PR-23 instruction manual

The selection of tolerance time with DD-23 requires a careful risk analysis. The use of
the tolerance time functionality does not slow down the response of the instrument
when the instrument is in

NORMAL OPERATION

. It does, however, slow down the malfunc-

tion alarm in the DD-23 in case the process pipe becomes empty or some other reason
makes the optical image impossible to interpret. The recommended value for toler-
ance time is 5 seconds when a DTR is used in a DD-23 system.

6.3 Configuring relays

For the electrical properties of the built-in relays, see Section 3.3.3. Each of the two
relays can be configured individually to either Sensor A or Sensor B, i.e. 0–2 relays can
be assigned to a sensor. Relays can also be opened and closed manually, mainly to test
them.

To configure the relays, follow the instructions below:

1. Select

5 CALIBRATION

from the Main menu.

2. Select

3 RELAYS

from the Calibration menu.

3. Select the relay, either

1 RELAY 1

or

2 RELAY 2

, to be configured.

4. In the Relay menu (see Figure 6.6) select

1 SENSOR

to assign the current relay to ei-

ther Sensor A or Sensor B.
Note:

The current assignment of the relay is shown at the bottom of the Re-

lay menu display, e.g. Figure 6.6 Relay 1 is assigned to Sensor A with function
Low limit.
