3.7.8  Power-On Time 

Gas sensors need a running-in period, until the chemical process of the sensor reaches stable conditions. During 

this running-in period the current signal can lead to an unwanted releasing of a pseudo alarm. Therefore the power 

on time is started at the Gas Controller module after having switched on the power supply. While this time is 

running out, the Gas Controller does not activate any alarms. The power on status occurs in the starting menu.

3.7.9  Registration of Extension Modules 

The DGC3 can manage up to two expansion modules EP-05 with five alarm relays each. Each attached EP-05 is 

registered in this menu. The controller checks the communication to the registered EP-05 modules and shows a 

fault signal in case of a communication error. In order to recognize the position of the EP-05 modules, a module 

address is assigned to each module by the address selector. See table.  
The table shows the assignment of the relay numbers to the individual modules.

3.7.10  Error Indicator System Bus 

All data packets received by the DGC3 are checked for completeness and compatibility. Faulty data packets are 

recorded by the error counter. Max. 1-2 faulty data packets are admissible a day. 
A higher error rate mostly comes from incorrect placement of the field bus line.
