5 Powering Up

CAUTION:

Ensure safe wiring practices have been followed. When powering up for the first time, disconnect the output connections.

The instrument must be powered from a supply according to the wiring label on the side of the unit. The supply will be either 100 to 240V AC, or 24/48V AC/DC powered. Check carefully the supply voltage and connections before applying power.

Powering Up Procedure

At power up, a self-test procedure is automatically started, during which a splash screen is displayed and the LED indicators are lit. At the first power up from new, or if the option modules are changed, the Setup Wizard will run, indicating that configuration is required (refer to the Setup Wizard section of this manual). At all other times, the instrument returns to Operation Mode once the self-test procedure is complete.

Display

The instrument has a 160 x 80 pixel monochrome graphical display with dual colour (red/green) backlight. The main display typically shows the process variable and setpoint values or a graphical trend during normal operation. There are various bar graph, recorder status and profile status information options (refer to the Display Configuration section for more details). The top line of the display has labels for the 4 LED indicators. If desired, the backlight colour can be changed to indicate the presence of an active alarm.
