5X00 instrument run screen when IOEM input value is invalid
Configure sensor system as a 4/20mA output
5X00 sensor systems input values (DO %sat, DO mg/l, aux and E-aux) can be
converted to a 4/20mA output signal that can be sent to an external device, such
as a PLC. This is done by wiring and configuring an IOEM channel as a 4/20mA
output. Please see IOEM/REM Safety and Installation Guide for wiring and hard-
ware configuration information. AquaManager must be used to configure a sensor
system as a 4/20mA output. While the 4/20mA output menus can be viewed at the
instrument, entering a specific menu results with an information window stating
“4-20mA out can only be changed in AquaManager”.
4/20mA menu configuration information is provided at AquaManager Help. See
AquaManager Help contents>working with nodes>expansion modules>ioem ex-
pansion module>configure ioem 4mA-20mA output to a 5X00 system bookmark.
Configure 4/20mA outputs at sensor system tabs in AquaManager. 4/20mA con-
figuration fields are located at the bottom of all sensor system tabs.
AquaManager and the Sensor Setup Menu
All Sensor Setup menus can be configured using AquaManager. After polling the
5200A node, use “Systems Management” to view and upload 5200A configuration.
Notes
-
Always manually poll the 5200A after uploading configuration changes and
verify that the uploaded information is retained. When configuration changes
are uploaded using AquaManager at the same time configuration changes are
being made by a user in the menus on the 5200A, AquaManager uploads may
not be saved depending on the timing of keystrokes at the 5200A.
-
The Run Screen must be displayed during normal operation.
If the 5200A
is not at the run screen during AquaManager uploading, pressing
at
the 5200A will only save certain configuration changes.
See Chapter 5 AquaManager - page 198 and AquaManager online help for ad-
ditional information.
