If Modbus 32 BIT is selected, a Byte Order entry appears at the bottom of the menu.
This determines WORD and BYTE alignment of data at the remote Modbus transmitter
when sending its 4 byte IEEE Floating Point values. With the pointer on this entry, the
EDIT key toggles between the 4 possible modes. Min / Max Raw values are not used in
this mode.
Note: Each
Data From
: item has a matching default Min/Max counts value of 20% to
100% with ± 5% over/under range applied. If the default value is incorrect for the input
device it should be edited.
2.2.4b MARKER
MENUS
Some transmitters or monitoring devices providing SafeGuard Controller inputs also
indicate special modes of operation, such as
Calibration,
Maintenance or Fault,
by
transmitting a special <4mA or negative “Marker” value. The SafeGuard Controller
offers channel Marker menus for detecting and indicating such events (see Figure 2.5).
While active, the SafeGuard Controller displays a 6-digit ASCII message to indicate the
special event and if equipped with SG10-0167 4-20mA output option, the SafeGuard
Controller also transmits the same <4mA value.
•
Marker Enabled
turns the marker feature ON and OFF
•
The negative Marker value is entered into the
Marker %
field as a negative percent
of full scale. For example, -15.62% of full scale detects a marker value of 1.5mA
(1.5mA is -15.62% of full scale when 4-20mA is the range).
•
It should be noted that for
Net Safety Flame Detectors the current output for a
visual
integrity fault is 2.0 mA
this corresponds to a Marker % of -12.5%.
For
Net
Safety
Gas Sensor Fault Condition, the current output is 2.5 mA which
would
correspond to a Marker % of approximately -9.4 %.
•
The
Mark As
menu allows user entry of the 6-digit ASCII message to be displayed
when the marker is detected.

2.2.4c SENSOR LIFE DETECTION (- this feature is not used at this time)
Sensor Life
should only be activated when the Marker event is
Calibration
and when a
sensor life value is transmitted after each calibration. For
Sensor Life
to record properly
the monitor must perform as follows: After the
Calibration
Marker interval, 4.0mA
transmits for 10 seconds to indicate its
calibration mode
is complete. The monitor then
transmits between 4.0mA and 5.0mA for five seconds depending on remaining sensor life
where 4.0mA = 0% and 5.0mA = 100% remaining sensor life. The SafeGuard Controller
