Introduction

The EnviroRanger is intended for advanced water and wastewaterapplications. This device can handle virtually all of your pump control andlevel monitoring needs – often replacing expensive PLCs and integrating intoa SCADA system for a fraction of the cost of competitive systems.

The EnviroRanger is programmable.It can be configured for nearly any water or wastewater application andcontrol up to five pumps, gates, or alarms – and can communicate its statusby way of direct serial connection, modem, or industrial communicationnetwork.

The EnviroRanger is flexible.It can take discrete input from pumps or other devices and modify itsoperation based on that input. It can also time events to maximize efficiencyor minimize cost.

About this Manual

NoteThe EnviroRanger ERS 500 is to be used only in the manner outlined inthis instruction manual or protection provided by the equipment may beimpaired.

This is the Installation Guide for the Milltronics EnviroRanger pumpcontroller.

• MODBUS register mapping• Modem configuration


Dolphin PlusThe primary method of programming the EnviroRanger is using the DolphinPlus software and a serial connection to the device.

Programming the EnviroRanger using the optional hand programmer ispossible but is not recommended for complex installations. As a rule ofthumb, if your application falls into one of the pre-configured applicationsthen you can use the programmer but if your application is more complexthen you will want to use Dolphin Plus.

To buy a copy of Dolphin Plus contact your local Milltronics representative atthe numbers given on the back cover.

Power InterruptionAll operator programming is stored in non-volatile memory, unaffected bypower interruption. Reporting functions use volatile RAM with batterybackup.

Mounting Location Considerations

Laptop AccessWhen mounting the EnviroRanger try to provide a place for a laptopcomputer. A laptop running Dolphin Plus is an excellent configuration anddiagnosis tool for the EnviroRanger.

The Rack and Panel mount versions of the EnviroRanger have a serial (RS-232) connection on the face of the unit. TheWall mount version has the serial connectionon the top of the motherboard, inside theenclosure. See Wall Mount on page 19 forRJ-11 placement.

All units have RS-232 connections on theterminal board so they can be permanentlywired to modems for remote access ortelephone jacks for easy local access. Referto Digital Communications on page 29 forinformation on how to wire a permanentcommunications connection to the EnviroRanger terminal board.

Hand Programmer AccessIf a laptop is not used to configure the EnviroRanger then ensure there isenough room in front of the unit to stand with a hand programmer. The handheld programmer is aimed at the receiver as shown below.

If values from the hand programmer are not accepted (display does notrespond) try repositioning it. For the rack and panel mounted versions,ensure that the program button is pressed and the unit is in program mode.

Temperature SensorAll Milltronics Echomax and ST-H transducers have an internal temperaturesensor. For optimum accuracy, use a separate TS-3 temperature sensor if:

• the transducer is exposed to direct sunlight (or other radiant heat source),

• the transducer connected is a ST-25 or ST-50

• the transducer face and monitored surface temperature differs.

• faster response to temperature changes is required.

Accurate temperature readings are critical to accurate level measurementsbecause the speed of sound changes as a function of the air temperature.

Rack or Panel Mount

Use a TS-3 temperature sensor only. Do not jumper unused TS-3 terminals.
