2.1 Warnings and Caution Notices
Caution
Not explosion proof. Installation of this instrument in an area requiring devices rated as intrinsically safe is not recommended.
Some ranges require clean, dry, non-corrosive pressure media. See “Media Compatibility” in the Specifications section of this manual. This instrument is not designed for oxygen use.
Caution: ESD PROTECTION REQUIRED. The proper use of grounded work surfaces and personal wrist straps are required when coming into contact with exposed circuits (printed circuit boards) to prevent static discharge to sensitive electronic components.
Avoid excessive overpressure to the sensor. Externally mounted relief valves to provide overpressure protection are available from Mensor as optional devices and are highly recommended for very low pressure transducers.
3. Product Description
3.1 General Description
The CPT6100 and the CPT6180 Digital Pressure Transducers are self-contained pressure sensing device that provides high accuracy pressure measurements. These transducers incorporate a low hysteresis silicon sensor with electronically compensated pressure linearity over the specified temperature range. Communication with the CPT6100 and CPT6180 is over a serial bus, either RS-232 or RS-485. Differences between the two products can be seen in the specification section.
3.2 Turndowns
The transducer has the capability to include two distinct ranges (turndowns) using a single sensor. The primary turndown is always the higher range of the transducer. At powerup the primary turndown is active by default.
3.3 Power Supply
The required 12VDC power enters via J1. The power supply used to power the device must be a limited-energy device supplying less than 8.3A at 12VDC. It is recommended that the power supply is IEC6010-1 3rd ed. compliant.
3.4 Sensor
The pressure sensor is a micromachined silicon strain gauge. The sensor is secured to the transducer case.
3.5 Circuitry
All of the circuitry is included on a single PC board. The combined pressure and temperature sensor signals are routed to the signal conditioning electronics.
Figure 3.6 - Serial In/Out Communications
The serial bus is set to either RS-232 or RS-485 at the factory. The bus is a two way communication path used to receive commands and return measured pressure values and other transducer information to the user. This port is also used to transmit calibration adjustments and other user functions to the transducer. Pressure units for each transducer are specified by the customer. Wiring requirements for the serial port are provided in the Installation section and a list of valid commands and responses (Table 6.5.4) is provided in the operation section.
4. Specifications
Accuracy specifications presented herein are obtained by comparison with primary standards traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). These specifications are obtained in accordance with the ISO Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM). The calibration program at Mensor is accredited by the American Association of Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA) as complying with both the ISO/IEC 17025:2005 and the ANSI/NCSL Z540-1-1994 standards.
Mensor reserves the right to change specifications without notice.

5. Installation
5.1 Unpacking the instrument
In addition to functional testing, each unit is inspected for appearance prior to leaving the factory. Upon receipt, please examine the transducer for shipping damage. Report any apparent damage to the carrier immediately.
In addition to this manual and password information (files on USB drive) you should have:
-
• One Digital Pressure Transducer
-
• Any accessories ordered
-
• An envelope containing a Calibration Certificate
Note: The software utility is downloadable from the Mensor website (see Section 8.2, “Equipment”).
5.2 Dimensions
Mounting holes dimension could vary, slotted mounting holes are recommended.
5.3 Configuration
A typical system will consist of an IBM-PC compatible computer with installed driver software, one or more CPT61XX's, a DC voltage power supply, and the interconnecting cables. The driver software can be any program configured to operate the appropriate serial interface. Up to 31 CP-T61XX's can be connected in parallel using RS-485. Refer to Figure 5.6.3 for an illustration of two alternate RS-485 wiring arrangements, including multiple CPT61XX operation.
5.4 Mounting
The CPT61XX has mounting holes on the side and back per the drawing in 5.2 Dimensions. The CPT61XX can be set up in any orientation since the pressure sensor is relatively insensitive to tilt and vibration. However, excessive motor or machinery vibration of the mounting surface should be avoided to further ensure stability and accuracy. For the greatest accuracy on transducers with a full scale range of less than 15 psi, set CPT61XX zero while it is oriented in its operational position.
5.5 Pressure Connections
The pressure to be measured is applied to the port labeled P on top of the CPT61XX. The reference connection for gauge pressure is made to the port labeled R. On gauge transducers the reference port is normally left open to atmosphere. If the transducer is used in a differential mode, static line pressures may affect the calibration.

5.6.1 Connector J1 Wiring
Power and signals are applied to J1, a 9-pin D-sub male connector. A nominal 12 VDC supply can be used to power the CPT61XX by applying 12 VDC to pin 6 and ground to pin 5. Power consumption is maximum 55mA at 12 VDC. The CPT61XX is protected against power input reversal. Communication wiring between the host and the CPT61XX is shown in Figures 5.6 and 5.6.3.
5.6.2 RS-232 Operation
For RS-232 serial port operation connect the CPT61XX to the host computer. Notice that the host TRANSMIT line is connected to the CPT61XX RECEIVE line (TX to RX), and vice versa. One limitation of the RS-232 bus is that a host can support only one instrument. See “RS-485 Operation” for multiple CPT61XX operation.
5.6.3 RS-485 Operation
For RS-485 serial operation, connect the host computer to the CPT61XX per the wire diagram shown in Figure 5.6.3. Notice that the host TRANSMIT lines are connected to the CPT61XX RECEIVE lines, TA to RA, TB to RB, and so on.
If only one RS-485 CPT61XX will be connected to the system, disregard the wiring to “CPT61XX #1” and “CPT61XX #2” in the illustrations. Instead, wire the computer directly to the “CPT61XX #31” by the four-wire method.
If using a multidrop RS-485 connection, pins 4, 7 and 8 must not be daisy chained.
To connect multiple RS-485 CPT61XX's to a single host, use the full multi-drop wiring shown in Figure 5.6.3. Only full duplex (4-wire) connection is recommended. In this configuration, one computer can communicate with up to 31 CPT61XX's without a repeater, but each CPT61XX in the system must have a unique address. The signal is simultaneously distributed to each transducer connected to the parallel path. Each CPT61XX responds only to commands or queries directed to its own address. Removal of one or more CPT61XX's from the line has no effect on the remaining devices.
Terminating resistor examples are shown and should be determined by the end user when cabling extremes are required. Resistor values are selected to match the characteristic impedance of the transmission line, typically 100 to 120 ohms.
Due to the nature of the various RS-485 converters available there may be communication issues. We have determined that our devices work with the ACCES I/O PRODUCTS devices. At this time we are not in a position to comment on any other make of RS-485 converters and their suitability for use with our products.

Avoid excessive overpressure to the sensor! Externally mounted relief valves to provide overpressure protection are available from Mensor as optional devices, and are highly recommended for very low pressure transducers.
User programmable exponential filtering is applied to pressure readings in order to minimize at or near static pressure noise. The filter value can range from 0 (filter OFF) to 99 (maximum filtering). For any positive filter value, the filter is disabled when the pressure change between consecutive readings is greater than 0.01% full scale. However, each pressure change of 0.01% FS, or less, between consecutive readings will apply the exponential filter to the output pressure value to smooth out the readings.
The user can reset the zero and span values via the serial port in order to calibrate the instrument, or the user can change any of several other operating values. The user can also query the device for its current pressure reading, or to find the current settings for other parameters.
The serial port is set at the factory for either RS-232 or for RS-485 serial operation according to the customer's instructions. This section of the manual provides information on the serial port configuration, explains the command conventions used in this manual, and lists the common commands and queries which are recognized by the CPT61XX.
6.1 Multiple Turndown Devices
The availability of two different turndown ranges in one device has many obvious benefits, but certain issues should be noted for application of devices with multiple ranges. An important factor to remember is the two ranges are completely discrete except for the address. Consequently, certain parameters can be set to different values between the two turndown ranges.
6.1.1 Filter Effects of Multiple Turndowns
An area of concern when using devices with multiple turndowns is the effect of the exponential filter on the reading output. In the case that a user is emulating an auto-ranging scheme by quickly switching between turndown ranges of one device, the exponential filter can skew the reading output of the device immediately after a switch is made. The reason for this skewing is the persistence of previous pressure samples in the reading buffer and their use in the filtering scheme.
The filter equation for the transducer is as follows where FL is set to 90: If the change in pressure reading is less than 0.01% of the last pressure reading sampled at a 20 mS rate, then the pressure reading = (last filtered pressure * 90%) + (current sampled pressure * 10%). Otherwise the pressure reading is equal to the current sampled pressure. Default setting is 90% filtering.
Consequently, the readings from the previous active turndown in the reading buffer of the device affect the current reading. The amount the new reading is affected is a function of the size of the filter percentage setting of the active turndown. The largest offset that will be reported by the newly active turndown is 0.01% FS of the current range. In applications where readings must not slew in immediately after a turndown switch is made, it is advisable to set the filter to zero or to program a delay before the new turndown is read.
Both turndowns share the same address. However, if you change the address of one turndown without saving it, the address will revert to the previously saved address when you switch turndowns.
6.2 Serial Port Configuration
Unless otherwise requested by the customer, the CPT61XX serial ports are set at the factory to the default values listed in the following table.

6.3 CPT61XX Address
Each CPT61XX is assigned address “1” at the factory. In a multiple CPT61XX system each transducer must have a unique address. Valid addresses are 0 through 9 and A through Z (upper and lower case are interpreted the same). To change an address see Table 6.5.4 for command set information.
6.4 Communication Output Modes
The output mode is set at the factory at the time the order is placed.
Mode 3: Query and response mode
This is an ascii value of the measured pressure plus carriage return and line feed. This value is returned after the “?” query has been sent. See Section 6.5.4 for commands and queries.
The CPT61XX must be in Mode 3 or 8 to calibrate. See Section 8 for calibration procedures and the “M<x>” command in table 6.5.4 for the command used to switch between modes.
Mode 8: Special alternate response string format:
Starting with firmware version 4.00 and later an alternate response string is available. This can only be set at the factory. When the “?” query is used the unit sends out two separate strings. The first is the pressure reading. The second is an error status and timing related string.
The output string will appear as shown in the example below.
#*?<cr><lf> is sent to the transducer
1<sp>10.1234<cr><lf> response
e:00 c:13fd<cr><lf> response
Where the “e:” can indicate an error or an all is well status as follows:
Error codes Status
00 Status is normal
01 Pressure is above calibrated range of transducer
02 Pressure is below calibrated range of transducer
The “c:” output is a conversion counter. Each time a pressure conversion occurs the counter is incremented. This can be used to determine whether multiple readings from the transducer were from the same pressure conversion. The transducer can respond faster than the normal 50 Hz (standard) conversion rate. The count value is in hexadecimal and ranges from 0000 to ffff and rolls back to 0000.
■ I
Notice
The CPT61XX must be in Mode 3 or 8 to calibrate. See Section 8 for calibration procedures and the “M<x>” command in table 6.5.4 for the command used to switch between modes.\
6.5 Communication Syntax and Command Conventions
All commands and responses are in ASCII characters; lower and upper case are interpreted the same. Every command or query begins with the pound symbol (#). The question mark (?) and decimal point (.) characters are significant to the CPT61XX. All other punctuation characters are ignored. Some commands require a password string. A carriage return (<cr>) or linefeed (<lf>) should terminate each command or query.
6.5.1 Wildcard Address Operator (*)
In addition to the 36 unique addresses available, an asterisk (*) functions as a wildcard address operator. However, this wildcard must not be used in queries if more than one transducer is connected to a host. The wildcard can be used to address multiple devices with commands.
One use for the wildcard address could be when a CPT61XX is pulled out of a multi-drop setup and sent to a calibration facility for recertification. The calibration technician can communicate with the device using the wildcard address without learning or changing its assigned address.
6.5.2 Password Protection
Certain commands require a password to be sent before a setting is changed. The password is only good for one command, so the password string must be sent immediately before any password protected command string. The form of the password string is described in table 6.5.4. However, for calibration protection, the actual password has been replaced with PW in the command string example. See the Password card file on the USB drive supplied with your shipment for the actual password string to be used in place of PW.
When using 2-wire RS-485 configuration, care should be taken to not append the data string with both a carriage return <cr> and a linefeed <lf>. Use one terminator or the other, only. When receiving data from the CPT61XX, both a carriage return <cr> and a linefeed <lf> will be sent to terminate the data string. The linefeed <lf> will always be the last character sent by the CPT61XX.
6.5.3 Response String Format
The CPT61XX will return an R to indicate that it has received a command or password rather than a query. When programming communication with the CPT61XX, it is advisable to look for the R response before sending additional commands or queries.
The full command word is shown in Table 6.5.4 in all capital letters. Other conventions used to describe commands are shown in Table 6.5.3.

7. Analog Output (Option)
7.1 Analog Output
The CPT6100 transducer can be configured at the time of manufacture to have voltage output that is directly proportional to the pressure input. This output is available on pins 7 (+) and 4 (-) of the DB-9 connector. The analog signal is set at the factory to one of the following ranges: 1 VDC, 5 VDC or 10 VDC.
The formula to derive the measured pressure from the output voltage is:
pressure span x output voltage voltage span = measured pressure
The following example shows output voltages for two pressure values using a 0 to 250 psia full scale transducer with a 10 VDC analog signal:
Analog Output True Pressure
0.5868 volts 14.67 psia
5.0000 volts 125.000 psia
7.1.1 Serial Commands for Analog Output

7.1.2 Zero and Span Adjustment
-
1. Determine the current analog output correction factors:
Send: #*PW<cr>
Then send #*VCZ?<cr> and #*VCS?<cr>
Record these factors for longitudinal comparison of performance between calibrations.
-
2. Clear the current correction factors:
Send: #*VCZ 0<cr> and #*VCS 1<cr>
-
3. Connect a DMM to the analog output pins of the transducer (pin 7 is +, pin 4 is (-). Apply a known true pressure at or near zero and take a reading with the DMM. Calculate the equivalent analog output voltage for the applied pressure using the formula:
pressure span x output voltage voltage span = measured pressure
Subtract this value from the DMM reading. Send the resulting offset value to the transducer with the VCZ command.
-
4. Apply a known true pressure at or near the full scale pressure of the transducer. Take a reading with the DMM. Calculate the equivalent analog output voltage for the applied pressure using the formula:
true pressure + full scale value x analog full scale value
Divide the calculated value by the reading of the DMM. The resulting value is the span correction factor and should be loaded into the transducer using the VCS command.
-
5. Send a SAVE command to the transducer to move the correction factors to non-volatile memory.

8. Calibration
The CPT61XX transducer automatically adjusts the pressure readings for the effects of temperature and non-linearity within the calibrated temperature range of 15-45°C. Thus, a calibrated CP-T61XX operated within its temperature band, and with proper zero and span settings, will provide accurate pressure measurements.
The transducer should have the span verified periodically to insure its stability. Initially, the recommended period between calibrations is as specified. This period may be extended as confidence is gained in the span stability.
8.1 Environment
Whenever possible, calibrate the CPT61XX at the same ambient temperature as its normal operating environment. The temperature should be stable, and within the specified calibration range. In addition, for maximum accuracy, see that the CPT61XX is at rest on a stable platform which is free of vibration and shock, and oriented similar to its final installation attitude. At the factory the CP-T61XX is calibrated vertically with the pressure port at the top.
8.2 Equipment
The following equipment is needed to calibrate a gauge transducer (see Figure 8.2):
-
1. A downloadable version of the most recent calibration utility program. Go to http:\\www.mensor. com, click “Download”, click “Software”, click “PC software”, then click on Operating & Calibration software for the series CPT6xxx digital pressure transducers. The calibration utility program is also available on CD by request.
-
2. A host computer with a serial port to match the CPT61XX (RS-232 or RS-485), software to run the CPT61XX transducer, and an appropriate cable.
-
3. Appropriate pressure and vacuum sources and calibration reference standards for the CP-T61XX's pressure range
-
4. Tubing, fittings and valves adequate for the pressure range.
-
5. To calibrate the optional analog output signal a high accuracy digital multi-meter is required. Refer to “7.1.1 - Analog Output Option” for zero and span adjustment information.

Figure 8.2 - Calibration Setup
8.3 Pressure Standard
Mensor recommends the use of appropriately accurate primary pressure standards when calibrating this instrument. Such standards should be sufficient so that when the techniques of the ISO Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM) are applied, the instrument meets its accuracy statements as required by ANSI/NCSL Z540, or other applicable standards. The same requirement applies to the vacuum gauge used to set the zero offset on absolute calibrations. The recommended pressure for setting the zero offset on absolute transducers is between 600 mTorr absolute and 20% of the active transducer's span.
8.4 Calibration Medium
The recommended calibration medium for sensors up to 6000 psi is dry nitrogen or clean, dry instrument air. Hydraulic media (water or oil for example) are recommended for ranges above this. Hydraulic media can be used with lower ranges, however, special techniques must be used in filling the connection lines and transducer.
8.5 Calibration Process
Please notice that the commands listed in this section are shown in the same style as those in the Operation section. These are the bare commands seen by the CPT61XX, stripped of all programming idioms. Depending on the specific language used to generate them, these commands may have to be preceded by or enclosed in various symbols for transmission. For this procedure it is assumed that a single CPT61XX is connected to the host computer, and that its assigned address is unknown.
The model, serial number, and software version number of the CPT61XX being calibrated can be obtained by sending: #*ID?<cr>.
8.6 Correction Value Query
The stored correction for zero offset or the span correction factor can be retrieved over the bus. The returned values have six significant digits plus a decimal point and a sign. To see the stored values send either:
#*ZC?<cr> or #*SC?<cr>
These commands may be useful in determining the actual changes in zero and span over time. Unauthorized alterations of the values can be detected by comparison with previously recorded correction values.
■ i Notice
Each command issued to either calibration parameter must be followed by the SAVE command to make it permanent. Otherwise, the changes will be lost the next time the CPT61XX loses power.
8.7 Zero Adjustment
To adjust zero, first determine the correct zero offset, then send the password, and then send the new zero value. Applying the correct zero pressure and finding the resulting zero offset is different for an absolute transducer than it is for a gauge type unit. Once the zero offset is known, the procedure for sending the zero correction value (which sets the output to zero) is the same for either type of transducer. When the zero offset is correct, issue a SAVE command to preserve it in non-volatile memory.
8.7.1 Gauge Zero Offset
Substitute the required password in place of “PW” in the following examples:
-
1. Determine the current zero offset and make a note of the returned reading.
Next send: #*ZC?<cr>
Record the date and this reading to track zero changes between calibrations.
-
2. Vent the PRESSURE and REFERENCE ports to atmosphere.
The true pressure is now 0 (zero).
Send: #*PW<cr>
Next send: #*ZC<sp>0<cr>
This will clear the current zero offset from RAM.
-
3. While vented, determine the current zero pressure reading of the CPT61XX.
Send: #*?<cr>
Make a note of the zero value returned by the CPT61XX.
-
4. Subtract the current zero reading from true zero.
The difference is the new zero offset.
Example: For a 0-30 psi unit with both ports vented:
True Pressure = 0 (vented)
Current Pressure reading (from step 4) = +0.0023 psi
True Pressure - Current Pressure = New Offset
0.0000 (-) +0.0023 = -0.0023 psi offset
-
5. Enter the new offset into memory.
Send: #*PW<cr>
Next send the zero offset: #*ZC<sp>-.0023<cr>
The new offset of -0.0023 will now be added to all pressure readings of the CPT61XX.
Send: #*SAVE<cr> to store the new value in non-volatile memory.
-
6. To check the zero correction:
Send: #*?<cr>
The reading returned should be 0.0000 psi with both ports vented.
8.7.2 Absolute Zero Offset
Substitute the required password in place of “PW” in the following examples:
-
1. Find the current zero offset and make a note of the returned value.
Send: #*ZC?<cr> and record the reading.
-
2. Use the setup for absolute pressure shown in Figure 8.2. Apply a stable pressure value between 600 mTorr absolute and 20% of the transducer's span. Measure the reference pressure reading in the native units of the CPT61XX. This reading becomes the “true pressure”.
-
3. Clear the current zero offset from RAM.
Send: #*PW<cr>
Next send: #*ZC 0<cr>
-
4. Determine the current pressure reading.
Send: #*?<cr> and make a note of this reading.
-
5. Subtract the current pressure reading from the true pressure reading.
The difference is the zero offset now required.
Example: For a 0-15 psia unit with 600 millitorr absolute pressure applied, using psi units:
600 millitorr = 0.0116 psia (True Pressure)
Current Pressure reading (from step 4) = -0.0011 psia
True Pressure - Current Pressure = New Offset 0.0116 (-) -0.0011 = +0.01059 psi offset
-
6. Enter the new offset into memory.
Send: #*PW<cr>
Then send: #*ZC<sp>.0105<cr>
The new offset of 0.0105 will now be added to all pressure readings.
Send: #*SAVE<cr> to store the new value in non-volatile memory.
-
7. To check the zero correction:
Send: #*?<cr>
For 600 mtorr the pressure reading returned should be 0.0116 psia.
8.8 Span Adjustment
The span adjustment procedure is the same for gauge and absolute units. Always make zero corrections before changing the span factor. A scale factor within the range of 0.9 to 1.1 is used as a multiplier to correct for span shifts.
-
1. Determine the current span scale factor and record the reading.
Send: #*SC?<cr>
This reading can be used at some later date to detect a span change between calibrations.
-
2. To clear the current scale factor:
Send: #*PW<cr>
Next send: #*SC<sp>1<cr>
-
3. Apply a known true pressure equal to the span of the CPT61XX.
To determine the CPT61XX pressure reading:
Send: #*?<cr> and make a note of this reading.
-
4. Divide the known true pressure by the CPT61XX pressure reading.
The result is the required new span scale factor.
Example: For a 150 psi unit:
True pressure = 150.003 psi
CPT61XX pressure reading (from step 3) = 149.984 psi True pressure/CPT61XX pressure = New Span Scale Factor 150.003/149.984 = 1.000127
-
5. To enter the new span scale factor:
Send: #*PW<cr>
Then send: #*SC<sp>1.000127<cr>
Send: #*SAVE<cr> to store the new value in non-volatile memory.
All future pressure readings returned by this CPT61XX will be multiplied by a scale factor of 1.000127 before they are transmitted over the bus.
-
6. To check the span reading:
Send: #*?<cr>
The returned pressure value should be 150.003 psi, if the pressure has not changed.
