Alarm capabilities

By programming specific settings in the Elite, you define what conditions constitute an alarm and what action to perform when an alarm condition occurs. Actions supported by the Elite include:

Calling phone and cell phones to deliver a user-specified alarm message.

Calling pagers and alphanumeric pagers to provide alarm messages in digital and textual forms.

Sending faxes that show the current state of all channels.

Setting relays for local control or alarm annunciation.

As people are informed of alarm conditions, they have the option to acknowledge the alarm, thus telling the Elite that the condition is understood and will be addressed.

As a remote monitoring system, the Elite allows you to call-in at any time and inquire about the status and current value of any or all conditions being monitored.

So, the Elite is your complete 24-hour a day, 7-day a week monitoring and notification system that allows you to turn your operations into unattended operations!

Control capabilities

The DiaLog Elite is a complete stand-alone controller capable of turning relays on and off based on a number of conditions.

•

User Guide.

Operating Environment

The Elite should be installed in an environment that is not subject to shock or vibration. The operating temperature of the Elite is -40 to 150ºF (-40 to 66ºC).

If the Elite is going to be operating at temperatures below the operating temperature, we recommend that controlled heaters or heat strips be installed to keep the temperature adequately warm. Contact your local distributor, representative or the factory for additional information

3

Mounting the Equipment

WARNING!

Ì

A lock must be installed securing the cover to prevent non-service trained personnel from gaining access to the internal electrical circuitry of the Elite.

The Elite is available in a NEMA 4X enclosure or panel/flush mount enclosure. The NEMA 4X enclosure, which can be mounted indoors or outdoors.

Fiberglass NEMA Enclosure

11.83

8.25

6.56

Figure 1 Fiberglass NEMA 4X Enclosure

Panel Mount Enclosure

Figure 2 - Panel Enclosure Mounting Dimensions

4

To mount the enclosure:

1.

Mount the unit using the six wall-mounting holes on the outside edge of the enclosure.

2.

Use mounting hardware appropriate for the type of wall surface, and be sure the hardware and the surface are strong enough to handle the weight of the unit (25 lbs.).

Main Power Connection

The Elite operates on 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. Using 1.5A at 115VAC or 0.7A at 230VAC. There are no selections required by the user to select the input power. The main AC is connected to the Elite using the AC terminal block located inside the unit.

The terminal block is labeled L=Line (black), G=Ground (green or green/yellow), N=Neutral (white)

Figure 3 - AC power wiring

For the NEMA enclosure, you must drill an access hole to bring the wires into the unit. The access hole should be drilled on either the bottom or side of the enclosure.

WARNING!

Ì

Be sure to look inside the unit prior to drilling so that you can be sure there is sufficient clearance for the hole and the fitting that you are using.

AC Wire Size

The AC line wire should be 16 AWG or heavier wire.

Proper Grounding

Elite must be earth-grounded by connecting a true earth ground to the ground terminal designated by the

N

OTE

symbol.

The Ground (green or green/yellow) wire should be made at least 2 inches longer than the other wires as a safety precaution in the event that the line cord is pulled out of the unit.

The Elite can be damaged by power surges and lightning through the telephone line and power supply. Although the

Elite has built-in surge protection, we strongly recommend that additional protection be obtained for the unit and for any electronic equipment that is attached to your power supply and telephone lines. Power surge protection is

5

especially important if you live in a lightning-prone area. Contact your sales representative, distributor or Antx for additional information on surge protection offerings.

N

OTE

Lightning damage is not covered under warranty.

CAUTION a

Failure to supply a good earth ground for the AC power causes the Elite’s internal surge and lightning protection to be ineffective.

Optional DC Power Connection

For applications where standard AC power is not available, the DiaLog Elite can be powered by an external DC power source. The system operates exactly the same with the exception of the following:

DC power source Elite operation

15-24 VDC Same as with AC

12-24 VDC Same as with AC except the supplied backup battery is not charged by the

Elite

To connect an external 15 to 24 VDC supply, disconnect the 3-wire harness from the processor board and then unscrew the three (3) wires from the plug and attach your supply.

Using this plug, wire in the external DC supply as shown below:

Earth

Figure 4 - Wiring an external DC supply

Strain Relief

It is highly recommended that you install strain relief fittings for all AC or DC lines, phone cord and I/O wiring.

Power Fuse

The AC to DC power supply has a small fuse near the AC input that may blow if the input AC current or voltage exceeds specifications.

If no lights on the Elite turn on when the power switch is put in the ON position, this fuse should be checked. Be sure to disconnect the Elite from the primary power source prior to checking this fuse.

If the fuse is blown, it can be replaced with a GFE 4A 250V.

Phone Line Connection

The phone line connector is located on the left-hand side of the door after you swing it open.

6

WARNING!

Ì

To ensure proper safety, the Earth Ground must be attached prior to connection of the phone line to the Elite by trained service personnel.

Turning on the Elite

The power switch for the DiaLog Elite is located on the processor board mounted on the back of the front panel. To turn the power on, open the front panel and move the slide switch (SW1) to the on position.

The Elite powers up under either primary power +VS (24VDC) or battery backup VBAT (12VDC). When the power is turned on, the Elite runs power up diagnostics to confirm operation of all standard and optional components.

Figure 5 - Elite board connections

7

Verifying Battery Backup Connection

The Elite has either a 12V 7AH or 5.5AH sealed lead-acid rechargeable battery. This provides approximately 24 hours of backup time with the unit fully configured. Actual backup time depends upon the temperature, battery age, and dialing activity. The battery comes pre-wired with the red wire attached to the +VBAT terminal and the black wire attached to the –VBAT terminal.

(replacment battery part number is EBAT001 for 7AH or EBAT002 for 5.5AH)

The Elite automatically charges the battery whenever the power switch is turned on. The unit also includes special circuitry to prevent the battery from being damaged in the event of an extended power outage. When the battery runs down to 9V, the unit automatically disconnects it, preventing deep-discharge damage. The battery remains disconnected until it charges back up to

12.3 volts. The battery provides at least two (2) years of service before needing replacement.

When the Elite is being powered by the backup battery, the LEDs and display are put into a ‘dimmed’ mode to conserve power.

The main motherboard also includes a 3V lithium battery to maintain the real-time clock and portions of the SRAM memory.

Each battery provides ten (10) years of use. If the date and time in the Elite are not retained when power is turned off then on, the battery needs replacing. (replacement battery part is EBAT010)

Verification of the backup battery being properly connected is accomplished by requesting the status of the System Channel for the battery, channel 202/502.

WARNING!

Ì

Caution

Risk of explosion if battery is replaced with incorrect type.

Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

System Channels

There are a few channels that are always present in each system. These are referred to as System Channels. They behave just like other Modbus channels, and can be modified as desired.

Channel

Number

Name

201/501 Primary Power Monitors the primary 15VDC power supplied to the main processor board.

202/502 Battery Power Monitors the battery backup power.

- Goes into alarm when primary power is lost for 30 seconds.

- Limits are 20.0 and 27.0

- No Relay List is set

- Goes into alarm when low battery voltage is detected for 120 seconds.

- Limits are 10.0 and 14.0



204/504 if the phone Channel Mode is not disabled.

Temperature Monitors the on-board temperature. - Status Only (no alarming)

- Limits are 5.0 and 70.0 C


- Alarm Delay is 60 seconds


206/506 Communication Monitors Modbus RTU Master communications to Slave devices. If communication is lost for a period of time, then this channel and other Modbus channels go into alarm.

NOTE: Typical causes for going into alarm are: wrong baud rate, wrong Modbus ID or register number, disconnected cable.

Modbus Channel Numbering

When the Elite is a Modbus Master, channels are ‘logical’ instead of physical. Modbus channels are numbered from 1 to 200 or 500.

If the Elite is a Modbus Master and there is a communications error with reading a channel, then channel 06 (Communications channel) goes into alarm if the Channel Mode is Call on Alarm and the Alarm Delay has expired.

The “Id:” field displays the Modbus IDs that cannot be read. (for example, channels using IDs 23 and 201)

An alarm on channel 03, the Phone channel, indicates that when the Elite checked for a dial-tone it did not find a dial-tone.

Acknowledging Alarms

Alarms can only be acknowledged from RUN mode. They can be acknowledged in three ways:

•

Locally using the keypad,

•

Remotely when an alarm message call-out is received,

•

If an Ack input channel has been designated, or

•

Remotely by calling into the Elite.

In all cases, when an alarm is acknowledged no further call-outs are made to inform people or systems that alarm conditions exist.

From the Front Panel

Ack

At the front panel, press the

Clear

key to acknowledge a channel that is in alarm. All channels that are in alarm are acknowledged at the same time. The Red blinking LED channel indicator changes to Red steady On, indicating that the specific channel is still in alarm, but has been acknowledged.

Remotely when Called

When you receive an alarm notification call at a remote telephone, Elite delivers the message, “Please acknowledge”, and waits 5 seconds for you to enter

*

,

8

or

9 .

(Acknowledge).

N

OTE

Wait until Elite has finished speaking to acknowledge the call. If Elite does not receive an

Acknowledge signal, it repeats, “Please acknowledge” and waits another 5 seconds. It repeats this message sequence and then hangs up and waits for a return call.

If Elite receives an Acknowledge signal, it says, “Alarms acknowledged”, beeps three times and waits 5 seconds for you to press ENTER to begin programming. Your

* , 8

.

or 9 signal acknowledges only the alarm message(s) you received. On the other hand, if Call In Acknowledge is enabled, a return call during the Between Calls Delay acknowledges alarms as specified by the Call in Acknowledge settings.

Acknowledge input channel

If an Acknowledge Input Channel has been specified, then alarms are acknowledged when this input goes to the nonnormal condition.

Remotely when Calling In

Depending on the setting of Call in Acknowledge, the Elite allows you to acknowledge all alarms or specific alarms.

23

How to Prevent the DiaLog Elite from Calling Out (Disarming)

When personnel are performing maintenance on equipment being monitored by the Elite, it is desired to prevent the Elite from calling out alarms or activating relays.

This is accomplished by Disarming the Elite by pressing the

Disarm

Bksp

key on the local keypad.

When the Elite is in RUN mode, pressing

* 4

on your phone handset toggles the ARM/DISARM setting. The Elite responds by saying either “System is disarmed” or “System is armed”.

The Elite continues to process alarms, illuminate LEDs, write to the Event Log and answer call-ins, but it does not initiate any call outs. Alarms are not called out, and Status Notification calls are not made.

Relays can be activated when the Elite is Disarmed from the following methods:

•

Activate Relay Command – either locally or remotely

•

Activation from a Modbus command from another DiaLog Elite or from a SCADA package.

N

OTE

The Disarm to Arm Delay can be used to specify an amount of time that the Elite stays

Disarmed until it is automatically returned to Armed mode.

Program Phone Settings

Every channel in the Elite, except the Phone Fault, has a telephone list associated with it. To call-out to a phone or cell phone when an alarm occurs, you enter the number of the Telephone List that you want to use for that specific alarm.

By default, all channels are configured to use Telephone List 1, but you can change that as needed to any of the 8 lists.

The referenced Telephone List has up to 8 numbers for the Primary times of day and 8 numbers for the Secondary times of day.

Each day can be divided into two parts: one part uses the Primary phone numbers, and the other part uses the Secondary phone numbers.

Telephone List has 8 List Positions. To call a phone or cell phone, simply enter the phone number into the List Position desired.

The phone number can include delays, waiting for a dial-tone and any key that can be pressed on a telephone keypad. Each phone number can be up to 40 numbers/characters in length.

Chapter 6: Modbus RTU Master

Overview

The Modbus Master Interface enables the Elite to read input values from a Modbus sensor, PLC or Modbus Slave device and write relay control values to a Modbus sensor, PLC or Modbus Slave device. The connection uses the RS-232/485 serial connector on the Elite. The protocol is Modbus RTU, where the Elite is the Master and the Modbus sensors, PLC or Modbus I/O is the Slave.

The I/O in the Modbus Slave can be any combination of analog (holding registers) or digital points (coils).

Values that are read from the Modbus Slave are interpreted by the Elite the same as if they were physical I/O in the Elite. All the alarm and control logic within the Elite operate on data coming from Modbus registers.

The communications link between the Elite and the Modbus slave devices is monitored several times a second. If the communications link stops functioning after repeated attempts, a Communications Channel (06) alarm is initiated. This alarm is treated exactly like any other system alarm allowing the system to call out, drive local relay or issue reports.

Port 1 can be used as an RS-232 connection (DB9) or as a RS-485 connection (3-position plug).

The RS-232 port is configured as a DTE device

Pin 2 RCV Pin 3 XMT Pin 5 GND

Mapping Elite Channels to Modbus Registers

I/O channels in the Elite are mapped to Modbus registers by providing three (3) pieces of information:

•

Modbus ID – ID of the Modbus Slave

•

Register type – which corresponds to Function Code

•

Register number – number of the register for the particular Function Code

All of these items are entered in the Channel Configuration ( Function 9) section for each individual channel.

Chapter 7: Modbus RTU Slave

Overview

The Modbus RTU interface allows the Elite to become a Modbus Slave device to communicate with any product that supports the Modbus Master protocol.

The Modbus Slave interface allows the SCADA/HMI software to write information into the Elite from:

• a direct connection via an RS-232 port

• a direct connect to the secondary RS-232 port if the Elite is also a Modbus Master or,

• over a modem.

The information available to the SCADA/HMI software is:

•

Write current analog (sensor) channel values

•

Write current digital channel states (open/closed)

Modbus Slave ID

The default Slave ID is 126. This is adjustable from the Serial Port Menu (depending on which port is going to be used)

Register Mapping

The Elite channels must be mapped to Modbus registers in order for the Elite to correctly receive the alarm information from the

Master.

Elite channels are configured exactly as if it were reading as a Modbus Master, except the ID is set to 0, to indicate that it is reading from itself.

For example,

Master writing a Coil to register 2020 and Elite channel 15 reads that coil, the settings would be as follows:

Elite Channel number

15

ID

Register Type

Register Number

0 (read internally)

1 - Rd Coil (see page 67)

2020 (Master writes to this register using a Write Coil)

NOTE: Typically, users map the Elite channel number to the same register number to make it easier to understand. i.e. Elite channel 123 would read from internal register 2123, whether it is a Coil or a Holding.

The following details the registers that the external Master writes into the Elite.

Abort Phone Call

Access Code

Pressing the HOME key while a call is in progress will immediately cancel the call.

A 4-digit code that can be entered to prevent any unauthorized personnel from entering the Programming Mode.

NOTE: When entering Programming Mode, either locally or remotely, the access code must be entered.

Acknowledge Alarms

Locally:

Press the ACK key on the keypad while the Elite is in RUN mode.

When Called:

At a remote telephone, when you receive an alarm notification call, Elite delivers the message, says “Please acknowledge”, and waits 5 seconds for you to enter the 8,

9 or * to acknowledge an alarm.

Acknowledge Input Channel

AK

AL

If is not necessary to listen to the entire message before acknowledging the alarm.

You may enter the

8

,

or

*

at any time.

If the Elite does receive an acknowledgement it immediately responds with “Alarm acknowledged. You have 60 minutes to clear the alarm”, beeps three (3) times and waits 5 seconds for you to press

#

to enter the programming mode. You may program the Redial after Acknowledge Delay for another value other than 60 minutes.

If Elite does not receive an acknowledgment key, it repeats “Please acknowledge” and waits another 5 seconds. It repeats this message sequence and then hangs up and waits for a return call or goes to the next phone number in the list.

When Calling In:

If a person calls in to the Elite while any alarms are active, the alarms are acknowledged according the Call In Acknowledge setting. (Page 56)

NOTE: When alarms are acknowledged, any alarm notification call-outs are stopped.

A digital input channel can be used to acknowledge alarms. When this channel goes into the non-Normal condition, it will acknowledge all active alarms.

Shown on the display and in reports. Indicates the channel is in alarm and has been acknowledged.

Alarm Calls

Alarm Code

Alarm Delay

When an alarm call is made from the Elite, the process is as follows:

1. Elite waits for a 3-second Alarm Delay period to make sure the channel is actually in alarm, and then begins alarm call-outs. The Alarm Delay period can be adjusted.

2. The front panel alarm indicator for the channel in alarm begins to blink red and the PHONE STATUS indicator goes steady green , indicating Phone Off Hook.

3. Elite automatically dials the first number on Primary Telephone List 1, although you can program the system to dial a different list of numbers. You can program up to 8 lists of 9 numbers and assign each digital input channel to any one of the lists. This way, you can direct target alarms to specific destinations. For example, you can direct cooling and heating failures to your mechanics, hazardous material leakage to emergency teams, and intrusion alarms to security. Alarms are prioritized by their Telephone List number, with

List 1 the highest and List 8 the lowest.

4. Elite rings the first number on the Telephone List for up to 60 seconds. If the line is busy or the telephone is not answered during the 60-second period, the system dials the second number. It repeats this sequence until someone answers. If you want Elite to redial a busy number, you can enable the Redial

When Busy feature. Then the Elite tries a number twice before it moves on to the next number on the list.

5. When the call is answered, Elite identifies itself, delivers the message for the channel in alarm, and says “Please acknowledge.” It repeats this sequence three times. You can change the number of Message Repeats.

6. The person answering the call acknowledges the alarm by pressing the

*

or

8

or

9

key on a Touch-Tone telephone within 5 seconds after Elite requests an acknowledgement.

The Elite uses alarm codes on the display, status reports and alphanumeric pager alarms to indicate the condition of an alarm or input

OP – open on a digital input

CL – closed on a digital input

CM – communication alarm on a Modbus input/output

OL – open-loop condition on an analog input

LO – low limit alarm on an analog input

HI – high limit alarm on an analog input

The amount of consecutive seconds an input needs to exceed a Limit before it goes into alarm. [0-65535 seconds] (default is 3 seconds)

Channel LED blinks green during this time.

52

Alarm Mode 0 This mode defines a normal region that is above the Low Limit and below the High

Limit.

Alarm Mode 2 This mode defines a normal region that is above a Low and High Limit. The Low

Limit is below the High Limit.

53

Alarm Mode 3 This mode defines a normal region that is below a Low and above a High Limit.

Alarm Mode 4 This mode defines 2 normal operating regions, one above a High Alarm Limit and one below a Low Alarm Limit.

Alarm Screen

Alarm State

When any channel goes into an alarm state, the display is automatically changed to show the current conditions of those channels. The user has the option to Pause on a channel of interest to view all relays which are being controlled by that channel.

When a sensors value exceeds a Low or High Limit, the channel goes into an Alarm

State. When these transitions occur, Relay Lists can be controlled. Specify what condition you want the relay to assume when these transitions occur.

0 – Deenergized 1 – Energized 2 – No change (disabled)

54

Alarm Types

Alpha pager call

Arm

Audio Settings

Input alarms are generated from either Digital Inputs or Analog Inputs.

The Digital Inputs have three types of alarms:

•

Contact closure (or open)

Analog Inputs have 2 types of alarms:

•

High limit

•

Low limit

Each of these alarms is independent of the other.

Alphanumeric pager calls are made to modems at the pager company. The Elite communicates to the pager company utilizing the TAP protocol.

To call out to an alphanumeric pager, put the AlphaPager code

( * 5

.

)

at any position in the phone number. The Elite calls the number and, when answered, delivers the following message:

(Alphanumeric System Identification) (Channel Name)

(Alarm Code) (Current analog value) (Analog engineering units)

A telephone list entry for an alphanumeric pager phone number includes the:

(pager company modem number) (*5) (alphanumeric pager ID)

The

* 5

tells the Elite to wait until a connection to the pager company’s modem is made before issuing the alphanumeric pager ID.

Be sure you confirm with the pager company your actual pager ID. Some systems use a 7-digit code, some an 8-digit code with the first digit always being 0, and others have a 10-digit code.

ARMed mode is signified by a green RUN LED. In this mode the Elite is monitoring all inputs and performing all alarm functions.

The standard 12 VDC internal backup battery maintains operating power to Elite for a minimum of 24 hours at 86

°F in case of primary power loss. The switchover to battery operation is automatic; no operator intervention or reprogramming is required.

An alarm notification call alerts the first available person on the telephone list specified for the Power Fail Alarm with the message, “Channel 0 is in alarm; system on battery backup.”

The POWER STATUS indicator on the front panel changes from a steady green light to a blinking red light, indicating that the system is now on battery power and the Primary Power alarm has not yet been acknowledged.

If the battery charge drops below a certain level, the message “System battery is low” is delivered in the System Status report, and the BATTERY STATUS indicator blinks red, indicating that the Low Battery alarm is active and has not yet been acknowledged.

While primary power is available, the BATTERY STATUS indicator blinks green when the internal battery is charging. The battery requires 20 hours to recharge completely.

If the battery fails to take a charge while the system is operating from primary power, the System Status report includes the message, “System battery is bad.”

When you hear this message, we strongly recommend that you replace the battery.

Channel 202 – monitors the backup battery voltage. This voltage is typically

12VDC. Low and High alarm limits can be specified for alarm relay activation or call outs. The battery is automatically charged when necessary. The Battery LED indicates if the battery is fully charged (green), being charged (green blinking), or in alarm (red and red blinking).

The serial port baud rate for communication as a Modbus Master, Slave or a diagnostics/programming port.

The amount of time to wait after completing this call until the next phone number is dialed. [0-3600 seconds] (default is 30 seconds)

Indicates the channel has an un-acknowledged alarm.

Determines if alarms are acknowledged when a person calls into the Elite.

0 – Disabled – alarms are not acknowledged on call in

1 – Automatic (default) – all alarms are acknowledged on call in

2 – Acknowledge all – asks if alarms should be acknowledged on call in

3 – Acknowledge specific – asks for which phone list of alarms to acknowledge

If Call Progress is enabled (1), the Elite waits until the phone has been answered before delivering the alarm message.

If disabled (0), the Elite calls the number, waits the Call Progress Delay number of seconds and then delivers the alarm message.

The maximum amount of time the Elite waits for another character to be received after the last one was received.

The maximum amount of time the Elite waits for a response when it transmits a message.

Number of times to repeat the alarm message during an alarm call out.

[1-20] (default is 2)

A value between 1 and 247 to uniquely identify each Slave device.

The Elite can act as a Modbus Master through the serial RS-232/RS-485 port. Ports

2 or 3 can be used for the Master.

When this option is enabled, the Elite acts as a Modbus Master to read/write registers from one or more Modbus Slave devices.

Set to 1 for Modbus block mode to be enabled. The Elite requests data to be read as efficiently as possible by requesting multiple values be returned from a single read request.

Set to 0 for Modbus single mode to be enabled. The Elite requests data to be read one value at a time.

NOTE: With Block mode set. For example, if the Elite is configured to read from register 10 to register 1500, the Elite will request ALL of the registers in between 10 and 1500. If the Slave unit does not have all of those registers available, there will be Modbus Communication errors generated. The result is the CM error will flash on the display when these invalid registers are read.

The Elite can act as a Modbus Slave through the serial ports 1, 2 or 3.

All current values in the Elite can be read from an external Modbus Master.

This functionality is configured in the Serial Port Setup for ports 1, 2 or 3.

Set the Mode = 2 (Slave), Baud rate and Maximum Idle Time.

Used on Digital Inputs to set the Normal, or not in alarm, condition of the input.

When the input changes from this normal condition, the channel goes into the alarm state.

If enabled (1), when this call is successfully made, it is not called again for this alarm condition. This is typically set for fax calls so that only one fax report is received per alarm condition.

To call-out to a pager, put the Pager code (*7) at any position in the phone number.

The Elite calls the number and when answered delivers the System Identification number followed by the number(s) of the channel(s) in alarm. This message is delivered using DTMF, or Touch-Tone, tones instead of a voice message.

If Channel 17 were in alarm, the message on the pager would be: 4337676-17

If Channels 17, 18 and 34 were in alarm, the message on the pager would be:

4337676-17-18-34.

The numbers are sent just once (the Message Repeat parameter is not applicable).

Channel 203/503 – monitors the phone line automatically every 2 hours for a dialtone. If no dialtone is detected, the Phone Fault light is turned red and a relay may be activated.

Automatic dial-tone checking can be eliminated by setting the Channel Mode to

Disabled (0).

While in RUN Mode, the Elite automatically checks to see if a dialtone exists every

2 hours. If it does exist, then the Elite returns to RUN Mode

If there is no dial-tone, then the Phone channel (03) goes into alarm and the Phone

LED is lit Red.

The Phone channel can be disabled by setting the Channel Mode to Disabled (0)

To manually perform a Phone Check, press the Phone key (4) while in RUN Mode.

Displayed on the RUN Mode display and the Alarm Screen when the Elite has detected a no-dialtone condition on the phone line. The Elite automatically checks for a dialtone every 2 hours if the Phone channel (03) Channel Mode is Status

Only. If the Channel Mode is Disabled, the dialtone check is not performed.

A number between 1 and 8 to identify a specific list of phone numbers are to be used for alarm calls.

Phone List 1 is the highest priority, meaning that if channels are in alarm and some use Phone List 1 and some other Phone Lists, then Phone List 1 is satisfied before any of the other Phone List calls.

By default, each input uses Phone List 1.

A number between 1 and 9 within a specific Phone List. These phone numbers are called in order from 1 through 9 until the alarm condition no longer exists or the alarm is acknowledged.

When making a call to the Elite, the Elite goes through a simple process to verify that you are a person and not a computer. If you press a key on your phone during the initial 5 second period after hearing “Press any key to continue”, the Elite assume you are a person and speaks the Status of the Elite.

Enter a starting hour and minute that the Primary Phone List is to be used.

There are 2 types of phone lists in the Elite, Primary and Secondary. The purpose of the 2 lists is to provide a way to have different phone numbers called at different times of day.

If you are going to call the same phone numbers 24/7, then you only need to put phone numbers into the Primary List.

8 lists of phone numbers that are used for alarm calls after the Primary List Start

Time has passed.

If no Primary or Secondary List Start Times have been specified, this Primary

Phone List is always used for alarm calls.

Channel 201/501 – monitors the primary power to the main processor board. This power is typically 24VDC. Low and High alarm limits can be specified for alarm relay activation or call outs. The Primary Power LED indicates if the battery is fully charged (green), being charged (green blinking), or in alarm (red and red blinking).

In this mode the user can make modifications to any and all settings.

NOTE: RUN mode must be entered after making programming changes for those changes to be saved permanently.

NOTE: While in PROGRAM Mode, relays are activated when conditions warrant, but alarm calls are not made.

The Elite automatically returns to the Run mode after this length of time.

[1-1440 minutes] (default is 60 minutes)

An amount of time that a Coil stays energized. [0 – 86400 seconds] (default is 0)

Another condition can override this and de-energize the coil.

When alarms are acknowledged, the Elite automatically starts the alarm call out sequence after this delay if the current alarm conditions still exist. If other alarms occur before this delay expires, alarm calls are performed immediately.

Redial the same phone number one more time if the number was busy.

A valid Modbus register number from 1 to 9999.

Some PLCs refer to registers as a combination of the Register Type and the Register

Number. For example, a PLC may reference register 40100. In the Elite, this would be a Read Holding and Register Number 100.

Specifies the rate that the Elite reads the Modbus Slave that is connected to the

Elite. The range is from 1 to 300 seconds.

NOTE: This is only written to permanent memory when the Elite is put into RUN mode. If you do not want to reset the system, turn the Elite off before returning to

RUN mode.

Specifies the number of phone rings before the Elite answer the call.

Port 1 can be used as either a RS-232 or RS-485 connection. If RS-485 is enabled, then the 3-position connector on the top-back of the large processor board (location

J17) is used for communication.

NOTE: Do not connect to both the RS-232 and the RS-485.

In this mode the Elite is monitoring all inputs and performing all alarm functions.

NOTE: This mode must be entered after making programming changes for those changes to be saved permanently.

If the value read from the Modbus Slave device is already in engineering units, then set this value to 0.

If the value needs to be scaled, then enter 1 followed by the:

- Zero Scale – minimum value in engineering units

- Full Scale – maximum value in engineering units

- Min Counts – minimum value read from Slave

- Max Counts – maximum value read from Slave

If set to 0, then the value that is entered by the user is NOT scaled prior to sending to the Slave unit. The value entered is in counts.

If set to 1, then the user must enter

- Zero Scale – minimum value in engineering units

- Full Scale – maximum value in engineering units

- Min Counts – minimum value read from Slave

- Max Counts – maximum value read from Slave

When the user enters a value to be sent to the Slave unit, it is converted from engineering units to counts and then sent to the Slave unit.

There are 2 types of phone lists in the Elite, Primary and Secondary. The purpose of the 2 lists is to provide a way to have different phone numbers called at different times of day.

If you are going to call the same phone numbers 24/7, then you only need to put phone numbers into the Primary List.

If you are going to call different phone numbers based on time of day, then some numbers will go in the Primary list and the others in the Secondary list.

See the Telephone List Schedule page 72 for details on how the Elite switches from the Primary List to the Secondary List.

8 lists of phone numbers that are used for alarm calls after the Secondary List Start

Time has passed.

If no Secondary List Start Times have been specified, the Primary Phone List is always used for alarm calls.

The Elite has 3 serial ports, Port 1, 2 and 3. Port is the modem. Ports 2 and 3 are

DB9 connectors if using RS-232,or a single 6-pin pluggable connector is using RS-

485.

The RS-232 port is a 9-pin connector located on the back of the large processor board. It can be used to communicate with Modbus Slave devices either via direct connection of using radio modems.

Any of the ports can be used to program the Elite when they are enabled as a

Diagnostics port. (Port Mode = 1)

Numeric ID

Alphanumeric ID specific Elite.

A 20 digit value that is automatically sent to pagers on alarms.

A 20 character name that is shown on reports, faxes and alphanumeric pagers to identify the specific Elite.

The Elite supports a total of 8 phone lists arranged in a priority fashion. Phone List

1 is the highest priority, 2 is second and so on.

Each input channel references a Telephone List to call when it goes into alarm. If more than one channel is in alarm at the same time, then the channels which use the highest priority Telephone List are called first and must be acknowledged before the next highest priority Telephone List is called.

If a Telephone List has no phone numbers, then no calls are made.

Enter a list number between 1 and 8.

To call a phone or cell phone, simply enter the phone number into the List Position desired. The phone number can include delays, waiting for a dial-tone and any key that can be pressed on a telephone keypad. Each phone number can be up to 40 numbers/characters in length. You can program up to 144 telephone numbers using all 8 lists of 9 numbers and both the Primary and Secondary lists.

Each telephone number can have up to 40 digits, including special characters.

For each telephone number, you can also program Call Delay, Notify Once and Call

Since Saturday, Sunday and Holiday are disabled, then the last time that was specified on the previous day is still valid. In the case above, the last time specified on Friday was 16:30 for the Primary Start Time. Therefore, the Primary List is active from 16:30 on Friday until the next time the Secondary List is active, which is 07:30 on Monday morning.

In the case of the Holiday, which usually occurs on Mondays, the Primary List would stay active until the Secondary List was activated, probably at 07:30 on

Tuesday morning.
