Dual Loop Configuration A

(directional A— B mode)
LED
• 1 Green LED shows when the module is powered
• 2 Red LEDs give
SIGNAL
• the corresponding loop detection state in normal situation
• the value of the oscillation frequency measurement or an error message on power ON
In normal situation the red LED stays ON as long as the loop detects any metallic object.
On power ON the sensor measures the oscillation frequency of each loop. The result of this measurement is displayed using
the corresponding red LED. The amount of blinking indicates the tens value of the frequency. For example 4 short flashes
correspond to a frequency between 40 kHz and 49 kHz. After this message the LED goes back to normal display.
If the loop oscillation frequency falls outside the limits set between 20 kHz and 130 kHz the red LED displays an error
message and the sensor activates the corresponding relay. The blinking frequency shows the type of error according to the
next table. The sensor will stay in this state until the problem is cleared and the frequency goes to the right range.
Remark : The sensor launches automatically a learning process if the oscillation frequency changes more than 10% in
comparison with the measurement value.
Loop frequency error
Oscillation frequency too LOW or loop open
Oscillation frequency too HIGH
Loop shorted or no oscillation
TROUBLE-
SYMPTOM

CORRECT ACTION
Check power supply
Check the loop cable
Adjust frequency with dip switches
or change loop turns
Check relay connections
Check the appropriate loop mode
required and adjust dip switch #10
