CAUTION, refer to accompanying documents 1.3 Statement on CE Marking OMEGA’s policy is to comply with all worldwide safety and EMI/EMC regulations that apply to CE Certification standards, including EMC Directive 2014/30/EU Low Voltage Directive (Safety) Directive 2014/35/EU, and EEE RoHS II Directive 2011/65/EU. OMEGA is constantly pursuing certification of its products to the European New Approach Directives.
Unpacking 1.5 Communication Options The Platinum Series Benchtop Digital Controller comes with a USB port standard. Optional Serial and Ethernet connectivity is also available. All communication channels can be used with the Omega Platinum Configurator software and support both the Omega ASCII protocol and the Modbus Protocol.
Hardware Setup 2.2 Power Cords Electrical power is delivered to the Benchtop Digital Controller by an AC power cord which plugs into the IEC 60320 C-13 power socket located on the rear panel of the unit. Refer to Figure 7 for detailed connections. The input power is fused on the Line terminal.
Figure 4 shows the wiring diagram for the process current input using either internal or external excitation. The benchtop unit provides 5V excitation by default and can also output 10V, 12V or 24V excitation voltages. Refer to the Platinum Series User’s Manual (M5451) for more information on selecting the excitation voltage.
Hardware Setup 3.4 Rear Panel The power, fuses and outputs are located on the rear panel of the Benchtop Digital Controller. The optional Ethernet port is also located at the rear of the unit. Figure 7. Rear Panel. (Not to scale) Table 6.
This section outlines the initial programming and configuration of the Benchtop Digital Controller. It gives a brief outline on how to setup the inputs and outputs, and how to configure the setpoint and control modes. Refer to the Platinum Series User’s Manual (M5451) for more detailed information on all the controller’s functions.
Configuration and Programming 4.2 Selecting an Input (INIt>INPt) The Benchtop Digital Controller features a Universal Input. The input type is selected in the Initialization Menu. Select the input type by navigating to the Input sub-menu (INIt>INPt). Available Input types are shown in Table 8. Table 8.
Configuration and Programming 4.4 Set up the Control Output The outputs and control parameters of the unit are set up in the Programming (PRoG) Menu. The unit is configured with a 3A Mechanical Relay and a 5A Solid State Relay. An optional Isolated Analog Output is also available.
Configuration and Programming 4.6 PID Control PID control mode is required for Ramp and Soak applications or for finer process control. For Mechanical Relay and SSR outputs, the output will be on a percentage of time based on the PID control values. The frequency of switching is determined by the (CyCL) parameter for each output.
Configuration and Programming 4.7 Retransmission Using the Analog Output The optional Analog Output can be configured to transmit a Voltage or current signal proportional to the Input. Select the output type in the PRoG > IAN.1 > RNGE menu. For a more detailed discussion of setting up and configuring the Analog Output refer to the Platinum Series User’s Manual (M5451).
