BCG450-SP
General Information
The BCG450-SP gauge has a fieldbus interface
that conforms to the Profibus DPV1 standard
(
→ [9]).
Via this interface, the following and further data
are exchanged in the standardized Profibus proto-
col (
→ [1], [2]):
• Pressure reading
• Pressure unit (mbar, Torr, Pa)
• Degas function
• Status and error messages
Two adjustable switching functions are integrated in the
gauge. With the built-in atmosphere switching function an
atmospheric pressure thresold can be programmed
(
→ [2]). The corresponding relay contacts are available at
the sensor cable connector.
The basic sensor and sensor electronics of the BCG450-SP
type are the same as in the standard BCG450 (
→ [1], [2]).

Operation
Caution
Caution: data transmission errors
The attempt to operate the BPG450-SP with the
RS232C interface causes data transmission
errors.
The BPG450-SD must not be operated with the
RS232C interface.
Operating Software
For operating the gauge via the Profibus network, prior in-
stallation of the gauge specific GSD file is required. This
software can be downloaded via internet (
→ [5]).
Note Address Setting
The node address (0 … 125
dec
) is set in
hexadecimal form (00 … 7D
hex
) via the
"ADDRESS", "MSD", and "LSD" switches
(default 5C
hex
). The node address is polled
by the firmware when the gauge is
switched on. If the setting deviates from the
stored value, the new value is taken over
into the NVRAM. If a value >125
dec
(>7D
hex
)
is entered, the node address setting
currently stored in the device remains valid
but it can now be defined via Profibus ("Set
slave Address",
→ [4]).
Adjusting the Gauge
Gauge adjustment is carried out automatically, no manual
adjustment is required required (adjustment of the
atmosphere sensor
→ [2]).
