Dwyer SPPM-C Series Smart Programmable Panel Meter
DIMENSION
The Series SPPM-C Smart Programmable Panel Meter is a configurable, full-color display that can be used in a variety of applications. Utilizing a USB connection, the panel meter can be configured with downloadable software, using any computer running Windows® based software. Available with a 2.4˝, 2.8˝ or 3.5˝ screen that features remarkable graphics which can easily be customized to read and/or graph pressure, temperature, humidity, gas concentration, or many other parameters. A single 0-50 mA current input is used to feed the display. The Series SPPM-C includes a gasket and mounting clip for quick installation into a panel.

- Place the gasket around the bezel of the display.
- Slide the display through the front hole in the panel or enclosure.
- Attach the mounting clip from the rear as shown in Figure 1.
Wiring
The Series SPPM-C uses a programmable gain amplifier (PGA) to offer the
highest possible resolution on the meter. The 4-20 mA input is restricted to
the 0-2.5 resolution voltage range.
The input voltage range is decided by the software based on the range the user
enters in the scaling section. Software uses the smallest voltage range that
accomodates both voltages entered by user.
NOTICE It and I- share a common ground (ie: not floating or isolated from each other).
The Series SPPM-C requires a fully floating power supply with respect to the current loop. This supply should be isolated from the current loop.
- NC Do not connect
- I+ Positive connection from current loop
- I- Negative connection from current loop
- V+ Positive power supply connection (4-30 VDC)
Current Consumption
The current consumption of the panel meter is voltage dependent.
USB Connection
A USB cable is required for customization of the Series SPPM. When connected to a PC’s USB port, the display is powered by the PC.
NOTICE Launch the software before plugging in the smart panel meter.
Pin Connection
The DIL IDC socket is an alternative to using the screw terminals. This
connection can also be utilized for data busses and alarm outputs. See Figure
3 for the pin layout.
Downloading Software
Customization software is available at www.dwyer-inst.com. To download, follow these instructions:
- To begin downloading, click “Run” when prompted.
- When a security warning appears, click “Run” a second time.
- As soon as the InstallShield Wizard screen appears, follow the on-screen instructions.
- If a Windows® logo testing error appears, click “Continue Anyway” .
