2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
The RT-73-XA meter is equipped with thermocouple input (K, , J, T, N, R, B, E). The
measurement range depends on connected thermocouple type. Measurement is linearised by
the polynomial characteristics referred to particular thermocouples and temperature of cold
ends is compenssated automatically. The device has additional measurement range (-
10÷90mV) mainly for diagnostics of measurement circuits. Being in this range, unit displays
direct voltage connected to its input (without compensation of cold ends). The result is
presented on 4-digit LED display. For every thermocouples result is displayed as integer (no
decimal point, e. g 1460) and for mV range with 2 digits after decimal points (with resolution
0.01mV e. g. -1.23 ).
RT-73-XA can be equipped with one or two relay (or OC type) outputs. Device RT-
73-XA is equipped with R -485 / Modbus RTU communication interface and 24V/100mA
supply output for free use. The meter can be ordered in two power supply versions.

Caution
- Installation should be conducted by qualified personnel . During installation all
available safety requirements should be considered. The fitter is responsible for
executing the installation according to this manual, local safety and EMC
regulations.
- The unit is not equipped with an internal fuse or power supply circuit breaker.
Because of this an external time-delay cut-out fuse with a small nominal current
value must be used (recommended bipolar, max. 2A) and a power supply circuit-
breaker located near the unit. In the case of using a monopolar fuse it must be
mounted on the phase cable (L).

- The power supply network cable diameter must be selected in such a way that in
the case of a short circuit of the cable from the side of the unit the cable shall be
protected against destruction with an electrical installation fuse.
- Wiring must meet appropriate standards and local regulations and laws.
- In order to secure against accidental short circuit the connection cables must be
terminated with appropriate insulated cable tips.
- Tighten the clamping screws. The recommended tightening torque is 0.5 Nm.
Loose screws can cause fire or defective operation. Over tightening can lead to
damaging the connections inside the units and breaking the thread.
- In the case of the unit being fitted with separable clamps they should be inserted
into appropriate connectors in the unit, even if they are not used for any
connections.
- Unused terminals (marked as n.c.) must not be used for connecting any
connecting cables (e.g. as bridges), because this can cause damage to the
equipment or electric shock.
- If the unit is equipped with housing, covers and sealing to, protecting against
water intrusion, pay special attention to their correct tightening or clamping. In the
case of any doubt consider using additional preventive measures (covers, roofing,
seals, etc.). Carelessly executed assembly can increase the risk of electric shock.
- After the installation is completed do not touch the unit’s connections when it is
switched on, because it carries the risk of electrical shock.
Due to possible significant interference in industrial installations appropriate measures
assuring correct operation of the unit must be applied. To avoid the unit of improper
indications keep recommendations listed below.
–Avoid running signal cables and transmission cables together with power supply cables
and cables controlling inductive loads (e.g. contactors). uch cables should cross at
a right angle.
–Contactor coils and inductive loads should be equipped with interference protection
systems, e.g. RC-type.
–Use of screened signal cables is recommended. ignal cable screens should be
connected to the earthing only at one of the ends of the screened cable.
–In the case of magnetically induced interference the use of twisted pair of signal cables is
recommended. Twisted pair (best if shielded) must be used with R -485 serial
transmission connections.
–In the case of measurement or control signals are longer than 30m or go outside of the
building then additional safety circuits are required.
–In the case of interference from the power supply side the use of appropriate interference
filters is recommended. Bear in mind that the connection between the filter and the unit
should be as short as possible and the metal housing of the filter must be connected to
the earth with the largest possible surface. The cables connected to the filter output must

Figur 4.7. Conn ction of pow r supply and r lays
Contacts of relay outputs are not equipped with spark suppressors. While use
the relay outputs for switching of inductive loads (coils, contactors, power
relays, electromagnets, motors etc.) it is required to use additional
suppression circuit (typically capacitor 47nF/ min. 250VAC in series with
100R/5W resistor), connected in parallel to relay terminals or (better) directly
on the load. In consequence of using the suppression circuit, the level of
generated electromagnetic disturbances is lower, and the life of relay contacts
rises.

4.4. MAINTENANCE
The unit does not have any internal replaceable or adjustable components available to
the user. Pay attention to the ambient temperature in the room where the unit is operating.
Excessively high temperatures cause faster ageing of the internal components and shorten the
fault-free time of the unit's operation.
In cases where the unit gets dirty do not clean with solvents. For cleaning use warm water with
small amount of detergent or in the case of more significant contamination ethyl or isopropyl
alcohol.
Using any other agents can cause permanent damage to the housing.

All accessible parameters can be changed by entering the menu (see: DEVICE
PROGRAMMING). Use the local keyboard or the remote controller to do it. (Note: all
parameters can be remote changed via R -485 interface).
Configuration of the device (via menu or R -485 interface) do not stops measures.
6.2. DETECTION OF THE PEAK VALUES
The RT-73-XA controller is equipped with peaks detection function. It can detect a
peaks of the input signal and display their values. Presets connected with this function are
placed in ”HOLd” menu (see description of ”HOLd” menu). The detection of the peak can be
done if the measured signal raises and drops of value at least equal to parameter ”PEA”.
Detected peaks are displayed during the time defined by parameter ”timE”. If a new peak will
be detected while one is displayed, this new peak will be displayed and display time counter
will be cleared (Figure 6.1). If no peaks are detected while time ”timE” elapses, device starts
to show the current value of input signal again. If „Hdi ”=”HOLD” then setting parameter
"timE"=0.0 causes holding peak value until [E C] button is pressed. If „Hdi ”=”rEAL” then
value "timE"=0.0 means no holding. Displaying peak value is signalized by flashing most right
decimal point.
The relays/LEDs can be controlled depend on the current value of input signal or the
peak value (see ”HOLd” menu).
Figur 6.1. Proc ss of p aks d t ction
6.3. CONTROL OF THE RELAY OUTPUTS
The control of the object (measured signal) is realized via relay outputs. Front panel
LEDs named „R” indicates the state of particular relay output.
If device is not equipped with one or more relay outputs, menus refer to this relays
are available, but apply to LED indicators only. In such case LEDs indicates
exceeding of particular thresholds.

Modes of the control can be changed depend on the values of parameters “ EtP”, “ Et2”,
“HY t”, “modE”, “t on”, “toFF”, “unit” and “AL”. Depend on “modE” parameter, relays
can be not used or controlled over one or two thresholds values.
If one threshold is used (Figure 6.2) the relay can be turned on (“modE” = ”on”) or off
(“modE” = ”oFF”) when the input signal value is contained in zone A. If two thresholds are
used (Figure 6.3) the relay will be turned on when value of input signal is contained in zone A
(“modE” = ”in”) or zone B (“modE” = ”out”) and turned off if the signal is contained in the
second one.

Figur 6.4. Principl of LED/r lay output op ration for on thr shold mod
Parameter “ EtP” sets a threshold of the relay, and parameter “HY t” sets a
hysteresis of the relay (Figure 6.4 a). The relay can change his state only when input value
exceeds (over or under) border value and tA ,tB ,tC ,tD times (Figure 6.4) are bigger than the
time defined by parameters “t on”, “toFF” and “unit”. Border values means values equal
threshold+hysteresis and threshold-hysteresis respectively.
If “t on” and “toFF” parameters are set to “0”, then the relay state will be changed
as soon as input value exceeds any of the border values (see points A and C, Figure 6.4 a,
b, c).
If values of “t on” or/and “toFF” are positive, then relay state will be turned on if the
input value exceeds the border values and stay bigger (or lower) during at least
“t on” (see points BON, DON, Figure 6.4 a, d, e). imilarly, the relay will be turned off if time
“toFF” elapse since the input signal value exceeds any of the border values (see points
BOFF, DOFF, Figure 6.4 a, d, e).

If tA ,tB ,tC or tD (when input signal stay in zone A or zone B) are lower than parameters “t on”
or “toFF”, the relay will not change his state (see points A and C, Figure 6.4 a, d, e).
The state of relay output while the input value exceeds the border values (points A, B, C,
D) is described by parameter “modE”. The relay can be turned on (“modE” = ”on”), or
turned off (“modE” = ”oFF”) when input signal value is contained in zone A (Figure 6.4 a).
The parameter “AL” allow user to set the relay output behaviour in critical situations (e.
g. Input values exceeds permissible measurement range). User can select that the relays
will be turned on, turned off,or not changed in critical situations.
All parameters connected with relay outputs are described in paragraph ”rEL1” menu.

Figure 6.5 presents the principle of relay outputs operation for two thresholds mode, and an
example values of other parameters. In this mode parameter “ Et2” is accessible in common
with “ EtP”, this parameter describes a second threshold of the relay output. The parameters
“HY t”, “modE”, “t on”, “toFF”, “unit” and “AL” are connected with both “ EtP” and
“ Et2” thresholds. While the controlling process, the relay output changes his state depends
of both “ EtP” and “ Et2” thresholds in similar way as it was described in one threshold
mode.
If two threshold mode is used, “modE” parameter defines state of the relay output when
the input value occurs in a particular zone defined by border values of both thresholds. The
relay can be turned on if the input value is contained in zone A (“modE” = ”in”) or zone B
(“modE” = ”out”) and turned off if it is contained in the second one (Figure 6.5).
The sequence of thresholds “ EtP” and “ Et2” can be set in any order, due to the
control of relay outputs is done depend on difference between thresholds values
(zone A ) and outside of threshold values (zone B).
7. DEVICE PROGRAMMING
The device menu allow user to set all parameters connected to operation of
measurement input, control modes, critical situations behaviour, communication via R -485
and access settings. The meaning of the particular parameters is described in paragraph
MENU DESCRIPTION.
ome of the parameters can be accessed without menu entering (quick view mode).
After pressing [^] or [v] button, name of the threshold (e.g.”rEL1”) and his value will be
displayed on the display in alternating mode. If [^] or [v] will be pressed in 5 sec again, the
next threshold will be displayed, else the device comes back to the measurement mode. If a
free access is enabled (see description of ”SECu” menu), user can change the value of
particular threshold pressing button [ENTER] (see: PARAMETERS EDITION).
If particular parameter has been changed and confirmed in quick view mode, its
new value is displayed in alternating mode with parameter name by few seconds.
Confirmed changes may be checked or user can switch viewed parameter pressing
[^] or [v] button.
7.1. PROGRAMMING MENU
To enter main menu (being in the measurement mode) operator must to press and hold
at least 2 sec. [E C/MENU] button.
If the user password is defined (see parameter “ cod“, menu ”SECU”), operator have
to enter correct one before proceeding to menu options . Entering of the passwords is similar
to the edition of numeric parameters (see: PARAMETERS EDITION ), however presently editing
digit is showed only on the display, other digits are replaced by “-” sign.
After entering of last digit of the password first menu position will be displayed (if the password
is correct) or warning ”Err” in other case.
Pay attention when device parameters are being changed. If it is possible, turn off
controlled installation (machine).

User manual - METER SRT-73-XA
Functions of the buttons while sub-menu and parameters choice:
election of sub-menu or parameter for editing. Name of selected item (sub-
menu or parameter) is displayed.
Operation of [ENTER] button depend on present menu position:
• if the name of some sub-menu is displayed - enter this sub-menu; name
of the first parameter (or next level sub-menu) is displayed,
• if the name of some parameter is displayed - enter the edition of this
parameter; present value of the parameter is displayed,
[E C/MENU] button allow user to exit present menu level and goes to upper
level menu (or measurement mode).
After about 1 min. since last use of the buttons, device exits the menu mode and
returns to the measurement mode (only if no parameters are in editing mode).
7.2. PARAMETERS EDITION
To start edition of any parameter user should select name of desired one using [^] [v]
buttons and then press [ENTER].
7.2.1. Numeric parameters (digit change mode)
Numerical parameters are displayed as decimal numbers. The mode of its new value
entering depends on chosen edit method ( see parameter „Edit”).
In mode “by digit” („Edit”=”dig”) pressing one of the keys [^] or [v] causes change of
current position (flashing digit) or the sign (+/-). hort pressing of the [ENTER] button causes
change of the position (digit).
Press [ENTER] at least 2 seconds to accept the changes, after that question ” Et?” is
displayed, and user must to confirm (or cancel) the changes. To conform changes (and story it
in EEPROM) press [ENTER] button shortly after ” Et?” is displayed. To cancel the changes
press [E C] button shortly after ” Et?” is displayed. After that device returns to the menu.
7.2.2. Numeric parameters (slide change mode)
In “slide change” mode („Edit”=” lid”), buttons [^] and [v] has different functions.
To increase edited value press (or press and hold) [^] button only, the increasing
became quickest as long as button [^] is pressed. To slow down the increasing, button [v] can
be used. If [v] is pressed shortly (and button [^] is still pressed), increasing slow down for
a moment only, if [v] is pressed and held while button [^] is still pressed the increasing slow
down and will be kept on lower speed.
To decrease edited value press (or press and hold ) [v] button only. The decreasing
became quickest as long as button [v] is pressed. To slow down the decreasing, button [^]
can be used. If [^] is pressed shortly (and button [v] is still pressed), decreasing slow down for
a moment only, if [^] is pressed and held while button [v] is still pressed the decreasing slow
down and will be kept on lower speed.
Press [ENTER] at least 2 seconds to accept the changes, after that question ” et?” is

displayed, and user must to confirm (or cancel) the changes. To conform changes (and story it
in EEPROM) press [ENTER] button shortly after ” Et?” is displayed. To cancel the changes
press [E C] button shortly after ” Et?” is displayed. After that device returns to the menu.
7.2.3. Switch parameters (“LIST” type)
witch parameters can be described as a sets of values (a lists) out of which only one of
the options available on the list can be selected for the given parameter. Options of switching
parameter are selected using [^], [v] keys.
hort pressing of [ENTER] causes in displaying of the acknowledge question (” Et?”). If
key [ENTER] is pressed again, the changes are accepted, stored in EEPROM end the edition
process finished. Pressing the key [E C] after ” Et?” causes in cancelling of made changes
and returning to menu.
Functions of buttons when editing numeric and switching parameters:
While editing numeric parameter:
• change of current (flashing) digit
• slide change of value (acceleration, deceleration, direction change)
While editing switch parameter - selection of switch parameter.
If numerical parameter is being edited, a short press of [ENTER] button
change edited position. A long press of [ENTER] button (at lest 2 sec.)
causes of display a ” Et?” ask, which allow user to make sure if change of
the parameter value is correct. If switch parameter is being edited, a short
press of [ENTER] button causes of display a ” Et?” ask. When [ENTER]
button is pressed again (while ” Et?” is displayed) the new value of the
parameter is stored in EEPROM memory.
Pressing this button operator can cancel the changes done up to now (if they
were not approved by [ENTER] button after the ” Et?” ask) and come back
to menu
7.3. MENU DESCRIPTION
“- - - -” - password checking. If some password different from „0000” is set, then every
enter to main menu follows the entering of password. If entered password is
correct then first menu position will be displayed else warning ”Err”, and unit
returns to measurement mode.
Due to problem with direct displaying of “m” and “K” letters, they are exchanged
with special signs “ “ for “m” and “ “ for K respectively. However, in user manual
letters „m” and “K” are used to make it more readable (example: “modE”, “tc K”).
