General Description
The Merlin universal digital indicator accepts
analog inputs from a range of industrial sen-
sors, including: process, temperature, ow,
frequency, and voltage from 200mV to
300V. It features a wide range power supply
that suits both AC mains and 24V DC applica-
tions, and supplies the excitation required
for common sensors and transmitters.
The Merlin can be scaled into any engineer-
ing unit, and the result displayed on the
large 0.8" 4 digit super-bright LED display.
Auto ranging is available to increase the dy-
namic range of viewable data.
The Merlin R2A adds two Form A 3 Amp
relays for a variety of control and alarm
functions, and a 4-20mA active output for
retransmission to PLCs and SCADA systems.
The unit boasts a 1 minute setup time using
the Dene Toolbox conguration soware.
All functions are explained expertly in the
dynamic sidebar help - perfect for the novice
starting out who can use it to learn about
industrial applications, or the expert who
wants to save commissioning time.
The Merlin has been designed for harsh in-
dustrial environments. With an IP65 sealed
bezel and extensive testing of noise eects
to and beyond CE requirements, the meter
provides a tough and reliable application
solution.

2HARDWARE INSTALLATION
2.1 - Installation instructions
The Merlin is designed to be mounted into
an enclosed panel, and meets IP65 require-
ments when properly installed.
A Prepare the Panel Cutout to 92x45mm
±.5 (3.62x1.77" ±.02) as shown below.
B Remove the Mounting Clips from the
Merlin unit.
C Slide the Panel Gasket over the rear of
the unit to the back of the Bezel.
D From the front of the panel, insert the
Merlin into the Panel Cutout. Holding
the unit in place, engage the Mounting
Clips so that the tabs snap into place
over the notches on the case.
E To achieve a proper seal, tighten the
Screws evenly until the unit sits rmly
against the panel (torque to approxi-
mately 70N-cm [6.2 in-lbs]). Do not over-
tighten the screws.

2.2 - Installation environment
The Merlin should be installed in a location
that does not exceed the maximum operat-
ing temperature, and at a safe distance from
other devices that generate excessive heat.
The installation environment should provide
good air circulation to the unit.
The bezel, plastic casing and product label
may be cleaned, if required, using a so,
damp cloth and neutral soap product.
Continuous exposure to direct sunlight
should be avoided, as this may accelerate
the aging process of the bezel.

3SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
ToolBox oers a smart, no-fuss setup experience for your Merlin universal indicator. It features
USB powered programming (no power supply required!) and has been designed to simplify
and speed up conguration.
You must install ToolBox before connecting the Merlin to your computer. If you have already
connected the meter using the Bridge Key, please disconnect it before continuing.
A Download the latest version of ToolBox from
www.deneinstruments.com/toolbox
For ease of access, we recommend saving the install le on your desktop. If you
can't nd the install le, check whether your browser has saved it in your 'Downloads' folder.
B Extract the install le from the zip folder. Right-click on the zip folder and choose 'Extract
All', (or extract the le using another extraction utility of your choice).
C Double-click on the extracted .msi install
le. This will launch the ToolBox installer.
Depending on your security settings, a
'Security Warning' dialog may appear. If
you see the security message, click 'Run'.

D The ToolBox setup wizard will
launch (Fig 3).
Click 'Next' to get started.
E The wizard will also ask for
conrmation that you wish to
begin the installation.
Click 'Next' to continue.
F Next the wizard will prompt
you to select an installation
folder (Fig 4). You may accept
the default installation folder,
or select an alternative loca-
tion by clicking 'Browse'.
Click 'Next' to continue.
G The install wizard will now in-
stall ToolBox, and a progress
bar will appear. Please wait.
This process usually takes 2-3
minutes.
If you are using
Windows with 'User
Account Control'
enabled, you may
be asked for permis-
sion to continue the
installation (Fig 5).
Click 'Yes'.
(Note that this
dialogue may cause
a slight delay to
the installation
process.)
H When ToolBox has nished in-
stalling, 'Installation Complete'
will appear (Fig 6). Click 'Close'.
The installer will place an icon
on your desktop for easy ac-
cess to ToolBox.
The downloaded .zip and .msi
installer les are no longer
needed, and may be deleted.

4SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION USING TOOLBOX
4.1 - Bridge Key
Install the ToolBox soware (see Section 3) before connecting the Merlin to your PC.
Then connect the Merlin to your computer's USB port using the Bridge Key (supplied sepa-
rately), as shown below. The interface cable connects to the USB programming jack on the
unit's back panel (see 5.3D). A USB extension cable is supplied for your use if required - this is
oen used for convenience in accessing USB ports located at the back of the computer.

CAUTION
Risk of damage to equipment or PC
Ensure that all connections between the Bridge Key and your Merlin are secure. Connect-
ing your indicator with cables that are not rmly 'pushed in' will result in connection faults,
and in extreme cases could cause damage to your computer.
Do not uplug the Bridge Key or any connecting cables while ToolBox is busy applying
changes to the Merlin. This may cause loss of settings, or unexpected unit behaviour.
CAUTION
Not UL approved
The Bridge Key is sold separately to the Merlin and has not been certied for UL.

Merlin universal indicator. To set up your indicator, only the Bridge Key is required - you do
not need to supply power.
ToolBox features a comprehensive help panel that will guide you through the setup of your
Merlin universal indicator. Helpful hints and explanations will appear when you adjust a
setting using the ToolBox controls.
There are three main navigation pages/tabs:
›Input/Output: Input mode/range, Scaling/offset, Display, Retransmission scaling
›Setpoints: Alarm control/mode, Setpoint activation points, advanced modes
›Advanced: Load/save configuration, Create configuration certificate
A Double-click the ToolBox icon on your desktop to launch the ToolBox program.
B With the Merlin connected to your computer's USB port (see 4.1), click the green
'Connect' button. This will scan your computer's Com ports and automatically connect to
your device.
Connection problems?
ToolBox will auto-detect and connect to the Merlin when you click the 'Connect' button. If you
have problems establishing a connection, please check the following:
›Ensure that all connections between the device and your computer are secure. The main
interface cable must be fully inserted into both the USB programmer and the Merlin's
programming port. Press firmly.
›Try disconnecting and reconnecting the Merlin USB, or using a different USB port on
your computer.
›Disconnect any additional compatible devices. The software auto-detect feature does
not work if multiple Merlins are connected simultaneously.
