SCAN MOST SIGNALS/SENSORSThe MINIMUX® II is a microprocessor-based eight channel analog input scanner/multipexer and annunciator that provides low-cost automatic switching for multi-point display and alarm systems. Each MINIMUX® II can automatically switch up to eight inputs to another device such as a digital panel meter, controller, or PLC. Signal switching is done via reed relays making the MINIMUX® II ideal for switching thermocouples, RTDs, control loops, and AC & DC signals.USES FOR MINIMUX® IIAutomatic SwitchingIn its most basic form, the PD138 is the electrical equivalent of a double-pole, eight position automatic switch. Whatever input is brought into the PD138 is dwelled on for a certain amount of time while being channeled/switched out to another device. For example, a typical application may involve channeling/switching eight type J thermocouples into a single digital panel meter.Temperature ScanningOne of the most popular uses for the PD138 is temperature monitoring, especially the monitoring of bearing and stator winding temperatures. Any of the many different style thermocouples, RTDs, or thermistors can be used with the PD138 - right out of the box.Automatic or Manual ScanThe PD138 automatically scans through each active channel, dwells on that channel for an independently programmed dwell time, while at the same time switching the signal to an external device. The scanning can be stopped, or scanned manually via the front panel stop/go pushbutton.Alarm AnnunciatorOne of the key features of the PD138 is its ability to indicate and process alarms that are generated by an external device. Each channel of the MINIMUX® II has an independent ‘Alarm-in’ terminal that allows an external device to trigger an alarm on the MINIMUX® II. The external device may be the relays on a digital panel meter, such as the PD765, or the digital output from a PLC.First-Out (Sequence F2A)The PD138 can be configured to recognize first-out alarms. On the PD138, these are one or more alarms that occur during the first complete scan where an alarm is present on one or more channels.FRONT PANEL Self TestWhen the PD138 is powered, the LEDs are turned on one channel at a time until all green and then all red LEDs have been tested. The internal horn will sound at the end of the LED test.APPLICATIONPD138 and PD765 to Scan ThermocouplesIn the following application example, four oven thermocouples are scanned and channeled to a PD765 Temperature Meter where the PV is displayed and checked for low or high alarm conditions. All four ovens share the same low and high alarms, so the alarm inputs are joined together on the PD138The PD138 MINIMUX® II is programmed in the following manner to satisfy this application:
  The MINIMUX® II switches to (scans) input 2 channeling it to the PD765-6R2-00 where a temperature of 345° is found to cause a high alarm condition. The PD138 is programmed for Sequence A, so the channel 2 LED alternately flashes yellow and green, the internal horn sounds, and the PD138’s alarm relay transfers causing an external horn to sound. After acknowledging the alarm the channel LED will glow a steady yellow (while selected), or steady red (when not selected) until reset  The MINIMUX® II switches to (scans) input 3 channeling it to the PD765-6R2-00 where a temperature of 220° is found to cause a low alarm condition 2 seconds into the dwell time. Channel 3 LED alternately flashes yellow and green (shown yellow), the internal horn sounds and the PD138’s alarm relay transfers causing an external horn to sound SIGNAL CONNECTIONSThree-Wire RTD InputsThree-wire inputs such as thermistors and RTDs can be handled by switching the two common wires and connecting the third wire of each sensor to the RTD-TP terminal and to the temperature meter

 Thermocouple InputsThermocouple wire must be used between the MINIMUX® II and the meter. This example shows 3 type J thermocouples multiplexed into 1 temperature meter 4-20 mA InputsA special version of the MINIMUX® II is used to switch 4-20 mA signals. The PD138-X-CL (X = power), has a built-in resistor network that eliminates loop interruptions. The process meter must be setup for 1-5 V input and the complete system should be calibrated together The PD6000's internal transmitter power supply may be used to power the transmitters. However, only the transmitter that is currently selected will be powered and all others will not be powered. Care should be taken to provide the transmitter with sufficient time to stabilize to provide an accurate output  MULTIPLE PD138 CONNECTIONSMultiple MINIMUX® II can be connected together to increase multiplexing capacity for an unlimited number of points. When connecting several units together, one unit of the group is designated the master unit and all other units function as follower units. Multiple unit configuration is simply done by connecting the units together as shown below. The system will self-determine if there are two or more MINIMUX® II connected togetherMaster/Follower Connections Multiplexer output signal connections |

ALARM-IN CONNECTIONSEach channel on the PD138 has its own Alarm-In line that provides independent alarm indication capability for each channel. The alarm input lines of the PD138 are normally high (pull-up to 5V). Relay contacts from a Precision Digital meter or a low level logic output from a PLC can be used to drive the PD138 alarm input lines> |
