Quick-Start

Most users familiar with a PC and Windows will not have a need for the information in this

manual. Moore Industries suggests that if you do need to refer to the information here,

rely heavily on theTable of Contents that follow this Quick-Start Guide.

The majority of conﬁguration work with these transmitters can be carried out from the

Main Conﬁguration Screen of the PC Conﬁguration Program (see Figure 3, page 8). The

menus and screen prompts are in“plain english”, and the help system should guide most

users through most of the conﬁguration procedures without any problems.

In general, the use of the TRY or TRX transmitter follows this path:

1. Installing the Conﬁguration Software (page 10)

2. Connecting the TRY/TRX to the PC (page 10)

3. Input Connection Hookups (page 11)

4. Scale the Input (page 15)

5. Scale the Output (page 16)

6. Trim the Input (page 17)

7. Trim the Output (page 17)

8. Download the Conﬁguration File (press PROG button)

9. Save the Conﬁguration File to disk for future reference or

use with another unit (page 22)

10. Install the unit (page 23)

Introduction

The TRY and TRX are 2-wire (loop-powered)

temperature transmitters. They are conﬁgured using

a personal computer (PC) and the software program

provided by Moore Industries.

About this Manual

Wherever you see a “Note”, “Caution”, or “WARNING

” pay particular attention.

• A“Note” provides information to help you avoid mi-

nor inconveniences during calibration, installation,

or operation of the TRY andTRX.

• A“Caution” provides information on steps to take

in avoiding procedures and practices that could risk

damage to the TRY and TRX or other equipment.

• A“WARNING ” provides information on steps to

take in avoiding procedures and practices that

could pose safety risks to personnel.

Figure 1. Use the PC-Programmable TRY or TRX as an interface between temperature sensors and control systems such as a DCS, PLC or

PC-based control system.

The TRY &TRX

Both the TRY and the TRX transmit input from a

thermocouple, or an RTD, a direct resistance or

millivolt source, or a potentiometer as a linearized,

scaled and offset 4-20 milliamps (mA). Their output

signal is proportional (or, by user designation inversely

proportional) to the input. Refer to Figure 1.

The TRY provides 1500Vrms isolation between

input and output (500Vrms isolation for the DIN-style

version). The TRX is a non-isolating transmitter.

Ordering Information

Model and Serial Numbers Moore Industries uses a

system of model and serial numbers to keep track of

all of the information on every unit it sells and services.

If a problem occurs with aTRY or TRX, check for a tag

afﬁxed to the unit listing these numbers. Supply the

Customer Support representative with this information

when calling.

If additional units are needed, use the information

printed in bold text in the table above to “build” a

model number for the type of transmitter required.

To order additional or replacement cables, specify

Moore Industries’ part number 803-040-26, or

803-039-26 for the special cable equipped with its

own, self-powered input-to-output isolation circuit for

operation in areas of high ground potentials.

Each TRY or TRX order comes with one copy of our

Conﬁguration Software (Windows 2000, XP, Vista, and

7 compatible).

Conﬁguring aTRY/TRX

One of the beneﬁts of the TRY and TRX transmitters is

their easy-to-use PC Conﬁguration Program; there are

no internal or external controls to adjust or jumpers

to change. All operating parameters are set using

the PC program included with each shipment. These

settings are downloaded in the form of a Conﬁguration

File into nonvolatile unit memory (EEPROM) over a

connection between the PC’s serial (COM) port and a

COM port on the transmitter.

This section of the manual contains instructions for

What is First

First, it is necessary to install the Conﬁguration

Program on a PC. Once the program is loaded and

running, nearly all of the operating parameters for the

connected transmitter are shown on a single screen

(see Figure 3). This makes it easy to determine which

aspects of transmitter operation need to be changed

to suit the application requirements.

What is Next

Once the Conﬁguration Program is installed on the

PC, the TRY or TRX can be connected to equipment

to simulate input and monitor output, and with the PC

program, the user can view and/or change its

operating parameters.

NoTransmitter Needed

It is not necessary to connect the TRY or TRX to a PC

to create conﬁguration ﬁles. The Conﬁguration

Program can be run without connecting a transmitter,

and most operating parameters can be set without

beneﬁt of input from a sensor or from a transmitter.

This makes it easy to create a set of operating

parameters, save them to disk, and download them to

one or more transmitters at a later time.

Note, however, that not all parameters can be set

without a transmitter. In some cases, a source of input

is also required.

Gathering the Equipment Needed

It is possible to create a Conﬁguration File for a

transmitter without ever connecting the transmitter to

a PC. Most TRY or TRX operating parameters can

be set up, saved in a Conﬁguration File, and stored

on disk entirely within the Conﬁguration Program—

without ever communicating with a transmitter.

Installing the Conﬁguration

Software

Refer to Table below for the equipment needed.

1. Insert the Moore Industries Interface

Solution PC Conﬁguration Software CD into

the CD drive of the PC. Access the CD and

open the “SDY SIY TDY TRX TRY PC

Conﬁguration Software” folder.

2. Double-click the installation program

located in the folder. Follow the prompts to

correctly install the program.

Once the Conﬁguration Program is installed on the

PC, the SIY can be connected to equipment to

simulate input and monitor output. This makes it easy

to create a set of operating parameters, save them to

disk, and download them to one or more instruments

at a later time.

Connecting theTRY or TRX to the

Connect the RS-232 end of the cable to the

PC’s COM port.

See Table below for information on the

necessary equipment.

It is not possible to trim the transmitter input or

output without a transmitter, a source of input,

and a meter (for output trimming). Likewise, it is

not possible to use the Loop Test function of the

transmitter unless everything is setup as shown in

Figure 2, and it is not possible to store a tag name in

the memory of a transmitter without connecting that

transmitter to the Conﬁguration Program.

Table 2 lists the things needed to setup the TRY or

TRX as shown in Figure 2.

Note:

Be sure to use calibrated test equipment when

performing any trimming operations on the TRY or

TRX. Moore Industries uses equipment rated 5:1

over the rated accuracy of the unit under test.

We recommend the use of equipment

rated at least 3:1.
