Sample Sequencer®IV
General Description
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SENTRY Sample Sequencer is a microprocessor-based instrument capable of electronically
switching up to eight sample streams one at a time to an analyzer and of providing signals to
recorders. If a total of eight sample streams are not needed for one process, the remaining points
may be assigned to a second analyzer. A Sentry manifold sampling valve specially designed to obtain
optimum representative samples is available for sample stream switching with the Sample Sequencer.
The Sample Sequencer reduces the number of required analyzers while maintaining equivalent data
accuracy. Reliable sample analysis comparison is obtained by using a Sample Sequencer with one
dedicated analyzer. In addition, significant operating cost savings are obtained by not having to
install, maintain and service multiple analyzers.
The Sample Sequencer is capable of operating in the continuous mode for continuous-type analyzers
or in the batch mode for batch-type analyzers. In addition, the Sequencer is capable of measuring the
analyzer analog output signal and converting the analog signal to digital data to be sent out via the
Sequencer’s MODBUS® communication port. Using the MODBUS® capability, one can connect a
PC via twisted pair cable to one or more Sequencers for remote monitoring, control and data
acquisition.
Track and Hold outputs are available to provide independent, isolated outputs for each sample point.
Contact closures are also available to provide channel number indication as well as replicating
analyzer alarms.
Figures 1 - 3 illustrate a typical system arrangement for sample stream switching with the Sample
Sequencer. Customer-supplied equipment is shown for clarification.
Modes of Operation
The Sample Sequencer has two programmable modes of operation:
BATCH
Used for analyzers that take a sample "bite" (or batch), produce an analytical result and then
provide a contact signal output, in typically one to 20 minutes.
CONTINUOUS
Used for analyzers that continuously produce an analytical result.
NOTE
If using the Sample Sequencer with a Hach analyzer, see Appendix B.

Sample Sequencer®IV
General Description
Inputs and Outputs
A variety of inputs and outputs are available on the Sample Sequencer.
Analog Inputs: Two analog inputs are located on the CPU board for reading a 0–20 mA or 4–20 mA
signal from two different analyzers. The Sequencer converts this signal into Engineering Units for
display and outputs the same signal on the Track and Hold board.
Analyzer Alarm Inputs: Two analyzer alarm inputs are located on the CPU board. These inputs are
used to indicate a loss of sample flow to the analyzer. An analyzer alarm will cause the analyzer
description to flash on the operation screen.
When the Sequencer is used in the Continuous mode, an analyzer alarm will immediately close the
active sample valve and open the next sample valve. That sample valve will remain open until the
analyzer alarm clears or one minute elapses. After one minute, the Sequencer will open the next
sample valve. The Sequencer will continue trying to establish flow every minute until the analyzer
alarm clears.
When the Sequencer is used in the Batch mode, an analyzer alarm will not immediately close the active
sample valve. Instead, when the analyzer alarm is received, the Sequencer will start a timeout timer. If
the Sequencer does not receive an End of Batch indication from the analyzer or the alarm does not
clear before that timeout timer, the Sequencer will close the current sample valve and open the next
valve in the sequence. If the End of Batch indication is received before the timeout timer, the
Sequencer assumes the alarm is not a loss of flow and continues with normal operation. The operator
can adjust the timeout timer by setting each sample’s Sample Timer.
Calibration Hold Inputs: Two calibration hold inputs are located on the CPU board. These inputs are
used to indicate the analyzer is performing a calibration. The calibration hold inputs do not perform a
function when the Sequencer is in the Batch mode.
In the Continuous mode, the Sequencer will wait at the active sample with the valve open when a
calibration indication is received. Once the calibration indication clears, the Sequencer will resume
operation entering the Flush state for the sample that was active before the calibration hold indication
was received.
End of Batch Inputs: Two End of Batch inputs are located on the CPU board. These inputs are used to
indicate when a batch type analyzer is finished taking a measurement. Without this input connected,
the Sequencer will never advance to the next sample when the Sequencer is in the Batch mode. The
End of Batch inputs are not used in the Continuous mode.
Valve Outputs: Eight valve outputs are located on the CPU board. These outputs supply 12 VDC to
operate the sample valves. The eight valves may be divided between two analyzers in any
combination. The only requirement is the valves assigned to an analyzer must be consecutive points in
the Sequencer.
Track and Hold Outputs: Eight individually isolated analog outputs are provided on the Track and Hold
board. These outputs are capable of 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA outputs. When a valid reading is taken from
the analyzer for a given sample, the Sequencer updates (“Tracks”) the corresponding signal on the
Track and Hold board. When the sample is not currently being analyzed, the Sequencer “Holds” the
corresponding signal on the Track and Hold board at its last known value.
Relay Outputs: A total of ten individually fused dry contacts are available on the Relay board. Two of
these outputs are used to replicate the two-analyzer alarm inputs while the remaining eight are used for

General Description
sample point indication. A closed contact indicates the point is currently being sampled and the
analyzer reading corresponds to that sample point.
MODBUS® Communications: The Sequencer is capable of connecting to an RS-485 network for
communicating to a PC or control system via MODBUS®. For more information on this feature, refer to
Appendix D.
Optional Manifold Sampling Valve
Although the Sample Sequencer may be used to control most manifold valve arrangements, the Sentry
Manifold Sample Valve offers a convenient optional accessory to obtain a representative sample. The
patented design incorporates block and bleed design and provides continuously flowing samples with
no areas for cross contamination to occur. The valve is available with a variety of DC and AC solenoid
coils and comes in either four or eight sample line models. Contact Sentry for more information about
this special sampling valve.

Sample Sequencer is currently on a sample point that you place in Bypass, the Sample Sequencer will
immediately skip to the next point in the sequence. Occasionally, it is necessary to hold an analysis on
one sample point. To accomplish this, simply place all the undesired sample points in Bypass. Sample
points are placed in either Sample or Bypass by using the Sample/Bypass screen.

Figure 12 – Timers Screen
Figure 12 shows the Timers screen. Each sample point has Sample and Flush timers that can be set
individually. In the Continuous mode, the Flush time is the amount of time the analyzer is flushed out
before the analyzer reading is considered valid. The Sample time is the amount of time the analyzer is
allowed to analyze the sample while the reading is considered valid. The Track and Hold value and
Point Identification are active during the Sample time. The valve for this sample point is open during
both the Sample time and the Flush time.
In the Batch mode, the Flush time is not used. The Sample time serves as a timeout timer that operates
only when the analyzer is in alarm. While in alarm, if an End-of-Batch signal is not received before the
Sample time times out, the Sample Sequencer will close the current sample point and proceed with the
next sample point. Since the Analyzer Alarm input may serve to indicate more than a loss of sample flow,
the Sample time should be set to give the analyzer sufficient time to attempt to complete an analysis and
output an End-of-Batch indication.

Sample Sequencer® IV
Operation
Operating Modes
Continuous
This mode is for continuous output analyzers such as sodium, conductivity, pH, O2, some colorimetric, and
many others.
Timing Considerations for the Continuous Mode
Figure 26 illustrates the timing diagram for the continuous mode. The following considerations should be
made when determining the timing for your system.
Analyzer Alarm: An analyzer alarm will immediately close the active sample valve and open the
next sample valve. That sample valve will remain open until the analyzer alarm clears or one
minute elapses. After one minute, the Sequencer will open the next sample valve. The Sequencer
will continue trying to establish flow every minute until the analyzer alarm clears.
Calibration Hold: A calibration hold signal will cause the Sample Sequencer to wait at the active
sample with the valve open. Once the calibration indication clears, the Sequencer will resume
operation entering the Flush state for the sample that was active before the calibration hold
indication was received.
Flush Time: After switching to a successive stream, there will be a settling time for the analyzer to
stabilize to the new sample. The analyzer analog output signal is ignored during this time. The
necessary Flush time depends on the valve manifold design, sample line length from the manifold
arrangement, sample velocity and analyzer response time.
Sample Time: Sample Time is the time period during which a valid analyzer signal is read. Analog
outputs are updated and point identification relay contacts are closed during this time.
The
necessary Sample time should be set long enough to recognize stable readings and to provide
recording devices time to capture the data.

Sample Sequencer® IV
Operation
Batch
The batch mode is for analyzers that take a "bite" or batch of sample and then spend some time analyzing
it before outputting a new fixed analog signal. Typical types are reagent additive, chromatographs, etc.
When these analyzers have completed an analysis there is just one output value until the analyzer's next
cycle is completed. An "End-of-Batch" contact closure signal must be provided at the conclusion of a
batch by the batch type analyzers. The Hach Series 5000 analyzer operates in this manner.
See Appendix B for instructions about connecting a
Hach 5000 analyzer to the Sample Sequencer.
Timing Considerations for the Batch Mode
Figure 27 illustrates the timing diagram for the batch mode. Figure 9 demonstrates how each sample
stream is switched when the analyzer outputs an end-of-batch signal to the Sample Sequencer. If the
Sample Sequencer does not receive an end-of-batch signal, the Sample Sequencer will never
advance to the next sample. Upon receiving an end-of-batch signal from the analyzer, the Sample
Sequencer reads the analyzer value, updates the Track and Hold output, and closes the point
identification relay. Note: The updated Track and Hold output and point identification relay are
for the previous sample point. The open valve number will never match the closed relay point
identification in the batch mode.
The following considerations should be made when determining the timing for your batch mode
system:
End-of-Batch: The Sample Sequencer receives this signal when the analysis is completed
and the analyzer is ready to begin a new analysis.
Analyzer Alarm: The Sample Sequencer receives this signal when the analyzer is in alarm,
such as a loss of sample flow condition. Once the analyzer alarm signal is received the
Sample Sequencer will start the Sample timer and replicate the analyzer alarm for use by
external recorders and control systems.
Sample Time: The Sample time in the batch mode is a timeout timer that operates only when the
analyzer is in alarm. While in alarm, if an End-of-Batch signal is not received before the Sample
time times out, the Sample Sequencer will close the current sample point and proceed with the
next sample point. Since the Analyzer Alarm input may serve to indicate more than a loss of
sample flow, the Sample time should be set to give the analyzer sufficient time to attempt to
complete an analysis and output an End-of-Batch indication.

Appendix A
APPENDIX A - RECOMMENDED PIPING
It is recommended proper sample conditioning and flow control be maintained to obtain representative
samples. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) guidelines for representative sampling
recommend maintaining constant and continuous sample flow in sample lines. In addition, it is
recommended the sample be cooled to a temperature of 77 F (25 C) prior to analysis. (Note: Some
analyzers may recommend a different sample temperature be used to accelerate the analysis
process.) Appropriate sample coolers or heaters may be required. Consult the pressure and
temperature specifications for your specific analyzer and sampling system. Figure 40 shows the
recommended sample conditioning piping and instrumentation diagram (P & ID) when switching
streams with the Sample Sequencer.

Appendix B
APPENDIX B – USING A SEQUENCER WITH HACH SERIES
5000 ANALYZER
The Sample Sequencer may operate with a Hach Series 5000 analyzer. The Series 5000 instruments
operate in batch-mode style and require the appropriate configuration for use with the Sample
Sequencer. Hach 5000 analyzers have special features that provide a contact closure at the end of
the batch. This is called the “Mark End of Measurement” contact closure. The contact closure causes
the Sample Sequencer to advance to the next sample point. See Batch Mode operation description in
this manual for more information.
Figure 41 illustrates how to connect the Sample Sequencer to a Hach Series 5000 analyzer. The
Hach 5000 analyzer must be configured properly to operate with the Sample Sequencer. The
analyzer must be programmed to use relay #3 and relay #4 for System Alarm and End-ofMeasurement contact closure indications, respectively. Consult the Hach analyzer manual for
information about configuring the System Alarm to relay 3. The following procedure describes how to
configure the End-of-Measurement contact closure on the Hach 5000.
Configuring the Series 5000 (Catalog No. 60000-XX through 60004-XX) for MARK END OF
MEASURE on Relay 4
1. Remove the front cover of the control module. Move the No. 1 DIP switch on SW1 to the ON
position. This will enable the Extended Diagnostic menu. (Switch SW1 is an 8-switch DIP
located near the center of the circuit board.)
2. Return to the front of the control panel and press the TEST key. Using the NEXT key, scroll
through the diagnostic menu to MARK END OF MEAS. Press ENTER and select ENABLE
with the NEXT key. Then, press ENTER. This will activate the MARK END OF MEASURE
contact closure.
3. Turn OFF switch No. 1 on switch bank SW1 of the circuit board. This will return the analyzer
to normal operation but leave the MARK END OF MEASURE function enabled. Note: This
procedure will have to be repeated if a cold start is performed.
4. Reassign the System Alarm to relay 3 by the following: Press the SET UP key. ALARMS will
appear. Press ENTER. Scroll with the NEXT key to RELAY CONFIG and press ENTER.
Scroll to SYS ALRM with the NEXT key and then press ENTER. Scroll with the NEXT key to
RLY 3 and press ENTER.
5. Reassign Alarm 2 to No Relay by the following: Press the SETUP key on the control module.
ALARMS will appear. Press ENTER. Scroll with the NEXT key to RELAY CONFIG and press
ENTER. Scroll to ALARM2 and press ENTER. Scroll with the NEXT key to NO RLY and
press ENTER.
6. Assign relay 4 to Mark End of Measure by the following: Press the SETUP key on the control
module. ALARMS will appear. Press ENTER. Scroll with the NEXT key to RELAY CONFIG
and press ENTER. Scroll to MARK END OF MEAS and press ENTER. Note: MARK END
OF MEAS will not appear unless it has been properly activated per the above steps.
Scroll with the NEXT key to RLY 4 and press ENTER. This will assign the alarm 4 relay to
mark the end of measurement with a contact closure. The contact closure makes the Sample
Sequencer advance to the next sample point.

Older Hach Series 5000 Analyzers
If you have an analyzer with a catalog model number 5000X-XX, contact Hach Service Department at
1-800-227-4224 regarding using the Sample Sequencer with your analyzer. Updated software
EEPROM may be required to operate correctly with the Sample Sequencer.
If you have an analyzer with a catalog model number 5500X-XX, configure your unit as follows:
Model 5500X-XX Configuration
1. The wiring is different for the model 5500X-XX than shown in Figure C1. The changes are: (a)
Connect the Sample Sequencer End-of-Batch terminals to the Hach terminals labeled NO and
COM on ALRM 2. (b) Connect the Sample Sequencer Analyzer Alarm terminals to the Hach
terminals labeled NO and COM on SYS ALRM.
2. Open the control module door and loosen the screw to allow access to the rear of the display
board. Remove the back cover.
3. Turn DIP switch #1 (S1) ON by pressing it. This puts the analyzer in the Extended Diagnostic
menu.
4. Press the TEST key.
5. Using the NEXT key, scroll through the diagnostic menu to "MARK END of MEAS", then,
press ENTER. This will cause the number 2 alarm contact to close at the end of each analysis
cycle. The Series 5000 now provides a contact closure to advance the Sample Sequencer to
the next sample point each time alarm 2 contact closes. The alarm 2 contact can no longer be
used for an alarm signal.
6. After pressing ENTER, return the #1 DIP switch (S1) to the OFF position. Replace the cover
and close the meter panel. This returns the analyzer to normal operation. Note: If a "cold
start" is initiated or the backup battery fails during a power failure, you must reset the
MARK END of MEAS as outlined above.
7. Verify the Sequencer is operating in the batch mode.

NOTES:
Registers 400001 through 400006 provide status information corresponding to SEQ1.
Registers 400007 through 400012 provide status information corresponding to SEQ2.
The values located in registers 400001 and 400007 represent the following states:
0 = OFF, 1 = FLUSH, 2 = SAMPLE, 3 = ALARM, 4 = CALIBRATION, 5 = BATCH
The analyzer value is stored in consecutive registers. The first register stores the whole number. The
second register stores the decimal value * 100.
The values located in the Sample/Bypass registers represent the following states:
0 = Bypass, 1 = Sample
Registers 400053 through 400056 should be implemented as momentary pushbuttons. To start or stop
SEQ1 or SEQ2, a 1 should be placed in the corresponding register. After the Sequencer has changed to the
appropriate state, a 0 should be placed in the corresponding register.
