2 - PROGRAMMING
2.1 - FAST PROGRAMMING OF THE SET POINT
This procedure permits rapid programming of the Set Point (SP1)
and the alarm threshold (AL1).
Push key “P”, then release it and the display will visualise “SP 1”
alternatively to the programmed value.
To modify the value, press “UP” key to increase it or the “DOWN”
key to decrease it.
These keys change the value one digit at a time but if they are
pressed for more than one second, the value increases or
decreases rapidly and, after two seconds in the same condition, the
changing speed increases in order to allow the desired value to be
reached rapidly.
Once the desired value has been reached, by pushing key P it is
possible to exit by the fast programming mode, or (if the instrument
have an output configured as alarm) it is possible to visualise and
modify the “AL1” alarm threshold like Set “SP1”.
To exit the fast Set programming it is necessary to push key P,
after the visualisation of the last Set Point, or alternatively, if no key
is pressed for approx. 15 seconds, the display will return to normal
functioning automatically.
Set Point “SP1” can be programmed with a value that is between
the value programmed on par. “SPLL” and the one programmed
on par. “SPHL”.
2.2 - PARAMETERS PROGRAMMING
By pushing key "P" and holding it down for approx. 2 sec. it is
possible to enter into the main selection menu.
Using the "UP" or DOWN” keys, it is then possible to roll over the
selections:
to enter into the configuration parameters menu
(PASSWORD is required)
"ConF"
to enter into the operating parameters menu
"OPEr"
Once the desired item has been selected, push key “P” to confirm.
Selecting "OPEr" and "ConF" gives the possibility of accessing
other menus containing additional parameters and more precisely :
"OPEr" - Operating parameters Menu: this normally contains the
Set Point “SP1” and the alarm threshold “AL1” parameters but it
can contain all the desired parameters (see par. 2.3).
"ConF" - Configuration parameters Menu: this contains all the
operating parameters and the functioning configuration parameters.
ATTENTION: The instrument is programmed in factory with all the
parameters, to exception of the Set Point "SP1" and the alarm
threshold “AL1” , programmable in the menù "ConF" to the purpose
to prevent wrong accidental programming from non experienced
consumers.
2 sec.
Hold for
To enter the menu “ConF” select the option “ConF”, press the key
“P” and the display will show “0”.
At this request, enter, using keys “UP” and “DOWN”, the number
reported on the last page of this manual and push key “P”.
If an incorrect password is entered, the instrument exit from
programming mode.
If the password is correct, the display will visualise the code
identifying the first group of parameters (“
]
SP “) and with keys “UP”
and “DOWN” it will be possible to select the desired group of
parameters.
Once the desired group of parameters has been selected, the code
identifying the first parameter of the selected group will be
visualised by pushing the “P” key.
Again using the “UP” and “DOWN” keys, it is possible to select the
desired parameter and, if the key “P” is pressed, the display will
alternatively show the parameter’s code and its programming value,
which can be modified by using the “UP” or “DOWN” keys.
Once the desired value has been programmed, push key “P” once
more: the new value will be memorised and the display will show
only the code of the selected parameter.
By using the “UP” or “DOWN” keys, it is then possible to select a
new parameter (if present) and modify it as described above.
To select another group of parameters, keep the “UP” or “DOWN”
key pressed for approx. 2 sec., afterwards the display will return to
visualise the code of the group of parameters.
Release the key and by using the “UP” and “DOWN” keys, it will be
possible to select a new group.
To exit the programming mode, no key should be pressed for
approx. 20 seconds, or keep the “UP” or “DOWN” pressed until exit
from the programming mode is obtained.
The programming and exit modes for the “OPEr” menu are the
same as those described for menu “ConF” with the difference that
to access the menù "OPEr" the Password is not required.

2.3 - PARAMETERS PROGRAMMING LEVELS
The menu “OPEr” normally contains the parameter “SP1”; however
it is possible to make all desired parameters appear or disappear
on this level, by following this procedure:
Enter the menu “ConF” and select the parameter to be made
programmable or not programmable in the menu “OPEr”.
Once the parameter has been selected, if the LED SET is switched
off, this means that the parameter is programmable only in the
menu “ConF”, if instead the LED is on, this means that the
parameter is also programmable in the menu “OPEr”.
To modify the visibility of the parameter, push key “U” : the LED
SET will change its state indicating the parameter accessibility level
(on = menu ”OPEr” and “ConF”; off = menu “ConF” only).
The Set Point ”SP1” and the alarm threshold “AL1” will only be
visible on the Set Point fast programming level (described in par.
2.1) if are present in the menu “OPEr”).

3 - INFORMATION ON INSTALLATION AND US
E
3.1 - PERMITTED USE
The instrument has been projected and
manufactured as a measuring and control device
to be used according to EN61010-1 for the
altitudes operation until 2000 ms.
The use of the instrument for applications not
expressly permitted by the above mentioned rule must adopt all the
necessary protective measures.
The instrument CANNOT be used in dangerous environments
(flammable or explosive) without adequate protection.
The installer must ensure that EMC rules are respected, also after
the instrument installation, if necessary using proper filters.
Whenever a failure or a malfunction of the device may cause
dangerous situations for persons, thing or animals, please
remember that the plant has to be equipped with additional devices
which will guarantee safety.
3.2 – MECHANICAL MOUNTING
The instrument, in DIN case 48 x 48 mm, is designed for flush-in
panel mounting.
Make a hole 45 x 45 mm and insert the instrument, fixing it with the
provided special bracket.
We recommend that the gasket is mounted in order to obtain the
front protection degree as declared. Avoid placing the instrument in
environments with very high humidity levels or dirt that may create
condensation or introduction of conductive substances into the
instrument.
Ensure adequate ventilation to the instrument and avoid installation
in containers that house devices which may overheat or which may
cause the instrument to function at a higher temperature than the
one permitted and declared.
Connect the instrument as far away as possible from sources of
electromagnetic disturbances such as motors, power relays, relays,
solenoid valves, etc.
The instrument can be removed from its housing from the front side
: it is recommended that the instrument be disconnected from the
power supply when it is necessary to carry out this operation.
3.3 - ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Carry out the electrical wiring by connecting only one wire to each
terminal, according to the following diagram, checking that the
power supply is the same as that indicated on the instrument and
that the load current absorption is no higher than the maximum
electricity current permitted.
As the instrument is built-in equipment with permanent connection
inside housing, it is not equipped with either switches or internal
devices to protect against overload of current: the installation will
include an overload protection and a two-phase circuit-breaker,
placed as near as possible to the instrument, and located in a
position that can easily be reached by the user and marked as
instrument disconnecting device which interrupts the power supply
to the equipment.
It is also recommended that the supply of all the electrical circuits
connected to the instrument must be protect properly, using
devices (ex. fuses) proportionate to the circulating currents.
It is strongly recommended that cables with proper insulation,
according to the working voltages and temperatures, be used.
Furthermore, the input cable of the probe has to be kept separate
from line voltage wiring. If the input cable of the probe is screened,
it has to be connected to the ground with only one side.
We recommend that a check should be made that the parameters
are those desired and that the application functions correctly before
connecting the outputs to the actuators so as to avoid
malfunctioning that may cause irregularities in the plant that could
cause damage to people, things or animals.

4.1 - MEASURING AND VISUALIZATION
All the parameters referring measurements are contained in the
group “
]
InP”.
Depending on the model required the input accept:
C: Thermocouples temperature probes (J,K,S and TECNOLOGIC
IRS Infrared sensors), mV signals (0..50/60 mV, 12..60 mV),
Thermoresistances PT100.
E: Thermocouples temperature probes (J,K,S and TECNOLOGIC
IRS Infrared sensors), mV signals (0..50/60 mV, 12..60 mV),
Thermistors PTC and NTC.
I: normalized analogue signals 0/4..20 mA
V: normalized analogue signals 0..1 V, 0/1..5 V, 0/2..10 V
Depending on the model, using par. “SEnS”, it’s possible to select
the type of input probe, which can be :
- for thermocouples J (J), K (CrAL), S (S) or for infrared sensors
serie TECNOLOGIC IRTC1 with linearization J (Ir.J) or K (Ir.CA)
- for thermoresistances Pt100 IEC (Pt1) or thermistors PTC
KTY81-121 (Ptc) or NTC 103AT-2 (ntc)
- for normalised signals in current 0..20 mA (0.20) or 4..20 mA
(4.20)
- for normalised signals in tension 0..1 V (0.1), 0..5 V (0.5), 1..5 V
(1.5), 0..10 V (0.10) or 2..10 V (2.10).
- for normalised signals in tension 0..50 mV (0.50), 0..60 mV (0.60),
12..60 mV (12.60).
We recommend to switch on and off the instrument when these
parameters are modified, in order to obtain a correct measuring.
For the instruments with input for temperature probes (tc, rtd) it’s
possible to select, through par. “Unit”, the unit of measurement
(°C, °F) and, through par. “dP” (Pt100, PTC and NTC only) the
desired resolution (0=1°; 1=0,1°).
Instead, with regards to the instruments with normalised analogue
input signals, it is first necessary to program the desired resolution
on par. “dP” (0=1; 1=0,1; 2=0,01; 3=0,001) and then, on par.
"SSC", the value that the instrument must visualise at the
beginning of the scale (0/4 mA, 0/12 mV, 0/1 V o 0/2 V) and, on
par. "FSC", the value that the instrument must visualise at the end
of the scale (20 mA, 50 mV, 60 mV, 5 V or 10 V).
The instrument allows for measuring calibration, which may be
used to recalibrate the instrument according to application needs,
by using par. “OFSt” and “rot”.
Programming par. “rot”=1,000, in par. “OFSt” it is possible to set a
positive or negative offset that is simply added to the value read by
the probe before visualisation, which remains constant for all the
measurements.
If instead, it is desired that the offset set should not be constant for
all the measurements, it is possible to operate the calibration on
any two points.
TECNOLOGIC spa - TLK 48 B - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - Vr. 03 - 12/04 - ISTR 06877 - PAG. 3

In this case, in order to decide which values to program on par.
“OFSt” and “rot”, the following formulae must be applied :
“rot” = (D2-D1) / (M2-M1) “OFSt” = D2 - (“rot” x M2)
where:
M1 =measured value 1
D1 = visualisation value when the instrument measures M1
M2 =measured value 2
D2 = visualisation value when the instrument measures M2
It then follows that the instrument will visualise :
DV = MV x “rot” + “OFSt”
where: DV = visualised value MV= measured value
Example 1: It is desired that the instrument visualises the value
effectively measured at 20° but that, at 200°, it visualises a value
lower than 10° (190°).
Therefore : M1=20 ; D1=20 ; M2=200 ; D2=190
“rot” = (190 - 20) / (200 - 20) = 0,944
“OFSt” = 190 - (0,944 x 200) = 1,2
Example 2: It is desired that the instrument visualises 10° whilst the
value actually measured is 0°, but, at 500° it visualises a 50° higher
value (550°).
Therefore : M1=0 ; D1=10 ; M2=500 ; D2=550
“rot” = (550 - 10) / (500 - 0) = 1,08
“OFSt” = 550 - (1,08 x 500) = 10
By using par. “FiL” it is possible to program time constant of the
software filter for the input value measured, in order to reduce
noise sensitivity (increasing the time of reading).
In case of measurement error, the instrument supplies the power
as programmed on par. “OPE”.
This power will be calculated according to cycle time programmed
for the PID controller, while for the ON/OFF controllers the cycle
time is automatically considered to be equal to 20 sec. (e.g. In the
event of probe error with ON/OFF control and “OPE”=50, the
control output will be activated for 10 sec., then it will be
deactivated for 10 sec. and so on until the measurement error
remains.).
In the group “
]
PAn” the par. “AdE” is present that defines the 3
led shift index functioning.
The lighting up of the green led = indicates that the process value
is within the range [SP1+AdE ... SP1-AdE], the lighting up of the
led – indicates that the process value is lower than [SP1-AdE] and
the lighting up of the led + indicates that the process value is higher
than [SP1+AdE].
4.2 - OUTPUTS CONFIGURATION
The instrument’s outputs can be programmed by entering the group
of parameters “
]
Out, where the relative parameters “O1F” and
“O2F” (depending on the number of outputs available on the
instrument) are located.
The outputs can be set for the following functions :
- Main control output (1.rEG)
- Secondary control output (2.rEG)
- Alarm output normally open (ALno)
- Alarm output normally closed (ALnc)
- Alarm output normally closed with led reverse indication (ALni)
- Output deactivated (OFF)
The coupling outputs number outputs – number alarms can be
made in the group referring to the alarm to the alarm (“
]
AL1”).
4.3 - ON/OFF CONTROL (1.rEG)
All the parameters referring to the ON/OFF control are contained in
the group “
]
rEG”.
This type of control can be obtained by programming par."Cont" =
On.FS or = On.FA and works on the output programmed as 1.rEG,
depending on the measure, on the Set Point “SP1”, on the
functioning mode "Func” and on the hysteresis "HSEt".
The instrument carries out an ON/OFF control with symmetric
hysteresis if “Cont" = On.FS or with asymmetrical hysteresis if
“Cont” = On.FA.
The control works in the following way : in the case of reverse
action, or heating (“FunC”=HEAt), it deactivates the output, when
the process value reaches [SP1 + HSEt] in case of symmetrical
hysteresis, or [SP1] in case of asymmetrical hysteresis and is then
activated again when the process value goes below value [SP1 -
HSEt].
Vice versa, in case of direct action or cooling ("Func”=CooL), it
deactivates the output, when the process value reaches [SP1 -
HSEt] in case of symmetrical hysteresis, or [SP1] in case of
asymmetrical hysteresis and is activated again when the process
value goes above value [SP1 + HSEt].

4.4 - NEUTRAL ZONE ON/OFF CONTROL (1.rEG - 2.rEG)
All the parameters referring to Neutral Zone ON/OFF control are
contained in the group “
]
rEG”.
This type of control can be obtained when 2 outputs are
programmed respectively as 1.rEG and 2.rEG and the par. “Cont”
= nr .
The Neutral Zone control is used to control plants in which there is
an element which causes a positive increase (ex. Heater,
humidifier, etc.) and an element which causes a negative increase
(ex. Cooler, de-humidifier, etc).
The control functions works on the programmed outputs depending
on the measurement, on the Set Point “SP1” and on the hysteresis
"HSEt".
The control works in the following way : it deactivates the outputs
when the process value reaches the Set Point and it activates the
output 1.rEG when the process value goes below value [SP1 -
HSEt], or it activates the output 2.rEG when the process value goes
above [SP1 + HSEt].
Consequently, the element causing a positive increase has to be
connected to the output programmed as 1.rEG while the element
causing a negative increase has to be connected to the output
programmed as 2.rEG.

If 2.rEG output is used to control compressor is possible to use the
“Compressor Protection” function that has the meaning to avoid
compressor “short cycles”.
This function allows a control by time on the output 2.rEG
activation, independently by the temperature control request.
The protection is a “delayed after deactivation” type.
This protection permits to avoid the output activation for a time
programmable on par. “CPdt” (expressed in sec.); the output
activation will occurs only after the elapsing of time “CPdt”.
The time programmed on parameter “CPdt” is counted starting from
the last output deactivation.
Obviously, whether during the time delay caused by the
compressor protection function, the regulator request should stop,
the output activation foreseen after time “CPdt” would be erased.
The function is not active programming “CPdt” =OFF.
The led relative to 2.rEG output blinks during the phases of output
activation delay, caused by “Compressor Protection” function.

4.5 - SINGLE ACTION PID CONTROL (1.rEG)
All the parameters referring to PID control are contained in the
group “
]
rEG”.
The Single Action PID control can be obtained by programming
par."Cont" = Pid and works on the output 1.rEG depending on the
Set Point “SP1”, on the functioning mode "Func” and on the
instrument’s PID algorithm.

In order to obtain good stability of the process variable, in the event
of fast processes, the cycle time “tcr1” has to have a low value with
a very frequent intervention of the control output.
In this case use of a solid state relay (SSR) is recommended for
driving the actuator.
The Single Action PID control algorithm foresees the setting of the
following parameters :
"Pb" - Proportional Band
"tcr1" - Cycle time of the output 1.rEG
"Int" - Integral Time
"rS" - Manual Reset (if “Int =0 only)
"dEr" - Derivative Time
“FuOC” - Fuzzy Overshoot Control
This last parameter allows the variable overshoots at the start up of
the process or at the changing of the Set Point to be avoided.
Please remember that a low value on this parameter reduces the
overshoot while a high value increase it.

4.6 - DOUBLE ACTION PID CONTROL (1.rEG - 2.rEG)
All the parameters referring to PID control are contained in the
group “
]
rEG”.
The Double Action PID control is used to control plants where there
is an element which causes a positive increase (ex. Heating) and
an element which causes a negative increase (ex. Cooling).
This type of control can be obtained when 2 outputs are
programmed respectively as 1.rEG and 2.rEG and the par. “Cont”
= Pid.
The element causing a positive increase has to be connected to the
output programmed as 1.rEG while the element causing a negative
increase has to be connected to the output programmed as 2.rEG.
The Double Action PID control works on the outputs 1.rEG and
2.rEG depending on the Set Point “SP1” and on the instrument’s
PID algorithm.
In order to obtain good stability of the process variable, in case of
fast processes, the cycle times “tcr1” and “tcr2” have to have a low
value with a very frequent intervention of the control outputs.
In this case use of solid state relays (SSR) to drive the actuators is
recommended.
The Double Action PID control algorithm needs the programming of
the following parameters :
"Pb" - Proportional Band
"tcr1" - Cycle time of the output 1.rEG
“tcr 2” - Cycle time of the output 2.rEG
"Int" - Integral Time
"rS" - Manual Reset (if “Int =0 only)
"dEr" - Derivative Time
“FuOC” - Fuzzy Overshoot Control
"Prat" - Power Ratio or relation between power of the element
controlled by output 2.rEG and power of the element controlled by
output 1.rEG.
4.7 - AUTOTUNING FUNCTION
All the parameters referring to the AUTOTUNING function are
contained in the group “
]
rEG”.
The AUTO-TUNING function (FAST or OSCILLATING type)
permits the calculation of the PID parameters by means of a tuning
cycle and, at the end of this operation, the parameters are stored
into the instrument’s memory and remain constant during control.
Both modes calculate the following parameters automatically:
“Pb” - Proportional band
“tcr1” - output cycle time
“Int” - integral time
“dEr” - derivative time
“FuOC” - Fuzzy Overshoot Control
To activate the AUTOTUNING function, proceed as follows:
1) Set the Set point “SP1" desired.
2) Set the parameter "Cont" =Pid.
3) Program par. "Func" according to the process to be controlled
through output 1.rEG.
4) Program an output as 2.rEG if the instrument controls a plant
with double action
5) Set the parameter "Auto" as:
= 1 - if the autotuning is to be started automatically each time the
instrument is turned on.
= 2 - if the autotuning is to be started automatically when the
instrument is turned on the next time and, once tuning has been
completed, the parameter “Auto"=OFF is set automatically.
= 3 - if autotuning is started up manually, by the key U
= 4 - if autotuning is to be started automatically each time the
regulation set is changed.
6) Set the parameter "A.SEL" as:
= FASt - for FAST mode autotuning
= OSC - for OSCILLATING mode autotuning
Note : the Autotuning Fast type is particularly rapid and has no
effect on the control as it calculates the parameters during the Set
Point reaching phase.
In order to correctly perform the Autotuning Fast type it’s necessary
that at the start of the cycle there is a certain difference between
the process and the Set Point and for this reason the instrument
activates the Autotuning Fast type only when :
- For “Auto” = 1 or 2: the process value is lower (with “Func” =HEAt)
than [SP- |SP/2|] or higher (with “Func” =CooL) than [SP+ |SP/2|].
- For “Auto” = 3 or 4 : the process value is lower (with “Func”
=HEAt) than [SP- |SP/5|] or higher (with “Func” =CooL) than [SP+
|SP/5|].
The Autotuning Fast type is not advisable when the Set Point is
next to the initial reading or when the measured variable changes
irregularly during the tuning cycle (for reasons due to the process
the variable goes up or down).
In this cases we advice the Autotuning oscillatory type that
activates some ON-OFF control cycles permitting the oscillation of
the process value around the Se Point value and afterward the
control swap to the PID type with those values calculated by the
Autotuning.
7) Exit the parameter programming mode.
8) Connect the instrument to the controlled system.
9) Start up autotuning turning off and on the machine if “Auto" = 1
or 2, pressing the key U if “Auto" = 3, or by varying the Set value if
“Auto" = 4.
At this point, the Autotuning function is started up and is marked by
the turning on of the led AT/ST.
The regulator starts up a series of operations on the connected
system in order to calculate the most suitable PID regulation
parameters.
TECNOLOGIC spa - TLK 48 B - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - Vr. 03 - 12/04 - ISTR 06877 - PAG. 5

If, at the FAST Auto-tuning start, the condition for the lower or
higher process value is not found the display will show “ErAt” and
the instrument will be swapped to normal control conditions
according to the previously programmed parameters.
To make the error “ErAt” disappear, press key P.
The autotuning cycle is limited to a maximum of 12 hours.
If the process has not ended in 12 hours the instrument will show
"noAt" .
Instead, if a probe error should occur, the instrument will interrupt
the cycle being carried out.
The values calculated by Autotuning will be memorized
automatically by the instrument at the end of the correct completion
of the autotuning cycle in the parameters related to PID regulation.
4.8 - REACHING OF THE SET POINT AT CONTROLLED SPEED
All the parameters referring to the ramps functioning are contained
in the group “
]
rEG”.
It is possible to reach the set point in a predetermined time (in any
case longer than the time the plant would naturally need). This
could be useful in those processes (heating or chemical
treatments, etc.) where the set point has to be reached gradually, in
a predetermined time.
The function is determined by the following parameter :

PV
S
P1 V
a
l
ue
change
SP1
tim e [m in.]
SLor SLor
Example with start from values lower than SP 1 and with
decreasing of SP 1.
P.A.: In case of PID control, if Auto-tuning is desired whilst the
ramp function is active, this will not be carried out until the tuning
cycle has been completed.
It is therefore recommended that Auto-tuning be started avoiding
activating the ramp function and, once the tuning is finished,
deactivate Auto-tuning (“Auto” = OFF) and program the desired
ramp.
4.9 - ALARM OUTPUT FUNCTIONS (AL1)
The AL1 alarm depending on the process value and before to set
his functioning it’s necessary to establish to which output the alarm
has to correspond to.
First of all it’s necessary to configure, in the parameters group
“
]
Out”, the parameters relative to the outputs required as alarm
(“O1F” , “O2F”) programming the parameter relative to the desired
output as follows :
= ALno if the alarm output has to be ON when the alarm is active,
while it’s OFF when the alarm is not active
= ALnc if the alarm output has to be ON when the alarm is not
active, while it’s OFF when the alarm is active
= ALni if the alarm output has to be ON when the alarm is not
active, while it is OFF when the alarm is active but with reverse led
indication (led ON= alarm OFF).
Have now access at the group “
]
AL1”, and program on par.
“OAL1” , to which output the alarm signal has to be sent.
The alarm functioning is instead defined by parameters :
"AL1t " – ALARM TYPE
“AL1” – ALARM THRESHOLD
“AL1L” – LOW ALARM THRESHOLD (for band alarm) OR
MINIMUM SET OF AL1 ALARM THRESHOLD (for low or high
alarm)
“AL1H” - HIGH ALARM THRESHOLD (for band alarm) OR
MAXIMUM SET OF AL1 ALARM THRESHOLD (for low or high
alarm)
“HAL1” - ALARM HYSTERESIS
“AL1d” – ALARM ACTIVATION DELAY (in sec.)
"AL1i" – ALARM BEHAVIOUR IN THE EVENT OF
MEASUREMENT ERROR
"AL1t" – ALARM TYPE :the alarm output can behave in six
different ways.
LoAb = ABSOLUTE LOW ALARM: The alarm is activated when the
process value goes below the alarm threshold set on parameter
"AL1” and will be deactivated when it goes above the value
[AL1+HAL1].
With this mode is possible to program the minimum and the
maximum set of “AL1” by “AL1L” and “AL1H” parameters.
HiAb = ABSOLUTE HIGH ALARM: The alarm is activated when the
process value goes higher than the alarm threshold set on
parameter "AL1" and will be deactivated when it goes below the
value [AL1 - HAL1].
With this mode is possible to program the minimum and the
maximum set of “AL1” by “AL1L” and “AL1H” parameters.

counting begins, as programmed on par. “AL1d” (expressed in
TECNOLOGIC spa - TLK 48 B - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - Vr. 03 - 12/04 - ISTR 06877 - PAG. 6

sec.) and the alarm will be activated only after the elapsing of that
time.
"AL1i" - ALARM ACTIVATION IN CASE OF MEASUREMENT
ERROR:This allows one to establish how the alarm have behave
in the event of a measurement error (yES=alarm active; no=alarm
deactivated).
4.10 - PARAMETERS CONFIGURATION BY “KEY01”
The instrument is equipped with a connector that allows the trans-
fer from and toward the instrument of the functioning parameters
through the device TECNOLOGIC KEY01 with 3 poles connector.
This device it’s mainly useable for the serial programming of the
instruments which need to have the same parameters configuration
or to keep a copy of the programming of an instrument and allow its
rapid retransmission.
To use the device KEY01 it’s necessary that both device and
instrument are being supplied.
SUPPLY ADAPTER
12 VDC AC SUPPLY
SUPPLY
To transfer the configuration of an instrument into the device
(UPLOAD) it is necessary to proceed in the following way:
1) position both dip switch of KEY 01 in the OFF mode.
2) connect the device to the instrument TLK plugging the special
connector.
3) verify that the instrument and the device are supplied
4) observe the indication led on the device KEY 01: if it results
green this means that a configuration is already loaded on the
device while if it results green blinking or red blinking this means
that it has not been loaded any valid configuration on the device .
5) press the button placed on the device.
6) observe the indication led : after having pressed the button, the
led becomes red and therefore, at the end of the data transfer, it
becomes green.
7) now it is possible to disconnect the device.
To transfer the configuration loaded on the device onto an
instrument of the same family (DOWNLOAD), it is necessary to
proceed in the following way:
1) position both dip switch of KEY 01 in the ON mode.
2) connect the device to an instrument TLK having the same
features of the one from which has been downloaded the desired
configuration, plugging the special connector.
3) verify that the instrument and the device are supplied
4) observe the indication led on the device KEY 01: it has to result
green, because if the led results green blinking or red blinking, this
means that on the device it has not been downloaded any valid
configuration and therefore it’s useless to continue.
5) if the les results green, press the button placed on the device.
6) observe the indication led : after having pressed the button, the
led becomes red and therefore, at the end of the data transfer, it
becomes green.
7) now it is possible to disconnect the device.
For additional info, please have a look at the KEY01 instruction
manual.
