MAX. AND MIN. READINGS (PEAKS)

Displaying:

To display the peak values of Process variable push Peak key once and let go. The display will first indicate ‘HIGH Pt’ briefly and then the value of the highest Process variable value monitored by the system. A second push while high peak is being displayed will bring up low peak value on the display. The value will be preceeded by the message ‘LO PT’..

Resetting:

To reset the peaks to the present value of Process Variable simply push the PEAK key once and keep it pushed. The display will briefly indicate ‘HIGH Pt’ and then the value of the high peak. With the PEAK key still pushed, go on to press the RESET key. On resetting the display will indicate the new value of high peak. To reset the low peak value, get the system in low peak display mode. This is done by pushing the PEAK key twice. Do not release the PEAK key after the second push. While keeping the PEAK key pushed, press the RESET key. This will reset the low peak to current Process Variable value.

RATE

The DP3600 unit keeps track of the rate of process change and can be displayed by pushing the key labeled ‘RATE’. The display first reads 'RATE' followed by the rate value that was monitored over the last time base. The maximum rate of change displayable is equal to the value of High Scale. If the calculated rate is negative, it will be indicated so by a negative sign. Rate time base, which is in seconds, is programmable and is set during SETUP of the unit.

TIME

Displaying:

The system keeps track of the process run time in hours, minutes and seconds. The display format is HH.MM.SS (HH = Hours, MM = Minutes, SS = Seconds). To display the elapsed time since the system was turned on or last reset, push the TIME key. The display will first read 'ELPSd t' (for ELAPSED TIME) and then the value of elapsed time.

Resetting:

To reset the timing and start it all over again, first push the TIME key and while keeping it pushed press the ‘RESET’ key. The time will reset and the display will read ‘RESET’ following which the unit will start tracking time from zero.

NOTE: On resetting, the time relays, if energized, will de-energize and would be activated again when the programmed amount of time has elapsed.
