Overview

This document is from FloBoss ™  The user manual for S600+Flow Computer covers various aspects such as security precautions, installation, hardware modules, operation, startup, and troubleshooting, aiming to guide users in correctly installing, configuring, operating, and maintaining the device.

Safety precautions

Pre operation reading: Before operating the equipment, it is necessary to carefully read the manual to understand the safety implications. Improper use may result in damage or injury, and the manual should be placed in a convenient location for reference.

Process protection: Equipment failure may cause the operation process to lose appropriate protection, and additional backup equipment or alternative protection measures need to be considered.

Equipment return: When returning the equipment, it is necessary to ensure that it is cleaned to a safe level that complies with relevant laws and regulations, and to bear the responsibility for any non-compliance.

Grounding requirements: The exposed metal parts of metal casings and electrical instruments must be grounded in accordance with OSHA rules and regulations, and mechanical or pneumatic instruments containing electrical operating equipment must also be grounded.

Electrostatic protection: The equipment contains sensitive electronic components that are susceptible to damage from electrostatic discharge and require proper maintenance and handling.

System training: Trained employees are crucial for successful operations and can receive training in various ways.

Ethernet connection: This automation device is suitable for Ethernet networks without public access, and it is not recommended to connect to public Ethernet networks.

Installation

Installation preparation: The installation must comply with local regulations and laws, follow good manufacturing practices, and understand the modular design and main components of the equipment.

Environmental considerations: The device is panel mounted and should be placed in a convenient, comfortable, and safe location. Attention should be paid to the heat dissipation of multiple devices in small spaces.

Required tools: including suitable screwdrivers, wrenches, Allen keys, etc.

Installation steps: including unpacking inspection, dismantling the front panel, installing the panel installation unit, reinstalling the front panel, etc.

Module installation and disassembly: Follow the correct steps, pay attention to electrostatic protection and power-off operation.

EMC protection installation: Install electromagnetic compatibility protection components according to on-site requirements, such as safety backplates, filter adapters, ferrite fixtures, etc.

CPU module

Module Introduction: Includes host processor and related peripherals, with multiple connection interfaces on the back. Pay attention to wiring specifications and avoid improper use of instruments for testing.

Power supply: The power connection is a plug-in standard terminal block with input and output voltage specifications, built-in anti surge fuse, and provides stable output voltage.

**Watchdog relay * *: Single pole double throw relay, energized during normal operation, de energized in case of CPU failure.

Onboard battery backup: used to preserve SRAM, CMOS memory area, and calendar clock content, replaceable, with corresponding steps and precautions for replacement.

Communication ports: including RS-232 serial port, RS-422/RS-485 multi drop port, Ethernet LAN port, local operator PC or remote display port, etc. Each port has its own pin definition and connection requirements.

Connectors and jumpers: There are multiple types of connectors and jumpers used for different functional settings. The default configuration is specified, and it is not recommended to modify them without professional guidance.

USB port: Used to export alarm history, event history, and report history information to a USB flash drive.

Input/Output (I/O)

I/O module (P144): It can measure process signals and provide multiple input/output types, such as analog input, analog output, digital input, digital output, etc. Each type has its own pin definition, wiring method, and functional characteristics.

Prover module (P154): designed specifically for various provers, with specific input-output configurations and functions.

HART module (P188): Provides communication between HART devices and S600+, with corresponding connection and wiring methods.

Mezzanine module (P148): Provides pulse input, installed on I/O and prover modules, affecting specific pulse channels.

Front panel

Description: Provides a local interface to view or modify system parameter values and status, including front panel ports, keyboards, LCD displays, etc.

Front panel port: located at the bottom of the front panel, it is the main connection port for transferring configuration files in the Config 600 software, with specific pin definitions.

Keyboard: includes function keys, directional and menu keys, numeric keys, operation keys, alarm LEDs, and alarm keys, each with its own function.
