Configuration / operating the function keys
Documentation for routing diagram.
In general
When configuring the 9106, you will be guided through all parameters and you can choose the settings which fit the
application. For each menu there is a scrolling help text which is automatically shown in line 3 on the display.
Configuration is carried out by use of the 3 function keys:
1will increase the numerical value or choose the next parameter
2will decrease the numerical value or choose the previous parameter
3will save the chosen value and proceed to the next menu
When configuration is completed, the display will return to the default state 1.0. Pressing and holding 3will return to the
previous menu or return to the default state (1.0) without saving the changed values or parameters.
If no key is activated for 1 minute, the display will return to the default state (1.0) without saving the changed values or
parameters.
Further explanations
Password protection: Programming access can be blocked by assigning a password. The password is saved in the device in
order to ensure a high degree of protection against unauthorised modifications to the configuration. If the configured
password is not known, please contact PR electronics support - www.prelectronics.com/contact.
Loop limits
In the menus LO.LIM and HI.LIM you can choose the current values which will trigger a loop error alarm from the status relay.
The NAMUR NE43 limits are selected by setting LO.LIM at 3.6 mA and HI.LIM at 21 mA. The selected limits are identical for
both channels. This function can be deactivated by selecting limits outside the range 3.5...23 mA. Alternatively, the status
relay can be used as a simple limit switch in the 1-channel version.
The loop break limit is fixed <= 1 mA. If this limit is exceeded, the status relay will be de-energized.
Signal and sensor error indication via display front 45xx
Sensor error (loop break) is shown in line 1 on the display by flashing and . The actual mA value is also shown followed by
an explanatory text. Channel 1 is shown in line 2 and channel 2 is shown in line 3 on the display.
Line 4 on the display shows the condition of the COM (flashing bullet) indicating correct functioning of 45xx.
Advanced functions
The unit gives access to a number of advanced functions which can be reached by answering “Yes” to the point “ADV.SET”.
Display setup: Here you can adjust the brightness contrast and the backlight. Setup of tag numbers with 5 alphanumerics.
Selection of functional readout in line 2 and 3 on the display - choose between readout of loop current or tag no. When
selecting ”ALT” the readout toggles between loop current and tag no.
Password: Here you can choose a password between 0000 and 9999 in order to protect the unit against unauthorised
modifications to the configuration. The unit is delivered default without password.
Language: In the menu ”LANG” you can choose between 7 different language versions of help texts that will appear in the
menu. You can choose between UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, SE and DK.
Power rail: In the menu ”RAIL” you can choose if a signal is transmitted to the central surveillance in the PR 9410 power
control unit when the signal limits are exceeded.
Safety Integrity Level (SIL): See Safety Manual for details.
