Configuration of “Run Signal”
Using the arrows on the keypad, select the “Run Signal” icon.
There are (3) run types available. The definitions are as follows:
None:
No run indication required. Monitoring is always active.
RPM:
Monitoring is active when signal received from magnetic pickup.
Digital:
Monitoring is active when contact closure (connection to ground) is sensed.
To select run signal type, use the up / down arrows to select, then press the right
arrow.
If
“None”
is selected, there is no other action required other than to select “escape.” After
selecting escape, you will be asked to select “yes” to save.
If
“RPM”
is selected, you will need to set the # gear teeth, RPM threshold and startup delay.
The RPM threshold is the speed above which monitoring will be active. The startup delay
allows you to delay monitoring for as many as 300 seconds (5 minutes) to allow time for all
inputs to be at normal levels. If no delay is required, set to 0 seconds. The magnetic pickup
should be connected to input terminals (A) and (1). See page 4 for connections.
If
“Digital”
is selected, you will only need to set the startup delay (if applicable). In this mode,
a run signal will be sensed with a contact closure (or short) between terminals (A) and (1).
Pressing
at any time during configuration will prompt you to save the changes.
Select “Yes” to save any changes made. Selecting “No” will not save changes.
Configuration of each “Channel”
Using the arrows on the keypad, select the “Channel” icon.
Next, select the channel number to configure by pressing the up / down arrows and press the
right
arrow. Use the right
arrow to navigate and select the following:
