PCE Instruments
1. Large display PCE-BPD-P
Big panel displays with impulse counter, ratemeter and periodmeter funcons
Big panel displays for long distance reading, for industrial
applicaons. Dierent formats available with 4 and 6 digits,
with 60 mm and 100 m digit height. Front keypad to access
the conguraon menu, and oponal remote keypad.
Instruments with 5 impulse counter modes (see secon
1.13.3), 2 ratemeter modes (see secon 1.13.9) and 1 peri
-
odmeter mode (see secon 1.13.9).
Highly congurable, accepts all types of sensors (NPN,
PNP, push-pull, Namur, inducve, pick-up, mechanical, TTL,
CMOS, ...) including single and bidireconal encoder signals.
Reading from 999999 to -199999 (or 9999 to -1999 for 4 digit
formats) with congurable decimal point, scalable reading
with congurable mulplier (1 to 999999) and divider factors
(1 to 999999). Includes internal pull-up and pull-down resis
-
tors, congurable trigger levels, detecon by rising or falling
edge, excitaon voltage congurable from 5 Vdc to 18 Vdc.
Output and control opons with 1, 2 and 3 relays, transis
-
tor outputs, controls for SSR relays, isolated analog outputs,
communicaons in Modbus RTU, RS-485 ASCII and RS-232.
Sturdy metal housing with full IP65 protecon. Internal
connecons by plug-in screw clamp terminals, and output
through cable glands. Housing prepared for panel, wall and
hanging mount.
• Congurable ‘Fast access’ to selected funcons with key
‘UP’ (5) (see secon 1.13.17)
• ‘On power up’ for system protecon on ‘cold’ start-up and
control of alarm status (see secon 1.13.18)
• ‘FAST’ mode for fast counter applicaons (see secon
1.13.3)
• ‘SLOW’ mode for ratemeters applicaons at low frequen
-
cies (slow applicaons) (see secon 1.13.9)
• Easy conguraon for most usual sensors at the ‘SnSr /
Auto’ menu (see secon 1.13.14)
• alarms with 1 or 2 setpoints, independent acvaon and
deacvaon delays, hysteresis, manual unlocking, ... (see
secon 1.13.15)
Mulple display lters, memory of maximum and minimum
reading, password protecon, 5 brightness levels.
1. Idenfy the instrument format (see secon 1.4)
2. Power and signal connecons
- open the instrument (see secon 1.5)
- connect the power (see secon 1.7)
- connect the signal (see secon 1.8)
- close the instrument (see secon 1.5)
3. Congure the instrument (see secon 1.13)
- select the main funcon, and the decimal point posion
(see secon 1.13.2)
- congure the main funcon selected (see secon 1.13.2)
• counter modes from secon 1.13.3
• ratemeter and periodmeter from secon 1.13.9
- congure the sensor (see secon 1.13.13)
1.1 How to use this manual
If this is the rst me you are conguring big panel display,
below are the steps to follow to install and congure the in-
strument. Read all the manual secons in order to have a
full and clear view of the characteriscs of the instrument.
Do not forget to read the installaon precauons at secon
1.17.
4. Advanced conguraon (oponal)
- congure the instrument alarms (see secon 1.13.15)
- congure the fast access (see secon 1.13.17), ‘on power
up’ (1.13.18), key ‘LE’ (1.13.19) and password (1.13.26)
