Editing the Custom Curve Table
To edit custom table points, click
Edit Table
in the
Custom Curve
tab, then follow the directions below.
1. If you have already written a custom table in
Microsoft
®
Excel (and saved it in a .csv format) or in
our PC Confi guration Software, you can open it from
the
Edit Table
menu. Go to
File
(at the top, left corner
of the screen, on the command bar), and click
Open
,
then select the appropriate fi le.
2. If you have NOT already written a custom table,
begin writing one by clicking the
Edit Table
button and
selecting the number of points you would like to defi ne.
Do this in the
Number of Points
section.
3. Make sure that the
Custom Curve Enabled
box is
checked. If not, check it and click the
Set
button.
4. Fill in the values in the
X
and
Y
columns.
X
is the
input column–it represents the value that is input into
the FDY.
Y
is the output column–it represents the
value (in engineering units) that the transmitter will
output when the value in the
X
column is input. It is
also the value that will be displayed in the PC Software
and on the FDY display. If an input falls in between two
X
values, then the output will be scaled to match the
percentage difference between the two X points.
5. When you have fi lled in all of the custom curve
points, click
Download
. This will download the
information from the PC Confi guration Software to the
transmitter. If you later want to retrieve the fi le from
the transmitter to the PC Confi guration Software, you
can reattach the transmitter and click
Upload
. You are
now done confi guring your custom table, and if you
have made changes to other parts of the confi guration
program, you are ready to download the confi guration
fi le.
Downloading the Confi guration File
After the confi guration has been set to your
satisfaction, it can be downloaded to the unit by
selecting
Download
from the
Transfer Menu
or by
pressing the
Download
button ( ) on the status bar.
Downloading the confi guration displayed in the PC
program overwrites the unit’s current confi guration.
Downloading the confi guration to the FDY may take
up to 30 seconds to complete. It is important to let the
sequence fi nish before taking any other action.
Once completed, the
Device Confi guration
portion of
the screen (in the bottom-left corner) will change to
match the confi guration listed on the rest of the screen.
The status indicator in the top left hand corner of the
view will then indicate the program has reverted back
to its idle mode.
Installing the FDY
Moore Industries suggests installing the FDY by fi rst
mounting the unit in its intended application, then
making the electrical connections to input, output and
power.
Mounting
The FDY is built in a HP housing and can be shipped
with one of our durable fi eld-mount enclosures, such
as the BH or D-BOX. Use the BH for tough, explosion-
proof protection, or the D-BOX for areas where you
need durable, reliable protection for your display.
The FDY is also versatile enough to be mounted on
a surface, relay track, pipe or inside one of our fi eld
enclosures.
Electrical Connections
The connections for the various single FDY inputs are
shown in the following diagram.
CE Conformity
Installation of any Moore Industries’ products that carry
the CE certifi cation (Commission Electrotechnique)
must
adhere to the guidelines in
Installing the FDY
in order to meet the requirements set forth in the
applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility)
directive (EN 61326). Consult the factory for the most
current information on products that have been CE
certifi ed.
