1.3 Introduction to the user interface
The user interface consists of a keypad and a large LCD. During normal use the LCD will
show either the default measurement display or a menu based screen editor display.

The measurement display


The measurement display is shown by default and can be user configured to show the
measurements made by the analyser. The status of the instrument plus the occurrence of an
alarm or fault is also displayed via icons at the bottom of the screen. The display line for
each measurement consists of four fields:

1) The module location defines the identity of the transducer for each
measurement. The letter "I" indicates an internal gas sensor module, the letter
"E" an external transducer (user supplied) and the letter "D" indicates a derived
measurement (as in the case of total nitrogen oxides - refer to section 3.9). The
letter is followed by a number defining the gas sensor module location.

2) The measurement value field is a 6 character number showing the concentration


measured.

3) The engineering units field is user defined with 3 characters showing the units
of measurement.

4) The measurement name field is a 6 character field to show the name or TAG
number.

The keypad
The display may be returned to measurement display at any time by pressing the
'MEASURE' key. If no key is pressed the analyser returns to the measurement display after
one minute. This timeout is extended to 20 minutes during the calibration options.

Press the 'MEASURE' key at any time to return to the default measurement display.

Pressing the 'MENU' key activates the top level menu. It does not affect the continuous
measurement activities of the analyser.

Within menu displays, the user highlights the desired option using the arrow keys
( ) and then presses the 'ENTER' key to action the indicated menu selection or to
confirm completion of text or numerical input.

Pressing the 'QUIT' key aborts the current activity and returns to the previous menu level.

The 'EDIT' key is a short-cut key to access the measurement display editing functions.

4 4000 Series - Configuration and Operation 04000/003C/4


NOTE

When inputting data, a key press will be ignored if the data entered is
invalid.
When entering numeric information or text, the left and right arrow keys
are used to move between characters or digits and the up and down
arrow keys are used to change each character or digit. Negative
imaging (white text on black background) indicates the active word,
character or digit position.
If the Measure, Menu or Quit keys are used to terminate a data entry
(rather than the Enter key) then the data entered is lost.

The screen icons

Autocalibration icon is displayed when autocalibration is active.

Alarm icon is displayed if any of the concentration alarm


levels are reached.

Warm Up icon is normally displayed when the instrument is


turned on. If a sensor fails to achieve its normal
temperature operating conditions within a
specified time, the icon will be turned off and a
failure icon raised.

Failure icon is displayed if any serious fault condition occurs


within the analyser.

Maintenance icon is displayed if a condition arises that requires


operator attention.

4000 Series - Configuration and Operation 04000/003C/4 5


The menu display
To access the menu, the 'MENU' key should be pressed. The analyser will then present the
top level menu, which in turn leads on to other menus. The overall menu structure is shown
in Figure D.

During any menu operation, the fundamental measurements are still being made by the
analyser and all relevant outputs, alarms and diagnostics remain active.

Data input
When alphanumeric text data input is required, the up and down arrow keys allow scrolling
and selection of any available item in the analyser's character set.

Numeric data input may be set to:

i) Any number in the range 0 to 9.


ii) A minus sign (only as the first character)
iii) A decimal point - the position of the decimal point may be changed
from that offered as a default. Any position except the right most
digit may be used.

If an invalid data entry is made, the input will be ignored and the display return to the start
of the relevant data entry screen . No warning message will be generated.

Password protection
Certain operations require the use of a password. There are two passwords, a supervisor
password which gives access to SETUP and CALIBRATION and an operator password,
giving access to CALIBRATION only. These are factory set to 4000, but may be changed
if required; refer to section 2.4.

6 4000 Series - Configuration and Operation 04000/003C/4


2 INITIAL CONFIGURATION

2.1 Power Up and Shutdown procedure


When initially powered up, a message sequence will be displayed. This will start with the
term: 'SYSTEM OK'and progress through a number of screens detailing the analyser, it's
configuration and the software fitted, before displaying: 'MEASURING'.

If the user does not wish to see the power up messages then these can be bypassed by
pressing the measure key during the 'SYSTEM OK' message.

The measurement display should now appear. The display "contrast" control may be
adjusted if necessary using a small flat bladed screwdriver. See Figure A for location of the
adjustment, accessed from the bottom of the front facia.

The warming-up icon (see Figure B) may be displayed until all heated gas sensor modules
are at their respective operating temperature. This may take up to 6 hours. The reading of
certain gas sensor modules may be replaced by a row of stars ('******') during the
warming-up period. Analyser may not have reached optimum performance after the
warming up icon is extinguished, see Installation Manual for recommended warm up times.

To shut down, disconnect the sample gas, flush through with a clean purge gas (e.g.:
nitrogen), then remove power.

2.2 General access to analyser functions


It is recommended that the user refers to the menu map (Figure D) and locates the
function required. Then, using the keypad and display follow the route as mapped. It will
often be necessary to enter the password, which is factory set to 4000.

At display screen: The cursor will initially be on the digit furthest


to the left. Use the up arrow to increment the
ENTER PASSWORD first digit to 4. The display should now be
0000 showing 4000. Press ENTER

3 MAIN CONFIGURATION

3.1 Component name and unit definition


The name of each measurement may be changed (six characters in length max).

The default character is '|' which cannot be displayed but is used to indicate the maximum
number of characters allowed. If fewer than the maximum number of characters is entered
the first '|' is taken to be the last character.

All analyser measurements are based on percentage concentrations. In order to convert to


vpm, for example, a 'scale factor' (of 10,000) is used. The user may 're-define' the
measurement units by adjusting this scale factor. This factor will be applied to the
displayed value, all outputs, alarm and calibration configurations.

The measurement display units and component name are displayed, right justified, in fields
of three and six characters, respectively. To left justify or centralise them the appropriate
number of spaces can be added at either end of the string.

Go via SETUP/UTILITY to LABELS - press ENTER


At display screen Operation
I1 COMPONENT NAME Any combination of up to 6 characters may be used
|||||| e.g. "Oxygen" or "AT-123". Use the arrow keys to
change a character and when the name is correct
press 'ENTER'.
I1 ENG UNIT This entry only defines the label which follows the
||| measurement value, it does not actually affect the

10000 for vpm) Change value as above.

4000 Series - Configuration and Operation 04000/003C/4 9


3.2 Alarms
The analyser has four concentration alarm settings for each measurement (referred to as
AL1, AL2, AL3 and AL4). Each may be enabled or disabled, and the states of the following
parameters need to be set up for every enabled alarm:

i) FREEZE to prevent alarms during calibration or FOLLOW so that


alarms may be activated by calibration gases.
ii) HIGH concentration alarm or LOW concentration alarm.
iii) The concentration LEVEL at which the alarm is to occur.
iv) The HYSTERESIS (dead band) of the alarm, this may be used to
avoid 'chatter' if the typical sample concentration is close to the alarm
level.

10 4000 Series - Configuration and Operation 04000/003C/4


NOTE
A high alarm will be signalled when the sample concentration rises
above the alarm level. This will be cleared when the sample falls
further below the alarm level than the value of hysteresis.
A low alarm will be signalled when the sample concentration falls
below the alarm level. This will be cleared when the sample rises
further above the alarm level than the value of hysteresis.

3.3 Allocation of relays


With the exception of dedicated external autocalibration relays, each relay may be set
up to respond to any combination of the following:

i) Failure of transducers I1 to I4, where fitted and of milliamp inputs E1


and E2.
ii) Maintenance required for transducers I1 to I4, where fitted.
iii) Calibration in Progress for transducers I1 to I4.
iv) Any concentration alarms.
v) Chassis Failure, Chassis Maintenance required.
vi) Warming Up, for transducers I1 to I4, where applicable.

Any existing relay allocation may be edited or cleared. When cleared the relays will remain
non-functional.

NOTE

Optional relays supplied specifically for external autocalibration or any


relay configured to control external valves will be used exclusively for
that purpose. Attempts to change such configuration via the 'allocation
of relays' function are inhibited and will result in the message "RELAY
ASSIGNED TO AUTOCAL".

4000 Series - Configuration and Operation 04000/003C/4 11


The identity of each relay conforms to the standard 4000 series output numbering system,
as listed in the installation manual, which also includes a list of default relay allocations.

12 4000 Series - Configuration and Operation 04000/003C/4


3.4 External analogue input configuration
Two external, linear analogue inputs are provided on the instrument, identified as E1 and
E2 . The name and units for these variables are modified using the LABELS menu entry,
in a similar manner to internal transducers (section 3.1). An additional
'ENABLED/DISABLED' command may be used to turn inputs on or off under the
SETUP/ASSIGN menu.

Input scaling (calibration) is set up via the MAN CAL menu, refer to section 4.3.

3.5 Analogue outputs


The analyser can have up to eight analogue outputs depending on the number of options
fitted. Each output has two ranges: R1 (the default range) and R2 (selected using the
external contact). Maximum output span is limited to twice the full scale range of the
transducer (except Zirconia sensors).

Note: performance typically will begin to degrade above 120%FSD.

As a guide, minimum output spans should be at least 100 times the transducer noise level,
(refer to Installation manual, section 7).

The parameters for an output may be edited or cleared. When cleared the output is non-
functional. Each may be assigned to any one gas sensor, and following parameters must be
set up for all outputs used:

i) Gas sensor module to which analogue output is to be assigned.


ii) Scale (Lower & Upper limits) of the analogue output, range 1.
iii) Scale (Lower & Upper limits) of the analogue output, range 2.
iv) 0 to 20mA or 4 to 20mA. In the case of a 4 to 20mA, the actual
minimum current allowed in normal operation must also be specified.
v) FREEZE the analogue output during calibration or allow it to
FOLLOW calibration sample concentrations.
vi) Set the output to JAM LOW or JAM HIGH in the event of a
measurement failure condition. The output will be forced to zero or
20.5mA respectively - this only applies to 'Failures' (not
Maintenance faults).

4000 Series - Configuration and Operation 04000/003C/4 13


NOTE

If the 4-20mA output is used and a 'minimum current' of less than 4mA
is specified (in iv above), 4mA still corresponds to the lower limit of the
output range (set in ii or iii above).

3.9 Calculation of total nitrogen oxides (NOx) concentration

For a 4000 analyser measuring nitric oxide (NO) the facility exists to calculate an estimate
of the total nitrogen oxides (NOx) level, based on the measured NO level. This estimate can
be displayed and output as a separate measurement, identified on the display by a "D"
prefix in the module location field. Units and calibration are fully dependent on the
associated NO measurement. The total NOx estimate is derived according to the formula:

[NOx] = a * [NO] + b * [NO]2

In most simple combustion processes it is recognised that the NO concentration accounts


for approximately 95% of the total NOx. In this case the total NOx content can be estimated
using factors (a) of 100/95 ( = 1.053), and (b) of zero (0.00).

Go via SETUP/UTILITY to DERIVE NOx - press ENTER

4 CALIBRATION

4.1 Introduction to calibration


Analyser calibration may checked or adjusted manually or automatically. These activities
will result in an entry in the calibration history log, labelled as a "CHK" or a "CAL".

In manual calibration (the term calibration includes 'checking') the operator is guided
through the sequence by messages on the display and each gas sensor module must be
calibrated separately.

Autocalibration or autocheck are referred to together as "autocalibration". Progress may be


monitored on the display (see Figure C) and the measurement of the sensor(s) being
calibrated will flash. The autocalibration cycle can be initiated in four ways:

by the internal timer


by external contact closure
by keypad entry
by Modbus command

Pressing any key during the cycle will allow the autocalibration to be stopped. If aborted,
the final "post flush" sequence is run. This may also be aborted in the same way.
Autocalibration may also be stopped by means of a Modbus command.

NOTE

Autocalibration cannot be configured to perform a HIGH calibration


(21% oxygen "air point") with a zirconia oxygen gas sensor module.
The instrument will only respond to autocalibration initiation from the
internal timer, external input or Modbus command if no faults are
indicated. Autocalibration can be initiated from the keypad when there
is a fault condition.
All of the following sections assume that calibration gases as
recommended in the installation manual are available to the
analyser!

If the analyser is still warming-up and a manual calibration is attempted, a warning


message will be given with an option to proceed. For optimum performance, all gas sensor
modules should reach operating temperature before performing initial calibration.

Autocalibration can be configured to calibrate all gas sensor modules independently, or in


any simultaneous combination.

4.2 Setting Low and High calibration tolerances
A limit may be placed on the amount by which a calibration may be changed. If exceeded
during autocalibration it will be aborted and a fault indicated. If exceeded during manual
calibration a warning will be given with an option to proceed.

Go via SETUP/UTILITY to LO & HI TOL - press ENTER


At display screen Operation
I1 Oxygen LO TOL Set the required low cal tolerance*
00.00% then press 'ENTER'.
I1 Oxygen HI TOL Set the required high cal tolerance*
00.00% then press 'ENTER'.

* It is recommended that the tolerance should not be greater than 10% of sensor FSD - the
factory default settings.

4.3 Manual calibration and checking


In most cases it is recommended that a LOW calibration is made before any HIGH
calibrations, however, if both points are to be calibrated for a Zirconia sensor, the
reverse is true.

Notes: (apply to the calibration procedure on the next page)

PRESS (pressure) calibrations are only applicable to Oxygen Purity sensors

* If the module is warming-up a warning will be given with an option to proceed.

** If the calibration has changed by more than the tolerance a warning will be given
with an option to proceed.

*** If the calibration was not successful a temporary message will be displayed
e.g. 'BAD [LOW/HIGH] CAL, CAL IGNORED'. This indicates that the output
of the gas sensor module is very significantly outside of the expected range for
the calibration gas entered. Check the value of the calibration gas.

NOTE

If autocalibration is configured, manual calibrations will activate the


valve signalling, however, the relays must first be set up within
autocalibration.

the calibration history buffer. No warnings are given regarding the validity of the
calibration check.

22 4000 Series - Configuration and Operation 04000/003C/4


4.4 Calibration of paramagnetic pressure transducer
(Only applicable to oxygen purity gas module.)
To perform this it is necessary to expose the pressure transducer to two different sample
pressures whilst sampling the HIGH cal gas:

i) analyser venting to atmospheric pressure


ii) analyser venting to a slightly elevated pressure of 1.25psig / 8.6kPag
above atmospheric pressure

The minimum pressure elevation required for this procedure is 1psig / 6.9kPag, the
maximum pressure elevation is 1.5psig / 10.3kPag.

This may be performed by temporarily fitting a suitable needle valve on the analyser
sample outlet for the paramagnetic purity module and adjusting it to restrict the outlet to
achieve an increase in sample pressure in the sensor. The overall sample flow, however,
should remain constant as far as possible during this procedure.

WARNING

Do not exceed the specified maximum sample inlet pressure (pressure


driven option) or maximum inlet flow rate (flow driven option) during
this procedure or transducer damage may result.

NOTE

This procedure must be preceded by a low calibration.


For most accurate results the high calibration gas should be pure
oxygen. Gases containing less than 15% oxygen must NOT be used
for the calibration of the pressure transducer.
This procedure must be immediately followed by a high calibration.

4.5 Autocalibration and autocheck setup
With the use of up to four autocalibration Groups it is possible to configure fully
independent calibration of any sensor configuration.

The following parameters must be set up for either autocalibration or autocheck, hereafter
referred to as "Autocalibration":
The time and date must be correctly set before using autocalibration.
Selection of 'LOW' or 'LOW & HIGH' autocalibration (remember that
Zirconia sensors cannot have a high autocalibration).
LOW and HIGH calibration gas concentrations.
Autocalibration period (i.e. time between successive autocalibrations;
minimum 1 hour, maximum 59 days + 24 hours).
Date and time of start of cycle (first autocalibration).
Flush time - this may be set, to suit the installation, to a value between 0.5
and 16 minutes so that each gas concentration stabilises before being read.
After each flush time the gas will flow for an additional minute to allow the
new 'calibrated' level to be viewed or recorded.
Selection of autocalibration or autocheck.
Calibration Gas Relays (if analyser relays are to be used).
It is necessary to specify which calibration gas (1 or 2) is used for the LOW
calibration of each sensor.

Autocalibration groups
An Autocalibration group (comprising one to four sensors) is a group of sensors that:

Will be Autocalibrated together.


Share the same relays controlling calibration gases and by inference the same
calibration gases (but the definition of which cal gas is high or low for each sensor is
independent of group).
Require the same type of autocalibration; i.e: LOW & HIGH, check or cal.
Require the same flush time.

Groups are independent, but only one autocalibration can be in progress at any one time. A
queuing mechanism is used to ensure autocalibrations are not missed, however, the queue
is of finite length. The user is expected to avoid filling it by 'over' scheduling .

Figure C shows the response of a typical sensor during autocalibration in which CAL 1 is
used to set the sensor low (zero) and CAL 2 the high (span). Further explanation of the
events occurring at each stage is given in the installation manual along with configuration
details for users who use the serial output to control autocalibration valves.

4000 Series - Configuration and Operation 04000/003C/4 25


If autocheck is selected, corrections are not calculated or applied, however the magnitude
of the differences in reading are stored in the calibration history logs.

NOTE

If an out of calibration tolerance fault is generated during the


autocalibration procedure then this may only be removed by
performing a subsequent successful one cycle auto or manual
calibration.
A sensor warming up or failure flag prevents autocalibration for all
sensors in a group.
