2101 Field Wizard

Section 1 Introduction

1.1 Introduction This instruction manual is designed to help you gain a thorough

understanding of the operation of the 2101 Field Wizard.

Teledyne Isco recommends that you read this manual completely

before placing the equipment into service.

1.2 Product Description The 2101 Field Wizard is a portable data interrogation unit

designed to collect data from Isco’s 2100 Series flow modules,

which measure parameters of open channel flow streams. It then

transfers that data to Isco’s Flowlink 4 for Windows software.

The Field Wizard also serves as a local display and keypad for a

2100 Series site. The eight-line by forty-character graphics

display provides quick access to current readings and diagnostic

information, and allows for calibration of level measurements.

The Field Wizard stacks on top of a 2100 Series module, using

the same locking mechanism that connects the 2100 Series

modules to each other. Because modules have unique assigned

names, the Field Wizard can retrieve data from multiple modules

and can be easily moved from site to site.

The Field Wizard uses flash memory, which retains data without

the concern of power failures or aging backup batteries. The data

storage memory can hold up to fourteen days worth of data

recorded at fifteen minute intervals from twenty different

modules.

All enclosures are rated NEMA 4X, 6P and IP68. The perma-

nently sealed enclosures are designed to meet the environmental

demands of many sewer flow monitoring applications. All connec-

tions between modules, sensors, and communication cables "lock"

in place. The locking mechanisms strongly secure the compo-

nents and ensure a watertight seal.

Its rugged, compact design and simplicity of use make the Field

Wizard a convenient alternative to using a laptop computer for

displaying site data or transferring data from the 2100 Series

module to a personal computer.

1.3 Identifying Module

Components

Figures 1-2 through 1-3 identify the key components of the 2101

Field Wizard.

The Field Wizard is operated from the top panel, which contains

a keypad and liquid crystal display. The keypad, shown in Figure

1-1, includes 26 keys that are used to program and operate the

Field Wizard.

Figure 1-1 Field Wizard Keypad and Display

The keypad contains six software configured function keys (soft

keys) that are used to make selections and navigate through

menus. Their specific functions will depend upon what operation

you are performing, and will be shown in the display window.

The four arrow keys are used for navigation within menus and

displays. The Enter key is used to complete data entry,

acknowledge prompts, and signal the start of certain operations.

Numeric keys are active when numeric data is to be entered.

Press the Help key to obtain context sensitive help.

The Power key places the unit into an ultra low power state,

during which the display window will be blank.

The Escape key is not currently used. During some operations,

one of the function keys will serve as a Cancel key.

The unit is equipped with an audible beeper. The beeper

acknowledges key presses, and signals errors when incorrect

entries are made.

2.3 Connecting To

Flowlink

Before you use your Field Wizard in the field to collect data, you

need to synchronize it to Isco’s Flowlink software on a personal

computer (PC).

Use the following instructions to connect to Flowlink for the first

time. More detailed information about transferring data to

Flowlink can be found in Section 3.3.

Use Isco’s communication cable P/N 60-2004-046 and AC

Adapter (P/N 60-2004-057) to connect the Field Wizard to a PC,

as shown in Figures 2-1 and 2-2.

Uncap the communication connector on the underside of the

Field Wizard, and store the connector cap in its holder. Then plug

the AC Adapter into the communication connector, as shown in

Figure 2-1. Plug the other end of the AC Adapter into a grounded

electrical outlet.

Uncap the communication connector on the right side of the Field

Wizard and attach the Communications Cable, as shown in

Figure 2-2. Connect the other end of the Communications Cable

to a serial COM port on the PC.

As a default Flowlink setting, the Quick Connect dialog box

opens when you start Flowlink. (If it is not open, click the Quick

Connect icon or select File, Quick Connect.)

Click the large Field Wizard button to connect. Flowlink will

read the 2101 system information and try to match it with an

existing site in the open database. It will then display the Site

Info tab of the Site Window (Figure 2-3).

Complete the following steps:

1. Click the Synchronize Instrument’s Time to Com-

puter’s button to synchronize the Field Wizard’s time to

that of your PC. (If you are using multiple PCs, select just

one PC to synchronize with.)

2. The Field Wizard is shipped with default site and module

names. Use the Site Name and Module Name fields if

you want to provide more descriptive names. Select Apply

(F9) to write that information to the instrument.

3. Although data has not yet been collected, you need to click

Retrieve Data (F8). This transfers a file containing site

interrogation times from Flowlink to the Field Wizard.

With this information, the Field Wizard will know when

data was last retrieved from your site(s). When brought to

a site, the Field Wizard will then retrieve only the neces-

sary data.

4. Select Disconnect to end your PC session and disconnect

the Field Wizard.

2.4 Connecting To a Site Once you have connected the Field Wizard to Flowlink and set up

the initial configuration, you can connect the Field Wizard to a

site and retrieve data.

The Field Wizard module connects to the top of a 2100 Series

stack, which may contain multiple modules. The steps shown in

Sections 2.4.1 - 2.4.3 illustrate how to operate latches and con-

nectors and connect the Field Wizard to the site.

2.4.1 Latches - Locking and

Unlocking

Latches must be operated to stack and unstack the modules in a

Series 2100 stack. The mechanisms are the same for the Field

Wizard and other 2100 Series modules. Take a moment to famil-

iarize yourself with operating the latches. The latch is operated

by pushing on one of the sides — the right side to unlock, and the

left side to lock.

CAUTION

The latch can be damaged by applying too much force. Never

press on both sides at the same time. Do not force the latch if it

is obstructed. While some degree of pressure must be applied

to slide the latch, the ends of the latches should never bend

more than

1

/8".

L’attache peut-être endommagée en la forçant. Ne jamais

presser simultanément des deux côtés à la fois. Ne pas forcer

en cas de résistance. Ne jamais tordre les extrémités des

attaches de plus de 3 mm.

Figure 2-4 shows how to unlock the latch. You must unlock the

latch to place the module on top of a stack. Otherwise, the latch

is normally locked.

Figure 2-5 shows how to lock the latch.

Note

Latches will “click” when they are fully locked and unlocked.
