BARGRAPH COLOR

PROGRAMMING MODE

See Page 9

Tricolor Bargraph

The tri-color bargraph is designed like a

traffic light, to display either red, orange or

green, but only one color at a time.The color

to be displayed is selected in two ways.

The first step is to select the color to be

displayed when the bar is“below”whichever

set point is set to the lowest position.

The second step is to select the color to be

displayed when the bar is above each

specific setpoint, regardless of the order or

position to which the set points are set.

However, if two or more setpoints with

differently specified colors are positioned at

the same set point value, the color specified

for the set point with the highest identifying

number will be displayed.When setpoints are

set to the same value, the SP4 color

overrides the SP3 color, the SP3 color

overrides the SP2 color, and the SP2 color

overrides the SP1 color.

Hysteresis [hYSt]

When hYSt is selected ON, and SP2 is set at a value

higher than SP1, the SP1 relay will operate in a special

"pump on pump off" Hysteresis mode. SP2 acts as the

upper limit and SP1 acts as the lower limit of the

Hysteresis Band.

For filling applications, rLYS should be set to LhLh. SP1

will then activate for inputs less than the SP1 setpoint, and

remain ON until the SP2 setpoint is reached.

For emptying applications, rLYS should be set to hhhh.

SP1 will then activate for inputs greater than the SP2

setpoint, and remain ON until the SP1 setpoint is reached.

bration.

2) Press the button. Display toggles between [ZEro] and the pre-

vious zero setting.

STEP C Set the Meter’s Low Input Signal Reading on the Digital Display

1) Apply a zero or low signal to the meter. (Positive or negative val-

ues are allowed).

2) Using the and buttons, adjust the meter display to the

desired reading for the applied low input signal.

3) Press the button.Display toggles between [SPAn] and the pre-

vious span setting.

STEP D Set the Meter’s High Input Signal Reading on the Digital Display

1) Apply a high input signal to the meter.

2) Using the and buttons, adjust the digital display to the

desired reading for the applied high input signal.

3) Press the button.

The Digital Calibration Procedure is now complete.

If the digital calibration was successfully completed, the menu branches to

the Digital Span Selection for Bargraph Display (see page 5), and the dis-

play flashes [bhi] and the previous setting.

ERROR Indicates Unsuccessful Calibration

If the calibration was unsuccessful, the display indicates [Err], the new

calibration settings just entered will not take effect and the previously

stored setting will remain.

The three most likely causes of an error dur-

ing calibration are:

The full scale and zero signals were too similar.The full scale signal must be

at least 1000 counts greater than the zero or low input signal (positive and

negative values are allowed).

2. The scaling requirement exceeded the digital display span capability

of the meter (12,000 counts between –1999 to 9999).

3. No input signal present, or incorrect input signal connections.

This mode enables the meter to be calibrated by applying a zero or low input signal, entering the desired reading for that signal, then

applying a high input signal, and then entering the desired reading for that signal. The meter then automatically calculates and pro-

grams in the requisite scale factor, within the following parameters.

1. Positive and negative signals may be applied, but the difference between the low and the high signal inputs must be at least 1000

counts or Err will be indicated.

2. Positive and Negative values for the desired reading can be entered, but the scale factor created can not exceed the Digital Display

Span capability of the meter which is 12,000 counts between –1999 to 9999.

3. The internal Signal Span is limited to 3 V DC between –1 V DC to + 2 V DC. Any outputs from an Input Signal Conditioning mod-

ule that exceed these limits will cause the meter to indicate overrange regard-

less of the Digital Display Span scaled.

Note: Many input signal conditioners have provisions for analog calibration and

scaling.If the meter is digitally set to read zero with a zero input (shorted input),

and to read 1000 with a 1.000 V input, any pre-calibrated analog signal condi-

tioner, with an output that does not exceed –1V to + 2V, will read correctly with-

out any further calibration when it is inserted in the meter.

Example of Setting the Digital Span of the Bargraph Display

to be Different than the Digital Display Range

The bargraph can be set to display full scale (0-101 bars) any portion of the

digital reading from a minimum of 100 counts to a maximum of 12,000

counts.This provides higher resolution bargraph indication for those appli-

cations where the normal operating input signal range is less than the

desired full scale display range of the digital display.

For Example:

If the full scale range of the meter has been set from -1999 to

9999 (0-12,000 counts), but the normal operating range of the

input signal is between 4000 & 6000.The bargraph high parame-

ter [bhi] can be set to 6000 and the bargraph low parameter [bLo]

can be set to 4000.

This means that although the meter could digitally display a signal

from -1999 to 9999 (0-12,000 counts), the bargraph display only

begins to function at a reading of 4000, and reaches full scale indi-

cation at a reading of 6000. Although the digital display will con-

tinue reading up to 9999 before indicating overrange, the bargraph

display will indicate its overrange by flashing for readings above

6000.

Example of Using the Center Point Bargraph Display Mode

with a Unipolar Input

If the meter's full scale range is set to 5000 counts, the midpoint would be

2500 counts. If a signal of 2500 counts is applied only one segment at the

2500 count mark will light up. If a signal of 4000 counts is applied the seg-

ments between the center segment (2500 counts) and the 4000 count mark

light up.

If a signal of 1000 counts is applied, the segments between the center seg-

ment (2500 counts) and the 1000 count mark will light up.

Example of Using the Center Point Bargraph Display Mode

with Bipolar Signal Inputs

The meter may also be calibrated to display symmetrical bipolar signals such

as ± 1V or ± 10V.When the center point display mode is selected, it will then

function as a center zero meter. When positive signals are applied, the bar

will go up from the center point, and when negative signals are applied, the

bar will go down from the center point.

STEP E Selecting the [Anhi] Digital Value for Analog High Output

1) Using the and buttons, adjust the display to the desired digital

value at which the [chi] Calibrated Analog High output will occur. For

digital readings outside the digital span selected, the analog output

will linearly rise above the value set for chi, up to the maximum

analog output capability. However, the analog output will not go

lower than the calibrated value set for cLo (see below).

2) Press the button.

Display toggles between [AnLo] and previous

[AnLo] setting.

STEP F Selecting the [AnLo] Digital Value for Analog Low Output

1) Using the and buttons, adjust the display to the desired

digital value at which the [cLo] Calibrated Analog Low output will

occur.

For Digital readings outside the Digital Span selected, the

analog output will not go lower than the calibrated value set for cLo

2) Press the button.

The display toggles between [cto] and

[oFF].

Note: Any two digital span points from –1999 to 9999 can be selected.The digital val-

ues for [Anhi] analog high and [AnLo] analog low can be reversed to provide a 20 to

4mA output.The digital span selected can be as small as two counts, when using the

analog output to function as a Control or Alarm Driver. Small digital spans will cause

the high resolution 16 bit D to A to increment digitally in stair case steps.

module to adjust the mA or Volts output selection header and reinstalling it. When

power is reconnected, the meter’s software will automatically detect the presence

or absence of the analog output module.

STEP A Enter the Calibration Mode

Press the and buttons at the same time. Display toggles

between [cAL] and [oFF].

2) Press the or button. Display changes from [oFF] to [on].

Press the button. Display tog-

gles between [cAL] and [out] input calibration.

Note: If at this point the display skips directly to toggle between Zero and the pre-

vious Zero setting, the software is detecting that the optional analog output hard-

ware is NOT installed.

STEP B Enter the Two Point Analog [ouT] Output Range Setting and

Calibration Mode

Press the button. Display toggles between [cLo] and an internal

scale factor.

STEP E Set or Calibrate [cLo] the Low Analog Value of the Analog

Output Range

Connect a multimeter to analog output pins 17 and 18 (see Rear

Panel Pinouts on page 10). Using the and buttons, adjust the ana-

log output to the desired low value as measured on the multimeter. cLo

may be adjusted to any value from –0.3 mA to 18 mA (mA output select-

ed) or from –0.6 V to 8 V (volt output selected). However, the output of

cLo must always be less than the value selected for chi. If a reversed

analog output is desired, the values selected to establish the Digital Span

can be reversed (see top of page 6). For digital readings outside the

Digital Span selected, the analog output will not go any lower than the

calibrated value set for cLo. However, the analog output will linearly rise

above the value set for chi, up to the the maximum analog output capa-

bility (see chi below).

Press the button. Display toggles between [chi] and an internal

scale factor.

STEP F Set or Calibrate [chi] the High Analog Value of the Analog

Output Range

1) Using the and buttons, adjust the analog output to the

desired high value as measured on the multimeter display. chi may

be adjusted to any value from 18 mA to 24 mA (mA output) or from

8 V to 10.3 V (volt output). However, the value must be higher than

the value selected for cLo. For digital readings outside the Digital

Span selected, the analog output will linearly rise above the value set

for chi, up to the maximum analog output capability.

2) Press the button. The meter exits the calibration mode and

returns to the operational display.

Note: The analog output range established by the values selected for cLo and

chi will occur, automatically scaled, between the two digital values selected for

AnHi and AnLo. However, the analog output can linearly rise above the chi

value set for digital readings outside the digital span selected. See Digital Span

Selection on page 6.

Configuration Page 9

The following programming steps are required to enter the setpoint values and configure the relay functions in

a meter with four relays using four setpoints. Generally if less than four relays are installed, the setpoints with-

out relays are operational in software for tri-color control or display only purposes. To remove unwanted set-

point indications, set them to 9999 or -1999 depending on the relay activation mode selected.

STEP A Enter the Setpoint Mode

1) Press the and buttons at the same time.Display toggles between [SP1] and the previous

SP1 setting.

STEP B Set Setpoint 1 [SP1]

1) Using the and buttons, adjust the display to the desired SP1 value.

2) Press the button. Display toggles between [doM] and the previous [doM] setting.

STEP C Set the SP1 Delay-on-Make [doM] DelayTime Setting

Using the and buttons, adjust the display to the desired [doM] value (0 to 9999 seconds).

The reading must continuously remain in an alarm condition until this delay time has elapsed before

the relay will make contact (energize).

2) Press the button. Display toggles between [dob] and the previous [dob] setting.

STEP D Set the SP1 Delay-on-Break [dob] DelayTime Setting

Using the and buttons, adjust the display to the desired [dob] value (0 to 9999 seconds).

The reading must continuously remain in a non-alarm condition until this delay time has elapsed

before the relay will break contact (de-energize).

2) Press the button. Display toggles between [hYSt] and the previous [hYSt] setting.

STEP E Select the Hysteresis [hYSt]

Using the and buttons, select the Hysteresis to be ON or OFF.

2) Press the button. Display toggles between PUM and (on) or (oFF).

STEP F Select Pump [PUM] (on) or (oFF)

Using the and buttons, select the Pump to be ON or OFF. When PUM is selected ON, and

SP2 is set at a value higher than SP1, the SP1 relay will operate in a special "pump on pump off" mode.

SP2 acts as the upper limit and SP1 acts as the lower limit of the Hysteresis Band on the SP1 relay.

For filling applications:

[rLYS] should be set to [LhXX] (see step M). The SP1 relay and SP1 LED Annunciator will then activate for inputs

less than the SP1 setpoint, and remain ON until the SP2 setpoint is reached.

For emptying applications:

[rLYS] should be set to [hhXX] (see step M). The SP1 relay and SP1 LED Annunciator will then activate for inputs

greater than the SP2 setpoint, and remain ON until the SP1 setpoint is reached.

2) Press the button. Display toggles between [SP2] and the previous SP2 setting.

STEP G Set Setpoint 2 (SP2)

1) Using the and buttons, adjust the display to the desired SP2 value.

To comply with the latest safety requirements, the tri-color bargraph is designed like a traffic light, to

display either red, orange or green, but only one color at a time. When the bar reaches a selected color

change point, the entire bar will change to the color designated for that zone. This eliminates any

ambiguity as to the signal status, especially just after transitioning to a new zone.

First (Step Q) is to select the color to be displayed, when the bar is “below*”, whichever set point is set

to the lowest position.

Second (Steps R, S, T, and U) is to select the color to be displayed when the bar is above each specific

set point, regardless of the order or position to which the set points are set.

However, if two or more setpoints with differently specified colors are positioned at the same set point

value, the color specified for the set point with the highest identifying number will be displayed.When set

points are set to the same value, the SP4 color overrides the SP3 color, the SP3 color overrides the SP2

color, and the SP2 color overrides the SP1 color.

STEP Q Select Bargraph Color when the bar is BELOW* the Setpoint that is set to the lowest position
