Cautions on Connections

4. CONNECTIONS 4.2

Observe the following cautions during connections for securing safety and reliability.

Power supply

Keep the input/output connections

away from noise source

Keep all connection cables away from noise

source as far as possible, otherwise a malfunction

may occur. Provide a solution if the cables cannot

be separated from a noise source due to

unavoidable circumstances.

Use a single-phase power supply having a stable

voltage without any waveform distortion for the

purpose of preventing wrong operations.

A switch and an overcurrent

protective device

Warning

Prepare a switch and an overcurrent

protective device (3 A) to the power

supply for preventing an accidental

electric shock during connection work.

This instrument is not provided with any

replaceable overcurrent protective device.

Major noise sources

Remedial measures

Insert noise filters

between power

terminals and

input/output terminals.

A CR filter is often used.

Electromagnetic switch,

etc. Power line having

waveform distortion,

Inverter, Thyristor regulator

Turn off the power supply

Warning

before starting connections

5 Use crimp style terminals

(1) Mount crimp style terminals for connection

cable terminations to prevent any looseness

or disconnection of terminals or a short-circuit

failure between terminals.

Make sure to turn off the power supply

before connecting the power and the

input/output terminals to prevent an

electric shock.

(2) Use the crimp style terminals with an

insulation sleeve to prevent an electric

shocks.

Don’t use any unused terminals for relaying,

otherwise the electric circuits may be damaged.

Don’t place the input/output cables close to or in

parallel with any strong power circuits including

power lines. Place the cables 50cm or more away

from high voltage power circuits when they are

placed close to or in parallel to other circuits.

Secure the connected

Warning

cables properly.

Secure the connected cables so as not to

allow them to be hooked by a person or a

substance, otherwise the connections may

be cut and disrupted, and may cause an

electric shock or other accidents.

3 Keep the thermocouple input away

from a heat source

For thermocouple inputs, keep the input terminals

away from a heat source (a heating body) to

reduce a reference junction compensation error.

Don’t expose the input terminals to direct sunlight,

etc.

2 Cautions on Programming and Reference

Read the following cautions and reference items. The programming flow charts are described on the next page.

1) Minimum printing range

Read the “minimum printing range” on Section 22.1 (Input Specifications). A programming error occurs if the

minimum value and the maximum value are set to the same figure.

2) Position of decimal point

Actual position

of decimal

point

Range No.

(Measuring range)

The printing range reflects to the

scale value. The decimal point

position on actual display/printing is

fixed by the range No. selected. For

changing it, refer to the scale

programming.

Printing range

℃

)

0 to 200

23 (-200 to 1370

3) When “Range/Printing range” is changed, the last scale value becomes ineffective and is replaced with the

new printing range.

4) Channel for subtract printing

Different range programming procedure is required. Read Section 11.4 (Programming Subtract Printing).

5) Programming a same range to other channels

The [copy] function is useful. Read Section 11.14.

6) Scaling

Printing range reflects to the scale value. For scale programming to the channel with voltage input, read

Section 11.2.

The electromotive force of the thermocouple input is reduced by an amount proportional to the temperature

adjustment is executed by inputs based on the reference electromotive force (0°C reference). In case the

“RJ selection” is set to “1” (Enable) in the “Range/Printing range” programming, an amount equivalent to the

reference junction compensation has to be subtracted using a reference junction compensator.

Never repair or modify the instrument by replacing assembled component units or parts, otherwise correct

repair or modifications cannot be executed and also electric shock or damage of your recorder may occur.

1 Not Working

Check

Causes and remedial measures

1) Check if power is supplied to the power

terminals.

Turn on the external power supply source.

2) Check if the power supply is as specified.

3) Check if the connections to the power

terminals are correct.

Supply the specified power (100 to 240V AC and 50/60 Hz).

Connect the cable to the power terminals (L, N) correctly.

4) Try turning off or on the external power supply source.

5) Initialize the parameters and check if your recorder recovers to normal conditions. See Section 20.

(Caution) All parameters become the default values. Program them again.

2 Measured Value Abnormal

Symptoms

Causes and remedial measures

• Check if the measuring terminals are loose.

• Check if the input signal is unstable.

• Check if the thermocouple is connected with another

instrument in parallel and the burnout function is programmed

to [Enable].

1) Measured values are unstable.

• Check if the input terminals are connected correctly.

• Check if the input terminals are loose.

2) Check if the measured value is displayed
