COMET SYSTEM T0110 Programmable Temperature Transmitter

Product Information: T0110 Transmitter

The T0110 Transmitter is a programmable temperature transmitter that provides a 4-20 mA output. All transmitter settings can be adjusted using a PC connected via the optional SP003 communication cable (not included in delivery). The Tsensor program for transmitter setting is available for free download at www.cometsystem.com and enables users to set the measured range and turn on/off the LCD display. The program also supports device adjustment, which is described in the Calibration manual.pdf file installed with the software. The TxxxxL version of the transmitter comes with a watertight male connector RSFM4 instead of a cable gland for easy connection/disconnection of the output cable, The T0110 Transmitter is designed to be installed using shielded twisted copper cable, with a maximum length of 1200m. The cable should be located indoors and not be led in parallel along power cable should be from 3.5 to 8 mm (e.g. SYKFY) for the T0110 device and for device T0110L with respect to the female connector. Shielding should not be connected at the connector side. It is essential to read the instruction manual before connecting the device, as modifications to the settings can only be made by means of a PC using the procedure described at the end of the document. Models marked TxxxxZ are non-standard versions of the transmitters, and their descriptions are not included in this manual.

Instruction manual for use of T0110 transmitter

Transmitter is designed for measurement of ambient air temperature at °C or °F. Measuring temperature sensor is non-removable instrument part. Measured temperature is displayed on LCD display. It is possible to switch OFF the LCD display. Transmitter is connected to circuitry by current loop. All transmitter setting is performed by means of the PC connected via the optional SP003 communication cable (not included in delivery). Program Tsensor for transmitter setting is available to download free at www.cometsystem.com. Program enables to set measured range and on/off the LCD display. It supports make the adjustment of the device too. This procedure is described at file „Calibration manual.pdf“ which is installed commonly with the software. Transmitter version TxxxxL with watertight male connector instead of a cable gland is designed for easy connection/disconnection of the output cable. The protection of male Lumberg connector RSFM4 is IP67. Models marked TxxxxZ are non-standard versions of the transmitters. Description is not included in this manual. Please read instruction manual before the first device connection.

Device setting from the manufacturer
Transmitter is set from the manufacturer to the following parameters: value at output I1: temperature, range 4 – 20 mA corresponds to -30 to +80 °C display: switched ON Modification of the setting is possible to do by means of the PC using procedure described at the end of this document.

Installation of the transmitter

The transmitter is designed for wall mounting. There are two mounting holes at the sides of the case. Don’t connect transmitter while power supply voltage is on. Interconnection terminals of T0110 are accessible after unscrewing four screws and removing the lid. Lace the cable through a gland at the case wall. Connect the cable to terminals with respecting the signal polarity (see figure). Terminals are self-clamping and can be opened by a suitable screwdriver. For the opening, insert the screwdriver to the upper terminal hole and lever by him. Do not remember to tighten glands and case lid with inserted packing after cables connecting. It is necessary for warranting of protection IP65. Connect the complementary female connector for T0110L transmitter in accordance with the table in Appendix A of this manual. It is recommended to use shielded twisted copper cable, a maximal length 1200m. The cable must be located at indoor rooms. The cable should not be led in parallel along power cabling. Safety distance is up to 0.5 m, otherwise undesirable induction of interference signals can appear. Outside diameter of the cable for T0110 device must be from 3,5 to 8 mm (e.g. SYKFY), for device T0110L with respect to the female connector. Do NOT connect shielding at connector side

In the application where air flow is too low it is possible that measurement accuracy may be a bit lower (in decimals of °C) due to undesirable warm influence which develops in transmitter electronics because of its own power dissipation. Mechanical construction of the transmitter and working position is minimizing this effect, but in critical applications we recommend to use optimal value of load resistor Rz (see “Typical application wiring”). It minimizes power dissipation to minimal value. If Uss and Rz are set, it is possible to do it by inserting of suitable serial resistor into current loop at estimation device side. Electrical system (wiring) may do only worker with required qualification by rules in operation

Procedure of modification of transmitter adjustment

device adjustment is performed by means of the optional SP003 communication cable, connected to USB port of the PC.
It is necessary to have installed configuration program Tsensor on the PC. It is free to download at www.cometsystem.com. During installation please take care about installation of driver for USB communication cable.
Connect SP003 communication cable to the PC. Installed USB driver detect connected cable and create virtual COM port inside the PC.
Unscrew four screws of the device lid a remove the lid. If device is already installed to measuring system, disconnect leads from terminals.
Connect SP003 communication cable to the device. Display must light up, or at least must light up all symbols for one second (if LCD was switched OFF by program before).
Run installed Tsensor program and select corresponding communication COM port (as described above).
When new setting is saved and finished, disconnect the cable from the device, connect leads into its terminals and place the lid back to the device

Error states of the device

The device continuously checks its state during operation. In case error is found LCD displays corresponding error code:

Error 0
First line displays „Err0“. Check sum error of stored setting inside device’s memory. Output value is < 3.8 mA. This error appears if incorrect writing procedure to device’s memory occurred or if damage of calibration data appeared. At this state device does not measure and calculate values. It is a serious error, contact distributor of the instrument to fix.

Error 1
Measured value is over upper limit of allowed full scale range. There is a reading „Err1“ on LCD display. Output value is about 24.5 mA. This state appears if measured temperature is higher than approximately 600°C (i.e. high non-measurable resistance of temperature sensor, probably opened circuit).

Error 2
There is a reading „Err2“ on LCD display. Output value is about 3.8 mA. Measured value is below lower limit of allowed full scale range. This state appears if measured temperature is lower than approximately -210°C (i.e. low resistance of temperature sensor, probably short circuit).

Error 3
There is a reading „Err3“ on LCD display upper line. Error of internal A/D converter appeared (converter does not respond, probably damage of A/D converter). No measurements proceed. Output value is about 3.8 mA. It is a serious error, contact distributor of the instrument.

End of operation
Device itself (after its life) is necessary to liquidate ecologically!
