WARNING! Electric shock danger
ProSense QPS is a pressure measurement device. DO NOT use it out of its specification. Improper
pressure or incorrect wiring may cause injuries to staff or damages to other devices.
1. Keep away from high-voltage and high-frequency environment during the installation to prevent
interference. Avoid using the device in environments which contain: (a) dust or corrosive gas; (b)
high humidity and high radiation; (c) shock and vibration
2. QPS can only be used for air pressure measurement and should avoid corrosive, inflammable or
toxic gas measurement.
3. Make sure the input power is switched off when installing or uninstalling the QPS and the pres-
sure source is off to prevent harm to personnel or equipment.
4. Before switching on the input power, check the signal connection, e.g. the input voltage and
polarity. Voltage that is too high may cause damage to the QPS.
5. Use dry cloth and DO NOT use acid or alkaline liquid to clean the device.
6. Outputs remain active in Setup Mode.

Analog Output
The analog output is directly proportional to the process pressure over the full range of the device. For example if the process pressure is 0 psi
the 4-20 mA output of a QPSL will be approximately 12 mA or for the QPSH the pressure at 12 mA would be 65.3 psi and for 0 psi the output
would be 5.45 mA. The analog output is enabled as the factory default. It can be disabled with the “Analog Output Enable” parameter in Pro
Setup Mode.

Process Connection
Use a suitable thread sealant Teflon® tape. Do not use liquid thread
sealant. Always tighten with an open end or adjustable wrench on
the wrench flats. Never use any part of the pressure gauge to tighten
other than the wrench flats that are on the gauge socket. Failure to
do so will severely damage the pressure gauge.

CODE (Pro Setup Mode Parameter Cod)
CODE provides a quick method to determine the settings of the QPS parameters (Factory Default 0000 302)Locking the Keys
Lock On: Press ; and .together for 2 seconds until
lock
on
is
displayed. You will then see the display of pressure value (PV) and
setpoint value (SV).
Lock Off: Press ; and ,together for 2 seconds until
lock
off
is
displayed. You will then see the display of pressure value (PV) and
setpoint value (SV).
Lock Display: Press any key in the key locking mode, and you will see
the display of pressure value (PV) and lCk (SV). Release the key and
the PV and SV will return to original values.
QPS is able to copy the parameters from one
device to another.
Electrical connection for copying parameters:
Connect Pin 2 (black) on master to Pin 3 (white) on slave; Pin 3
(white) on master to Pin 2 (black) on slave; Pin 5 (blue) on master
and slave to COM on power supply; Pin 1 (brown) on master and
slave to +24V on power supply.
Setup for copying paramters:
Slave device: In the “Run Mode”, press ;for more than 4 seconds
and release the key after you see
pro
set
. You are now in “Pro Setup
Mode”. Press ; 7 times and find the parameter for setting up the
copy function (See Pro Setup Mode chart). Use ,. to select
Cp-s
Cpy (CP-S refers to Copy-Slave).
Master device: In the “Run Mode”, press ; for more than 2
seconds and release the key after you see
pro
set
. You are now in the
“Pro Setup Mode”. Press 7 times and find the parameter for setting
up the copy function (See Pro Setup Mode chart). Use ,. to
select
Cp-m
Cpy (CP-M refers to the Copy-Master).
Next, press ;for more than 2 seconds and return to the “Run
Mode”.
Now you will see Cp-m on the display and CP-S on the slave
device, indicating that the two devices have been connected. In the
lower display int you will see numbers counting up, referring to
the number of parameters transmitted successfully between the two
devices.
Once the copy of parameters completes, you will see
Cp-m
ok
on the master device and
Cp-s
ok
on the slave device.
After the copy is complete, power the units off and re-connect them
according to the wiring diagram.
Resetting Zero Pressure:
Remove pressure from device before starting.
In the “Run Mode”, press ,. simultaneously, and you will see
0000
adj. The zeroing will start. Release the keys to end the zeroing
sequence.

Window Mode: In the example below the output will change state when the measured pressure increases to 55.3psi (1-L SV + HYS)and will
change state again when the pressure increases to 90.3psi (1-H SV + HYS). As the measured pressure decreases back to 90psi (1-H SV) the output
will change state and will change state again when the pressure decreases to 55psi (1-L SV). Each digital output can be individually set.
Using Hysteresis Mode to control the pressure in a tank
Hold ;button for 2-3 seconds until display changes.
Verify 0T1 is set to HYS, if not use the ,. to change and press ;button.
Verify 0T2 is set to EASY, if not use the ,. to change and press ;button.
Verify noC is set to 1C2o, if not use the ,. to change and press ;button.
Press and hold the ; button until the display changes to show the Setpoint and Process values.
Using the ,. set the output 1 1-H level to 90psi.
Briefly press and release the ;button to change to 1-L and set it to 55psi.
Hysteresis Mode: When the measured pressure is greater than the Hi setpoint, the output will change state. When the measured pressure
is less than the Lo setpoint, the output will change state. Each digital output can be individually set.
Using EASY Mode to Set up a Simple Alarm
Hold ;button for 2-3 seconds until display changes.
Verify 0t1 is set to easy, if not use the ,. to change and press ;button.
Verify 0T2 is set to EASY, if not use the ,. to change and press ;button.
Verify noC is set to 1o2C, if not use the ,. to change and press ;button.
Press and hold the ; button until the display changes to show the Setpoint and Process values.
Using the ,. set the output 1 ON level for 1-P to 80psi.
Briefly press and release the ;button to change to 2-P and set the output 2 ON level to 55psi.
Hold ;button for 4-5 seconds until display changes to Pro.
Press the ;button 3 times so that HYS is on the display.
Verify the value 3 is in the lower display, if not use the ,. to change and press ;button
Press and hold the ;button until the display changes to show the Setpoint and Pressure copy values.
Easy Mode: When the measured pressure is greater than pressure setpoint plus the hysteresis setting (SV+hysteresis), the output will
change state. When the measured pressure is less than the pressure setpoint (<SV), the output will change state. Each digital output can
be individually set.

Hysteresis is defined as: The lag in response of the output in reacting to changes in the process affecting it. For example Setpoint
1-P is set to 80 PSI for output 1 but the output does not change state when the pressure is increasing until the actual pressure
reaches 80.3 PSI (1-P+hysteresis), the output will then change back to its neutral state once the pressure drops below the Setpoint
of 80 PSI. This function known as Hysteresis is used to prevent the outputs from chattering if the process pressure were to hover
close to the Setpoint.
