1.1 Control Module
The DS600 control module, being sealed, offers flexibility in mounting. Once installed, the
system can be quickly and easily brought on-line. Calibration is achieved through the simple
press of a push-button switch on the front panel or a remote contact closure connected to the
CAL terminal. System status and faults are reported on a four digit numeric display and are
signaled through the FAULT output that may be connected to a PLC or system controller.
The DS600 control module comes in three variations which differ in available features. The
three variations are designated DS600 (basic), DS600P, and DS600PC. All variants share a
common footprint and utilize the P80T30 probe. All models offer the following features:
•Sealed polycarbonate enclosure
•Four digit digital display
•LED indicator for ACCEPT
•LED indicator for REJECT
•User selection of the gauging mode, single/double or part present
•User selection of the response to a no-metal condition, REJECT or ACCEPT
•Front panel pushbutton switch to invoke calibration and parameter adjustment
•Isolated sinking or sourcing logic inputs, CAL and RESET
•Remote initiation of calibration through the CAL input
•Remote reset of the latched REJECT output through the RESET input
•Isolated sinking or sourcing logic outputs, ACCEPT, REJECT, FAULT and AUX
•One and two point thickness calibration
•At least one non-volatile calibration memory
•Single/Double gauging tolerance parameter HtoL, adjustable through the front panel
•Part present gauging tolerance parameter toL, adjustable through the front panel
The DS600P control module offers these additional features:
•“Under” condition sensing with tolerance set through parameter Ltol
•Delay of under condition reporting through delay parameter Udly
•Up to eight non-volatile calibration memories
•Selection of up to 8 calibration memories through the front panel parameter SEL (1-8)
•Logic inputs SEL0, SEL1, SEL2, and ENABLE for selection of the calibration memory
from a remote switch or controller
The DS600PC control module offers these added features:
•Up to 64 non-volatile calibration memories
•Selection of up to 64 calibration memories through the front panel parameter SEL (1-64)
•Selection of the first eight calibration memories through terminals SEL0, SEL1, SEL2
and ENABLE
•Modbus communications through an M12 connector providing access to:
oThe DIP switch settings
o64 calibration memories, select and read-back
oThe gauging signal value
oThe four digit display information as text
