NO FUNCTION

With this selection, NO function is performed. This is the factory setting for

all user inputs and function keys except the Reset (

RST

) Key.

PROGRAMMING MODE LOCK-OUT

Programming Mode is locked-out, as long as activated (maintained action).

In  Module  3,  certain  parameters  can  be  setup  where  they  are  still  accessible
during  Programming  Mode  Lock-out.  A  security  code  can  be  configured  to
allow complete programming access during User Input lock-out. This parameter
does not apply to the function keys. Program only one user input for this function.

EXCHANGE PARAMETER LISTS

Two lists of parameter entries are available for the Timer/Counter Start and

Stop Values; Setpoint On/Off and Time-Out Values; and Setpoint Daily On/Off
Occurrence (for Real-Time Clock option). The two lists are named 

and

$

. If a User Input is used to select the list, then 

is selected when

the  User  Input  is  in  the  inactive  state  and 

$

is  selected  when  the  User

Input is in the active state (maintained action). If a front panel Function Key is
used to select the list, then the list will toggle for each key press (momentary
action).  The  display  will  only  indicate  which  list  is  active  when  the  list  is
changed or when entering any Programming Mode.

To  program  the  values  for 

and 

$

,  first  complete  the

programming of all the parameters. Exit programming and switch to the other
list. Re-enter programming and enter the Timer/Counter Start and Stop Values
(

), and if applicable, the Setpoint On/Off and

Time-Out Values (

). If any

other  parameters  are  changed,  the  other  list  values  must  be  reprogrammed.
Program only one user input for this function.

Note

: When downloading an SFPAX program containing List A/B, make sure

that both the software and meter have the same list active. The active list in
an SFPAX program is the one being displayed in Input Setup and/or Setpoint

PARAMETER MENU

Module 2 is the programming module for the rear terminal User Inputs and

front panel Function Keys.

Three  rear  terminal  User  Inputs  are  individually  programmable  to  perform

specific  meter  control  functions.  While  in  the  Display  Mode,  the  function  is
executed when the User Input transitions to the active state. Refer to the User
Input specifications for active state response times. Certain User Input functions
are disabled in “Full” Programming Mode. User Inputs should be programmed
while in the inactive state.

Three  front  panel  Function  Keys, 

F1

F2

and 

RST

,  are  also  individually

programmable to perform specific meter control functions. While in the Display
Mode, the primary function is executed when the key is pressed. Holding the

F1

or 

F2

Function Keys for three seconds executes a secondary function. It is

possible to program a secondary function without a primary function. The front
panel key functions are disabled in both Programming Modes.

In  most  cases,  if  more  than  one  User  Input  and/or  Function  Key  is

programmed for the same function, the maintained (level active) functions will
be  performed  while  at  least  one  of  those  User  Inputs  or  Function  Keys  are
activated. The momentary (edge triggered) functions are performed every time
any of those User Inputs or Function Keys transition to the active state.

Some  functions  have  a  sublist  of  parameters,  which  appears  when 

PAR

is

pressed  at  the  listed  function.  A  sublist  provides  yes/no  selection  for  Display
Values  or  Setpoints  which  pertain  to  the  programmed  function.  The  function
will only be performed on the parameters entered as 

in the sublist. If a User

Input  or  Function  Key  is  configured  for  a  function  with  a  sublist,  then  that
sublist  will  need  to  be  scrolled  through  each  time,  in  order  to  access  any
parameters for the User Inputs or Function Keys which follow.

FLASH TIMER ANNUNCIATOR

This parameter allows the Timer annunciator (TMR) to flash when the Timer

is running or stopped/inhibited. Select 

 

if a flashing indicator is not desired.

TIMER INPUT STATE AT POWER-UP

Determines the “Run/Stop” State of the Timer at Power-up. This parameter

does not apply to 

timer input operation.

- Timer Stopped at power-up, regardless of prior run/stop state

- Timer assumes the same run/stop state it was in prior to power-down

TIMER RESET AT POWER-UP

The Timer can be programmed to Reset at each meter power-up.
