11.3  Description of programmable functions

The following sections contain detailed descrip-
tions of each programmable function.  They should
be read in conjunction with the programme struc-
ture shown in Fig 13.

11.3.1  Alarm enable:  EnbL

This function allows the alarm to be enabled or
disabled  without altering any of the alarm
parameters.  To check or change the function
select 'EnbL' from the alarm sub-menu and press 

P

which will reveal the current setting.  The function
can be changed by pressing the 

Up

 or 

Down

button followed by the 

E

 button to return to the

'EnbL' prompt.

11.3.2  Setpoint adjustment:   SP1 and SP2

The setpoint of each alarm relates to the
transmitter display and each may be independently
positioned anywhere in the transmitter display
range.  When positioned close to the display limits,
care should be taken to ensure that hysteresis
does not place the alarm beyond the display limits.

To adjust the setpoint select 'SP1' or 'SP2' from
the alarm sub-menu and press 

P

  which will reveal

the existing alarm setpoint.  Each digit of the
setpoint can be adjusted using the 

Up

 and 

Down

push-buttons, and the 

P

 button to move to the next

digit.  When the required setpoint has been
entered press 

 to return the setpoint prompt

'SP1' or 'SP2'.

11.3.3  Alarm function:   HI.LO

Each alarm can be conditioned as a high or low
alarm.   To check or change the alarm function
select 'HI.LO' from the alarm sub-menu and press

P

 to reveal the current setting.  The function can

be changed by pressing the 

Up

 or 

Down

 buttons

followed by the 

E

 button to return the 'HI.LO'

prompt.

11.3.4  Alarm output status:   no.nc

This function allows the alarm output to be open or
to be closed in the alarm condition.  When
deciding which is required, care must be taken to
ensure that the alarm output is fail safe.   
See Fig 13.

WARNING

!

When the transmitter supply is
removed both alarm outputs will
open irrespective of conditioning.
Therefore for fail safe operation both
alarm outputs should be
programmed to be open in the alarm
condition.

To check or change the alarm output status select
'no.nc' from the alarm sub-menu and press 

P

reveal the current setting.  The function can be
changed by pressing the 

Up

 or 

Down

 button

followed by the 

E

 button to return the 'no.nc''

prompt.

11.3.5  Hysteresis:   HStr

To adjust the hysteresis select 'HStr' from the
alarm sub-menu and press 

P

 which will reveal the

existing figure.  Each digit can be adjusted using
the 

Up

 and 

Down

 push-buttons, and the 

P

 button

to move to the next digit.  When the required
hystersis has been entered press 

to return the

'HStr' prompt.
e.g.  A transmitter with a high alarm set at 240 and
hysteresis of 10 will perform as follows:

High alarm will be activated when display
equals or exceeds 240, but will not reset until
the display falls below 230.

11.3.6  Alarm delay:   dELA

This function enables activation of the alarm
output to be delayed for a fixed time following the
alarm condition occurring.  The delay can be
programmed in 1 second increments up to 3600
seconds.  If a delay is not required zero should be
entered.  To adjust the delay select 'dELA' from the
alarm sub-menu and press 

P

 which will reveal the

existing delay.  Each digit of the delay can be
adjusted using the 

Up

 and 

Down

 push-buttons, and

the 

P

  button to move to the next digit.  When the

required delay has been entered press 

to return

the 'dELA' prompt.

11.3.7  Alarm silence time:   SIL

This function is primarily intended for use in small
installations where the alarm output directly
operates an annunciator such as a sounder.  When
the alarm silence time is set to any figure other
than zero, the 

P

 push-button becomes an alarm

accept button.   After an alarm has occurred,
operating the 

P

  button will cause the alarm output

to revert to the non-alarm condition for the
programmed alarm silence time.  The display will
continue to indicate an alarm after it has been
accepted and silenced.   The alarm silence time
may be adjusted between 0 and 3600 seconds in 1
second increments.

To adjust the alarm silence time select 'SIL' from
the alarm sub-menu and press 

P

  which will reveal

the existing time.  Each digit can be adjusted using
the 

Up

 and 

Down

 push-buttons, and the 

P

  button

to move to the next digit.  When the required time
has been entered press 

to return the 'SIL'

prompt.
