1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS

The Model 3760 is a single-channel panel instrument for DC Voltage and 4-20mA sensors; intended for applications involving single ended or differential DC Voltage signals with ratings between 50 mV to 200.0 Vdc input full scale or 4-20mA inputs. The 3760 will supply excitation, conditioning and provide a calibrated Engineering Unit's display and analog output signals for the measurement of pressure, displacement, speed, load and other parameters associated with DC based sensors. The 3760 is front panel configurable with user selectable wide gain, zero, symmetry, and selectable analog output of voltage and current signals. Display is user configured and independently adjustable for engineering unit scaling up to ±199950 independent of the analog full scale signal.

The Model 3760 can be calibrated by the “two-point (dead-weight)” process involving known “zero” and “full scale” input parameters. A convenient “RCAL” front panel push button or rear panel connection is available for calibration verification.

4. CALIBRATION

This section contains the instructions for calibrating the 3760. Included is a functional description of the instrument front-panel (see Page 1). To perform calibration, proceed as follows.

(a) Connect Sensor and Analog terminals as required. Connect and apply power to the unit. The front-panel digital display should light indicating the application of the AC input power. Allow 10 minutes of warm up for stabilization of transducer characteristics. Remove the front cover of the 3760 unit by removing the two small Phillips screws on the front panel. TARE button should not be activated.
(b) Center the Zero and Fine Span potentiometers by rotating the potentiometers CW until you feel the “end stop” or by the number of turns accomplished (Coarse is 22 turns, Fine is 25 turns). Rotate the potentiometer back to the middle of their range (Coarse 11 turns, Fine 12-13 turns). This will establish the mid-authority adjustment of the potentiometers.
(c) Position the front panel switches to the desired settings for the application. Refer to Section 3 for details.
(d) Relax the sensor or voltage input to “zero” and adjust the Wide Zero and Fine Zero controls until the meter reading is achieved at the point which will be the “zero” value reference.
(e) Once the Zero position has been established, apply a known input to the meter. With the input active and stable, adjust the Wide Span, Coarse Span and Fine Span controls until the display reading required is achieved.
(f) Return the sensor to the "Zero" position and re-adjust the Coarse Zero and Fine Zero controls for the desired reading or analog output of the unit. Repeat the Span (step e) adjustment as necessary to achieve the proper reading or analog output. Note that changes in Span (Gain) will affect Zero. Span and Zero re-adjustments may need to be repeated to obtain the desired reading. (Note that the 3760 meter also has independent display adjustment capability to where the digital display can be adjusted independently to the analog output signal of the unit so as to achieve maximum analog output levels from the meter.)
(g) Once the Zero and the Gain (SPAN) adjustments have been accomplished, if needed -the user can adjust for Negative non-symmetrical value (as referenced by the positive SPAN value) by utilizing the front panel Symmetry control when the input to the meter is Negative - adjust the symmetry control for the correct readout or analog output signal required. Note the Symmetry control has approx. ± 2 % full scale authority.
(h) Once completed, record the position of the "Wide Span" control setting (0 thru F). This setting position will be used to set the internal RCAL switch as described below under "Front Panel Calibration (RCAL) setting" instructions.
(i) Replace the front display lens cover to the original position and ensure proper shielding and grounding have been done to the meter.

Display Calibration The 3760 instrument display has separate adjustment controls that are independent of the analog output controls - allowing the user to alter the display reading to a value that is suited for the display while maintaining the flexibility to adjust the analog signal as needed for external devices. In the standard - default switch position (as marked on the Coarse Span control area), the display has a fixed full scale reading set by the display range switches of 5000, 10000 or 20000 counts. At these settings the full scale analog output signal will be 5 Vdc or 10 Vdc, as selected. To accomplish the display adjustment change, the user would first set the desired display range and decimal location using the display dip switches, adjust the analog output to the desired level and then adjust the Display Coarse and Fine span controls for the required digital readout.

Tech Tip on use of wide range settings for the DC Voltage Conditioner

Due to multiple amplifier stages within the 3760 instrument, attention to the proper gain setting and understanding of the sensor inputs should be reviewed to produce a linear-amplified analog output signal and display reading.

The wide span – gain control (as shown in the front panel diagram) has 16 positions to amplify the incoming signal by incremental steps. Each step is positioned so the Coarse and Fine Span potentiometer controls overlaps each step to provide a continuous linear gain of the signal from 50 mVdc to 200Vdc full scale. Below is a table of each wide gain steps, indicating the nominal low and high input signal range per position – full scale in millivolts DC to the meter.

Front Panel Range Switch Settings (refer to page 9)

FRONT CALIBRATION (RCAL) setting

The 3760 contains a "calibration switch" which is accessed by removing the rear panel of the instrument. This switch is used to set the range of the front panel pushbutton (and rear remote control) of the CAL / Remote CAL function of the 3760 instrument. The "calibration" switch is recommended to be set at the same value (0 thru F) as the front panel's "Wide Span" control. At this setting, the internal voltage reference will produce approx. 80% of the full scale value of the calibrated unit. This allows the user to produce a reference check of the instrument's calibration integrity.

Procedure should be done once the instrument has been calibrated per the instructions above.

To access the "calibration switch":

1) Remove power from the instrument.
2) Record the position of the front panel "Wide Span" control..... 0 thru F position.
3) Remove the 4 phillips head screws retaining the back panel of the instrument
4) Remove the rear panel (with slides) and rotated away from the instrument. Locate the blue rotary switch to the bottom right of the instrument and set the switch to the "Wide Span" control position as noted in Step 2.

When complete, re-assemble the back panel and slides.

Re-energize the instrument.

With your "zero" input active, depress the front "CAL" button, or the rear panel "Remote CAL" logic and record the value on the display. This will be your calibration reference number. If any changes are made to the front panel controls, this reference number will change reflecting a "calibration" change has occurred to the 3760 unit.

"P" Option

ANALOG PEAK CAPTURE

INSTRUCTION MANUAL

1. General Description

The "P" option of the 3700 Series Meter is an added function card which provides the ability of the meter to capture and hold + Peak, -Peak, Max-Min or TIR value that originates from the base 3700 instrument. Any 3700 (except Horsepower 3741) can accommodate the "P" option. Peak Mode signals are captured in real-time analog capacitive memory and are available for display and analog output monitoring. Only one of the following four separate modes can be configured for the Peak Capture operation.

PEAK MODE
Description

+ PEAK	Captures and holds the most positive measurement signal in the positive quadrant
- PEAK	Captures and holds the most negative measurement signal in the negative quadrant
MAX + MIN	Captures and holds the sum of the MAXIMUM and MINIMUM signal values
TIR	Captures and holds the difference in the Positive and Negative Peak values only in the positive signal quadrant of the measurement

Peak functions are configured using the rear panel dip switches and connector terminals as illustrated in figure 1. Dip switch configuration enables various features - front panel TARE push button function, Peak Mode selection, Analog signal source of either the Fast or Select signal from the main 3700 unit, and Threshold detection levels for Have Peak Capture and logic triggering.

Rear panel connector terminals are used for remote control using logic switches or PLC type I/O control to activate / reset meter functions. Logic I/O signals for Peak Arming and Clearing (tracking) of the Peak capture value, switching the display from Live to Peak, Have Peak output and front panel enabling of the TARE switch for Peak/Reset of the captured value. The resultant analog captured signal is available via the "PEAK" connector terminal as noted in section 3 - Connections.

Threshold adjustment potentiometer located to the right of the Peak I/O connection is used for level adjustment of the "Have Peak" detection around the input signal's Zero level. This adjustment is used to prevent low-level signal content from triggering an inadvertent "Peak Hold". Adjustment level is viewable from the front panel (SW 6 Down) and is adjustable from 1 to 8% of full scale.

2. DIP Switch Configuration

Located on the rear panel above the main board connections, the 7 position dip switch configures the PEAK functions of the meter. The Default position of the switch is in the UP (ON) position as noted in the table below.

4. Setup conditions for the "P" option and TARE switch operation

When the "P" option is installed - the front panel "TARE" Push/Push switch can be configured to operate in three separate function modes for local operation depending on the DIP switch selection and/or logic inputs selected.

Function Mode of the TARE switch

1. Standard "TARE" capability for normal operation - Will TARE the input measurement of the analog signal and the display to "Zero". LED will light GREEN when active and within normal offset TARE range. Remote TARE via the rear connector functions in a similar fashion.
2. PEAK capture or Track mode - When the TARE switch is depressed, the meter will be in "track" mode following the input signal amplitude. When the TARE switch is released (outward position) the meter is armed and ready to capture the Peak as configured by Dip Switch 2 & 3.
3. Used for local control of the Front Panel display -TARE button depressed will display the PEAK reading. Outward position of the switch will display the "Live" reading. Switch action will not perform a Peak reset operation, this must be done via connection terminal 2's activation for TRACK - PEAK.

Note: If the Peak option is installed in a Model 3740 Frequency conditioner, the TARE mode switch functionality is only accessible via the rear logic connector input

Function Mode Setup and configuration details

1. Standard TARE operation Default condition

- Dip Switch 4 & 5 UP, Peak Input connection Pin 5 and 6 are not used. Remote connections for remote TARE are available. Refer to the main meter manual for details.

2. Front Panel Peak Reset Function

- Dip Switch 4 & 5 DOWN or Switch 4 DOWN and Input connection Pin 5 Grounded (True). Input connection Pin 6 can not be used. Remote TARE function operates via main meter connector.

3. Local Display of Live or Peak Reading

- Dip Switch 4 & 5 UP, Input connection Pin 5 not utilized, Pin 6 is grounded (True). Remote TARE function operates via main meter connector.

4. Interface I/O Connections

Interface Connector Operation

The 8 pin rear connector provides remote access to the Peak operational parameters. All logic I/O are negative true signals - logic common when active or true.

Functional diagrams of the logic for enabling PEAK functions are shown in Fig. 3 thru 6. Typically usage of the I/O connections are for remote control of the application sequence to "handshake" with a controller for proper operation of the measurement capture and resetting process of the PEAK Mode function.

Display Source and Front Panel TARE button mode of operationl are available to provide remote control enabling of the local operation of the 3700 Peak features as configured by the 7 postion dip switch settings as described in section 2.

Analog Output of the PEAK Mode function is available. The Analog level is dependent on the configuration of the main analog controls of the 3700 unit... +/- 5 V or +/- 10 Vdc full scale level. Analog output, when in the HOLD or PEAK capture mode, is accomplished using capacitive memory and will have a "leak" rate of 1 millivolt per 10 seconds.

Note: When in Max-Min mode the analog signal may overrange due to the summing of the + Peak and - Peak captured signal.

TIR Mode - captures and holds the most positive signal and the most negative signal amplitude in the positive quadrant of the measurement. Switch 2 DOWN - Switch 3 DOWN

Fig 6

Threshold Level Adjust and Have Peak Detection (Backout)

Switch 6 - PEAK THRESHOLD DISPLAY ADJUST on the rear panel dip switch: When in the DOWN position, will switch the front panel display to provide level adjustment of the Threshold Potentiometer to provide a "No Peak Zone" around the Zero level. This adjustment is used to eliminate false Peak Captures around the zero measurement level as shown in the gray area of the Fig. 7 below. Adjustment is from 1 to 8% of the full scale reading.

Switch 7 - HAVE PEAK DETECT (Backout): Selects the amplitude of the "delta" between the live signal and the detection of a Peak value which has occurred. Sometimes referred to as "Backout" as shown in the circle graphics below. This level sets the recognition level of when a PEAK has occurred. Level is 0.1% (DOWN) or 1.0% (UP) of full scale. Setting will depend on signal dynamic content and the sharpness of the peak event. Placement of Switch 1 (Analog Signal Source) will also have an affect on this setting due to the analog filtering response of the FAST or the SELECTED analog signal as determined by the response time of the FAST signal for the 3700 Model or the Select Analog Filter per the Analog Control switches located on the main 3700 unit.....switch 3 & 4.

Quick Set-up operation

1. Determine the Peak Mode required

Configure switch settings 2 and 3 for the proper function.

2. Select FAST or SELECT signal source

Configure switch 1 - FAST will be the highest dynamic capture. SELECT will reflect the low pass filter selection on the main 3700 Analog Controls.

3. Select the Front Panel Operation of the TARE Switch

Configure switch 5 - Normal operation of the TARE switch to provide "zero-ing" of the analog signal or to use the TARE switch as a front panel PEAK -TRACK "push-push" operation to place the 3700 unit is PEAK capture Mode or Reset the PEAK that has been held resulting in the display and analog output signal tracking the live input. Push IN - PEAK. Push OUT - TRACK.

4. Select the Operation of the Display

Switch 4 - Meter display can be configured for LIVE display or the PEAK capture value. If the unit is a "stand-alone" meter with the local operator providing the Peak Reset, as mentioned in step 3, then Switch 4 should be DOWN for PEAK display operation. Remote control of the display can also be done via the I/O connections with an external switch or controller providing the Display control function.

5. Determine how much "threshold" level is needed for your application

Switch 6 will display the threshold value (1 to 8%) for a bi-polar "no peak detection zone" around the Zero measurement level. This adjustment is normally in the 5% area, but can be adjusted depending on the application and how much PEAK defeat / rejection is needed. When finished with the potentiometer adjustment, return Switch 6 to the UP position.

6. Determine the need for remote control of your application

Refer to the Connector I/O interface in section 3 for setup functions of the 8 positon terminal connector. Switch function 4 and 5 can be remotely controlled. All other switch settings are typically configured during initial setup of the 3700 unit and will not be changed.

Peak Capture Response

The Peak Capture of the analog signal is performed using “capacitive” memory. This technique is very repeatable and does not involve digital sampling errors. It does, however, result in a millivolt/second “leak rate” after the initial “capture” which varies depending on the Peak Capture cycle rate, amplitude of the analog signal and the wave shape of the signal being monitored. Below are the leak rate values as expressed in percent of full scale using defined parameters of a single square wave pulse input of 1, 10 and 100 milliseconds in duration at the full scale value of 5.000 V.

Square Wave Full Scale Error after Peak was captured

Pulse Width	10 mS	100 mS	1 Sec
1 mS	0.10%	0.15%		0.20%
10 mS	0.05%	0.07%	0.10%
100 mS	0.02%	0.02%	0.06%
