Gain Based Maintenance / Spray Cleaner Setup Examples
The Gain based trigger averages the total used Gain of both transducers to activate and de-activate Relay 2.
The system uses Gain to amplify the incoming signal.
The live Gain% value is accessible as a Diagnostic on the display. Press the UP or DOWN arrow until it is
displayed on the top line:
When the system begins to use higher than normal Gain% this is an indication of potential problems within the
application, most often material build up in the chute. High volumes of build up increase the risk of a blocked
chute event.
Both modes use CleanGainHigh% to Activate Relay 2, and CleanGainLow% to de-activate Relay 2.
Setup Example - Maintenance Check Mode
• Under Relay 2, select 'Maint'ce Chk', program CleanGainHigh% to 80% and then CleanGainLow% to 60%.
The unit will switch Relay 2 when total Gain% is greater than 80%. The operator can examine the chute in
this condition and take suitable action. The system will un-switch when Gain% returns below 60%.
Setup Example - Gain Option Cleaning Mode
• In ‘Quickset’ Set ‘On Delay’ to 4.0 seconds - this will provide a 2.0 second water blast.
• In ‘Advanced’ set ‘Relay2Action to ‘GainOptCln’ with a ‘CleanGainHi’ of 80%, ‘CleanGainLo’ of 70% and
‘Clean Timer’ to 5.0min.
• This will trigger the water spray for 2 seconds when Gain goes above 80%.
• The spray will repeat every 5 minutes until Gain goes below 70%.
• You can view Gain while the unit is running by using the arrow key to locate the diagnostic display.
Time Based Spray Cleaner Setup Example
The Time based trigger activates Relay 2 at every Clean Time interval for duration of 1/2 of the Relay 1 On
Delay time.
Setup Example - Time Option Cleaning Mode
• In ‘Quickset’ Set ‘On Delay’ to 4.0 seconds - this will provide a 2.0 second water blast.
• In ‘Advanced’ set ‘Relay2Action to ‘TimeOptCln’ with a ‘Clean Timer’ to 60min.
• The water spray will trigger every 60 minutes for a total of 2 seconds.
