Detailed informations about installation of TRS system user can find in:

“User manual for Temperature and Humidity Recording System”.

4. DEVICE INSTALLATION

The unit has been designed and manufactured in a way assuring a high level of user

safety and resistance to interference occurring in a typical industrial environment. In order to

take full advantage of these characteristics installation of the unit must be conducted correctly

and according to the local regulations.

- Installation should be conducted by qualified personnel .

- Read the basic safety requirements on page 3 prior to starting the installation.

- All installation works must be conducted with a disconnected power supply.

4.1. UNPACKING

After removing the unit from the protective packaging, check for transportation damage.

Any transportation damage must be immediately reported to the carrier. Also, write down the

unit serial number on the housing and report the damage to the manufacturer.

Attached with the unit please find:

- warranty,

- user’s manual for TRS-01a unit (device)

4.2. ASSEMBLY

- Disconnect the power supply prior to starting assembly.

- Check the correctness of the performed connections prior to switching the unit on.

To install the device prepare pinholes accordingly to Figure 4.1. Back side of the

case (with mounting holes) should be mounted to a wall using screws.

User manual - AMBIENT TEMPERATURE TRANSDUCER TRS-01a

Figure 4.1. Distances between pinholes

1. The module should not be used in environment, where vapour condensation

occurs.

2. Avoid module of installation near doors, windows (especially in rooms with

higher temperature), air conditioners, ventilation, or assembly line where

people work, machinery emitted vapours or high temperature, or needs

periodic cleaning. To protect of installation changes (and it's costs), it is

recommended to plan all places where sensors will be installed due to

experiments made with portable temperature and humidity sensor.

3. It is important, to install measurement modules in place allowing free air flow

around of sensors (best if flow is not stimulated mechanically). If module is

mounted on absorbent or wet walls distance from sensor to wall should be

higher than 7 cm. Remember, that stagnant air is perfect thermal insulator, so

it can make significant differences between near placed sensors. To avoid of

these situations, mechanically stimulated (but soft) air flow is recommended.

Modules should be mounted in that way to direct sensors down.

4.3. CONNECTION METHOD

Caution

- Installation should be conducted by qualified personnel . During installation all

available safety requirements should be considered. The fitter is responsible for

executing the installation according to this manual, local safety and EMC

regulations.

- Wiring must meet appropriate standards and local regulations and laws.

- Tighten the clamping screws. The recommended tightening torque is 0.5 Nm.

Loose screws can cause fire or defective operation. Over tightening can lead to

damaging the connections inside the units and breaking the thread.

- If the unit is equipped with housing, covers and sealing packing, protecting

against water intrusion, pay special attention to their correct tightening or clamping.

In the case of any doubt consider using additional preventive measures (covers,

roofing, seals, etc.). Carelessly executed assembly can increase the risk of electric

shock.

Due to possible significant interference in industrial installations appropriate measures

assuring correct operation of the unit must be applied. To avoid the unit of improper

indications keep recommendations listed below.

-Avoid common (parallel) leading of signal cables and transmission cables together with

power supply cables and cables controlling induction loads (e.g. contactors). Such cables

should cross at a right angle.

-Contactor coils and induction loads should be equipped with anti-interference protection

systems, e.g. RC-type.

-In the case of magnetically induced interference the use of twisted couples of signal

cables (so-called “spirals”) is recommended. The shielded spiral must be used with

RS-4 5 serial transmission connections.

-In the case of interference from the power supply side the use of appropriate anti-

interference filters is recommended. Bear in mind that the connection between the filter

and the unit should be as short as possible and the metal housing of the filter must be

connected to the earthing with largest possible surface. The cables connected to the filter

output must not run in parallel with cables with interference (e.g. circuits controlling relays

or contactors).

Connections of power supply voltage and measurement signals are executed using the

screw connections inside of the unit’s housing (Figure 4.2 - 4.4).

An example of the transducers application is multipoint monitoring system (Figure 4.5).

Control panel (i.e. SPA-99 made by SIMEX) is used as MASTER in MODBUS network,

simultaneously it displays readed informations of all measurement points.

RS-485 bus should be equipped with termination resistors (100-150 ohm) on

both ends. The bus must not be ramified, and longer than 1 km.

4.4. MAINTENANCE

The unit does not have any internal replaceable or adjustable components available to

the user. Pay attention to the ambient temperature in the room where the unit is operating.

Excessively high temperatures cause faster ageing of the internal components and shorten the

fault-free time of unit operation.

In cases where the unit gets dirty do not clean with solvents. For cleaning use warm water with

small amount of detergent or in the case of more significant contamination ethyl or isopropyl

alcohol.

Using any other agents can cause permanent damage to the housing.

Product marked with this symbol should not be placed in municipal waste. Please

check local regulations for disposal and electronic products.

5. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

TRS-01a module is equipped with modern digital temperature converter. These IC has

resolution of 12 bits. Converted measurement signals are transmitted to the microcontroller

where they are computed and filtered according to given parameters. Measurement data can

be readed from the module via RS-4 5 interface by any MASTER controller (i.e. Control panel

or PC). In factoring process, the same address (0xFE) is written to every module. These

addresses can be changed at any time using proper MODBUS commands, or can be forced

to be reset to 0xFF value using module internal momentary switch (to enhance system

installation process, see: FORCING OF 0xFF ADDRESS). All settings are stored in non-

volatile EEPROM memory, and available under fixed register numbers.

LED indicator is installed in the module mainboard, it indicates following situations:

• normal operation mode - flashes every about 10 seconds.

• temperature sensor failure - quick flashes, about 1 time per second

handmade forcing of address 0xFF - permanent light

6. THE MODBUS PRO TOCOL HANDLING

Transmission parameters: 1 start bit, data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity control

Baud rate: 9600 bits/second

Transmission protocol: MODBUS RTU compatible

The device parameters and measurement result are available via RS-4 5 interface, as

HOLDING-type registers of Modbus RTU protocol. The registers (or groups of the registers)

can be read by 03h function, and wrote by 06h (single register only) accordingly to Modbus

RTU specification. Maximum group size for 03h function can not exceeds 5 registers (for single

frame).

The device interprets the broadcast messages, but then do not sends the answers.
