Associated Parameter options (bytes 3-14 relate to linking gauges)
4.8.19
Software module 914 - Gauge 2
This module can be used with any TIC version that includes gauge control.
General Description
Control and monitoring of Gauge connected to gauge port number 2.
See Gauge 1 for output, input and parameter options.
4.8.20
Software module 915 - Gauge 3
This module can be used with any TIC version that includes gauge control.
General Description
Control and monitoring of Gauge connected to gauge port number 3.
See Gauge 1 for output, input and parameter options.
4.8.21
Linking Relay set point outputs
The TIC Profibus module can be used to provide relay set point outputs based on gauge pressure, volts, or pump
speed. Further information about relay set point outputs can be read in the TIC instruction manual D397 22 880
Section 4.16. The information below provides details about linking using the TIC Profibus module.
Linking can be set up by parameterisation of the TIC such that the linked items will turn on/off at the specified
pressures, voltages or speeds from a master item.
Controlling item (Master object)
- The item that will control the relay.
Units
- The unit value must be a suitable type for the controlling item or the set-up will be ignored by the TIC i.e.
must use speed for a Turbo pump and must use pressure or volts for a gauge.
