Important:

Please consult the CRP5 user manual as well as the HW4 manual for the CRP5 devices for further details.

Note:

The CRP5 has no DHCP function and no host name. It can be addressed only by the fixed IP address.

Important:

The Digi Device Discovery Tool does not work with the CRP5

Step 1

Log in to the RMS software. Select "Tools" > "Setup" > "Devices". Select the RMS-CONVERTER and click on "Add/Search" devices:

Step 2

Select the device type in the drop down menu.

It is possible to type the IP address or host name into the "IP address" field.

IMPORTANT:

If the field stays empty, RMS will not search for the device automatically.

Step 3

The device appears: configure accordingly.

NOTE:

The interval cannot be shorter than the interval of the RMS-CONVERTER-100.

IMPORTANT:

If all check marks for measurement points are not set during initial installation and you wish to expand it later, then the same device needs to be added again with the same identification and IP address (there is no need to delete the device before adding it). The desired check marks can then be set. After completing this process, the added or updated measurement points will appear.

Step 4

The device is added.

Step 5

IMPORTANT: Overwritten settings.

By adding the device to RMS via the RMS-CONVERTER-100, the following configuration will be overwritten on the device:

oFix value humidity: disabled

oFix value temperature: disabled

oFix value differential pressure: disabled

oFix value calculation: disabled

oFix value analog input: disabled

oFix value digital input: disabled

oDefault relative humidity unit: %rh

oDefault temperature unit: °C

oDefault pressure unit: Pa

oDefault analogue input unit: empty

oDefault ambient pressure unit: hPa

oLink alarm on every measurement parameter to relay: disabled

NOTE:

If one of the settings above is changed with HW4 further to the initial installation into RMS, then RMS will not note the change. However, such a change would cause RMS will not work correctly. The changes will however be overwritten should the RMS-CONVERTER-100 reboot (due to a short power interruption).

Step 6

Finish configuration.

Step 1

Device settings: log in to the RMS software. Select "Tools" > "Setup" > "Devices". Select the device.

oStatus: the device can be disabled/enabled. When disabled, the RMS-CONVERTER-100 will not send any requests.

oSettings: Any settings can be changed and confirmed by clicking on "Save".

oProperties: Show. The settings can be shown and configured.

IMPORTANT:

Under "Options", "the firmware update", "import firmware file", "import device definition" and "device inventory" are not supported for this device.

IMPORTANT:

The output range, the sources and the measurement ranges of the analog outputs 1 and 2, can be scaled and stored within the device clicking "Apply".

Step 2

Measurement point settings: log in to the RMS software. Select "Tools" > "Setup" > "Measuring point".

Select the measuring point:

oStatus: the measuring point can be disabled/enabled.

oSettings: Any settings can be changed and confirmed by clicking on "Save".

Step 3

Adjustment: log in to the RMS software. Select "Tools" > "Adjustment". Select the measuring point. Click on "Refresh now".

General procedure:

oType the humidity reference value and click "Acquire"

oRepeat until the desired number of adjustment points are acquired.

NOTE:

The user of this feature must take care about sufficient stable circumstances for a data acquisition. Please take the interval into account. One value after every 60 seconds does not detect short-term changes of the value.

oClick "Adjust" to finish.

oUse the "Acquire + Adjust" button for one point adjustment.

oClick "Delete user adjustment" to delete the last user adjustment.

The CRP5 has different adjustment scenarios for differential pressure.

Common adjustment

The CRP5 can be adjusted at multiple reference pressure values.

NOTE:

Any differential pressure adjustment overwrites the previous customer adjustment.

➢0-Point compensation

To compensate long term drift, a 0-Point compensation is recommended.

1.Type in 0 as the reference value and click "Acquire + Adjust" (or "Acquire" and then "Adjust")

2.A valve closes the "+" and "-" connectors of the sensor internally and defines a new 0-point. This procedure needs app. 10 sec. The CRP5 will not be able to send measurement values out during this time.

NOTE:

A new 0-Point compensation overwrites the previous 0-Point compensation, but doesn’t overwrites the current One point (≠0 Pa) adjustment (see below).

NOTE:

Do not use a reference value of e. g. 0.1 Pa. The CRP5 would interpret it as a "One point adjustment" as follows. In this case, the CRP5 would display a strong measurement error for higher pressure values.

NOTE:

The real date and reference value cannot be shown due to missing compatibility of these systems.

➢One point (≠0 Pa) adjustment

The CRP5 can be adjusted at an applied pressure (≠0 Pa) by the customer. Rotronic recommends to apply a pressure around the end of the measurement range.

One point (≠0 Pa) adjustment at the RMS:

1.Type "xxPa" as the reference value and click "Acquire + Adjust" (or "Acquire" and then "Adjust")

NOTE:

Rotronic recommends to perform a 0-Point compensation before.

NOTE:

In case of the CRP5, a customer adjustment with more than one pressure reference value is not possible. The CRP5 accepts only these two adjustment procedures.

NOTE:

The real date and reference value cannot be shown due to missing compatibility of these systems.

NOTE:

A new One point (≠0 Pa) adjustment overwrites the last One point (≠0 Pa) adjustment, but doesn’t overwrites the current 0-point compensation (see above).

For relative humidity and temperature:

Humidity 2 points acquired

Humidity 2 points adjusted

NOTE:

For humidity, multiple points can be acquired and adjusted.  For temperature, 1 or 2 points.

Step 4

Data logging: the CRP5 has no internal memory, the CRP5 is not battery powered. So the CRP5 cannot log during a power interruption.

In case of a communication interruption to the RMS Server, the RMS-CONVERTER-100 logs the data of the CRP5. After the interruption, RMS requests the data from the RMS-CONVERTER-100.

In case of a communication interruption between the RMS-CONVERTER-100 and the CRP5, the CRP5 would not log the data.

Step 5

Sensor errors within the HygroClip will not be transmitted to RMS.

Step 6

Measurement alarm: Alarms linked to the measurement limits and programmed within the HC2 will not be transmitted to RMS. However if the device has a display and the display is configured correctly, the alarm will show on the display.

Step 7

Fix values on the HC2: fixed measurement values programmed within the HC2 are not displayed as simulators within RMS.
