Winland EnviroAlert EA200 Operating instructions

Winland_Cover.fm Page 1 Wednesday, July 5, 2006 1:39 PM

Limitations of the Alarm System or Device
While your alarm system or device is reliable and sophisticated, it does not offer guaranteed protection against
burglary, fire, or other emergency. Any security product, whether commercial or residential, is subject to
compromise or failure-to-warn for a variety of reasons. These include:
•Individuals may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass
an alarm sensor or disconnect an alarm warning device.
•Monitoring devices will not operate without power. Devices powered by AC will not work if their AC power
supply is off for any reason. If the system has battery back-up, batteries that are not maintained can fail to
provide the necessary power for devices to function properly.
•Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells, and horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are
located on the other side of closed or partly closed doors. If warning devices are on a different level of the
residence from the bedrooms, they are less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms.
•Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from the premises to a central monitoring station may be
out of service and are subject to compromise by sophisticated means of attack.
•Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm
receiver. Even if the signal path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a
metal object if moved into the path.
•Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended and is a monitored alarm system, the
authorities may not respond appropriately.
•This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is
designed to last as long as 20 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.
•The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning properly is due to inadequate maintenance.
Your alarm system should be tested weekly to make sure all detection devices are operating properly. Your
control panel and keypads should be tested, as well.
Installing an alarm system may make you eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a
substitute for insurance. Homeowners, property owners, and renters should continue to insure their lives and
property.

General Information
The EnviroAlert®EA200 andEA400 provide alarm signals when monitoredconditions
exceed the user-programmable HIGH LIMIT or LOW LIMIT set points. The alarm
signals areprovided via relay outputsthatcan operate with alarm panels, process
controls, security systems, or other similar automated equipment.
All setup is doneusing the front panel keys and the LCD display, which uses iconsthat
indicate the setup and parameter being configured. The LCD display assists the user
during setup, and shows measured conditions for the monitored critical environment.
The EA200and EA400 can monitor multiple critical environmentsusing multiplesensor
inputs, with each sensor input/alarm channel designated asa “Zone”. The EA200 and
EA400differ primarily in the numberof Zones that can be monitored.

Using the appropriate accessory sensors (not supplied), the EA200 / EA400 monitors
and provides alarms for the following environmental conditions:
Temperature: from –50° C to 150° C (–58° F to 299° F)
Humidity: from 5% to 95% RH
Presence of water
The EA200 / EA400 is easily mounted directly to a 2-gang electrical enclosure, or to
walls.

EnviroAlert EA200
Figure 2 shows a simplified functional diagram of the EA200 interfaces and functions.
The EA200 provides two Zones of monitoring as follows:
Zone 1 – Zone 1 is permanently programmed as a temperature monitor using a
temperature sensor built-in to the EA200.
Zone 2 – Zone 2 is equipped with a sensor input connector that can be connected to
any one of a variety of sensors. Using the appropriate sensor, Zone 2 can be used
to monitor temperature, humidity, or presence of water at remote locations.
Each Zone has its own Form C relay output that activates when a monitored
environmental condition exceeds the programmed range. An AUX (Auxiliary) Output
relay is activated whenever any Zone is in alarm. It can be used to provide a single
output to the alarm panel or to an optional audible alarm.

EnviroAlert EA400
Figure 3 shows a simplified functional diagram of the EA400 interfaces and functions.
The EA400 provides four Zones of monitoring as follows:
Zones 1 through 4 – Each Zone is equipped with a sensor input connector that can
be connected to any one of a variety of sensors (the EA400 is not equipped with a
built-in sensor). Using the appropriate external sensor, each Zone can be used to
monitor temperature, humidity, or presence of water. Programming and usage of
each Zone is fully independent of each other.
Each Zone has its own Form C relay output that activates when a monitored
environmental condition exceeds the programmed range. An AUX (Auxiliary) Output
relay is activated whenever any Zone is in alarm. It can be used to provide a single
output to the alarm panel or to an optional audible alarm.

Limit display.
Shows the programmed HIGH limit and LOW limit points where measured con-
ditions exceeding limits will trigger an alarm for the related Zone.
• When programmed for temperature, the limit range allowed is between 299
degree units to –58 degree units.
• When programmed for humidity, the limit range allowed is between 100
RH% units to 0 RH% units.

Locked and Unlocked icons.
Indicates EA200 / EA400 lock status.
When EA200 / EA400 is in locked mode, programming cannot be changed; no
configuration modes are accessible.
10
Alarm icon.
When flashing, indicates that a Zone is in an alarm state. When steadily illumi-
nated, indicates that an alarm condition exists, but the programmed time delay
interval has not yet elapsed. When time delay period elapses, the icon will begin
flashing.
11
Delay Time Entry Mode icon.
During programming, indicates selection of delay time mode (up to 120 minutes
delay can be entered). When icon appears, a delay time (in minutes) can be
entered. With a delay programmed for the Zone, conditions exceeding the pro-
grammed limits (such as during a defrost cycle) are ignored for the duration of
the programmed delay.
This function is typically used to prevent false alarms for freezers and coolers
that have defrost cycles or doors that are opened frequently.
