4 Principle of operation
4.1 General
T400 tachometers are controlled by a microprocessor. They work according to the period measurement
principle whereby the input period is measured with subsequent computing of the reciprocal value
corresponding to the frequency or speed. The relationship between frequency and speed is established with
the Machine factor.

The analogue output (current or voltage) and relay control are determined from the speed.
The relay function is defined via 2 selectable parameter sets. Each parameter set can access the 2 limit
values, the alarm definition, sensor monitoring and other process values.
Both limits have an upper and lower set point (hysteresis setting)
The selection of the valid parameter set is done via the binary input.
The relay status may be held until reset via the binary input

The system continuously monitors itself. In addition the sensor may be monitored. Dependent upon the
configuration, these conditions can influence the relay and voltage output.
The alarm status is indicated via the front panel LED.

The frequency output (open collector output) is not influenced by the machine factor and corresponds to the
input signal frequency. The IQ input is not connected to the frequency output.

The input of all parameters is done via PC software and the RS232 interface. This may also be used to
interrogate the unit’s settings, measurement and general status.

Parameters are retained in an EEPROM.

4.2 Machine factor

The machine factor establishes the relationship between sensor frequency and corresponding speed.
f M = Machine factor
M f = Signal frequency at machine speed n
n n = Machine speed

There are 2 ways of determining the value:

4.2.1 Known (Measured)

f M = Machine factor
M f = Signal frequency at known machine speed
n n = Machine speed at measured signal frequency

4.2.2 Calculated

The relationship between a sensor signal frequency (f) and speed (n) of a pole wheel is:
n p f = Signal frequency in Hz
f  n = Pole wheel speed in rpm
60 p = Nr. of teeth

From which the formula for machine factor is:

p M = Machine factor
M p = Nr. of teeth
60

If there is a gearbox between the pole wheel and the shaft speed to be measured:
pi M = Machine factor
M p = Nr. of pole wheel teeth
60 i = Gearbox ratio

Whereby the gearbox ratio is:

n1 p i = Gearbox ratio
i  2 n1 = Pole wheel speed (Sensor position) primary side
n2 p1 n2 = Pole wheel speed (Speed to be displayed) secondary side
p1 = Nr. of teeth primary side
p2 = Nr. of teeth secondary side

4.2.3 Displaying other physical values

In principle any physical value that can be measured proportional to speed may be displayed.
The formula above should then be modified accordingly.

5 Installation
T400’s may only be installed by trained and competent personnel. An undamaged T400, valid configuration
and suitable installation are required. Please refer to the Safety Instructions in Section 1.
In the case of an emergency, it should be possible to disconnect the T400 from mains using a switch or
similar means. These instruments correspond to protection class I and earthing of the PE terminal is therefore
mandatory.
Before switching the equipment on, it is mandatory to verify that the power supply voltage is in the permissible
range.
The sensor cable screen must be connected to the terminal ‘Sh’ so as to minimize the influence of noise. This
terminal is directly connected internally to 0VS.

CSA requirement: PERMANENTLY CONNECTED EQUIPMENT requires the special considerations to satisfy
the CEC and the Canadian deviations in the standard, including overcurrent and fault protection as required.

8 Configuration with PC Software

8.1 Software Concept
All settings are written via PC to the T400 using the RS232 interface and the user friendly menu driven T400
software.

The parameter file may be stored, opened, printed and exchanged between the T400 and a PC.

8.2 PC Communications
Communications with the T400 are initiated by the PC via the RS232 interface.
Before starting the first connection, Settings  Interface must be set to an appropriate serial interface.
The following settings also apply:

Transmission rate: 2400 Baud

Parity Bit: none
Data Bits: 8
Stop Bits: 2
Connector: 3.5mm jack plug
female
5 1 GND TXD RXD
2 TXD
3 RXD
5 GND

9 6

The diagram shows the stereo jack plug to D9 connections.

The tachometer RXD must be connected to the PC’s TXD and vice versa.
T401 / T402’s do not use a standard RS232 signal (-5V…+5V) but operate at 5V CMOS levels, compatible
with most PC’s as long as the cable is not longer than 2m.
A suitable cable may be ordered from JAQUET AG – see section 11.

8.3 PC Software Settings

8.3.1 Interface (Settings  Interface)
In this menu the serial interface for communication with the T400 is defined.

8.3.2 Display Interval (Settings  Display Interval)

8.5 Parameters
Parameters are changed in the sub menus from the drop down menu „Configuration“.

Warning:
New configurations only become active after being uploaded into the T400 via:
T400  Write Parameters

8.5.1 System parameters (Configuration  System)

Machine factor
The machine factor establishes the relationship between sensor frequency and associated speed.
f M = Machine factor
M f = Signal frequency at machine speed n
n n = Machine speed

See section 4.2 Machine factor.

Once the correct machine factor is entered, all other settings e.g limits are made in rpm.

Minimum Measuring Time

The minimum measuring time determines the time during which the input frequency is measured. The
calculation is made after termination of this time and after reaching the end of the current signal period. The
minimum measuring time may be increased to filter out frequency jitter so as to display a stable reading but at
the cost of increased reaction time.

Minimum displayed value

The minimum displayed value is a measured value under which „0000“ is displayed.

Alarm definition
This function defines the alarm. It may be only system error or a logical OR combination of system error OR
sensor monitoring. During an alarm the LED is off. In addition, the relay is deactivated and the analog output
goes to 0mA (0V) irrespective of the output range.

8.5.4 Limits (Configuration  Limits)

The T400 series offers 2 independent limits  Limit 1 and 2.
Status
Limits are selected here. If the limit is deactivated, the other values such as set points and mode have no
further effect.

Mode
In Normal Mode the limit is active as soon as the High set point is exceeded. In Inverse Mode the limit is active
from the start (zero speed) and deactivates when the set point is reached (Fail Safe operation)

Upper and Lower Set point

As the speed increases, the limit switches when the High set point is reached and remains in that condition
until the speed reduces past the Low set point.

8.5.5 Relay parameter and selection of Parameter set

(Configuration  Relay control)
Parameter set A / B selection
The parameter set B can be activated by using the binary input <Binary input B1>.
If parameter set B is deactivated, this setting have to be set to <none (always control A)>.

Delay time when switching B -> A

This value corresponds to the time needed for switching from parameter set B to parameter set A after
changing the binary input accordingly.

Relay assignment with control A

Defines the relay behavior in parameter set A.

Relay assignment with control B

Defines the relay behavior in parameter set B.

Relay
Defines the source information for relay switching.

• Sensormonitor Sensor status (8.5.2 Sensor parameters (Configuration  Sensor))
• Limit 1/2 Selection of Limit 1/2 (8.5.4 Limits (Configuration  Limits))
• Window ExOR combination of both limits
• On The relay is on
• Off The relay is always off

Acknowledge
Acknowledge establishes if and under what conditions the relay status is held. A relay that is held no longer
reacts to the assigned signal and can only be reset via the binary input.

9 Operating behavior
9.1 Power on
9.1.1 Analogue output
After switching-on the tachometer, the output relates the lower value of the defined output range. After
completion of the first measurement the output goes to the corresponding measured value.

9.1.2 Relay output

The parameter set determined by the configuration and binary input is valid from the start.
If the relay is assigned to a limit it remains deactivated until completion of the first measurement. After this it
switches to the status, which is defined under <Limit>.
If the relay is assigned to any other item in the status register it immediately switches to the corresponding
status.
If no input frequency is present, then after a period of 2 x Fixtime a measured value below the lower set point
is assumed.

9.2 Measurement
Every measurement begins with the positive edge of the input signal. The next positive edge closes the
current measurement and starts the next one after termination of the fixtime.
The resulting effective measurement time is dependent upon whether the input signal period is longer or
shorter than the Fixtime.

Input signal period < Fixtime Input signal period > Fixtime

End of Fixtime Ensuing edge End of Fixtime Ensuing edge

Input Input
Frequency Frequency

Input period time Fixtime Fixtime time

Fixtime Period of input signal

Effective measurement period Effective measurement period

tMeasurement typically = Fixtime tMeasurement max = 2 x Input signal period

tMeasurement max = 2 x Fixtime

The total measurement time has a resolution of  0.4 s.

The calculation and adaptation of outputs follows immediately after the Fixtime.
With input frequencies outside of the measuring range, the corresponding extreme value will be assumed.

9.2.1 The adaptive Trigger level U

After triggering, the trigger level is set for the next pulse
anew.
This guarantees that the trigger level can follow a 50%

9.2.2 Signal failure

In the event of a sudden loss of a good signal, no positive edge arrives to complete the measurement
or start a new one. Once the minimum measurement time (Fixtime) has lapsed, the unit waits for twice the last
measurement period, following which half the last measured speed is assumed.
If the signal remains missing then the measurement approaches zero following an e-function.

9.3 Functions
9.3.1 Limits and Window Function
Since the upper and lower sets points are freely selectable a large hysteresis may be set. If that is not
necessary we recommend setting a 10% hysteresis.

The Window function allows an Exclusive OR combination of Limits 1 and 2, whereby the status of both limits
is first determined (including any inversion) and a subsequent ExOR comparison executed.

As soon as Relay assignment is <Window> the relay behaves as follows:

• With identical limit modes (both Normal or both Inverse) the relay is activated when the measured value
lies between the Limit 1 and 2 settings.
• If different modes are set (one Normal and the other Inverse) the relay is deactivated when the measured
value is between Limits 1 and 2.

9.3.2 Parameter sets A and B

T400’s have 2 parameter sets available that define the relay assignment. Parameter set A would normally be
used. If another parameter set is needed, e.g. for test purposes, the binary input may be used to change to
parameter set B. The transfer from parameter set B to parameter set A may be delayed in the range 0 to 2000
seconds. Transferring from A to B is however immediate and not affected by this setting.
To be able to select parameter sets using the binary input, Relay control - Selection of Actuator must be
appropriately set, see 8.5.5.
Binary input condition Selected Parameter set
High (5V) „normal“ A
Low (0V) „connected to 0V“ B

9.3.3 Relay hold function

A latch function may be assigned to the relay. By selecting <Relay is hold if control is active> the relay is
activated once the assigned limit is active and remains held even if the input frequency would no longer cause
a trip. By selecting <Relay is hold if control is inactive>, the deactivated state of the relay is held. The latched
status may be reset by cycling power or via the binary input, whereby the binary input must be activated as per
the configuration (0V or 5V) for between 0.1 and 0.3 seconds.

9.3.4 Push-button
The front panel push button internally connects the binary input to 0VS thus generating a logic 0.

9.3.5 Binary input

2 functions are executable using the binary input:
• Switching between parameter sets A and B. See 9.3.2 Parameter sets A and B.
• Resetting a latched relay. See 9.3.3 Relay hold function.

The binary input has an internal pull up resistor to +5V and is therefore normally logic High.

5 Volt T401 / T402

Shorting the binary input to the sensor supply 0V creates a logic 0.

+Bin

Switching the input for between 0.1 and 0.3 seconds resets a latched analysis

relay but does not influence parameter set selection, which requires parameter set A B pushbutton

longer than 0.3 seconds.

9.4 Fault behavior

9.4.1 Sensor fault (Sensor monitoring)
The sensor may be monitored in 2 ways. With sensors powered by the T400 the sensor supply current is
monitored. If the current falls outside the permitted range then sensor fault is indicated.
If the sensor is not powered by the T400 then it may only be monitored for disconnection. If disconnected,
sensor fault is indicated.

The T400 behavior in the event of a sensor fault is depending on the configuration:

Alarm Configuration Outputs in the event of a sensor fault

Analog output
LED Relay
Current (T401) Voltage (T402)
Only System error On Measured value output per configuration
System error OR Sensor monitoring Off 0mA 0V deactivated

9.4.2 System alarm

If the microprocessor detects a checksum fault (RAM, ROM or EEPROM) the measured value is set to 0rpm,
the analog output goes to 0 mA or 0 V and the relay is deactivated.

Alarm Configuration Outputs in the event of a System alarm

Analog output
LED Relay
Current (T401) Voltage (T402)
Only System error
Off 0mA 0V deactivated
System error OR Sensor monitoring

9.4.3 Alarm
As long as a combined alarm is present no measurements are conducted and the outputs behave as
described above. Once the fault or alarm condition is removed the last correct measured value is assumed.
Eventual limit activation is not taken into account.

9.5 Power supply interruption

If the PSU remains off for longer than the permitted period the outputs deactivate i.e. the analog output goes
to 0mA (0V), the relay deactivates and the „open collector“ output becomes high resistance.
Once the supply resumes in range the T400 begins its initialization routine (see chapter 9.1).
