Description
The ProSense DPM2-P series offers a simple, low cost digital display for counter, tachometer,
rate, and frequency applications. The DPM2-P has a 4-digit 14mm character height red
LED display, accepts input from AC voltage, magnetic sensors, NPN/PNP sensors, NAMUR
sensors, TTL/24V encoders, or switched contacts, and provides selectable sensor excitation
voltages. One model includes two SPDT relay outputs that can be set to activate on an
increasing or decreasing input signal with hysteresis or time delay operation in tachometer,
rate, and frequency modes as well as pulsed or latched operation in counter mode. The meter
is powered from an external wide range AC or DC power supply. The 1/8 DIN housing is
easy to install in a panel and the meter face has an IP65 rating. Configuration parameters
can be totally or selectively locked out to prevent unauthorized or accidental changes to the
meter’s operation. Additionally, the DPM2-P meters include memory and reset of minimum
and maximum display values in tachometer, rate, and frequency modes, and a totalizer display
in counter mode. ProSense digital panel meters are backed by a 3 year warranty.

Configuration
When power is applied to the meter, a display test begins automatically to check the function
of LED’s and digits. Once this test is finished, the display shows the internal software version
and then the unit goes to RUN mode.
Configuration follows a structure composed of a number of menus and submenus. By pressing
ENTER key, display shows “Pro”, pressing again allows access to the main menu level which
includes the menus for input configuration (InP), display configuration (dSP) and relay
setpoints configuration (SEtP) if relays are present in the meter.
If configuration has been totally locked-out, when pressing ENTER key to get into main menu,
display shows “dAtA” instead of “Pro”. This indicates that it is only possible to see programmed
information and that it is not allowed to modify any parameter from the entire configuration. In
this visualization mode, the meter automatically switches back to RUN mode after 15 seconds
since last key press.

Once inside each menu, all configuration parameters are sequentially shown and they can then
be edited by pressing the ENTER key. Numeric values must be entered digit by digit, first
selecting digit and then changing its value. When the desired display value is reached, press the
ENTER key to validate the data and move forward to next configuration step.
Data entered or changed during configuration is stored in device memory after configuration
routine belonging to the respective submenu is completed, not before. On last routine step and
after the ENTER key is pressed, display indicates “StorE” and the unit goes back again to RUN
mode.

Once input signal type is chosen and ENTER key is pressed by repeatedly pressing the SHIFT
key the display will show the three available operating modes: Counter (Cont), rpm meter
(tACH) and rate meter (rAtE).
In counter mode the meter always counts up the number of pulses received at the input.
Totalizer function is also available.
In rpm tachometer mode speed is always displayed in rpm based on the specified number of
pulses per revolution from the sensor.
In rate tachometer/frequency mode display scaling is possible from an input value given
in pulses per second (input frequency) to configure a display-frequency ratio reading in
engineering units.

RPM Tachometer Mode (#2)
If selected operating mode is rpm tachometer (tACH), the displayed routine after
pressing ENTER will be as shown here.
Configure the number of pulses per revolution provided by the sensor connected to
the input. After “PPr” indication, display shows four digits (by default 0060) which
can be programmed between 0001 and 9999.
Pressing ENTER, display shows “dECP” and then “0000.” to locate decimal point
position. It is possible to choose one decimal position or simply no decimal point by
pressing SHIFT key.
This operating mode always implies a rpm (revolutions per minute) reading and
display scaling it is not available.
Press again ENTER to save changes and to return back to RUN mode.
Rate Tachometer/Frequency Mode (#3)
If selected operating mode is rate tachometer (rAtE), the displayed routine after
pressing ENTER will be as shown here.
Configure the relation between display reading and the number of pulses per
second received at the input (input frequency). If increasing frequency must
result in an increasing display then “dir” (direct proportional variation) must
be selected. Select “inV” (reverse proportional variation) if increasing frequency
must result in a decreasing display. Select desired variation using SHIFT key
and then press ENTER.
Next define display scaling. Display shows “FrEC” and then the number of
pulses per second at the input must be introduced using UP and SHIFT keys
(1000 by default). Press ENTER to accept input frequency value.
Next step defines decimal point position using SHIFT key. Frequency
resolution can be configured with two (hundredths of a Hertz), one (tenths of a
Hertz) or without decimal places (Hz). Press ENTER to validate decimal point
position.
Third step begins with “diSP” message and then a four-digit number which will
be the desired display that will correspond to the input frequency value ‘FrEC’
previously configured in first step. Once it is entered (1000 by default) press
ENTER to accept.
Last step defines display decimal point position. Choose desired location using
SHIFT key and press again ENTER to save changes and to return back to
RUN mode.

Example of Configuration:
It is desired to measure the speed in m/s of a conveyor belt which is driven by a shaft turning
at 300 rpm that is 20 cm in diameter and provides 4 pulses per revolution.
In 1 second the shaft will generate 20 pulses (300 rpm = 5 rev/s and each revolution provides
4 pulses). Input frequency is then 20Hz. Belt lineal speed is 3.142 m/s (v = e/t; v = 5 rev x πx
0.2 m/s). The parameters to be configured will be:
Direct proportional variation (dir) ; “FrEC”: 0020 ; (no decimal point) ; “diSP”: 3142 ;
decimal point: 3.142
Examples of Configuration Operating as Frequency Meter:
It is possible to operate as a frequency meter configuring the meter as tachometer (rAtE) and
scaling display properly.
For a mains frequency measurement (60Hz), using high voltage input the parameters to
configure are direct proportional variation (dir) ; “FrEC”: 0600 ; decimal point: 060.0 ;
“diSP”: 0600 ; decimal point: 060.0
Average measurement maximum time (tMAH) and time limit (tLiM) (tachometer
mode only)
The meter configured as tachometer with parameters properly programmed
(“PPr” and “dCP” for rpm mode and “FrEC” and “diSP” for rate mode)
should operate correctly. However, depending on the sensor type, it may be
necessary to modifiy internal measurement times.
After defining decimal point position at the end of the two configuration
routines for rpm and rate modes, it is possible to acces the routine that it is
shown here to modify “tMAH” and “tLiM” parameters by pressing ENTER for
at least 3 seconds.
AVERAGE MEASUREMENT MAXIMUM TIME “tMAH”
With irregular input signals the display may flutter or show unwanted variations
due to the number of input cycles detected at each reading not being equal.
“tMAH” parameter allows to extend the average measurement time in seconds
to increase the signal period measurement time, reducing the possibility of
display variations. A value of 0.0 means that no average will be made and every
measure will be displayed. This parameter can be programmed from 0.1 to 9.9
seconds (0.1s by default).
To help stabilize the display in case of irregular input signals it is recommended to
increment this parameter, taking into account that the display readout will be updated at the
programmed time. This parameter can be reduced, if the input signal is stable at operating
frequency, to increase the display refresh rate.
Once tMAH value is entered, press again ENTER to move to the next step.

TIME LIMIT “tLiM”
Time limit, programmable from 1to 99 seconds (10s by default), is the waiting time limit
until at least 1 pulse is received at the input before considering it to be ‘zero’. If no pulse is
detected before programmed time is elapsed, the display goes to zero.
Decreasing the time limit makes the meter respond more quickly to the zero condition when
system stops but, this reduction leads to an increment of the minimum displayable reading
before display goes to zero. The value for this parameter must always be greater or equal to
possible minimum period of input signal.
Once tLiM value is entered, press again ENTER to save changes.
Relay Setpoints Configuration
The menu “SEtP” only appears when relays are present in the meter.
Programming steps are similar for both relays on each “SEt1” and “SEt2” submenus. The
parameters to be configured are the following:
SETPOINT VALUE:
00.00: Value entering in counts within available model display range.
(It is not possible to change decimal point position, which is previously
defined in display configuration menu).
00.00: Value entered in counts within display range. (The decimal
point position is previously defined in display configuration
menu).

Function modes description
Alarms are independent, they become active when display value reaches Setpoint level
programmed by the user (Setpoints can not be referenced to the totalizer). For a complete
configuration it is necessary to define the function mode, as well.
HI/LO mode activation
In HI mode, output activates when display value goes above Setpoint level, whereas in LO
mode, output activates when display value falls below Setpoint level.
Time delay (Tachometer mode ‘tACH’ and ‘rAtE’ only)
Both output actions can be deferred by a
configurable time delay from 0 up to 99.9
seconds.
Time delay activation starts when display
value reach each Setpoint ‘SET’ either
increasing or decreasing, reaching the ‘dly’
delay in output activation/deactivation as
right figure shows.
Asymmetrical hysteresis (Tachometer mode ‘tACH’ and ‘rAtE’ only)
Both output actions can be deferred by a
hysteresis level which is configurable in counts
within full available display. Decimal point
position is the previously defined in display
configuration menu.
Asymmetrical hysteresis action only starts in
the output deactivation edge, obtaining as a
result the ‘hys’ delay as indicated on the right
figure.
Note that outputs activation is not affected by
hysteresis and they activate in each case just when Setpoint ‘SET’ is reached by display.

MODE 2: STOP
Relay 1 activates when the main counter
reaches its respective Setpoint value
and Relay 2 stops it when Setpoint 2 is
reached. Main counter remains stopped
until a RESET is done. Relays will be
deactivated when display goes down
below their respective Setpoint value.
MODE 3: RESET
Relay 1 activates at its Setpoint value.
When main counter reaches Setpoint 2,
a main counter RESET is done. Relay 2
output is pulse type and remains active
for the programmed time. Relay 1 will be
deactivated if display goes down below
Setpoint 1 value.
MODE 4: CLEAR
Relay 1 activates at its Setpoint value.
When main counter reaches Setpoint
2, relay 2 activates and relay 1 is
deactivated (if it was activated). Relay
2 output is latched type. Main counter
goes on until a RESET sets display to
programmed OFFSET value. Relay 2
will be deactivated if display goes below
Setpoint 2.
* In all cases, the behavior of OUT1 and OUT2 outputs relays, and consequently of the main
counter, changes depending on defined OFFSET level.
