Easy Setup & Programming
The PD865 Snooper Modbus Serial Input Meter can be programmed
as a Modbus RTU Master or Slave. As a Master, the Snooper
reads a slave device, scales the data from it, displays
the result, and operates the internal relays and 4-20
mA output. As a Slave, it is controlled by a master device.
The data sent to it by the master is scaled, displayed,
and used to operate the relays and 4-20 mA output.
The Snooper is housed in a shallow-depth 1/8 DIN panel
meter enclosure that features a NEMA 4X front panel. Data
is displayed on an adjustable intensity, six-digit, seven-segment
LED display. The Snooper can be powered from 85-265 VAC
or 12-36 VDC.
It comes standard with 2 relays and is available with 2 additional relays and 4-20 mA output as options.
A Quick Start Guide of the entire menu structure is available.

User Friendly Menu Structure
To simplify programming, the Snooper setup functions are
divided into two menus. The main menu consists of the
most commonly used functions and the advanced features
menu handles the special functions used less frequently.
Main Menu
The main menu consists of the most commonly used functions: Mode, Serial, Program, and Password.
Press the Menu button to enter Meter Programming
then press Up arrow button to scroll through the
main menu.
Press the Menu button at any time, to exit and
return to Run mode. Changes prior to pressing the Enter/Ack
button are not saved.
Changes to the settings are saved to memory only after pressing the Enter/Ack button.
The display automatically moves to the next menu every
time a setting is accepted by pressing the Enter/Ack
button.

Setting Numeric
Values
The numeric values are set using the Right and
Up arrow buttons. Press Right arrow button to select next digit and Up arrow button to increment digit value. The digit being changed is displayed brighter than the rest.
Press the Enter/ACK button, at any time, to accept a setting or Menu button to exit without saving changes.
The decimal point is selected by going to the Program-Decimal Point menu.

Setup & Programming
Operating Modes 
The Mode menu is used to select how the meter is to function:
Master: Reads a slave device, scales the data from
it, displays the result, and operates the relays and 4-20
mA output.
Slave: Read and controlled by a master device (PLC,
DCS, etc). The data sent to it by the master is scaled,
displayed, and
used to operate the relays and 4-20 mA output. All parameters
are accessible via the Slave Mode
Register Table.
The Master Mode requires additional parameter selection to specify how the slave device is to be read and how to interpret the data.
Master Mode 
The Master mode contains .ve additional submenus: select which Function Code to use, Slave Register Number, Data type and format, Slave Response timeout, and Polling time.
Slave Mode 
There are no menus required for the Slave mode. All the parameters are prede.ned in the Slave Mode Register Table.
Serial Communications 
The meter has an RS-485 interface. The Serial menu is used to program the address, baud rate, parity, and byte-to-byte timeout. In Master mode, the address represents the address of the slave device being accessed. In Slave mode the address represents the
Program Menu 
The Programming menu contains the menus for Decimal Point, Scale, Relays, and Analog Output (4-20 mA).
Decimal Point 
Decimal point may be set one to five decimal places or with no decimal point at all. Pressing the Up arrow button moves the decimal point one place to the right until no decimal point is displayed, then it moves to the leftmost position.
Scale Display Value 
The data that the meter receives can be scaled to display in engineering units. When the Linear function is selected, up to 16 points may be programmed to handle non-linear data. If either the Square Root or Programmable Exponent function is selected, only two points are available for scaling. See the Advanced Features/Display Function menu for more information.
Setting the Relay Operation 
This menu allows you to set up the operation of the relays:
1. Relay action
2. Set point
3. Reset point
4. Fail-safe operation
5. Time delay
6. Communications break action
See instruction manual for description of display functions and messages
Setting the Relay Action 
The relays Action menu allows the user to set up the operation of the relays. The relays may be set up for any of the following
1. Automatic reset (non-latching)
2. Automatic + manual reset at any time (non-latching)
3. Latching (manual reset only, at any time)
4. Latching with Clear (manual reset only after alarm
5. Pump alternation control (automatic reset only)
6. Off (relay and status LED disabled)
Programming Set & Reset Points 
High alarm indication: program set point above reset point.
Low alarm indication: program set point below reset point.
The deadband is determined by the difference between set and reset points. Minimum deadband is one display count. If set and reset points are programmed the same, relay will reset one count below set point.
Setting Fail-Safe Operation 
The fail-safe operation is set independently for each relay. Select On to enable or select Off to disable fail-safe operation.
Programming Time Delays 
Each relay has an On and Off time delay that may be programmed between 0 and 199 seconds. The relays will transfer only after the condition has been maintained for the corresponding time delay.
Scaling 4-20 mA Analog Output 
The 4-20 mA analog output can be scaled to provide a 4-20 mA signal for any display range selected. No equipment is needed to scale the analog output; simply program the display values to the corresponding mA output signal.
Setting Up the Password 
The Password menu is used to program a four digit password to prevent unauthorized changes to the programmed parameter settings
|
Advanced Features Menu
To simplify the setup process, functions not needed for most applications are located in the Advanced Features menu:
Display Function, Noise Filter, Noise Filter Bypass,
Cutoff, Analog Output Programming, Display Intensity,
and Information.
Press and hold the Right arrow button and Menu
buttons for three seconds to access the Advanced Features.
(Tip: press and hold the Right arrow button .rst,
then the Menu button). Press the Up arrow
button to scroll
through the advanced features menu.
Press Menu button at any time, to exit and return
to Meter Run. Changes made to settings prior to pressing
Enter/Ack
button are not saved.
Changes to the settings are saved to memory only after pressing Enter/Ack button.
The display automatically moves to the next menu every
time a setting is accepted by pressing Enter/Ack
button.
