This manual is intended to be used for instruction on operation and basic sensor programming of the
LC2000 using it’s front panel controls, display and optional printer. Much more extensive
programming is available using the TMSComm communications software provided on CD ROM.
SECTION 1 – SYSTEM OVERVIEW
1.0 GENERAL
The LC2000 series Leak and Point Level Alarm Console offers essentially all of the sensor-related
features of the TMS series Tank Management Systems, and will interface to all of the same sensor
model types, including discriminating and non-discriminating electronic or mechanical secondary
containment leak sensors as well as single and multi-point level float sensors. All sensor inputs can
be programmed for either alarm or relay control applications, including time delay, conditional logic
and latching functions for pump/valve controls. Optional printer and numerous communications
options are also supported.
1.1 FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION
The front panel of the LC2000 is available in four different configurations as listed below:
LC2000-1... Console without display or printer
LC2000-2... Console with display, no printer
LC2000-3... Console with display and internal printer
LC2000-4... Console with display and internal printer w/autowinder
This manual describes operational procedures pertaining to -2, -3, and -4 consoles. The LC2000-1
"Black Box" Remote Acquisition Unit is described in a separate Pneumercator document for operating
the LC2000 using TMS Communicator.
As illustrated in Figure 1-1 below, the LC2000 front panel consists of an array of green, yellow and
red LED indicators for sensor status, power LED, audible alarm annunciator, ultra-bright summary
alarm LED strobe (optional), membrane pushbutton controls, security lock, and optional printer with
or without autowinder.
WARNING
This product is wired to sensors installed in hazardous, explosive environments.
Initial application of AC power to this system should occur only after complete
verification of safe, proper installation by authorized Pneumercator-certified
service personnel. Failure to do so may result in serious injury and/or property
loss.

1.2 DISPLAY
The front panel display consists of an array of 4, 8, 12 or 16 groups of ultra-high intensity green,
yellow and red LED indicators for sensor state and basic configuration status, green power LED and
optional ultra-bright summary alarm LED strobe. Operating in the normal or VIEW mode, sensor LEDs
indicate NORMAL and ALARM conditions for non-discriminating sensors or NORMAL, PRODUCT
and WATER alarm conditions for discriminating sensors. Sensor and wiring FAULT conditions are
also indicated for sensors having Pneumercator’s exclusive supervised wiring feature. The optional
summary alarm flashing strobe is activated for any new alarm condition and can be programmed to
de-activate on front panel RESET, or persist until the alarm condition is removed. See figure 1-2
below.

SECTION 2 – OPERATION
2.0 OVERVIEW
The LC2000 has two operational modes, VIEW(normal) and PROGRAM, offering the following
functions;
VIEW Mode:
 Display of current sensor statuses and audible annunciation of alarm conditions
 Front panel acknowledgement of alarm conditions
 Testing of front panel display and audible alarm
 Viewing of basic sensor programming information
 Printing of current sensor status report and Alarm/Event logs (if equipped with optional printer)
 Initialization of logs and system configuration programming
PROGRAM Mode:
 Viewing/Programming of basic sensor configuration (Note: More extensive programming must
be performed using the supplied TMSComm software)
 Printing of sensor-only or complete system configuration reports
2.1 VIEW MODE
Pushbutton Operation:
 RESET acknowledges the front panel horn, changes blinking new alarm LEDs to steady “on”
and turns off strobe if so programmed. All programmed relay FP acknowledges are also
activated.
 TEST turns on all LEDs, strobe and double beeps horn.
 PGM (recall) displays basic sensor programming.
 Combined TEST and RESET enters PROGRAM mode. (See Section 2.2)
 PRINT generates a CURRENT SENSOR STATUS Report.
 Press and hold PRINT for 1 second to generate an Alarm and Event Log Report.
 PAPER FEED advances printer paper.
 Initialize all LC2000 logs – Press and hold EDIT ENABLE/SAVE pushbutton for at least 10
seconds while in VIEW mode. LC2000 will beep 3 times to confirm operation.
 Initialize LC2000 configuration – Press and hold EDIT ENABLE/SAVE and RESET
pushbuttons for at least 10 seconds while in VIEW mode. LC2000 will beep 3 times to confirm
operation. WARNING! This operation will clear all user-programmed configuration data
and set factory defaults.
LED Operation:
1. During start-up, all LEDs blink while loading configuration, followed by a display, LED strobe
and beeper check.
2. During VIEW mode, green = NORMAL, red = ALARM or PRODUCT ALARM, yellow = WATER
ALARM and red and yellow = FAULT. Alarms and faults blink until acknowledged.
3. During PGM recall mode, LEDs indicate basic sensor programming. Refer to table PROGRAM
Mode LED Indicators for details.

2.2 PROGRAM MODE
1. Enter PROGRAM mode by first pressing and holding TEST to enter DISPLAY CHECK mode,
followed by RESET (while still holding TEST). After two seconds the LC2000 will beep twice,
indicating transition to PROGRAM mode. The display will now show basic sensor
programming information as indicated by the orange lettering on the front panel.
2. Initial entry into PROGRAM mode: First SENSOR ENABLE LED blinks 3 times, then goes to
programmed state, i.e. ON for enabled, OFF for disabled.
3. Press TEST/ON-OFF to enable/disable selected item(EDIT ENABLE/SAVE button must be
pressed once after entering PROGRAM mode). If selected item is SENSOR ENABLE and
item is set to DISABLE, then all associated LEDs are turned off. See PROGRAM Mode LED
Indicators table below for programming selections.
4. Press PGM/PROGRAM SELECT until the “beep” to advance to the right to the next program
item. If the selected sensor is DISABLED, pressing PGM/PROGRAM SELECT until the “beep”
will not advance to the right, and instead, the SENSOR ENABLE LED will blink 3 times, then
retain its current state, which would be OFF.
5. Press and immediately release PGM/PROGRAM SELECT (w/o beep) to recall the currently
selected LED item. Associated LED will blink 3 times and return to currently programmed
state.
6. DISCRIMINATING SENSOR mode is selected via dip switches on the back of the display
board. See FRONT PANEL SENSOR PROGRAMMING table below. IMPORTANT! Dip
switch programming of DISCRIMINATING SENSOR enables will not take affect until an EDIT
SAVE operation is performed. Also, programming DISCRIMINATING SENSOR enables via
dip switches must be enabled in the LC2000 configuration file (Factory Default).
7. Edits are saved by pressing EDIT ENABLE/SAVE button.
8. PRINT generates a SENSOR CONFIGURATION Report.
9. Press and hold PRINT for 1 second to generate a complete configuration report.
