EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL EA015 Multi Function Workstation The multi function workstation provides a central work area with all connections routed conveniently to remote terminals mounted at the front of the adapter. The adapter extends the capabilities of the calibrator to include : 2 / 10 / 50 TURN CLAMP COIL INSULATION RESISTANCE OUTPUT CONTINUITY RESISTANCE OUTPUT INS.
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL Design Notes Incorporating the advanced clamp coil, thermocouple simulation and tachometer calibration adapters as well as process control source / measure capabilities, this workstation adapter provides a versatile platform for efficient calibration of a wide range of equipment.
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL Digital Thermometers Digital thermometers can be easily calibrated accurately using the workstation’s built in thermocouple simulation output with automatic cold junction compensation.
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL Voltage Measure DC Voltage Measurement Input Current Measure DC Current Measurement Input Voltage Output Voltage output from calibrator Low Current Output Current output from calibrator (to 2A) High Current Output Current output from calibrator (to 30A) Common Common for calibrator output terminals Connection Recommendations To connect the EA015 Multi function workstation to the 3000 Series multi product calibrator, follow the connection diagram
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL Using the EA015 with the Virtual Front Panel Software The EA015 workstation adapter should be connected as shown above. The main terminals from the calibrator should be connected to the corresponding terminals on the side of the adapter. The adapter interface on the calibrator should be connected to the adapter interface on the EA015 Workstation adapter.
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL Operation of the Virtual Front Panel Once the correct COM port is selected, the calibrator will be detected, and the main screen displayed : The main functions of the workstation are : Thermocouple Simulation Tachometer Calibration Insulation Resistance & Voltage Continuity Resistance & Current mA & mV Measurement Terminal Switching Functions : Thermocouple Simulation Connect temperature meter to thermocouple connector on workstation using thermocouple c
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL Functions : Tachometer Calibration Enter an RPM value in the box marked ENTER VALUE, the press the SET button. The tachometer LED will illuminate – point the optical tachometer at the LED. Note : The workstation RPM output must be set using the virtual front panel software – the 3000 Series front panel function cannot be used. Functions : Insulation Resistance Select the INSULATION RESISTANCE tab Connect meter to terminals marked Insulation resistance.
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL Functions : Insulation Test Voltage Select the INSULATION TEST VOLTAGE tab Connect meter to terminals marked Insulation resistance. 1 : Select a voltage range using the range buttons 2. Apply voltage from the Insulation tester Functions : Continuity Resistance & Current Connect meter to terminals marked continuity resistance. Function will default to 1 Ohm range, with continuity current measurement.
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL Functions : mA & mV Measurement Connect meter to terminals marked voltage measure or current measure as required Select current or voltage range as appropriate – voltage / current will be displayed on the virtual front panel display.
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL The output panel, shown left, allows the user to select a value to output and then automatically set the calibrator output and switch to the appropriate terminals / coil output on the workstation adapter. STEP 1 : Enter an output value The output value is entered using the keypad. Micro or milli can be selected using the buttons provided : micro milli Numeric buttons 0-9 and decimal point – use these to enter a value.
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL STEP 2 : Setting to DC or AC Use the DC button to set to DC, or enter a frequency using the keypad, then press Hz to set an AC frequency. Frequency display within main window – DC or a frequency, eg. 50Hz. STEP 3 : Select a function Select either Voltage or Current by using the buttons provided : Volts Amps STEP 4 : Select a Voltage / Current output For voltage, once the output value is set and V is pressed, proceed directly to STEP 5.
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL 10 Turn Coil : Available for currents between 10A and 300A 2 Turn Coil : Available for currents between 4A and 60A Terminals Available for currents between 0A and 2A (Low Current Terminals) 2A and 30A (High Current Terminals) Transmille Ltd.
EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL Note : Only the outputs which are available for current value entered are enabled – if the button is not available (greyed out) this means it is not possible to output this value using that specific output (eg. It is not possible to output 2A using the 50 turn coil – minimum value from 50 turn coil is 100A : 2A x 50 turns). STEP 5 : Set Output Once the output value is set, press the enter button to set the output.

EA015 MULTI FUNCTION WORKSTATION OPERATION MANUAL Care & Maintenance The only maintenance instructions for the adapter is periodic cleaning. See below for details on the cleaning procedure and precautions for handling. Cleaning the Adapter To keep the external enclosure of the adapter in good condition, clean the outer case with a soft cloth. Do not use any liquids in cleaning the enclosure – removal of surface dust is all that is recommended.
