8.5 Parameters
Parameters are changed in the sub menus from the drop down menu “Configuration“.
Warning:
New configurations only become active after being downloaded into the SWTD-1000 via:
SWTD-1000 Æ Write Parameters
8.5.1 System Parameters (Configuration Æ System)
Machine Factor
The machine factor establishes the relationship between sensor frequency and associated speed.
Machine Factor = Frequency
RPM
See section
4.2 Machine Factor.
Once the correct machine factor is entered, all other settings e.g limits are made in RPM.
Minimum Measuring Time
The minimum measuring time determines the time during which the input frequency is measured. Once
this time has lapsed, the calculation is made following the end of the running signal period. The
minimum measuring time may be increased to filter out frequency jitter so as to display a stable reading
but at the cost of increased reaction time.
Minimum Displayed Value
The minimum displayed value is a measured value under which “0000” is displayed.
Alarm Definition
This function defines the alarm. It may be only system error or a logical OR combination of system error
OR sensor monitoring. During an alarm the LED is off. In addition, the relay is deactivated and the
analog output goes to 0mA irrespective of the output range.
8.5.2 Sensor Parameter (Configuration Æ Sensor)
Sensor Type
The type of sensor to be used is defined here.
<Sensor active>
is for monitoring sensors powered by SWTD-1000 including 2 wire sensors supplied via
the internal pull up resistor. (Jumper J1).
<Sensor passive>
is for monitoring non powered sensors e.g. 2 wire VR (passive) sensors.
See also section 0 9.4.1 Sensor Fault (Sensor Monitoring).
Sensor Iinput
The sensor input “analog” (Sign) or “digital” (IQ) is defined here.
Sensor Current Minimum
As long as the sensor current consumption lies above the value <Current Minimum>, the sensor is
considered to be functioning correctly.
Sensor Current Maximum
As long as the sensor current consumption lies below the value <Current Maximum>, the sensor is
considered to be functioning correctly.
