53ML5100B Manual Loader
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Product Overview
The 53ML5100B provides the capability to manually adjust and display one or two current outputs. Each
output is independently configurable as a 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA signal. The Manual Loading Station can also
accept two input process variables that are each presented on separate displays. The two input process
variables have independent configurable input current/voltage ranges (0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, 0-5 V, 1-5 V), with
linear or square root signal extraction, and smoothing selections from 0 seconds to 1638 seconds (first order
filtering). Axis scale ranges, tag names, measured units, and forward/reverse valve indicators are
configurable display
attributes.
A suite of six operator displays is used to monitor the two input process variables and the two manually
controlled current outputs. The displays are a mix of dynamic bar graphs that include:
 Dual Channel Manual Loader Display (Channels 1&2)
 Single Channel Manual
 Loader Display (Channel 1 only)
 Two Manual Loader with Analog Input Displays (Channel 1 and Channel 2)
 Two Analog Input Indicator with Setpoint Displays (Channel 1 and Channel 2)
Presentation order of the six operator displays is configurable. The operator displays are paged forward or
back, in the order configured, by pressing the F2 (page forward) or the F1 (page back) push button on the
horizontal keypad of the instrument. The operator display suite is illustrated in Figure 1-1 and the instrument
horizontal keypad is identified in Figure 1-2.
Dual Channel Manual Loader Display (Channels 1&2) - both channel outputs are presented as horizontal
bar graphs with tag names and digital readouts of the output percentage. Channel 1 (Analog Output 0 [ANO-
0]) occupies the upper half of the display and channel two (Analog Output 1 [ANO-1]) occupies the lower half
of the display. A thick border around the perimeter of the upper or lower display half indicates a selected
channel for manual output control. The thick border alternately appears on the upper or lower display halves
each time the 3 push button is pressed. This display focuses attention on the channel 1 and 2 outputs.
Single Channel Manual Loader Display (Channel 1 only) - channel 1 (ANO-0) output is presented as a
horizontal bar graph with a tag name and digital readout of the output percentage. It has a permanent thick
border to indicate selection for manual output control. This display applies when a single output is required
and focuses attention on that output.
Manual Loader with Analog Input Displays (Channel 1 and Channel 2) - two displays, one for each
channel. Each display has a vertical bar graph for analog input process variable (PV) indication and a
horizontal bar graph for analog output manual control indication. The vertical bar graph has a 50 segment
axis and the horizontal bar graph has a 40 segment axis. Also, the vertical axis has a numeric range (zero
and span) and the horizontal axis has the forward/reverse valve indicators (C for close, O for open). An input
channel tag name appears in the upper left corner of the display. A digital readout with measured units for the
analog input channel appears under the letters PV in the upper half of the display. A digital readout for the
analog output channel appears under the horizontal bar graph. These two displays are in standard MicroMod
MICRO-DCI format.
Analog Input Indicator with Setpoint Displays (Channel 1 and Channel 2) - two displays, one for each
channel. Each display has a vertical bar graph for analog input process variable (PV) indication and a setpoint
(SP) arrowhead for analog output manual control indication. The vertical bar graph appears on the left side,
parallel to a 50 segment vertical axis. The setpoint arrowhead appears on the right side of the vertical axis.
