Virtual Relay States

There are three virtual relay states available:

Table C-1. 2410 Relay States

Virtual Relay State

Description

Alarm

In the Alarm state the relay is de-energized. Depending on how the

 

relays are connected, they will be either open or closed in the

 

de-energized state.

 

Note that a relay defined as Normally Open will be open in the Alarm

 

state.

 

If the relay is configured as Normally Closed it will be closed in the

 

Alarm state.

Normal

In the Normal state the relay is energized.

Toggle

The relay switches periodically between Normal and Alarm

Table C-2. 2410 Relay Control Modes

Virtual Relay Output

The Virtual Relay Output setting determines whether the relays are active or disabled.

Virtual Relay Output

Description

Disabled

The relay function is turned off.

 

 

Relay 1/Relay 2

Specifies the actual relay that the Relay Output is connected to.

 

The Rosemount 2410 Tank Hub can be equipped with one or two

 

relays.

 

 

Source

Specifies the measurement variable that triggers the relay switching.

“Tank Name/Tank Position” refers to the tank position in the Rosemount 2410 Tank Database. The Tank Database maps all devices connected to the 2410 Tank Hub to the specific tanks, see the Raptor System Configuration Manual (Document no. 300510EN) for more information about configuration of the 2410 Tank Database.

Tank Parameter refers to the measurement variable that triggers the relay switching. For example, Level, Delta_Level, Ullage or any other variable can be chosen as source.

Switch Delay

This is the delay time for the relay to switch into alarm state, i.e. the amount of time it takes for a relay to respond to an alarm. You can use this parameter to prevent the relay from switching due to small temporary variations of the source signal. This may for example occur if there is a turbulent product surface.

Toggle Period

When the relay is in Toggle state it switches between On and Off at a rate defined by the Toggle Period.
