4 • CONFIGURATION / PROGRAMMING
This section contains the instructions needed to confi-
gure the instrument 2400 as required.
To provide optimum functioning in its intended application, the
instrument 2400 control parameters have to be correctly confi-
gured and programmed.
The flexibility and high performance of these instruments is
based on numerous parameters that the user can program
directly via the control panel buttons, or transfer from PC in the
form of configuration file via the optional RS485 interface.
Configuration
Access to all configuration / programming menus and to all
parameters available means that the Controller can be configu-
red extremely precisely to satisfy any applicative requirement.
The correct setting of configuration parameters
assumes expertise in control problems and techni-
ques. Therefore, do not change these parameters if
you are not fully aware of the consequences that may
derive from improper setting.
To prevent harm to persons or property, the user is
responsible for checking that all parameters are
correctly set before the instrument is put into ope-
ration.
If you have any doubts or need any explanation, con-
sult the website www.gefran.com or call Gefran
Customer Care.
The following pages describe each of the instrument 2400
menus and, for each parameter, provide a concise description
of its function, its default value (if any), and its range of settable
values.
Supplemental Notes for Consultation of Configuration/Pro-
gramming Pages
When setting a few highly complex parameters, you need to
consult certain tables or detailed notes.
These tables or notes are found on the right side of the page
for the parameter in question.
Applicative Notes
Detailed explanations of certain operating modes or
special techniques developed by Gefran in its years of
experience in the control field are provided at the end of
the Configuration/Programming Section, and are a
valuable consulting tool for the user.
References are made to these Applicative Notes, where
necessary, in the configuration / programming flows.

Subsequent menus can be accessed only by setting the para-
meter

The
PRO
parameter lets you enable or disable the display
and/or change of certain parameters.
For details, see the description of the
PRO
parameter in the
configuration flows.
Jumper S9 on CPU Board
The absence of jumper S9 on the CPU board blocks access to
all menus when the instrument’s hardware configuration does
not required any change of preset parameters.
This jumper is inserted or removed in the factory, and normally
does not need to be changed by the final user.
For more information, see section 6 - Maintenance.
