FlexView, DFO - Graphical display with ColourView indication
Safety instructions
The configurable FlexView, DFO grafical LCD display is used for
read-out of a 4-20 mA signal.
The process values, error indications, damping, engineering units,
backlight, etc. can be configured by use of touch buttons on the
front or by using the FlexProgrammer incl. FP-software.
Some applications are working with a zoomed area e.g. 10...15
mA, which can be shown as a full 0...100% of the zoomed area.
Custom engineering unit is selectable in the Flexprogramme by
use of the 8×20 dot matrix field.
Further a 30-point liniarization table can be entered for e.g. volume
read-out.
Electrical connection
Terminal 1- 4-20 mA loop powered (Supply)
Terminal 2- 4-20 mA loop powered (Supply)
Terminal 3- Relay 1 - NO
Terminal 4- Relay 1 - NO
Terminal 5- Relay 2 - NO
Terminal 6- Relay 2 - NO
(When new instruments PFMx, LFPx,
AFKx etc. are delivered with FlexView,
DFO terminal 1 and 2 are not connected.
Then FlexView, DFO will have power and
data through a special flat cable.
The connected instrument can also be
programmed through the FlexView, DFO
display, by selecting its DTM-file)
Programming connect the FlexProgrammer to the FlexView, DFO.
Com. 1-Red clip 1 it is not necessary to disconnect
Com. 2-Black clip 2 the 4-20 mA loop to the FlexView, DFO display
The electrical installation must always be according to national standards and regulations.
Installation must be performed by trained staff only and always according to the wiring diagram.
Shielded twisted pair cable is recommended. Correct and safe installation and operation of the FlexView, DFO is dependent on proper transport,
storage, installation and operation.
Before switching on or off the power, it must be ensured that no other equipment is affected and that the correct voltage is used.
If in hazardous area (EX-area) installation must be according to the ATEX specifications and local standards and regulations – see separate
instructions in “Operation Instructions FlexView, DFO”.
Different ways of mounting are available.
Mounted in the housing of an instrument as a pre-mounted display, the FlexView, DFO is selected without or with relay output. When new
instruments PFMx, LFPx, AFKx etc. are delivered with FlexView, DFO, terminal 1 and 2 are not connected. In this case the FlexView, DFO will
have power and data through a special digital communication cable. The instrument can then also be programmed directly through the FlexView,
DFO display, by selecting its DTM-file.
Alternatively the FlexView, DFO is delivered in a Ø80 mm housing for separate wall mounting.
