2. Note
Please read these operating instructions before unpacking and putting the unit
into operation. Follow the instructions precisely as described herein.
The devices are only to be used, maintained and serviced by persons familiar
with these operating instructions and in accordance with local regulations
applying to Health & Safety and prevention of accidents.
When used in machines, the measuring unit should be used only when the
machines fulfil the EC-machine guidelines.
3. Instrument Inspection
Instruments are inspected before shipping and sent out in perfect condition.
Should damage to a device be visible, we recommend a thorough inspection of
the delivery packaging. In case of damage, please inform your parcel service /
forwarding agent immediately, since they are responsible for damages during
transit.
Scope of delivery:
The standard delivery includes:
Digital Thermometers, model: DTM
Operating Instructions
4. Regulation Use
Any use of the Digital Thermometers, model: DTM, which exceeds the
manufacturer’s specifications, may invalidate its warranty. Therefore, any
resulting damage is not the responsibility of the manufacturer. The user assumes
all risk for such usage.

5. Operating Principle
Digital thermometers with intelligent electronics serve to display, monitor, control
and transmit temperatures in production processes and equipment.
The new device series DTM... is remarkable for its easy operation and adaptation
to the most demanding measurement applications.
A 4-segment 14 mm LED display provides clearly visible indication, the device is
programmed with three arrow keys beneath the lower back-lit LCD display.
The devices are fitted with an analogue output as standard. Other interfaces are
available as options. Up to four limit values can be adjusted in the relay version.
The temperature to be measured is sensed by a platinum resistance thermistor
and converted by the electronics to an analogue signal proportional to the
temperature. The digital thermometer can be supplied in a compact shaft version
for a maximum indicating range of a 200°C. Above 200°C the temperature sensor
should be connected externally to the basic device with a cable.

6. Mechanical Connection
Before installation:
Be sure the maximum allowable working pressure and temperature specified
for the unit are not exceeded.
Make sure there are no packaging residues left inside the unit.
Installation:
Make sure the device into which the thermometer is to be installed has been
depressurised.
Mount the DTM where it may be easily connected according to applicable
codes and standards.
Do not screw in the unit using its housing, but rather on its hexagon (size 24
spanner).
If feasible, check the connection between the unit and the process or plant for
leaks as early as after mechanical installation.
7. Electrical Connection
Attention! Make sure that the voltage values of your system
correspond with the voltage values of the Digital Thermometers.
Make sure that the electrical supply wires are de-energized.
Remove the plastic cover
from the unit’s rear.
Insert the cable in the screw
terminal, and fix. Make sure
the PG connection is tight.
Pull off the terminal strip and
connect the cable as shown
in the terminal diagram.

Plug the terminal strip onto the plug base on the unit.
Slip on the plastic cap, and bolt in place.
Be sure the packing ring inside the plastic cap fits tightly.
Attention! Incorrect wiring will lead to damage of the unit’s
electronics.

8. Operation
The various functions and parameters are distributed over three (3) levels.
LEVEL 0- operator level
This level is accessible to anyone (without a password).
It will be possible to set the following functions if they are enabled.
Zero balance of the display unit (inPUt ¯ S-ZEro),
Servicing (SErVicE), always enabled:
View serial number (SErVicE ¯ n),
Enter master password to view passwords,
(SErVicE MAStr) (see 10.3),
Limit contacts (option) (rELAiS 1-4) :
Switching points (rELAiS 1-4 SPt1-4),
Switching point hysteresis (rELAiS 1-4 HyS1-4),
Switching point lag time (rELAiS 1-4 dEL1-4),
Additional functions (option):
Scaling of analogue output (outZP),
Scaling of display unit (diSPLAY),
Setting the peak memory (Pdu),
Setting the relay rotation (rotAtE),
Setting the RS 232 interface (S232).
All the menu items of LEVEL 1 and LEVEL 2 (except for the servicing menu item)
may be enabled or blocked respectively for LEVEL 0.
LEVEL 1- master level
Access to this level is via password. All the functions of level 1 (for level 0) can be
enabled or blocked respectively on this level. Settings of LEVEL O may also be
made on LEVEL 1 (if LEVEL 0 is blocked, for example).
Additionally, the following functions are available:
Servicing (SErVicE):
Displaying the dialogue display in operating mode (SErVicE SEE-Lcd),
Changing the password for LEVEL 1 (SErVicE PS-1).
LEVEL 2- additional function level
Access to this level is via LEVEL 1 after entering a password.
All additional functions available as options may be blocked or enabled
respectively on this level. Settings for additional functions may also be made on
LEVEL 2 (if LEVEL 0 is blocked, for example).
In addition, the following function is available:
Servicing (SErVicE):
Changing the password for LEVEL 2 (SErVicE PS-2).
