2. Configuración e instalación

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your DHC-96 device. Ensure all power sources are disconnected before proceeding with installation.

2.1 panel de montaje

• Prepare a panel cutout with dimensions of 96 x 49 mm.
• Insert the DHC-96 unit into the cutout from the front.
• Secure the unit using the provided mounting clips or brackets from the rear of the panel. Ensure a snug fit to maintain the IP 54 frontal protection rating.

2.2 Conexión de la fuente de alimentación

The DHC-96 supports a universal power supply. Connect the power source to the designated terminals on the rear of the unit.

• For AC/DC power, connect to 80-270 Vca/cc terminals.
• For DC power, connect to 16-36 VCC terminals.
• Asegúrese de que la polaridad sea correcta para las conexiones de CC.

2.3 Measurement Input Connection

Connect the signal source to the programmable measurement input terminals. Refer to the wiring diagram provided with your specific model for detailed connection points.

• Por voltage measurements, connect the voltagy fuente.
• For current measurements, connect through a shunt or current transformer as appropriate for your application.
• Ensure galvanic insulation between external circuits is maintained.

2.4 Conexión de salida de relé

The DHC-96 features two output relays for control and alarm functions. Connect these relays to your external control systems or alarm indicators as required.

• Identify the relay output terminals.
• Wire the relays according to your application's control logic.
• Configure alarm delays and interlocking settings via the device's menu.

3. Instrucciones de funcionamiento

Once installed and powered, the DHC-96 is ready for operation. The front panel features a digital display and control buttons for configuration and monitoring.

3.1 Visualización sobreview

The digital display shows the measured electrical variant (e.g., voltage, current, frequency) or the proportional value of a process signal. The unit automatically adjusts the display based on the configured measurement type.

• DC Systems: Capaz de medir voltage, current, frequency, and other industrial process variables.
• Modelos de CA: Perform measurements in True Effective Value (TRMS).
• Punto decimal: The decimal point is self-configurable to suit your measurement precision requirements.

3.2 Funciones de los botones

The front panel buttons allow for navigation through menus, parameter configuration, and display adjustments. Specific button functions may vary slightly depending on the firmware version.

• Flechas izquierda/derecha (< / >): Typically used for navigating through menu options or adjusting values.
• Flechas arriba/abajo (∧ / ∨): Se utiliza para aumentarasing/decreasing values or selecting options.
• Botón Menú/Entrar: Used to access the main menu, confirm selections, or save settings.
• Escape/Back Button: Se utiliza para salir de un menú o cancelar una operación.

3.3 Configuration and Programming

The DHC-96 allows for programming various parameters to suit specific application needs. This includes setting the measurement input type, configuring alarm thresholds, and defining relay behaviors.

• Access the configuration menu by pressing the Menu/Enter button.
• Navegue por las opciones del menú utilizando los botones de flecha.
• Select the desired parameter to modify and adjust its value.
• Save changes before exiting the menu.
• Refer to the detailed programming guide (if available separately) for advanced configurations.

4. Mantenimiento

The DHC-96 is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance. Regular inspection and cleaning will help ensure its continued performance.

• Limpieza: Limpie periódicamente el panel frontal con un paño suave.amp paño. No utilice limpiadores abrasivos ni disolventes, ya que pueden dañar la pantalla oasing.
• Inspección: Regularly inspect the wiring connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or looseness. Ensure the unit is securely mounted in its panel cutout.
• Ambiente: Ensure the operating environment remains within the specified temperature and humidity ranges to prevent damage. The IP 54 frontal protection helps against dust and splashing water, but the unit is not designed for immersion.
• No hay piezas que el usuario pueda reparar: The DHC-96 contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to open the casing, ya que esto anulará la garantía y puede exponerlo a peligros eléctricos.

5. Solución de problemas

If you encounter issues with your DHC-96, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps. For problems not listed here, contact Circutor technical support.

• Sin pantalla/encendido:
  • Check the power supply connections to ensure they are secure and correctly wired.
  • Verifique que el volumen de la fuente de alimentacióntage is within the specified range (80-270 Vca/cc or 16-36 VCC).
  • Verifique si hay disyuntores disparados o fusibles quemados en el circuito de alimentación.
• Lecturas incorrectas:
  • Ensure the measurement input is correctly connected and the signal source is active.
  • Verify that the device's measurement input type is correctly configured in the settings to match your application (e.g., voltage, current, process signal).
  • Check for any external interference or noise affecting the signal.
  • Confirm the decimal point setting is appropriate for the expected values.
• El relé no se activa:
  • Check the relay output wiring for proper connection to the external control system.
  • Verify the alarm thresholds and relay logic are correctly configured in the device's settings.
  • Ensure the measured value has exceeded or fallen below the set alarm threshold.
