requirement for any software or hardware conversion, as all software graphics
and screens can be viewed immediately when utilising the twisted pair cable and
power supply. Rack R84 Pre-assembled 19" slide-in module Rack R42 Desk Top Housing |
The modular component concept makes it possible to select the most appropriate
operational and display modules to configure the best possible PC terminal solution
for the application. Download Brochure on MTL6000 Series (.pdf file, 8 pages) |

This display provides an indication in hazardous-areas either loop powered or controlled by a signal from the safe-area.
Configuration is carried out by using the front panel
switches (which may be password protected).
Range, units, upper and lower
limits, decimal point positioning and number of digits displayed are all configured
via the front panel.

Use the MTL660 to display process variables in hazardous and safe plant areas. All versions are loop-powered from 420mA signals.
These
indicators are generally signal powered and the low voltage drop across the input
terminals allows them to be installed in almost any 2-wire, 4-20mA loop.
Alternatively, they may be used, for example, for the re-transmission of mass/flow
computations from the safe area, through a suitable MTL IS interface to the indicator
in the safe area.
All units can indicate measurements in either a linear
or square root extraction mode, the latter being used, for example, to display
directly the flow from differential pressure measurements using an orifice plate,
Dall tube, or venturi.
Large liquid crystal displays make the process variables
easily visible at a distance.
Process units are configured into the display
area.
Instant readout of percentage or loop current is available at the push
of a button.
Field mounting units are housed in a rugged aluminium IP67,
NEMA 4X case. An ABS option is available for highly corrosive atmospheres.

Datasheet (.pdf file)
The MTL646/7 text displays are located in the hazardous area where they display alphanumeric data & graphics from a safe area host controller. This is transmitted by a serial data link passing through an MTL5051 isolating interface. This serves the dual purpose of isolating the IS indicator and converting RS232 or RS422 serial data to the MTL signal level and vice versa. Bi-directional communication permits operators to acknowledge messages and to request process action when necessary. If required, an audible or visual alarm can be connected to attract the operators attention.
A clear dot matrix display (128 x 64) can display text (in a number of sizes) and process graphics. The backlight permits operation during darkness. Operator control can be provided viea the front panel push buttons or via externa terminals to remote switches. These can be used for alarm acknowledgement, or to advance or stop the process.
The controller maintains master control, requiring all remote display units to respond to its commands. In multi-indicator applications, it transmits a block of information which includes the indicator type, address and data. Data is transmitted in the form of ASCII characters interpreted by the appropriate ndicator which either updates the display or responds with a reply such as indicator status or switch status. In single indicator applications, the protocol may be simplified to direct data transmission for communication with less sophisticated host units including PLCs, dedicated control instrumentation and weighing systems. The MTL646/7 may be configured to emulate the MTL643/4. Mechanical compatibility allows direct replacement with panel mounted MTL644 displays.
Two alarm outputs are provided for connection to suitable visual or audible alarm units to attract the operators attention.
The MTL647 field mounting unit is housed in a tough impact-resistant case designed to withstand the rigours of hostile weather conditions and harsh industrial environments. Ingress protection rating is IP66. It can be mounted directly onto a flat surface or, with an optional kit, onto vertical or horizontal pipes or posts.
The MTL646 panel mounting unit is designed for DIN standard
72 x 144mm cut-out. The panel/unit seal is rated at IP40 while, with standard
snap-on mounting clips, the panel/unit seal is rated IP40. This can
be uprated to IP65 with the optional IPK68 sealing kit.

The MTL643/4 IS text displays are located in the hazardous area where they display alphanumeric data from a safe-area host controller. This is transmitted by a serial data link passing through an MTL5051 isolating interface. This serves the dual purpose of isolating the IS indicator and converting RS232 or RS422 serial data to the MTL signal level and vice versa. Bi-directional communication permits operators to acknowledge messages and to request process action when necessary. If required, an audible or visual alarm can be connected to attract the operators attention.
A clear and unambiguous alphanumeric display is provided by liquid crystal module with two lines of up to sixteen 9mm high characters. All 32 characters may be alphanumeric so process values,engineering units, tag idents and operator messages are easily displayed.
Operator control is provided by three external switches (not supplied) which are connected to terminals on the indicator and which can be used to acknowledge alarm messages and change process information such as the resetting of the tare in a weighing system.
The controller maintains master control, requiring all remote display units to respond to its commands. In multi-indicator applications, it transmits a block of information which includes the indicator type, address and data. Data is transmitted in the form of ASCII characters interpreted by the appropriate ndicator which either updates the display or responds with a reply such as indicator status or switch status. In single indicator applications, the protocol may be simplified to direct data transmission for communication with less sophisticated host units including PLCs, dedicated control instrumentation and weighing systems.
A single alarm output (an opto-isolated open collector transistor output) is provided for connection to a suitable visual or audible alarm unit to attract the operators attention.
Error checking routines are carried out by the indicator, the result being stored in the status data register where it can be accessed by the host computer.
MTL643 field mounting unit is housed in a tough impact-resistant GRP case designed to withstand the rigours of hostile weather conditions and harsh industrial environments. Ingress protection rating is IP66. It can be mounted directly onto a flat surface or with an optional PIP68 kit, onto vertical or horizontal pipes or posts.
