The fifth alarm (the “System Fault Alarm”) is configured to transmit an alarm whenever an Error is detected in
the Analyzer.
All of the alarms can be wired in both Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) configurations.
Installing the Ethernet Connection
The Ethernet connection provides an additional means of capturing data from the Analyzer. Using Modbus,
commands may be issued to the Analyzer as well as collecting data. Refer to
“Using the Ethernet Connection
for details on the use of Modbus.
The Ethernet cable may be connected directly to a computer if a cross-over cable is used (
). Or, as shown in
, a straight-through Ethernet cable is used to connect
to a network. Cables are provided with the Analyzer.
