Loose screws can cause fire or defective operation. Over tightening can lead to
damaging the connections inside the units and breaking the thread.
- The unit is equipped with housing, cover and gland or M12 connector, 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.
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 common (parallel) leading of signal cables and transmission cables together with
power supply cables and cables controlling induction loads (e.g. contactors). Such cables
should cross at a right angle.
–Contactor coils and induction loads should be equipped with anti-interference protection
systems, e.g. RC-type.
–In the case of magnetically induced interference the use of twisted couples of signal
cables (so-called “spirals”) is recommended.

6. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Device is supplied from current loop. For proper work of device it is required to guarantee
that signal value of current loop is greater than 3.5 mA. If signal value is too low then running
decimal point is displayed. Device configuration using remote controller is possible if signal
value of current loop is greater than 10 mA (it is signalised by front panel LED marked “IR”).
6.1. MEASUREMENT MODE
In the measure mode, the measurement results, converted over selected characteristic,
are displayed on the LED display. The measurement range equal to the nominal range is
called: nominal measurement range, and the measurement range equal to the extended
nominal range is called: permissible measurement range (figure 6.1).
Figure 6.1. Defi itio s of measureme t ra ges i mode 4 ÷ 20mA
If the result of measurement exceeds the permissible measurement range, warning
“ Hi ” or “ Lo ” is displayed rather than input signal, depends on exceeded value (see
description of “Lo r” i “Hi r” parameters, paragraph “inPt” menu).
If the measurement value do not exceeds permissible measurement range, but
displayed value exceeds range -999 ÷ 9999, the warning “ Ov ” is displayed rather
than the calculated result.
Range of displaying values, characteristic of conversion, decimal point position and
measure filtering ratio, are user configurable parameters. All accessible parameters can be
changed by entering the menu (see: DEVICE PROGRAMMING). Use the remote controller to
do it.
Configuration of the device via menu do not stops measures.

6.2. DETECTION OF THE PEAK VALUES
The SWE N55L 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 6.2). If no peaks are detected while time “timE” elapses, device starts to
show the current value of input signal again.
Figure 6.2. Process of peaks detectio
6.3. CONTROL OF THE RELAY OUTPUT
Device is equipped with one bistable SPDT relay output. Front panel LED named “R”
indicates the state of the relay output.
After device power on relay is in the same state as it was set while power off (see
parameter “AL” of “rEL” menu description). There is no possibility to change relay state
until 10 seconds elapsed since device power on. During this period it is required to power
device by at least 3.5 mA current. Otherwise the waiting time is extended by the time of waiting
for the correct current. Each next change of the relay state is possible after at least 4 seconds
since last change of the relay state. This delay is also extended by the time of waiting for the
correct current (minimum 3.5 mA). During device power off the relay is set according to the
value of “AL” parameter.
Modes of the control can be changed depend on the values of parameters “SEtP”,
“SEt2”, “HYSt”, “modE” and “AL”. Depend on “modE” parameter, relay can be used or
controlled over one or two thresholds values.
If one threshold is used (figure 6.4) the relay can be turned on (“modE” = “on”) or off
(“modE” = “oFF”) when the input signal value enters the zone A. If two thresholds are used
(figure 6.5) the relay will be turned on when value of input signal enters the zone A (“modE” =
“in”) or zone B (“modE” = “out”) and turned off if the signal enters the second one.

6.3.1. One threshold mode
Figure 6.5 presents the principle of relay output operation for one threshold mode and an
example values of other parameters.
Description:
A, B, C, D - points where measured signal exceeds border values (expected value ± allowed deviation)
tA , tB , tC , tD - time periods while input signal is in zone A or zone B
Figure 6.5. Pri ciple of LED/relay output operatio for o e threshold mode
Parameter “SEtP” sets a threshold of the relay, and parameter “HYSt” sets
a hysteresis of the relay (figure 6.5 a). The relay can change his state only when input value
exceeds (over or under) border value. Border values means values equal
threshold+hysteresis and threshold-hysteresis respectively.
The relay state will be changed as soon as input value exceeds any of the
border values (see points A and C, figure 6.5 a, b, c) but only if at least 4 seconds elapsed
since last change of the relay state. In the other case relay state will be changed after required
delay (4 sec) if the condition of changing the relay still is fulfilled.
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 enters the zone A (figure 6.6 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 relay will be
turned on, turned off or not changed in critical situations.
All parameters connected with relay outputs are described in paragraph “rEL” menu.

Figure 6.6. Pri ciple of LED/relay output operatio for two thresholds mode
Figure 6.6 presents the principle of relay outputs operation for two thresholds mode, and
an example values of other parameters. In this mode parameter “SEt2” is accessible in
common with “SEtP”, this parameter describes a second threshold of the relay output. The
parameters “HYSt”, “modE” and “AL” are connected with both “SEtP” and “SEt2”
thresholds. While the controlling process, the relay output changes his state depends of both
“SEtP” and “SEt2” 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 enters the zone A (“modE” = “in”) or zone B
(“modE” = “out”) and turned off if it enters the second one (figure 7.1).
The sequence of thresholds “SEtP” and “SEt2” can be set in any order, due to the
control of relay output is done depend on difference between thresholds values
(zone A) and outside of thresholds values (zone B).

7.1. PROGRAMMING MENU
To enter main menu (being in the measurement mode) operator must to press and hold
at least 2 sec. [ESC/MENU] button.
If the user password is defined (see parameter “Scod”), 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.
Functions of the buttons while sub-menu and parameters choice:
Selection 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,
[ESC/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 (+/-). Short pressing of the [ENTER] button causes
change of the position (digit).
Press [ENTER] at least 2 seconds to accept the changes, after that question “SEt?” is
displayed, and user must to confirm (or cancel) the changes. To conform changes (and story it
in EEPROM) press [ENTER] button shortly after “SEt?” is displayed. To cancel the changes
press [ESC] button shortly after “SEt?” is displayed. After that device returns to the menu.

7.2.2. Switch parameters (“LIST” type)
Switch 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.
Short pressing of [ENTER] causes in displaying of the acknowledge question (“SEt?”). If
key [ENTER] is pressed again, the changes are accepted, stored in EEPROM end the edition
process finished. Pressing the key [ESC] after “SEt?” 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.
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 “SEt?” 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 “SEt?” ask. When [ENTER]
button is pressed again (while “SEt?” 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 “SEt?” 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” letter, it is exchanged with special sign
“ “. Independently in user manual letter “m” is used to make it more readable
(example: “modE”).
7.3.1. “rEL” menu
This menu allows to configure the operation mode of relay and LED marked “R”.
Principle of the relay operation is described in paragraph CONTROL OF THE RELAY
OUTPUT.
The relay output and LED (named R) can be controlled depend on both - the current
value and the peak value (when peak detection is active) of the input signal.
“SEtP” - first threshold of the relay (range -999 ÷ 9999). Negative values can be input by
selecting a “-” sign on first digit (to change value use [^] and [v] buttons).
Threshold is the medium value of relay hysteresis.

“SEt2” - second threshold of the relay (range -999 ÷ 9999). Negative values can be input
by selecting a “-” sign on first digit ( to change value use [^] and [v] buttons). This
threshold is accessible when “modE” parameter is set to “in” or “out” value.
Threshold is the medium value of relay hysteresis.
“HYSt” - hysteresis of relay (range 0 ÷ 999). Full hysteresis of the relay is equal to 2x
“HYSt” parameter. The relay state can change when an input signal is out of
threshold hysteresis to threshold+hysteresis zone.
Presented parameters should be set to ensure that “SEtP” + ”HYSt”,
“SEt2” + ”HYSt”, “SEtP” ”HYSt” or “SEt2” ”HYSt” do not exceeds the
measure range. Additionally, in two threshold mode (“modE” = “in” or “out”),
the hysteresis for both thresholds must not cover each other (in other case relay
can't change its state).
“modE” - relay operation mode:
“noAc” - the relay is not active (doesn’t change state)
“on” - one threshold mode, the relay turns ON when input signal exceeds from
the bottom SEtP+HYSt value, and turns OFF when exceeds from the top
SEtP HYSt,
“oFF” - one threshold mode, the relay turns ON when input signal exceeds from
the top SEtP HYSt value, and turns OFF when exceeds from the bottom
SEtP+HYSt,
“in” - two threshold mode, the relay turns ON when the input signal exceeds
from the bottom “lower threshold + HYSt” or from the top
“bigger threshold - HYSt”, and turns OFF when exceeds from the top
“lower threshold HYSt” or from the bottom
“bigger threshold + HYSt”. The bigger threshold means bigger one of
“SEtP” and “SEt2” thresholds, the lower threshold means lower one of
“SEtP” and “SEt2” thresholds.
“out” - two threshold mode, the relay turns ON when the input signal exceeds
from the top “lower threshold HYSt” or from the bottom
“bigger threshold + HYSt”, and turns OFF when exceeds from the
bottom “lower threshold + HYSt” or from the top
“bigger threshold - HYSt”. The bigger threshold means bigger one of
“SEtP” and “SEt2” thresholds, the lower threshold means lower one of
“SEtP” and “SEt2” thresholds.
•LED lights when “ON” part of the relay is closed, independently of relay’s
mode.
• When power supply fail, unit sets relay state accordingly to “AL” parameter.

User manual - METER SWE-N55L
“AL” - this parameter defines the relay reaction when some critical situations occurs:
“noCH” - relay do not change his state,
“on” - relay will be turned ON,
“oFF” - relay will be turned OFF.
If parameter “modE” is set to “on” , “oFF”, “in” or “Out” the “critical situation”
means that allowable measurement range is exceeded.
•If option “noCH” is selected for “AL” parameter, behaviour of the relay may
depend on “FiLt” parameter in some cases. If “FiLt” is set to big value and the
input signal drops, result value of the measure will change slow, causes of
turning on or off relay due to thresholds values. The critical situation is slowly
detected, so it is impossible to predict the relay state in that situations.
•If parameter “AL” = “on”, the relay will be turned on in the critical situations,
even if his parameter “modE” = “noAC”.
7.3.2. “inPt” menu
This menu presets the measurement input:
“CHAr” - this option presets type of the conversion characteristic, and can be set to:
“Lin” - linear
“Sqr” - square
“Sqrt” - square root
When one of those characteristics is chosen display
range is defined by “Lo C” and “Hi C”.
“USEr” - user defined characteristic. Maximal length 20 points. Every point is
defined by user. Adding, Editing and Deleting of points is done by options
“AddP”, “EdtP”, “dELP” (“InPt” menu) respectively.
If user defined characteristic is selected, and if number of defined points is lower
than 2 then warning “Errc” is displayed in measurement mode.
The process of displayed result calculation is described in details in DISPLAY VALUES
CALCULATION paragraph.
“FiLt” - this parameter sets filtration rate. It can be set to values from 0 (no filtration ) to 5
(strongest filtration – time window about 3 sec).
“Pnt” - decimal point position. It can be set to one of:
“ ”, “ . ”, “ . ”, “ . ”
Decimal point position is changed by [^], [v] buttons.
“Lo C”
“Hi C”
These parameters describe the values displayed for minimum and maximum input
current. “Lo C” parameter defines the value displayed when input current is equal
4 mA, and “Hi C” parameter defines the value displayed for 20 mA of input current.
Available range for these parameters: -999 ÷ 9999. Negative values can be set by
entering ' ' sign on the first position (by use of [^], [v] buttons).

User manual - METER SWE-N55L
If user defined characteristic is selected (parameter “CHAr” = “USEr”) the
parameters “Lo C” and “Hi C” are not available for modification, due to their values
are calculated from defined characteristic.
“AddP” - this menu allow user to add single point to the user defined characteristic.
After selection of this option device waits for “X” and “Y” coordinates of new point.
Modification of the coordinates is done accordingly to numerical parameters edition.
Coordinate “X” defines the percentage ratio of input current to selected current
range. The “X” range: -99,9 ÷ 199,9. Coordinate “Y” defines displayed value for
particular “X” value. The “Y” value can be changed in range: -999 ÷ 9999, decimal
point position depend on “Pnt” parameter (menu “inPt”).
• User can not enter two points with the same value of “X” coordinate. If user
trays to do it, “Err” warning is displayed. To modify any defined point use
“EdtP” option.
• To distinguish “X” and “Y” coordinates, if “X” coordinate is displayed an
additional decimal point on utmost right position is displayed.
• If user defined characteristic is selected, and if number of defined points is lower
than 2 then warning “Errc” is displayed in measurement mode.
“dELP” - this option allows user to delete any of the points of the user defined
characteristic. After selection current number of points of the user defined
characteristic is displayed for about approx. 1.5 sec. After that device waits for
selection of point being deleted (by [^], [v] buttons). The short pressing of [ENTER]
button causes by switching between X and Y value of the displayed point. The long
press (press and hold at least 2 sec) of [ENTER] button causes by displaying
“dEL?” ask. If [ENTER] button is pressed again, current point is deleted and new
updated number of points of the user defined characteristic is displayed.
“EdtP” - this option allows user to modify of particular point of the user defined
characteristic. After selection current number of points of the user defined
characteristic is displayed for about approx. 1.5 sec. After that device waits for
selection of point being edited (by [^], [v] buttons). The short pressing of [ENTER]
button causes by switching between X and Y value of the displayed point. The long
press (press and hold at least 2 sec) of [ENTER] button causes by entering to edit
the selected coordinate of the point. Modification of the coordinates is done
accordingly to numerical parameters edition.
“AddP”, “dELP” and “EdtP” options are available only if the user defined
characteristic is used (it means when parameter “CHAr” = “USEr”).
“Lo r”, “Hi r” - these parameters define the expansion of nominal range in percent. They
determine the permissible range of input signal (figure 7.1).
The permissible range allow user to exceed the nominal range of input signal.
If input value is contained in the permissible range a proper result is displayed.
If input signal exceeds this range (defined by “Lo r” and “Hi r”), “ Lo ” or
“ Hi ” warning is displayed depend on input signal value.

“Lo r” a d “Hi r” parameters
The “Lo r” parameter determines lower border of the permissible range calculated
due to expression: Imin = 4 mA - 4 mA × “Lo r” %.
The “Lo r” value can be set from 0 to 12.4%.
Parameter “Hi r” determines the upper border of the permissible range accordingly
to the expression: Imax = 20 mA + 20 mA × “Hi r” %.
The value of “Hi r” can be set from 0 to 19.9%
In example no 1 of the DISPLAY VALUES CALCULATION paragraph the
procedure of the permissible input range determining is presented in details.
If the measurement value do not exceeds permissible measurement range but
displayed value exceeds range -999 ÷ 9999, the warning “Ov ” is displayed rather
than the calculated result.
7.3.3. ”HOLd” menu
This menu contains parameters connected with peak detection function. See also full
description of the peak detection function in paragraph: DETECTION OF THE PEAK VALUES
“modE” - the type of detected changes of the input signal, can be set to values:
“norm” - peaks - peak and next drop of the input signal of value equal at least “PEA”,
“inv” - drops - drop and next peak of the input signal of value equal at least “PEA”,
“PEA” - minimal detected signal change classified as peak or drop (see Figure 6.2)
“timE” - maximum time of displaying of the peak (drop) value, can be set from 0.0 to 19.9
sec, with 0.1 sec. resolution.
“HdiS” - type of displayed values:
“rEAL” - current value is displayed,
“HOLd” - peak (drop) value is displayed,
