8.0 CONFIGURATION
8.1 Parameters
The UPR800 parameters are grouped in five sections guarded by three security levels.
The more common parameters are in the first groups, with the higher Group numbers for
those parameters an operator would not normally modify. Each group can be reset to its
default value by two keystrokes. This also resets the parameters of any lower numbered
group to default. If GROUP 5 is set to default, the entire instrument is reset to its default
parameters. If a unit does not have a particular option, its parameters will not appear.
For example, an instrument that does not have RS-485 communications will skip those
parameters related to communications. Likewise, if a particular function is turned off, its
other parameters will not appear. For example, if Alarm 2 is turned to
OFF
in Group 3, the
hysteresis, reset, filter, type, and threshold functions will not appear on screen. Nor will
the alarm appear on the bar graph display.
When the instrument is turned on, it will go through a self-test during which the front panel
will illuminate. The instrument will then be in the normal display mode showing the value
of the main input on the upper display, and the value of the secondary input on the lower
display (if so equipped). If there is no secondary input, the lower display will show the
maximum peak value of the main input. In the event that no input device is connected,
both displays will show
OPEn
. If no secondary input is present, the lower display will
show
OPEn
indicating that the unit failed to full scale, the bar graph display will be at
100% with the last segment flashing. Turn the power to the instrument off and connect an
input device to the appropriate terminals, and connect a thermocouple or appropriate
signal source to the secondary input terminals (if supplied). Upon turning the instrument
back on, the displays should have a numeric value, close to zero pressure on the
pressure display, and near room temperature on the thermocouple display. Depressing
FUNC
will go automatically into the GROUP 1 parameters.
Successively pressing
FUNC
will scroll through all the parameters of GROUP 1. The last
two parameters of each group allow the default parameters to be restored, and returns to
GROUP
. If
nonE
is chosen in the group access function, the instrument will return to
normal operating mode after pressing of the
FUNC
key.
When in GROUP 1, if no keyboard activity is detected for approximately 10 seconds, the
instrument will automatically return to the normal display mode.
8.2 Parameter Configuration Procedures
The parameters in the five groups are extensive, and not all parameters need to be
addressed. While they are fully explained in the following section, it would be well to
review them prior to configuring the instrument in your application. It is entirely possible
that only a minimum number of parameters need to be adjusted to have your process
operating satisfactorily. Please note that at any time, the default parameters may be
reset to the factory settings. Each parameter group can be reset at any time, (which also
resets the levels with numbers higher than the selected group). To set a default level,
press the
FUNC
key until
DEFLT
shows on the lower display and
OFF
shows on the
