Function
SPECTOR control is an operating, indicating and automating device for boiler
management.
The sensors and SPECTOR control use the CANopen protocol. At regular intervals the
CANopen devices send data telegrams via CAN bus. The data transfer is in accordance
with ISO 11898.
All transferred process data are continuously received and evaluated by
SPECTOR
control . If a connected CANopen device interrupts the data transmitting cycle,
an alarm message is given and a visual signal is indicated by the display.
To establish and monitor the available parameters of CANopen devices you can either
use the operating panel or a PC or handheld.
The configuration is menu driven. Make sure that you only enter correct parameters,
since the CANopen devices do not perform checks regarding consistency and range of
values.
SPECTOR control saves the adjusted parameters and received data.
The integrated PLC (programmable logic controller) enables the use of control functions
and different software controllers as well as the incorporation of alarm values.
