Display to Controller Data Transfer
Parameter changes made in the display are actually communicated to the Centurion controller where the logic
resides. No changes made through the display affect the display configuration as the display merely reads from
and writes to the Centurion main I/O module. As such, the display can write numeric parameters to the controller.

Centurion Configuration Tool Software
The Centurion Configuration Tool software generates and modifies the properties of the system specific to the
hardware connected to the controller, the sequence of operation, defined setpoints, timers, faults and displays* for
the Centurion system. The software includes file transfer utilities for configuration and firmware upgrades.

Glossary
Analog Input
Terminals 18 to 29 are analog inputs on the Centurion Main I/O module. Accepts
voltage signals within the range of (0 to 5) VDC or (0 to 24) mA and are compared to
controller setpoints and/or displayed.
Boot Loader
Means by which the Centurion controller communicates with Centurion Configuration
Tool to transfer new or updated configurations and firmware and ensures data and
configuration synchronization.
Controller Setpoints
User defines normal operating range for the controller to optimize the equipment.
Setpoints can also define some other threshold, exception or event that may require
action. Multiple setpoints are often applied to a process, and they may be
manipulated as needed to meet changing conditions.
DeadBand
The user set range at which input may fluctuate without the controller taking any
action. The range may be fixed or variable.
Digital Input
Terminals 30 to 61 are the digital input channels, activated by either a ground or
supply voltage level. User selects whether digital input is normally open (N/O) or
normally closed (N/C). Users may also associate these inputs with transition times
for indicating no-flow conditions on divider blocks.
Event
Defines the action required by the controller in response to any number of
parameters. Event actions range from simple alarm message to emergency
shutdown (ESD).
