3. Default Parameters
The Exactus® Industrial Mux ships with the following default parameters:
Analog output is enabled. Note: Not all Industrial Mux units will include analog outputs.
(Only Model number IFM8-IA include the analog output ports)
Temperature alarm is set to power down all pyrometers when any pyrometer electronics
temperature drops below 0ºC (32ºF) or goes above 75ºC (167ºF).
The coil for Relay 1 is programmed to energize if the pyrometer temperature limits are
exceeded. Pyrometers will remain powered down until power to the Industrial Mux is cycled
off and back on.
The Pyrometer Supply Voltage is set to 6200mV – adequate for standard pyrometer
power/communication cables up to 15 meters (49 ft).
Note: If these defaults are adequate, no further configuration is necessary.
4. Configuration Communication
If configuration of the Industrial Mux is necessary, a program such as HyperTerminal which is
included with some versions of Microsoft
®
Windows, can be used. Some versions of the
Exactus® TemperaSure® software include a ‘Configure Mux’ menu in the Advanced Mode of
operation (see figure 4-0).
