Operating instructions
3. Controller:
You can assign inputs for up to four controllers in this tab.
Select a sensor, a virtual input or a timer. Set the centre row of the
control function (Tab. 23 “Functions of the individual controllers” on
page 19) and press the right-hand arrow. Controllers 1 to 4 must
be assigned to the output modules 1 to 4 in a fixed fashion.
4. Digital outputs:
You can assign a function to output modules in this
tab. Only the output modules which are still free are displayed. Press
the right-hand arrow.
5.
Confirm the security query with “Yes” to save the configuration.
ü
The configuration assistant has been ended.
i
Start the configuration assistant manually in System > Set-
tings > Configuration > “Configuration assistant”.
8.2 Configuration
The device is set up variably and can be individually adapted to meet your
requirements. As such, it is necessary to adjust the configuration of the
inputs and outputs to the sensors and actors used.
The following section leads you through the device configuration.
8.2.1 Inputs
You can connect up to four sensors (depending on model) for various wa-
ter parameters and the temperature to the device. You can also use up to
eight digital inputs (depending on the version).
8.2.1.1 Sensor inputs
The sensors in the device must be configured individually to enable pre-
cise and error-free measurement of the water parameters. You can per-
form various settings.
Perform the following work steps:
1.
In the main menu, navigate from System > Inputs to the “Sensors”
tab.
2.
In the “Sensors” tab, configure every connected sensor and state the
following information.
3. Input:
Select the input module of the sensor which you wish to con-
figure.
4. Signal:
Enter the type of the sensor signal. Depending on the input
module, the signal type has been specified or you can select a signal
type.
5. Measurement:
Here, you can check which water parameters are
measured. This setting can only be changed in the configuration as-
sistant.
6. Unit:
Select the appropriate unit.
7. Measuring range:
If an input field is available, enter the measuring
range of the sensor.
8. Min-alarm:
Activate or deactivate the minimum alarm and state a
value under which the alarm will be triggered.
9. Max-alarm:
Activate or deactivate the maximum alarm and state a
value over which the alarm will be triggered.
10. Delay:
Set a time delay for the “minimum and maximum alarm”.
ü
Configuration of the sensors completed.
8.2.1.2 Temperature inputs
You can connect up to four temperature sensors (depending on the ver-
sion) to the device. This enables you to measure the temperatures at vari-
ous positions.
Perform the following work steps:
1.
In the main menu under System > Inputs, navigate to the “Tempera-
ture” tab.
2.
In the “Temperature” tab, configure every connected temperature
sensor and state the following information.
3. Measurement:
Chose between “On” and “Off”.
4. Min-alarm:
Activate or deactivate the minimum alarm and state a
temperature under which the alarm will be triggered.
5. Max-alarm:
Activate or deactivate the maximum alarm and state a
temperature over which the alarm will be triggered.
ü
Configuration of the temperature sensors completed.
8.2.1.3 Compensation of cross sensitivities
The water parameters which you measure with the device can be falsi-
fied by interference (e. g. with temperature or pH value).
The device can compensate these interferences automatically.
Perform the following work steps:
1.
Working in the main menu under System > Inputs, navigate to the
“Compensation” tab.
2.
Working in the “Compensation” tab, configure every sensor connect-
ed for which the measured value is to be compensated and state the
following information
3. Temperature:
If it is possible to compensate for the influence of the
temperature, you can select a fixed reference value or one of the four
temperature inputs.
4. pH value:
If it is possible to compensate for the pH value error, you
can select a fixed reference value or a sensor input.
ü
Configuration of the compensation completed.
