OPERATOR MODE  
2.1 Introduction  
Operator Mode (Level 1) is the normal day-to-day mode of the DATUM L160.  
Frames displayed in Level 1 are determined and limited by the indicator functions  
which are selected during configuration of the instrument – see Section 4.  
Note. Only the operating frames relevant to the configured functions are  
displayed in Operator Mode.

CONFIGURATION MODE  
4.1 Introduction – Fig. 4.1  
The Configuration Mode comprises two levels (3 and 4) as shown in Fig. 4.1.  
Level 3 is divided into four frames. For most simple applications it is only necessary to  
set up the parameters in the first frame.  
Note.  
When in the Configuration Level:  
All the LED indicators flash.  
All relays and logic outputs are turned off.  
The analog output reverts to 0% (4mA) output level.

Process Alarms – an alarm becomes active when the process variable rises  
above the high process alarm trip point value or falls below the low process  
alarm trip point value. Process alarm trip point values are configured in  
engineering units in Set Up Level (Level 2). If an alarm hysteresis value of  
zero is configured the alarm becomes inactive when the process variable  
value returns past the alarm trip point value. If a positive or negative  
hysteresis value is configured the alarm becomes inactive when the process  
variable reaches the hysteresis point. The hysteresis value is configured in  
engineering units e.g. if a hysteresis point five inches H20 below the alarm  
trip point is required, a hysteresis value of –5.0 is configured. The  
programmable alarm hysteresis function can also be utilized for pump  
control applications when an output relay is assigned to an alarm.

Note.  
Fast/Slow Rate Alarms – an alarm becomes active when the rate of change in  
the process variable is faster or slower than the configured alarm value. Rate  
of change alarm values are configured as a % of span change per hour. The  
elapsed time period before the alarm condition is detected is dependant  
upon the configured alarm value. This period can be calculated as follows:  
1800  
t = 10.81 +  
trip value (as a % of eng. span/hr)  
t = 191 seconds  
The alarm remains active until the rate of change in the process variable  
returns to the non-alarm condition. The calculated time period (t) elapses  
between the process variable reaching the non-alarm condition and the  
alarm becoming inactive.

High/Low Latch Alarms – An alarm becomes active when the process variable  
value rises above the high latch alarm trip point value or falls below the low  
latch alarm trip point value. The latch alarm trip point values are configured  
in engineering units in the Set Up Level (Level 2). The alarm remains active  
until it is acknowledged and the alarm process condition is removed. The  
alarm can be acknowledged using the keys on the instrument front panel  
(see page 3) or via the volt-free digital input once it has been configured to  
provide a remote alarm acknowledge facility.

EC Directive 89/336/EEC  
In order to meet the requirements of the EC Directive 89/336/EEC for EMC  
regulations, this product must not be used in a non-industrial environment.  
End of Life Disposal  
This instrument does not contain any substance that will cause undue harm to  
the environment. It can therefore be safely considered as normal waste and  
disposed of accordingly.  
Cleaning  
Clean the front panel only, using warm water and a mild detergent.

Notes.  
DATUM L160  
Sensor cable runs over long distances can  
pick up transients which could impair  
operation of the L160. Transient  
protection within the L160 Level System  
gives protection against induced voltage  
transients of up to 2kV.

environments,  
condensation must be prevented from

conditions,  
e.g.

mobile communications equipment is expected to be used, screened  
cables within earthed metal conduit must be used.

5.3 Mounting the Instrument – Figs. 5.4 and 5.5  
The instrument is designed for wall-mounting or pipe-mounting (see Fig. 5.5). The  
pipe-mounting kit (part no. 4600/0138) is suitable for both vertical and horizontal  
pipes. Overall dimensions are shown in Fig. 5.4.

5.4 Electrical Connections – Fig. 5.6  
Warning.  
The instrument is not fitted with a switch therefore a disconnecting device  
such as a switch or circuit breaker conforming to local safety standards must  
be fitted to the final installation. It must be mounted in close proximity to the  
instrument within easy reach of the operator and must be marked clearly as  
the disconnection device for the instrument  
Remove all power from supply, relay and any powered control circuits and  
high common mode voltages before accessing or making any connections.  
Use cable appropriate for the load currents. The terminals accept cables up  
to 14AWG (2.5mm2).  
The instrument conforms to Mains Power Input Insulation Category 2,  
Pollution Degree 2 (EN601010–1).  
All connections to secondary circuits must have basic insulation.  
After installation, there must be no access to live parts, e.g. terminals  
Terminals for external circuits are for use only with equipment with no  
accessible live parts.  
If the instrument is used in a manner not specified by the Company, the  
protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.  
All equipment connected to the instrument's terminals must comply with  
local safety standards (IEC 60950, EN601010–1).  
Note.  
Always route signal leads and power cables separately, preferably in earthed  
(grounded) metal conduit.  
It is strongly recommended that screened cable is used for signal inputs and  
relay connections.
