CHAPTER 1_______________________________________________________ GENERAL INFORMATION CHAPTER 1 GENERAL INFORMATION Safety Throughout the manual important instructions regarding the safety considerations are focused as follows. WARNING Warning denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a procedure, practice, condition or the like, which, if not correctly performed or adhered to, could result in injury to or death of personnel. CAUTION Caution denotes a hazard.
CHAPTER 2_______________________________________________________ PRODUCT DESCRIPTION CHAPTER 2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION General characteristics The DMP248 transmitter is a microprocessor-based instrument for the measurement of dewpoint temperature in low humidities. The transmitter measures other quantities as well: relative humidity, temperature and ppm concentration (dry). When the dewpoint temperature is below 0 °C, the transmitter calculates the frostpoint instead of the dewpoint.
OPERATING MANUAL _______________________________________________________________ The operating principle of the DMP248 The DMP248 transmitter incorporates the DRYCAP® sensor which is optimized to be used in low humidities but has also an excellent tolerance against condensation. The DRYCAP® sensor uses an operating principle based on changes in capacitance as its thin polymer film absorbs water molecules together with a combined temperature measurement with a Pt 100 resistive temperature sensor.
CHAPTER 2_______________________________________________________ PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The function Pws(T) is well known from literature. Thus, it is possible to determine the offset (RH 0) if measurements are made at two or (preferably) more temperatures assuming a constant Pw during the process. 0.4 0.3 20°C RHout(%) 0.2 0.1 30°C 0 -0.1 -0.2 -0.3 0 0.005 0.01 0.015 0.02 0.025 0.03 0.035 0.04 0.045 1/Pws(T) FIGURE 2-1 Device output during hypothetical offset calibration cycle.
OPERATING MANUAL _______________________________________________________________ FIGURE 2-2 The DRYCAP sensor mounted on a DMP248 probe. Note that the auto-calibration takes place only if the DMP248 is used in ambient humidities below 10 %RH (dewpoint below -12 °C at 20 ° C) and at ambient temperature 0...+80 °C. Use in high pressure If the process pressure differs from the normal ambient pressure, the value has to be entered in the transmitter memory to ensure the best possible measurement accuracy.
CHAPTER 3_______________________________________________________________ INSTALLATION CHAPTER 3 INSTALLATION Selecting the place of installation Select a place which gives a true picture of the environment or process; also select a place that is as clean as possible. Air should circulate freely around the sensor. It is recommended that the sensor head is installed directly in the process through the ball valve assembly.

When pushing the probe head through the ball valve assembly, be careful not to break the sintered filter.
CHAPTER 3_______________________________________________________________ INSTALLATION Mounting the probe with a quick connect The probe can also be installed with a quick-connect, which acts as a closing valve between the process and the probe. The installation can be easily done even in small ducts with standard parts, and the probe is easily removed when necessary. It is necessary for the probe to be installed in the leak-through position for a reasonable response time.
OPERATING MANUAL _______________________________________________________________ Sample cell It may be necessary to use the sample cell if the process (e.g. a pipe) is too small for the DMP248 sensor head. Furthermore, if the process is very hot (>80 °C) or particularly dirty, the probe is installed in a sample cell behind a cooling coil and/or filter. In this case, the ambient temperature must be at least 10 °C warmer than the process dewpoint in order to avoid condensation in the sample tubing.

OPERATING MANUAL _______________________________________________________________ Optional installation by means of the sampling system DSS10 When the operating environment is not suitable for direct installation of the measurement probe, an alternate solution could possibly be found with the complete sampling system DSS10. The sample system allows for greater measurement accuracy and stability by controlling the temperature, pressure and filtration levels to optimize the performance of the sensor.
CHAPTER 3_______________________________________________________________ INSTALLATION Grounding A single electrical cable with a screen and three to ten wires is recommended for power and analogue output/serial bus connections. The cable diameter should be 7...10 mm. The screen of the electrical cable must be grounded properly to achieve best possible EMC performance. Recommended cable shield is done in the cable gland as shown.
OPERATING MANUAL _______________________________________________________________ • tighten the nut • connect the wires into the screw terminals and fasten a cable tie around the wires cable tie transmitter housing gland brass disks rubber ring nut NOTE When the cable is grounded as explained, the metallic parts of the sensor head, the screen of its cable, the transmitter housing and the screen of the signal cable to external system are all connected to each other.

OPERATING MANUAL _______________________________________________________________ Connection to an AC supply The DMP248 transmitter can also be connected to an AC supply without an external rectifier. However, when more than one transmitter is connected for example to one 24 VAC transformer, a common loop is formed and there is an increased risk of a shortcircuit. To avoid this, always use separate floating supply for each transmitter (see FIGURE 3-19A).
CHAPTER 4_____________________________________________________________ COMMISSIONING CHAPTER 4 COMMISSIONING When the DMP248 transmitter leaves the factory, its measurement ranges and output signals have already been selected. The user can subsequently change the measurement units between metric and nonmetric and select and scale the output signals with software functions, see Chapter Selecting and scaling the analogue output quantities and Appendix 1.
OPERATING MANUAL _______________________________________________________________ Selecting the analogue outputs CH1 CH2 The DMP248 transmitter can be ordered ready with the current or voltage outputs required. If the outputs need to be changed, move the jumpers in connector X15 into positions as shown in FIGURE 4-2.

OPERATING MANUAL _______________________________________________________________ Connecting the RS 232C serial bus RX GND TX NC X6 OPENED COVER OF THE DMP248 FIGURE 4-4 Serial bus connections. To connect a PC to the DMP248 transmitters via the RS 232C serial bus, one of the following cables is required. The type of cable depends on the terminal and the connector type.
CHAPTER 4_____________________________________________________________ COMMISSIONING When the serial bus has been connected between the PC and the transmitter, the PC is switched on. When using a PC, a terminal emulation programme (e.g. Procomm Plus, Datastorm or Windows terminal) is started.
OPERATING MANUAL _______________________________________________________________ RX GND TX X17 FIGURE 4-6 NOTE Location and connections of connector X17. Some PC computers can generate interferences to the measured humidity and temperature values if the transmitter and the PC are connected to different mains outlets. To minimize the possibility of these interferences, always use the same main outlet (same phase of the main electricity) for the PC and the power supply of DMP248.
CHAPTER 4_____________________________________________________________ COMMISSIONING transmitter is reset; if the jumper is in place when power is turned on, the transmitter does not work. After jumper insertion the transmitter is in STOP mode, ready to receive commands. The same method is used when the transmitter is in POLL mode and the user has forgotten its address. CAUTION Inserting a jumper in any other place in connector X16 voids the guarantee of the transmitter.
CHAPTER 5________________________________________________________________ COMMANDS CHAPTER 5 COMMANDS The DMP248 transmitter uses a microprocessor; therefore, its configuration can be set according to the user’s needs. This is done through commands, either utilizing the menus on the local display or giving commands through the serial interface (see Appendix 1). Most often, the commands are used to change the settings of the two analogue channels.

APPENDIX 3 ________________________________________________________________________ Installation Switch the transmitter off. Resistors R2, R3 and R4 between connectors X4 and X5 in the component board in the cover of the transmitter are removed with side-cutting pliers. The module is plugged in connectors X4 and X5 on the main board of the DMP248 transmitter; connector X1 on the module board to connector X4 and connector X2 to connector X5.
APPENDIX 3 ________________________________________________________________________ connection can be used. No address is needed when only one DMP248 transmitter is used; when several transmitters are connected to the same line, each transmitter must be given an address in the initial configuration. A single transmitter can get its operating voltage from the master or it can have its own (floating) power supply or it has the power supply module in use.
APPENDIX 3 ________________________________________________________________________ The RS 485/422 module has separate lines for transmitting and receiving, but they can be connected together with jumpers. Dual loop connection is the factory setting; when a single loop connection is used, the positions of jumpers in connector X4 on the module must be changed. The HI of the receiving line is approx. 0.6 V and its LO is approx. 0 V in order to reduce noise on the lines when no data is transferred (idling).
APPENDIX 3 ________________________________________________________________________ • Connect wires to the transmitter’s serial connector. • Check the wiring. The following procedure must be repeated with all transmitters. • Open the transmitter cover. • Pull out the RS 485/422 serial port module, if it is already mounted. • Set the serial port of the terminal to 4800 baud, even parity, seven data bits and one stop bit, full duplex (4800 E 7 1 FDX).
APPENDIX 3 ________________________________________________________________________ NOTE The transmitter outputs no prompt (>) after the SMODE POLL command and it only reacts to commands which include its address. • Check that the transmitter responds to its address: >send 22 Td= -47.4 ’C T= 29.1 ’C • Disconnect the terminal. • Check that the jumpers in connector X4 are in the right places. X1 X2 X4 X4 • Remount the RS 485/422 serial module. • Close the cover.
APPENDIX 3 ________________________________________________________________________ RS 232C port of the terminal to connector X17 on the top of the main board and switch the power on. When dual loop is used, the jumpers in connector X4 on the module board must be as shown below. X1 X2 X4 X4 • Set the address of the transmitter, it can be any number between 1 and 99. In this example the address is 22: >addr 22 Address : 22 • Set the serial bus settings according to your system.
APPENDIX 3 ________________________________________________________________________ >send 22 RH= 24.4 %RH T= 29.1 ’C • Disconnect the terminal. • Check that the jumpers in connector X4 are in the right places. X1 X2 X4 X4 • Remount the RS 485/422 serial module. • Close the cover. • Repeat this setting procedure with each transmitter. • When all transmitters on the network have been configured, switch them off.

APPENDIX 4 ________________________________________________________________________ Installation Switch the transmitter off. Resistors R2, R3 and R4 between connectors X4 and X5 in the component board in the cover of the transmitter are removed with side-cutting pliers. The module is plugged in connectors X4 and X5 on the main board of the DMP248 transmitter; connector X1 on the module board to connector X4 and connector X2 to connector X5.
APPENDIX 4 ________________________________________________________________________ NOTE The host computer can restrict the loop supply voltage that can be used; see computer specifications. The serial line structure is a serial interfaced chain (daisy chain). At one end of the serial line there must be a DMP248 transmitter and at the other end a line master. A branch line can be made with a junction box.
APPENDIX 4 ________________________________________________________________________ simpler wiring. Data transmission is achieved by switching the loop current on and off. Normally, current flows through the loop(s) even when the DMP248 transmitter is not on, so switching one transmitter off does not affect the other transmitters on the loop. When the wires have been connected correctly, the voltage drop from RX+ to RX- is below 2 V.
APPENDIX 4 ________________________________________________________________________ • Set the serial port of the terminal to 4800 baud, even parity, seven data bits and one stop bit, full duplex (4800 E 7 1 FDX). • The serial settings of the transmitter must also be 4800 E 7 1 FDX and the transmitter must be in STOP mode. If these factory settings have been changed, they must be changed back. Connect the RS 232C port of the terminal to connector X17 on the top of the main board and switch the power on.
APPENDIX 4 ________________________________________________________________________ • Check that the transmitter responds to its address: send 22 Td= -47.4 ’C T= 29.1 ’C • Disconnect the terminal. • Remount the digital current loop module. • Close the cover. • When all transmitters on the network have been configured, switch them off. Dual loop operation Single pair/dual pair use is configured through wiring (see figure on page 2). The following procedure must be repeated with all transmitters.
APPENDIX 4 ________________________________________________________________________ Dual loop wiring • Set the address of the transmitter, it can be any number between 1 and 99. In this example the address is 22: >addr 22 Address : 22 • Set the serial bus settings according to your system.
APPENDIX 4 ________________________________________________________________________ Checking the serial port network operation Normally, measurement readings are asked when the transmitter is in POLL mode; then the command must include the address of the transmitter. If the settings of the transmitter need to be changed, the transmitter is switched to STOP mode with command OPEN; commands can then be given without address. When the line to the transmitter is closed, it returns to POLL mode.
APPENDIX 4 ________________________________________________________________________ When the necessary settings have been given, close the line to transmitters (the command closes all open lines): >close line closed CLOSE command is always given without address. If no lines are open, there will be no response to the CLOSE command. POLL mode If a transmitter has been set to POLL mode, it will respond only to commands which include its address: send 22 Td= -47.4 ’C T= 29.

APPENDIX 5 ________________________________________________________________________ ERROR MESSAGES The DMP248 transmitters go through a self-diagnostics procedure when the power is switched on. When the procedure does not reveal any errors or faults, the transmitter starts operating normally. If errors or faults are found, the transmitter outputs an error message. The error messages can be divided into two groups: error messages after the reset and error messages during operation.
APPENDIX 5 ________________________________________________________________________ l CPU EEPROM error l input hybrid error Errors during operation Two types of errors are possible during operation of the transmitters. The first type indicates that no frequency comes from the converter.
APPENDIX 5 ________________________________________________________________________ The LEDs display these error types as follows: no frequency at all a frequency missing from the RH channel a frequency missing from the T channel The second error type indicates erroneous y-values (used in internal calculations): Display: Serial bus: E51 T y-value out of range E53 U1 y-value out of range The LEDs display these error types as follows: RH channel y-value out of range T channel
