1. Brief description
The panel meter IM2-1F can evaluate pulses in many different ways and shows the result in the
5-digit LED-display. Available options are: frequency coverage with optional filters, summate of
pulses or display values via the time, detection of a rotational speed or collection of a position
via an incremental encoder. The results can be monitored via alarm conditions and can be
displayed onto the optional switching point. Furthermore the results can be freely scaled on an
optional analog output and relayed to a control system. The device can be operated directly by
Namur sensors, 3-wire sensors, switching/slider contacts, incremental encoders (HTL-/TTL-
output) or TTL-signals.
Via the 4 navigation keys on the front, the device can be adjusted onto different kind of
applications and later on different functions of the device can be controlled. The adjustment is
also possible via the PC-Software PM-TOOL with a special connecting cable. With an individual
code, the created parameterisation can be protected against changes by the user.
Numerous applications can be realised with this device, like e.g. tachometer, revolution
counter, flowmeter, dosing equipment, filling capacity meter, baking time meter of a baking
oven, flying knife, position evaluation, position surveillance, flow rate surveillance, acoustic
discharge measurements and so on. By use of the integrated, configurable functions like
permanent min/max-recording, averaging, frequency filter, setpoint setting, threshold value
recording via alarm system, 30-points-linearisation, mathematic charging and many more, you
receive an universal applicable modern system for your demands in measuring and control
technique.

4. Function and operation description
Operation
The operation is divided into three different levels.
Menu level (delivery status)
This level is for the standard settings of the device. Only menu items which are sufficent to set
the device into operation are displayed. To get into the professional level, run through the menu
level and parameterise under menu item .
Menu group level (complete function volume)
Suited for complex applications as e.g. linkage of alarms, setpoint treatment, totaliser function
etc. In this level function groups which allow an extended parameterisation of the standard
settings are availabe. To leave the menu group level, run through this level and parameterise
under menu item .
Parameterisation level:
Parameter deposited in the menu item can be parameterised here. Functions, that can be
changed or adjusted, are always signalised by a flashing of the display. Settings that are made
in the parameterisation level are confirmed with [P] and thus saved. By pressing the „zero-key“
it leads to a break-off of the value input and to a change into the menu level. All adjustments
are saved automatically by the device and changes into operating mode, if no further key
operation is done within the next 10 seconds.

Function chart:
4.1. Parameterisation software PM-TOOL:
Part of the PM-TOOL are the software on CD and an USB-cable with device adapter. The
connection is done via a 4-pole micromatch-plug on the back side of the device, to the PC-side
the connection ist done via an USB plug.
System requirements: PC incl. USB interface
Software: Windows XP, Windows VISTA
With this tool the device configuration can be generated, omitted and saved on the PC. The
parameters can be changed via the easy to handle program surface, whereat the operating
mode and the possible selection options can be preset by the program.
CAUTION!
During parameterisation with connected measuring signal, make sure that the measuring signal
has no mass supply to the programming plug. The programming adapter is galvanic not
isolated and directly connected with the PC. Via polarity of the input signal, a current can
discharge via the adapter and destroy the device as well as other connected components!

Menu level Parameterisation level
Setting of the pulse delay,
Default:
With the pulse delay of 0–250 seconds (max), frequencies can be collected, which
are even smaller than by the predetermined measuring time of the device. If e.g. a
delay of 250 seconds is set, this means that the device waits up to 250 seconds
for an edge, before it assumes a 0 Hz frequency. Thus frequencies up to 0.004 Hz
can be collected.
Adjustment of the optimum digital frequency filter,
Default:
If the optional filter is not activated by the adjustment , frequencies are ignored
by the adjusted frequency filter. Act on the assumption that the pulse-duty factor is
1:1. Accordingly the minimal pulse duration is derived from the half of the time of
oscillation. Use a filter of 10 Hz or 20 Hz for contact bounce suppression.
Selection of analog output,
Default:
Three output signals are available: 0-10 VDC, 0-20 mA and 4-20 mA, with this
function, the demanded signal is selected.
Setting up the final value of the analog output,
Default:
The final value is adjusted from the smallest digit to the highest digit with [▲] [▼]
and digit by digit confirmed with [P]. A minus sign can only be parameterised on
the highest digit. After the last digit, the device changes back into menu level.

Setting up the initial value of the analog output,
Default:
The final value is adjusted from the smallest digit to the highest digit with [▲] [▼]
and digit by digit confirmed with [P]. A minus sign can only be parameterised on
the highest digit. After the last digit, the device changes back into menu level.
Threshold values / limit values,
Default:
For both limit values, two different values can be parameterized. With this, the
parameters for each limit value are called up one after another.
Hysteresis for limit values,
Default:
For all limit values exists a hysteresis function, that reacts according to the settings
(threshold exceedance / threshold undercut).
Function if display falls below / exceeds limit value,
Default:
The limit value undercut can be selected with (LOW = lower limit value) and
limit value exceedance can be selected with (HIGH = upper limit value). If e.g.
limit value 1 is on a switching threshold of 100 and occupied with function , the
alarm will be activated by reaching the threshold. If the limit value is allocated to
, an alarm will be activated by undercut of the threshold..
Threshold values / limits,
Default:
This value defines the threshold, that activates/deactivates an alarm.

5. Setting up the device
Menu level Parameterisation level
Hysteresis for limit values,
Default:
The delayed reaction of the alarm is the difference to the threshold value, which is
defined by the hysteresis.
Function for threshold value undercut / exceedance,
Default:
A limit value undercut is selected with (for LOW = lower limit value), a limit
value exceedance with (for HIGH = higher limit value). If e.g. limit value 1 is on
a threshold level of 100 and allocated with function , an alarm is activated by
reaching the threshold level. If the threshold value was allocated to an alarm
will be activated by undercutting the threshold value, as long as the hysteresis is
zero.
