Entek IRD 6666 and 6667 Protection Monitors
Configuration
Configuration
This section describes how you configure the 6666 and 6667. The menu options and
configuration steps are the same for the 6666 and the 6667. The 6660 Series monitors are
easy to configure. All the controls to configure a 6600 monitor are on the front panel of the
monitor. There are no jumpers or DIP switches that you must set to configure the monitor.
The 6666 and 6667 monitors have two levels of configuration:
z
User menu - This menu allows you to set the date and time, set the Alert and Danger
alarm setpoints, and inhibit the Danger alarm relays.
z
Factory menu - This menu allows you to configure all the other parameters, including
MODBUS communications, display units, transducer checks, alarm relay operation,
alarm relay mapping, and number of channels.
Continuous Protection Feature
The 6600 Series protection monitors have a built-in security feature that continues to protect
the machinery even when you are configuring the monitors. Until you exit from the top-
level configuration menu, the monitor continues to use the previous configuration. When
you exit from the top-level menu to return to normal display, the monitor stores the changes
and uses the new configuration.
If the power fails while you are configuring a monitor, the monitor returns to the previous
configuration. After the power is restored, you can reconfigure the monitor.
The monitor stores configuration information in non-volatile memory. Even without power,
the monitor can keep the configuration information safe for at least 5 years.
General Configuration Instructions
All the configuration menus function in the same way. In short, the steps are:
1.
Press and hold two buttons to display the desired menu.
z
For the User menu, press and hold the two Arrow buttons until the menu appears.
z
For the Factory menu, press and hold the Down Arrow and SEL buttons until the
menu appears.
2.
Use the Arrow buttons to highlight the desired option.
3.

monitor stores any changes you make, but does not write them to memory until you exit
the User or Factory menu.
Note: If the current value does not change when you press the Arrow buttons (step 4), the monitor
is protected by the link security feature. Contact your Supervisor for assistance. For more
information on the link security feature, refer to the manual on 6600 monitor installation, or
