801-2-31-A40 Datasheet, PDF (7/28 Pages) Magnetrol International, Inc. – KotronTM II Series 801 RF Capacitance Transmitter For Level/Flow/Volume
UNIT CONFIGURATION
GENERAL CONFIGURATION INSTRUCTIONS
The Kotron II Series 801 capacitance transmitter contains a
microprocessor-based operator interface which allows for
easy configuration of level, flow or volume control applica-
tions. These features are built into the transmitter and are
entered via a keypad located on the front of the unit.
This operator interface and the instructions for the Unit
Configuration are broken down into six main groups of
menus, as follows:
MEASURED VALUES To view measured values
SYSTEM CONFIG
First time configuration (Essential
programming information for
measurements)
I/O CONFIG
Configure input/output functions
ADVANCED
CONFIGURATION
Values that affect the units
performance
DIAGNOSTICS
Test functions
LAPTOP

computer. (With optional Data
Logger only)
Passwords
The Series 801 transmitter has two types of passwords that
can be used to protect configuration parameters. They are as
follows:
GENERAL PASSWORD – The General Password is
used for the I/O Config portion of the Menu Structure (except
for probe lo/probe hi). Any time a change is made to para-
meters in this menu, ie. 4–20 mA, relays, etc., the Series 801
will prompt the operator to enter a password. This password
can be any one to six character numeric combination that is
easy for the operator to remember.
SUPERVISORY PASSWORD – The Supervisory Pass-
word is used for the System Config and the Calibration por-
tion of the Menu Structure (and probe lo/probe hi). This pass-
word is used to protect values that can affect the perfor-
mance and/or accuracy of the device.
NOTE: Although the Supervisory Password is normally used
in the System Config and the Calibration menus, this pass-
word can also be used in any portion of the menus. The
Supervisory Password overrides the General Password.
The Passwords can be changed at any time via the
Calibration mode.
If an invalid password is entered into the 801, the display will
read PASSWORD INVALID. By pressing the DEL key three
times, the unit will return to the normal run mode and contin-
ue to operate with the previous programmed parameters.
Please enter the programmed password below for future
reference.
GENERAL CONFIGURATION INSTRUCTIONS cont.
Operator keypad
All Unit Configuration instructions in this manual will show the
local transmitter display exactly as it will appear to the oper-
ator on the Series 801.
The operator interface to the 801 is via a keypad consisting
of the following keys:
0 –9
.
DEL
ENT
For numeric entry of parameters
For decimal numeric entries
To exit any programming area and re-
turn to the measurement mode
For storing new parameter values into
memory. Also used to exit the para-
meter entry mode, if pressed prior
to entering numeric parameter values
To sequentially access other para-
meter procedures. In addition, para-
meters may be skipped over without
affecting their stored values
2ND
To change the display scrolling speed
when entering text
All values for Parameter Entry procedures follow the trans
action flow below:
