Instruction Manual
2.5 Module S2
Module S2 provides 1 RS-232 ASCII communications port, to install in
DPF20 digital panel meters. Protocol specifications are the same as with
module S4
(see section 2.4)
, with only difference that the physical bus is
RS-232 instead of RS-485.
S2 modules allow for point-to-point communication over RS-232 and also
allow for multinode communication over RS-232 using a ‘Daisy-Chain’ type
of connection.
Terminals RX1 and TX1 are for connection to the RS-232 bus. Terminals
RX2 and TX2 are for RS-232 multinode connection. Frames received on
RX1 with destination address different than the local instrument’s ad
-
dress, will be retransmitted over the TX2 terminal. In a similar way, frames
received from RX2 with destination address other than the local address,
will be retransmitted over TX1 terminal.
Up to a maximum of 3 S4 modules can be installed in a single instrument,
all modules isolated between them and isolated from all other circuits.
Modules S2 can be ordered pre-installed into a DPF20 digital panel meter,
or standalone for delayed installation, as they do not require soldering or
special configuration.

Module R2
occupies Opt.1 (2 relays)
Module R4
occupies Opt.1 and Opt.2 (4 relays)
Module R6
occupies Opt.1, Opt.2 and Opt.3 (6 relays)
Modules R2, R4 and R6 provide 2, 4 and 6 relay outputs, to install in
DPF20 digital panel meters.
Configuration is performed from the frontal keypad of the meter, by
setting the parameters at the ‘Opt.1’ configuration menu (not from
the alarm configuration menu (‘ALr.1’, ‘ALr.2’ o ‘ALr.3’) of the instru
-
ment).
The menu allows to configure the setpoint, hysteresis, independent
activation and deactivation delays, and a second setpoint to create
alarm windows.
Only 1 modules R2, R4 or R6 can be installed in a single instrument,
as the are not compatible with themselves (2 modules R2 are not ac
-
cepted) and are not compatible with modules R1, T1 or SSR.
Modules R2, R4 and R6 are isolated against all other instrument cir
-
cuits.
Modules R2, R4 and R6 can be ordered pre-installed into a DPF20
digital panel meter, or standalone for delayed installation, as they do
not require soldering or special configuration.
