1 PRELIMINARY INSTRUCTIONS
This section contains information and warnings of a general nature which should be read before procee-
ding with controller installation, configuration and use.
General description
GF_Looper is an advanced series of multichannel con-
trollers, offered in configurations of up to 16 channels and
structured for simple use and complete functionality for
managing a wide range of applications.
GRAPHIC INTERFACE
The operator interface, based on LCD TFT color touch
screen (3.5” and 5.7”) offers maximum simplicity of use.
A series of graphic pages structured with different details
provide complete monitoring of GF_Looper operation.
Icons facilitate access to the graphic pages, making navi-
gation immediate and reliable.
Group pages offer an overview of enabled zones, with
display of principal data such as PV, SP, output power,
state of main alarms.
To simplify a few repetitive operations, the group page
offers a control to activate/deactivate control actions for
all configured zones, a control (Up/Down) for synchroni-
zed change of all work Set Points in control zones, and
selection between SP and SP2 for immediate production
change.
Detail pages of single control zones provide a complete
view of the state of all standard control parameters, such
as PID and alarm thresholds.
Any fault conditions, such as broken or short-circuited
sensor, or partial or total load interrupt, are displayed
both as alarms and graphically with dedicated icons.
ALARM AND RECIPE MANAGEMENT
Integrated alarms management combined with an alarm
notice on all pages provides an immediate check of work
conditions of the controlled process.
An acknowledgement and deletion command is provided
for all alarms.
For recipes, the work parameters of all configured zones
can be saved to file.
This management simplifies machine setup operations in
case of production changes and guarantees error-proof
operation.
USER LEVEL AND MULTI-LANGUAGE MANAGEMENT
So that the GF_Looper may be used by operators of
different nationalities, multi-language management provi-
des simple and intuitive video messages translated into
the selected language.
Pre-set password levels guarantee controlled access to
the various functions according to the authorization assi-
gned to each operator.
DATA STORAGE
Trend pages with variable selection and sampling time
configuration (min/sec) offer paperless recording fun-
ctions.
Storage of sampled Trend data on file also provides inte-
grated DataLogging functions.
DataLogging values can be exported to .CSV file and
transferred to PC on a USB drive. Start/Stop recording
commands let you optimize the number of stored data
for better analysis.
REMOTE ACCESS
An Ethernet connection with Modbus TCP protocol provi-
des an efficient tool to link GF_Looper to HMI acquisition
or supervision systems.
A complete map of variables with all general information
on GF_Looper operation and configuration is provided for
data exchange with a Modbus TCP master.
For remote diagnostics or machine setup functions,
there is a simple solution based on the graphic part of
GF_Looper that uses a Windows PC with Ethernet con-
nection to the field instrument.
CONTROLLER
Advanced control algorithms provide excellent manage-
ment of process variables.
Various types of control are possible: ON/OFF, P, PI,
PID, both heat or cool only and heat+cool.
In addition, cooling can be set by specifying the fluid
used: air, oil, water.
Calculation of the best process parameters is extremely
rapid and efficient thanks to the use of sophisticated
automatic tuning processes.
The use of advanced tuning lets you check the best PID
parameters under all conditions.
ALARMS
Two alarm thresholds (minimum and maximum) for
each zone.
For each alarm, you can select:
- the control variable to be assigned
- the threshold value
- the hysteresis value
- 5 properties (with latch, disable at power-on, deviation/
symmetrical, absolute/relative, direct/inverse).
LBA, HB, SBR alarms can be set; the presence of the
alarm is displayed on the screen via LEDs.

2 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
This section contains the instructions necessary
for correct installation of the GF_LOOPER into
the machine control panel or the host system
and for correct connection of the controller
power supply, inputs, outputs and interfaces.
Before proceeding with installation read the
following warnings carefully!
Remember that lack of observation of these
warnings could lead to problems of electrical safety
and electromagnetic compatibility, as well as invali-
dating the warranty.
Electrical power supply
• theGF_LOOPERisNOTequippedwithanOn/Off
switch: the user must provide a two-phase
disconnecting switch that conforms to the required
safety standards (CE marking), to cut off the power
supply upstream of the controller.
The switch must be located in the immediate vicinity
of the controller and must be within easy reach of the
operator.
One switch may control more than one instrument
• ifthecontrollerisconnectedtoNOTisolatedelectrical
equipment (e.g. thermocouples), the earth connection
must be made with a specific conductor to prevent
the connection itself from coming directly through the
machine structure.
• iftheGF_LOOPERisusedinapplicationswithriskof
damage to persons, machinery or materials, it is
essential to connect it up to auxiliary alarm
equipment. It is advisable to make sure that alarm
signals are also triggered during normal operation.
The controller must NOT be installed in flammable or
explosive environments; it may be connected to
equipment operating in such atmospheres only by
means of appropriate and adequate types of
interface, conforming to the applicable safety
standards.
Notes Concerning Electrical Safety and
Electromagnetic Compatibility:
CE MARKING: EMC Conformity (electromagnetic
compatibility)
in accordance with EEC Directive 2004/108/CE.
GF_LOOPER series are mainly designed to operate in
industrial environments, installed on the switch boards
or control panels of productive process machines or
plants. As regards electromagnetic compatibility, the
strictest generic standards have been adopted, as indi-
cated in the table below.

The internal power supply 24Vdc is galvanically isolated and protected against polarity reversal and short circuits.
The panel has a power terminal.
The connector diagram is shown in Figure 11
Note:
check that the power supply is able to deliver the power needed for correct operation of the device.
The device must always be grounded. Grounding helps limit the effects of electromagnetic noise on the control
system. All electronic devices of the control system must be grounded. Ground the devices in a manner confor-
ming to applicable standards and regulations.

3.4.2 RS-485 port
The terminal uses the RS-485 port to dialog according to OSI specifications at the physical level defined by stan-
dard EIA-485.
The RS-485 port is optically isolated and allows dialog from 9.6 kBaud to 115 kBaud via an RJ10 4p4c connector
(Registered Jack type 10 with 4 positions and 4 contacts). Signal assignment is shown in Table 5.
Length and type of connection cable between GF_PROMER and GFX / GFX4 / GFX4-IR / GFXTERMO4 units:
- standard telephone up to 10m
- shielded cable up to 150m (shield to GND)
- woven and shielded cable (Belden, shield to GND) for distances > 150m up to a maximum of 1200m

6 MAINTENANCE
This section gives the information and the necessary
warnings for routine maintenance of the controllers
and contains a Troubleshooting Guide which should
be read before seeking help from the Gefran
Customer Service Assistance, in the event of instru-
ment malfunction.
If installed and configured correctly according to the instruc-
tions and the recommendations provided in Sections 2 and 4
of these Instructions for use, the Controller will work normally
without any need for maintenance, apart from the usual ope-
rations of cleaning the faceplate, and if necessary the internal
parts of the instrument.
Cleaning the Controller
To clean the faceplate and the case use only a cloth
dampened in water or ethyl alcohol.
Do not use hydrocarbon-based solvents
(trichiorethylene, petrol, etc.).
Do not use compressed air to remove dust from the
electronic circuit boards, if necessary use a clean
brush with soft bristles.
Repairs
Repairs to the Controller must only be carried out by
qualified technicians, properly trained and authorized
by Gefran.
Any attempts at repair or modification of the Controller
hardware characteristics by unauthorized personnel
will invalidate the warranty.
