FMS to TH140/TH140D Integration

Figure 1.3: Humidity Setup

1. Set the switch positio n to mA. Set the temperature ran ge to
50-95 or 32-122. The Sensor is shippe d from th e facto ry with
the switch in the volts po sition and the te mp erature range is
set for 50-95F. The switch po sition must be se t to the mA
position.

2. Wire th e sensor as shown.

5. Ver ify the "Calc" Valu e d isp lays th e corre ct r oom tempera ture .
The tempe rature can also be viewed on the Falcon ma in page.

SETUP

1. Calculate the TH140 Output cur rent for te mpe rature.

TRO UBLESHOO TING

2. Measure th e curr ent flowing into the Falcon Ch- terminal with a
current me ter. Ver ify that it is close to the calcula ted curren t
(+/-1%)

Example if Room Te mp is 70F an d you r sensor has a ra nge of 50-95

3. If measured current curr ent do es not ma tch calcula ted curren t
then ch eck wi ring and check TH140/TH140D ju mp er a nd switch
settings.

4. Compare the me asu red cur rent matches the cu rrent re ading in
the Fal con.

5. Check the wir ing if th e Falcon current readin g d oes no t match
the me asu red cu rrent re ading.

6. If th e Falcon current readin g matches the measured current
and the Fa lco n calculated value does not match the room
temperature then the offset and gain values are wr ong.
Double check the Gain and Offset va lues.

7. If th e tempera ture di spla ye d in the Fa lco n is 1 or 2 deg rees
abo ve or belo w th e r oom tempera ture then adju st the offset b y
1 or 2. Do not adj ust the ga in. Onl y tweak th e o ffse t once the
previou s tr oubleshoo tin g steps ha ve bee n p erfo rmed.

8. If th e Falcon still doe s not d isp lay the cor rect te mp erature
contact RL E Techno logies technical suppor t at 970.484.651 0.
