6. Autostart Operation
There are a number of parameters that must be configured for proper operation of the transducer.
These configurations can be set via
Autostart Transducer Setup
.
• Type and Range
– 4mA Scaled Value
*
Value in setup units represented by a 4mA reading
– 20mA Scaled Value
*
Value in setup units represented by a 20mA reading
– Setup Units
*
Units used to setup the 4mA and 20mA scaled values
– Display Units
*
Units that are displayed on the gauges
– Calibration Zero Offset
*
Offset to calibrate the 4mA value (plus or minus 5%)
• Low Warning Alarm
– Value in display units that will generate a Low warning
• Low Shutdown Alarm
– Value in display units that will generate a Low shutdown
• High Warning Alarm
– Value in display units that will generate a High warning
• High Shutdown Alarm
– Value in display units that will generate a High shutdown
6.6 Scheduler
Setting the ”Start/Stop with” to be ”Scheduler Only” causes the engine to be started and stopped
based on the schedule defined in
Autostart Behavior Start/Stop with Scheduler Only
.
Next set the Scheduler Method to Override by going to
Autostart Scheduler Method
. Using the
Override method will override any autostart settings.
The Scheduler mode starts and stops the engine based on time and date. Up to sixteen (16) unique
scheduled run cycles can be configured offering multiple run cycles per day, and those run cycles
can differ depending on the day of the week.
The Scheduler has another method called Allowed Times. Unlike the Override method, this method
marries the Autostart setting with the Scheduler allowing the autostart to only occur during the
allowed times. Example: With this method, the panel can be configured to only autostart on Mondays,
Wednesdays, and Fridays between the times of 12:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. Up to sixteen (16) unique
allowed times can be configured.
