| Section A: Series 2000 General |
| |
| 1)
Are the 2200 and 2400 option boards compatible? |
| No, the 2200 boards are physically
different than 2400 boards. |
| 2)
Can the series 2000 fixed relays be configured as a heat or cool output? |
-
On the 2216, 2208, and 2204 the fitted
relay can be configured as a heat or cool output.
-
On the 2408 and 2404 the fitted relay
can only be configured as an alarm or event.
|
| 3)
What hardware comes with the series 2000? |
| The models 2132, 2116, and 2108i
have a fixed hardware build. The 2116/32 has one relay output and one logic
output per instrument. The 2108i has two fixed relays. The models 2216,
2208, and 2204 have two plug in slots for modular hardware. The model 2216
has one fitted relay that can be enabled at the factory or with a configuration
adaptor/hardlock. The models 2208 and 2204 have two fitted relays that
can be enabled at the factory or with a configuration adaptor/hardlock.
The models 2416, 2408, and 2404 have three plug in slots for modular hardware.
The 2408 and 2404 have one fitted alarm relay that can be enabled at the
factory or with a configuration adaptor/hardlock. The 2416's have no fitted
alarm relays. |
| 4)
Which series 2000 instruments can be order as a special, with a BC protocol? |
| 2400. Special S254. |
| 5)
What series 2000 instruments have digital communications? |
-
The models 2216, 2208, 2204 can have
EIA-232, EIA-422, and EIA-485 (2-wire) communications. There are three
protocols available for the 2200 series. Modbus, EI Bisynch, and DeviceNet,
which can all be fitted in the field.
-
The models 2416, 2408, 2404,2408i can
have EIA-232, EIA-422, and EIA-485 (2-wire) communications. There are four
protocols available for the 2400 series. Modbus, EI Bisynch, DevicNet and
Profibus. These are modules, which can be fitted in the field.
-
Note: The Profibus is only available
on the 2408, 2408i, 2404 which must be specified when ordering (2408f,
2408I/AP, 2404f).
|
| 6)
How many digital inputs are available on the series 2000? |
| 2132 and 2116 = Logic output can
be used as an alarm acknowledge. 2108i = One digital input for alarm acknowledge.
2216, 2208, 2204 = Two digital inputs standard on 2208 and 2208. Slot 2A
can be used as a digital input when fitted with a logic output board. 2416,
2408, 2404 = Two digital inputs standard on 2408 and 2404. The 2416's have
no digital inputs. |
| 7)
Which series 2000 instruments have a remote DC input option? |
| 2408,2408i, and 2404 instruments
only. The dc input can be used as a remote setpoint, Feedforward, derived
function, second PV (same specifications as main PV input), or transition
control (switches from main input to second input). The second input could
also be used as a monitor, which can trigger either a full-scale high or
full-scale low alarm. |
| 8)
What does FOP mean on the series 2000? |
| FOP stands for Forced Output Power,
which allows the instrument to go to a user set output level when switching
from automatic to manual mode. |
| 9)
Is it possible to modify the 'home display' on a series 2000 instrument? |
| Yes. The 2200e and 2400 series instrument's
have an option to customize the lower display only in the home page. The
upper display in the home page always shows the process variable and cannot
be customized. Example: The lower display on the home page can show output
power, Amps, program state, valve position, PV 2, blank etc. 2100's have
a single display which can be modified to show: Setpoint, Output Power,
Process Variable, Alarm Setpoint, Process Variable with Alarm 2, or no
display. |
| 10)
I have configured my 2000 as a motorized valve controller with a 4-20 mA
output for control. The unit is not controlling the process, what's up. |
| If the valve were controlled using
an analog signal such as a 4-20ma signal, the control would be set to PID
and would not control using the motorized valve algorithm, which uses up/down
(two output) control. |
| 11)
I have configured my series 2000 instrument for a heat/cool application
and can only get the heating to come on, what's the problem? |
| When doing a heat/cool application
with a series 2000 instrument the output list parameters must be scaled
as such: Op.Lo = -100. OP.Hi = 100. |
| 12)
When I try to change my setpoint, the lower display shows four dashes,
what am I doing wrong? |
| Verify that the display setting
is set to standard. This will be in the info list in 2400's and the home
list for 2100's and 2200's. If you are using a 2400, and are running a
program, you cannot change the setpoint until the program is reset (run
or hold light off). Also, 2400's have the ability to set the setpoint display
to read only. To access the setpoint, go to the Full list or set the setpoint
to alter in the Edit list. |
| 13)
I cannot set my setpoint above or below a particular value, what's the
problem? |
| All series 2000 controllers have
setpoint limits. The setpoint low and setpoint high define the setpoint
limits, which can be found in the setpoint list. The 2200e's and 2400's
also have a range low and range high parameter, which defines the absolute
limits of the controller (sensor inputs are limited by range of input).
Rang low and high can be found in the Input Configuration list on 2200's,
and PV Configuration list in 2400's. |
| 14)
I have made several mistakes configuring my series 2000 instrument. Is
it possible to set the instrument back to factory default values? |
-
It is not possible to set the instrument
back to default values by simply selecting an option in the controller.
-
The two options you have are to check
and enter each value manually from the installation/operation handbook
(have a sit when doing this) or to download a default clone file from iTools
by using a digital communication board (not 2100) or the configuration
adaptor, your choice.
