Input Settings Menus (cont’d) 

Data From (certain menu items only show up depending on the input type) 

o

Source

 determines the type of sensor installed in the detector. E.g. bridge, 

electrochemical, etc. 

o

Remote Sensor

 set to Yes indicates that the sensor is installed remotely with Remote 

sensor option. 

o

Min and Max Raw

 set the range of the input to the A/D converter. Normally set to 

800/4000. Useful when the sensor’s output doesn’t provide a full range signal. 

o

Remote ID

 is where the Modbus slave’s ID number is entered 

o

Alias

 is the register number which defines the location of the variable representing the 

input value of the Modbus data received through the communication ports 

o

Interface

 assigns which communication port the Modbus slave is connected to and the 

detector will get its data from 

o

Filter (second)

 sets the number of seconds over which samples are averaged 

o

Byte Order

 determines WORD and BYTE alignment of data at the remote Modbus 

transmitter when sending this 4-byte IEEE floating point values 

o

Polarity

 determines the polarity of the sensor 

o

Heater

 

Enabled

 determines if the sensor heater is turned on or off 

o

Heat (degC)

 is the thermostat setting of the sensor 

o

Set

 

Voltage

 set’s the voltage being supplied to bridge type sensors 

o

Set

 

Balance

 adjusts the balance of a catalytic bead sensor and must only be adjusted 

with ZERO gas on the sensor. 

o

Set

 

PGA

 is the adjustment that matches the input signal range to the detectors input 

signal conditioning circuits. 

o

Marker

 used to detect special modes of operation from analog inputs, which some 

monitors use to indicate special modes of operation, such as calibration mode 

Configure 

o

Tag 

is a 16-character ASCII field typically used to describe the monitored point by user 

tag number or other familiar terminology.

 

o

E. Units 

or engineering units may have up to 10 ASCII characters, and is usually factory 

configured based on sensor type. 

o

Zero 

defines the reading to be displayed when the output is 4mA (0%)

 

o

Span 

defines the reading to be displayed when 20mA (100%) is the output.

 

o

Decimal Points 

sets the resolution of the displayed reading, and may best to zero, one 

or two.

 

o

Block Negative 

blocks negative values from being display (Displays 0).

 

o

Deadband (%) 

allows forcing low values to continue to read zero.  This is useful when 

there are small amounts of background gases that cause fluctuating readouts above 

zero.  The highest amount of Deadband allowed is 5%.  Note:  Deadband affects all 

outputs as well as the local reading.

 

o

Warmup (m) 

defines the time allotted for sensor warmup. During this time output s will 

be held at a zero value and relays will stay in their normal state.

 

o

Cal Purge (m) 

determines the amount of time the transmitter will stay in calibration 

mode after calibration is complete as the sensor returns to normal state.

 

Calibration 

o

Zero Setpoint 

is set to the zero value.

 

o

Span Setpoint 

is set to the calibration gas value, typically 50% of full scale.

 

o

Cal Gain 

reflects the change made when calibrating.

 

o

Gain Offset 

reflects the change made when calibrating.

 

o

Gain Unity 

is to reset the Gain and Offset back to default (1 and 0 respectively)

 

o

Calibrate

 is used to calibrate sensors. 

Temp Comp

 allows the user to adjust the gain and offset that is applied to sensors to 

compensate for temperature drift.  Factory supplied sensors are preprogrammed with 

these values which are automatically uploaded from the Smart Sensor.
