changes. It is best suited for
systems where a group of people need to be able to change settings.
CODE:
The CODE default setting is 0000, adjustable to any 4-digit numerical code up to
9999. Using a personal code provides the maximum degree of security. This code
can be modied in the Options mode.
Error Handling
Errors occurring while in the
VIEW Mode show a specic
message (e.g., CHECK
SENSOR).
This message is displayed
every 10 seconds and stays
on for 5 seconds. Once the
error is resolved or cleared,
the error message stops.
Scrolling
In some cases, more
than one message or
measurement may need
to be displayed. This is
accomplished by alternating
the message portions
across the screen.
Password menus
In the MENU mode, if the
wrong code or password
is entered, an ERROR
message is displayed.
To change your CODE,
go to OPTIONS mode,
enter your desired code
and press ENTER.
(The STD password
cannot be changed.)
