LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual Quick Start Guide Caution As with any precision-engineered device, always operate the LLC-BA Batch Unit in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Connect to Flow Transmitter You will connect three wires from the sensor to the back of the LLC-BA: a red wire (electrical power) a white wire (signal), and a black wire (ground) Notice Color of wires may vary.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual Use the SEL key to isolate the data you would like to enter. Use the UP and DN keys to move the cursor as desired and to enter information. Use the ENT key to confirm data and to enter information into the LLC-BA. Find complete programming information in the Programming the LLC-BA section on page 20. Enter KFR and KFT Factors The Calibration Sheet packed with the flow meter(s) includes the KFR and KFT factors.

LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual Input and Output Wiring Connections Make all connections to the LLC-BA from the back of the unit. A plug-in connector from the wall plugtype power supply, normally supplied with the unit, delivers power. If necessary, any standard AC wall plug unit providing 13-17VAC/250mA. or 15-24VDC/250mA. may be used. A standard female plug (2.1mm I.D. x 5.5mm O.D.) supplies AC or DC power to the LLC-BA.

LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual LLC-BA Initial Messages After five seconds the LLC-BA briefly displays ***AW Company***. Then the unit displays the following four variables for approximately two seconds each: VERSION a w 1 . XX – the software version installed in the LLC-BA. ON COUNT -> 00000XX – how many times the unit has been powered up; increments each power-on cycle. LEFT MEM%0000100 – percent of memory life remaining in 10% increments.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual TOTALIZER 1 (TO1) In TOTALIZER 1 mode, the LLC-BA displays the total of the currently programmed BATCH in progress. Totalizer 1 resets to zero on a START input when in RUN mode and counts up to the batch amount. The LLC-BA retains this total with power removed. The display is based on the programmed KFT value, KFT engineering units, and decimal point. TO1 000000.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual Totalizer 1 Maintains a total of the batch currently running. In RUN Mode, a momentary closure of the BATCH RESET input resets TOT1. Reset occurs when the user implements START at the start of each batch or BATCH with the SEL key. To reset Totalizer 1 in the PROGRAM Mode, select TO1 using the UP key and press RESET. TO1 resets to zero and the TO1- display (inverse TO1) resets to the quantity of the active batch.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual RUN Mode In the RUN Mode, the external batch functions inputs are active. (See the Connection Diagram on page 12.) Two keys are active on the front panel: the MODE key (UP) changes the display BATCH (SEL) starts or stops a batch Batch Operation When you press START or BATCH, the LLC-BA initiates and then stops flow when the batch quantity is reached. You can select one of nine programmable batches using “Batch Select.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual Use the BATCH key (SEL) and ENT to activate batches in PROGRAM mode. See Programming Mode for details. Batch Input and Output Functions The following inputs and outputs are active in the RUN Mode for batch operation. They function as follows: INPUT1 Momentarily closing INPUT1 activates START/STOP. Batch START occurs on the rising edge of the signal as the connection opens.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual Batch Progress Signal Directly corresponds to the progress of the batch where 4 mA equals zero progress and 20mA is equal to the full batch amount. Batch Number Signal mA value indicates batch number in 1mA increments with 5 – 13mA representing batch numbers 1-9. To assign the output to the Batch Number Signal function, wire a jumper to the back of the LLC-BA between terminal 11 and terminal 13 (see following diagram).

LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual Programming the LLC-BA The LLC-BA user will need to edit the default Batch quantities as well as the default application- dependant variables shown in the Programming Label Diagram. The KFR and KFT scaling variables shown underlined in the Label Diagram at the right are the default values, which display the rate in Hertz and the totals in pulses.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual DELAY This variable sets the delay time for Relay2 (high flow solenoid output) relative to the START input. Typical delays are from 0.00 to 4.00 seconds. This function is used in slow start applications where Relay1 (low flow solenoid output) is energized immediately at a START input and Relay2 (high flow solenoid output) is turned on after the DELAY time. 00000.50 seconds Press and hold UP or DN to increase or decrease the value.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual situations (below 10Hz), the LLC-BA converts automatically to pulse-width measurement to increase the accuracy of the display. 0000001 seconds Notice The display will not function if this variable is set to zero! Use UP or DN to increase or decrease the value. Press ENT to store and advance to the next variable. 0-set mAs This variable is used to set the lower range of the Batch Progress mA output and as a fine offset adjustment for the output.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual Remove the insignificant decimals often produced with this calculation as they result in displays with a misleading level of precision far exceeding the accuracy of the meter. Use a maximum of four digits regardless of decimal point position! Enter KFR without regard to the location of the decimal point in the display. Enter the desired decimal location in the next procedure. The largest acceptable number for KFR is 65535.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual KFT-Factor For the LLC to display in a desired engineering unit such as Gallons, the user must program an appropriate scaling factor, called the KFT factor. The KFT is calculated using the K-factor of the transducer being monitored. The K-factor is the number of impulses per engineering unit established by the transducer manufacturer or by a calibration test. 0010000.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual Decimal Point for KFT This variable selects the location of the decimal point in the KFR factor and the display. This display is always zeros with a decimal point. 0000000. (factory default) Use the UP or DN key to move the decimal point left or right. Press ENT to store and advance to the next variable. Engineering Units KFT Enter the engineering units for display of rate with up to three characters or letters.
LLC-BA Batch Unit Operation and Programming Manual To program a batch quantity, press the BATCH key (SEL). The display momentarily reads SET BATCH-->1 and then displays BATCH1-> 0000000. Pressing SEL again increments the batch number. With a batch selected, press and hold UP or DN to increase or decrease the batch quantity. To increase or decrease rate, while holding the UP or DN, press and hold the SEL for medium rate or ENT for maximum rate.
