History
A FD-582 2015-3326 August 6, 2015 Initial Release with Document Revision V1.0
B FD-582 2016-939 April 11, 2016 Updates for 1.02 firmware- updates to Connecting to EC
350 via MasterLink section, corrections in Mode
Parameters, L1.1 screens replaced.
C FD-582 September 26, Updates to HMI navigation structure to align with Firmware
2016 version 1.10. Other general improvements such as power
supply options, and document layout.

This document is for operators and technicians working in the natural gas industry. It provides a basic overview of how
to install the EC 350 device and perform basic operations. The EC 350 can be configured using the HMI or MasterLink.
This document focuses on the HMI configuration.

1. Components inside the EC 350 box

Depending on options ordered, the following components may be installed or provided with the EC 350 when shipped.
 Pressure transducers (up to 2 transducers, already connected)
 Temperature probe (already connected)
 Landline or Cellular Modem (already connected)
 Battery Pack
 Meter Mounting Kit (gasket & bolts)
 IrDA Dongle & USB Cable
 External Power Supply
After you receive EC 350:
1. Remove the contents from the box and from the mounting kit bag.
2. Check the shipment against the invoice to ensure that the components ordered are provided.
3. Report any shortage or shipping damages to your nearest Honeywell Account Manager.

2. Installing the EC 350 device

The EC 350 installation consists of mounting and wiring EC 350 according to the instructions given in
The User’s Manual. Before proceeding, read the installation information provided in the User’s Manual and refer to the
section “Model number interpretation”, to familiarize yourself with the EC 350 model you have selected.
Based on the mounting selected, refer to one of the following two methods for installing EC 350 on a meter.

Refer to the EC 350 User’s Manual for complete instructions on Installing the EC 350 device.

3. Power Supply Options

The EC 350 has flexible power supply options. The unit can operate from an externally supplied DC power
source or from a 4-cell Alkaline, a 2-cell Lithium, or dual 2-cell Lithium Battery Packs.

Battery Powered
Connections for the Battery pack are made at the P5 connector on the EC 350 IO Board. There are three Battery choices
for operating the EC 350 from battery power:
 40-6050 (4-cell Alkaline) – 5 year operating life under specified conditions
 40-6048 (2-cell Lithium)
 Dual set of 40-6048 (2-cell Lithium) – extended life or heavy usage / comms applications.
Connections for the Battery packs are made at the P5 connector on the EC 350 IO Board.
Item 1061 (Battery Type) is used to select the type of battery pack that is to power the instrument. Verify item 1061 is
correctly configured for the installed battery pack.
 0 = 4 Cell Alkaline (default type)
 1 = 2 Cell Lithium
 2 = 4 Cell Lithium (dual set of P/N 40-6048)

Note: The Battery voltage is measured on a 10 minute interval. Three consecutively low readings are required to the trip
the Low Voltage Alarm (Item 99) – this is done to help guard against falsely setting alarm due to a supply glitch.

EC 350 Quick Start Guide Rev. C 3

September 26, 2016
The graphic below shows the connections to an alkaline battery pack.

External Power Supply

 The input voltage range for using an externally supplied DC power source is +5.0 VDC to +15.0 VDC. The Honeywell
power 9 VDC pack p/n: 40-2291 can be used as an external voltage source.
 Connections for the external supply are made at the TB1 connector on the EC 350 IO Board. Terminal-1 nearest the
top of the IO Board is GND and Terminal-3 is the positive (+) input. When operating from an externally supplied DC
power source, a backup battery pack may also be installed with the intent of powering the instrument in situations
where the external (remote) power is interrupted.
 Installations requiring CLASS 1 - DIV 2 approval, the following Battery Packs are approved: 40-6048 (2- cell Lithium),
40-6050 (4-cell Alkaline), and 40-6064 (4-cell Alkaline with 47 ohm Res). These Battery Packs can be connected to
the P5 Battery connector using cable p/n: 40-6045.
 Installations requiring CLASS 1 - DIV 1 approval, only the Battery Pack 40-6064 is approved.
 When operating from an externally supplied DC power source, configure the External Supply Low Alarm Limit (Item
795) to be a value greater than 5.0 and generally less than 7.0 V. The default value of Item 795 is -1.0 to effectively
disable the Alarm Item 796. The External Supply voltage is measured on a 10 minute interval. Three consecutively
low readings are required to the trip the Low Voltage Alarm (Item 796) – this is done to help guard against falsely
setting alarm due to a power supply glitch.

Note: The Low Battery Voltage Alarm (Item 99) will not set if an External Supply voltage is present at TB1 with a voltage
level greater than the Battery voltage by over 1.0 VDC. When a Low Battery Voltage Alarm is tripped (set), an Alarm Log
record entry is generated along with updates to time stamp Items 462 and 463.

4. Connecting to EC 350 via MasterLinkSQL (use the latest version available, at least 4.42)

1. Connect the IrDA communication USB

cable to EC 350 as shown in the image.
Connect the other end of the cable to
a USB port on the computer where
MasterLinkSQL is installed.
If there is no MasterLink activity for
several minutes the EC 350 may time
out in which case you should remove
and replace the grey magnetic cable
holder to reactivate the IrDA port.

2. Launch MasterLinkSQL, enter the

access code, and click OK to continue.

8. Operating modes

The EC 350 can be operated in the following modes:

Corrector mode It is the default operating mode. It displays the value of totalized corrected volume.

Level 0 mode It is the scroll list mode where the customer-configured list of items appears on the display.
No passkey is required to access this mode. After the keypad is active, use the or to
scroll through the items in this mode. The items in this mode are read-only.

Level 1 mode It is used for viewing the instrument settings and live parameters.
You do not require any passkey to access this mode. In this mode, the instrument functions are
categorized into 11 submenus. By scrolling through the submenus, you can view over 60 factory-
defined instrument parameters. The items in this mode are read-only.
