2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
• Multifunctional
SWP-99 designed for dis laying current values and resentation of technological
arameter trends in gra hic form. All measured arameters must be available in
0-20 mA or 4-20 mA (this can be for exam le ressures, levels, humidity,
tem eratures, forces, etc.).
• Configurable measurement and control input
The unit has u to 8 channels of 0-20 mA (4-20 mA) current signals. Each signal
can be freely configured and described. The internal analogue-digital converter has
a 12 bit resolution, which rovides high measurement resolution results.
Additionally, individual al hanumeric descri tion (text) of each of the in ut channels
is ossible.
• Fast serial interface
The digital indicator is fitted with a galvanic insulated RS 485 interface, rogrammed
with ModBus RTU transmission rotocol. This enables the connection of a number
of digital indicators into the network, remote collecting of data from each unit and
also remote configuration. The a lication of the RS 485 interface instead of RS
232 is due to the ossibility of achieving high transmission s eeds using
transmission lines of larger length than is ossible with the RS 232 interface.
• Wide range of power supply voltage and external sensor power supply
The built-in ulse ower su ly allows ower to be su lied to the unit with
85...230...260V AC/DC voltage or 16...24...35 AC, 19...24...50 DC voltage
(de ending on version). The voltage for owering the sensor and converters is
connected to the rear terminal stri : 24V DC ±5% / max. 200mA.
• Legible graphic display
The 128 x 64 oints dis lay with a backlight mounted on front of the unit is a big
advantage of the digital indicator. It allows the dis lay of trend gra hs for each
channel se arately. Different o eration modes rovide the ossibility of selecting
and adjusting the method of data resentation de ending on the user's
requirements. Additionally, it is ossible to set the dis lay to show one current value
measured for a selected channel.
• Easy configuration
There are 6 keys on the front of the digital indicator that enable the configuration of
the unit. The menu assisted with full text descri tions makes the unit configuration
rocess quite easy. However, due to a significant number of configured arameters
it is advised to use the attached configuration software for PCs.

4.3. CONNECTION METHOD
Caution
- Installation should be conducted by qualified ersonnel . During installation all
available safety requirements should be considered. The fitter is res onsible for
executing the installation according to this manual, local safety and EMC
regulations.
- The unit is not equi ed with an internal fuse or ower su ly circuit breaker.
Because of this an external time-delay cut-out fuse with minimal ossible nominal
current value must be used (recommended bi olar, max. 2A) and a ower su ly
circuit-breaker located near the unit. In the case of using a mono olar fuse it must
be mounted on the hase cable (L).
- The ower su ly 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
rotected against destruction with an electrical installation fuse.
- Wiring must meet a ro riate standards and local regulations and laws.
- In order to secure against accidental short circuit the connection cables must be
terminated with a ro riate insulated cable ti s.
- Tighten the clam ing screws. The recommended tightening torque is 0.5 Nm.
Loose screws can cause fire or defective o eration. Over tightening can lead to
damaging the connections inside the units and breaking the thread.
- In the case of the unit being fitted with se arable clam s they should be inserted
into a ro riate connectors in the unit, even if they are not used for any
connections.
- Unused clam s (marked as n.c.) must not be used for connecting any
connecting cables (e.g. as bridges), because this can cause damage to the
equi ment or electric shock.
- If the unit is equi ed with housing, covers and sealing acking, rotecting
against water intrusion, ay s ecial attention to their correct tightening or clam ing.
In the case of any doubt consider using additional reventive measures (covers,
roofing, seals, etc.). Carelessly executed assembly can increase the risk of electric
shock.
- After the installation is com leted do not touch the unit’s connections when it is
switched on, because it carries the risk of electrical shock.
Due to ossible significant interference in industrial installations a ro riate measures
assuring correct o eration of the unit must be a lied. To avoid the unit of im ro er
indications kee recommendations listed below.
-Avoid common ( arallel) leading of signal cables and transmission cables together with
ower su ly cables and cables controlling induction loads (e.g. contactors). Such cables
should cross at a right angle.
-Contactor coils and induction loads should be equi ed with anti-interference rotection
systems, e.g. RC-ty e.

User manual for Digital Indicator and cooperating software
-Use of screened signal cables is recommended. Signal 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 cou les of signal
cables (so-called “s irals”) is recommended. The s iral (best if shielded) must be used
with RS-485 serial transmission connections.
-In the case of interference from the ower su ly side the use of a ro riate anti-
interference filters is recommended. Bear in mind that the connection between the filter
and the unit should be as short as ossible and the metal housing of the filter must be
connected to the earthing with largest ossible surface. The cables connected to the filter
out ut must not run in arallel with cables with interference (e.g. circuits controlling relays
or contactors).
Connections of ower su ly voltage and measurement signals are executed using the
screw connections on the back of the unit’s housing.

Excessively high tem eratures cause faster ageing of the internal com onents and shorten the
fault-free time of unit o eration.
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 iso ro yl
alcohol.
Using any other agents can cause ermanent damage to the housing.

6. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
After turning the ower su ly on, the logo and basic unit data are showed on the
dis lay, then the unit goes to the measurement mode.
6.1. MEASUREMENT MODE
In the measurement mode the unit executes the measurement of values of signals
connected to current in uts, hereafter called measurement channels (the number of available
channels de ends on the unit version). Measurements are conducted at the frequency of
8 times er second for each channel. The nominal range of in ut current for each in ut is
0-20 mA or 4-20 mA and can be extended to the maximum of 0-22 mA, inde endently to each
measurement channel. The results of the conducted measurements are shown on the LCD
dis lay. The unit com utes the measurement results into indicated values ro ortionally
(linear). The range of measurement results corres onding to the nominal range of in ut
current is defined as nominal measurement range. The range of measurement results
corres onding to the range of in ut current including the extensions is defined as allowable
measurement range (Fig. 6.1).
* "Lower ext." arameter is only significant for an in ut current range of 4-20 mA.
Fig. 6.1. Defi itio of measureme t ra ges
The range of dis layed values, unit of measured value and osition of the decimal oint
(for resentation in numeric form) are defined by the user.
All available arameters of the unit’s o eration can be configured in the main menu (see
DEVICE PROGRAMMING) or using the RS 485 interface and software installed on your PC.
Configuration of the device (via menu or RS 485 interface) do not sto s
measures .
Results of measurements conducted for active (selected by the user) channels of the unit are
dis layed in one of the available result resentation modes (see RESULT PRESENTATION
MODES).

6.2. MODES OF RESULT PRESENTATION
The results of measurements conducted for active channels are resented in numeric or
gra hic (gra h or bar) form. Selection of one of the available results resentation modes can
be made using the [^] and [v] keys in the measurement mode. Configuration of the method of
dis laying in the selected results resentation mode can be made in the menu of the given
resentation mode (see DESCRIPTION OF RESULTS PRESENTATION MODES MENU). The
following resentation modes are available:
- "Single channel" mode (Fig. 6.2) enables the last
measurement for one of the measurement channels to be
viewed in the numeric and gra hic form (bar).
Fig. 6.2. "Single channel" mode
- "Graph" mode (Fig. 6.3) enables the momentary values
or averaged values of measurements conducted for one of
measurement channels to be viewed in the form of a
gra h.
Fig. 6.3. "graph" mode
- "Channels list" mode (Fig. 6.4, 6.5) enables the
measurement results for all active measurement channels
to be viewed in numeric or gra hic (bar) form.

After starting the unit the result resentation mode and channel selected rior to
switching off the unit are active (this information is stored in the EEPROM memory)
6.2.1. "Single channel" mode
This mode (Fig. 6.6) dis lays the result of the last measurement for one of the active
channels in numeric form (in the middle art of the dis lay) and in the form of a bar
( ercentage, at the bottom of the screen). The gra hical indicator (bar) always shows the
relation of the measurement result to the nominal measurement range (see descri tion of
"Hi value", "Lo value" arameters in the "In uts settings" menu).

• change channel number,
• change results resentation mode.
6.2.2. ”Graph” mode
In this mode (Fig. 6.9) the dis lay shows measurement results in the form of a gra h,
numeric form and in the form of a vertical bar. Numeric values (dis layed over the gra h) and
vertical bar (dis layed to the right of the gra h) indicate the value corres onding to the result
of the current measurement, irres ective of the set time scale of the gra h. The gra hical
indicator (bar dis layed to the right of the gra h) always indicates the measurement result to
the allowable measurement range ratio (see descri tion of "Hi value" "Lo value" arameters
in the "In uts settings" menu).
Fig. 6.9. U it i "Graph" result prese tatio mode
Exceeding the allowable measurement range (Fig. 6.10, 6.11) is announced on the bar in
the form of an arrow indicating the direction of exceeding the range. If the measurement result
for the given channel exceeds the allowable measurement range (Fig. 6.10, 6.11) instead of
the current numeric value (dis layed in the u er right corner) the dis lay shows a "-Hi-" or "-
Lo-" message (de ending on the direction of exceeding, see descri tion of "U er ext." and
"Lower ext." arameters in the "In uts settings" menu).

Fig. 6.10. Exceedi g the upper limit of the allowable measureme t ra ge
The dis lay shows oints corres onding to measurement results. Directly after switching
to the "Gra h" mode the dis lay shows oints of the gra h corres onding to measurement
results stored in memory. The oints that are dis layed next corres ond to the results of
conducted measurements. Therefore, if there are measurement results in the unit's memory,
they shall be dis layed directly after switching to the "Gra h" mode, otherwise
(no measurements in memory) the gra h oints corres onding to measurements results shall
be lotted from the time this mode is switched on. If the measurement result for the given
channel exceeds the allowable measurement range, then instead of the gra h oint
corres onding to the measurement result, the dis lay shows an arrow indicating the direction
of exceeding the range (Fig. 6.10, 6.11). Above the u er limit of gra h window the dis lay
shows oints corres onding to the measurement times.
The vertical scale of the gra h covers the values defined for the nominal range by "Hi value"
and "Lo value" arameters including extensions ("U er ext." and "Lower ext." arameters).
Fig. 6.11. Exceedi g lower limit of the allowable measureme t ra ge
In the case of the u er limit, lower limit, or both limits of measurement range being exceeded
in the given recording period, values re resented in the form of arrows indicating the
direction of exceeding (u , down, or both directions) will be recorded in the unit's memory
instead of the averaged results.
