The indoor case has six 7/8" diameter knockouts for
3/4" conduit fittings. Three are located on the bottom of
the case and three on the back of the case. The three you
use will depend on whether you panel or wall mount the
enclosure.
To reduce the chance of noise on the signal input wires,
the input wires should be routed in separate conduit from
the power wiring.
Local regulations for proper grounding and connection
of the power to the recorder should be strictly followed.
The power wires are connected to the terminals located
on the inside back of the recorder. The AC voltage which
the recorder has been setup will be clearly marked near
the terminal strip. Verify that you are connecting the proper
voltage to the recorder. The terminal labeled H is the High
(black) wire, the terminal labeled N is the Neutral (white)
wire and the terminal labeled G is the Ground (green)
wire. The power wires from the terminal strip to the
circuit board are prewired at the factory.
The terminal blocks on the circuit board have snap on
connectors. To connect the input and output wires, pull
off the connectors from the terminal strips. Route the
signal wires through the flexible wiring raceway between
the back case and front door. Loosen the screws on the
connectors. Strip off about 1/4 inch of insulation from the
wires. Insert the wire into the proper connector and
tighten the screw securely. After connecting all of the
wires to the connector, snap the connector back on the
terminal strip.
The following section describes the proper connections
for the various transmitters that may be used with this
recorder and the connections for the relay outputs and the
4-20 mADC output.
There are three analog input channels and one
frequency input channel. The analog inputs will be setup
for a standard 4-20 mADC input signal unless otherwise
stated on the Data Sheet supplied with the manual. Three
different analog inputs can be connected to the three
analog input channels, but only the selected analog
channel can be recorded on the recorder.

full scale of the transmitter, then the percent for channel
one would be set for 30%. This is to be done for each
channel that is to be summed. After all of the percents
have been set for all of the channels, the sum should total
100%.
Use the UP or DOWN arrow key to adjust the percent
of full scale value. Press the ENTER key to store this
value. After the last channel has been entered the
following screen will appear:
- CHART PEN ZERO -
UP OR DOWN TO MOVE PEN
This screen calibrates the pen zero point on the chart
paper to the zero of the input signal. It is important that the
pen be properly aligned before making this adjustment. The
zero value of the input signals of all the channels to be summed
must be input to the recorder when making this adjustment.
For example, if the input signal is 4-20 mA for 0 to
100%, then 4 mA must be input to all channels to be
summed to make the pen zero adjustment.
Press the UP or DOWN arrow keys to move the pen to
the proper position. No changes will be made to the
previously stored zero value unless the UP or DOWN
arrow keys are pressed. So if the user is stepping through

UP OR DOWN TO MOVE PEN
This screen calibrates the pen span point on the chart
paper to the span of the input signal. The span value of the
input signal for all channels to be summed must be input to the
recorder when making this adjustment. For example, if the
input signal is 4-20 mA for 0 to 100%, then 20 mA must
be input to all the channels to be summed, to make the
pen span adjustment.
Press the UP or DOWN arrow keys to move the pen to
the proper position. No changes will be made to the
previously stored span value unless the UP or DOWN
arrow keys are pressed. So if the user is stepping through
the program to access another programming screen, the
input does not need to be at the span value if the UP or
DOWN arrow keys are not pressed. When pressing the
UP or DOWN arrow key the display will indicate the
direction of the pen movement. Once the pen is
positioned to span on the chart, press the ENTER key. Be
sure to press the ENTER key before changing the input signal.
The next screen to appear will be the Relay Assignment
screen.
- RELAY ASSIGNMENT -
RELAY 01 => LO
This screen allows the assignment of the relays for any
of the alarm functions. The available alarm functions are:
IN - Loss of input signal
LO - Low alarm trip
HI - High alarm trip

ERROR SCREENS
There are several Error Screens that will be displayed
by the recorder if the microprocessor detects errors in the
values programmed into the recorder.
-CHART PEN ZERO-
<INPUT ZERO ERROR>
OR
-CHART PEN SPAN-
<INPUT SPAN ERROR>
If either of the two above Error Screens appear during
the chart pen adjusting procedure, one of the following
problems probably occurred:
1. There was not a 4-20 mADC analog signal to the
recorder analog channel you selected while adjusting the
chart zero span.
2. An analog input signal channel was selected
without adjusting the chart pen zero and span of this
channel.
3. The Zero and Span of the recorder have been
adjusted too close to the same input value.
To correct these errors, readjust the Chart Pen Zero and
Span while inputting the 4-20 mADC analog signal to the
proper selected recorder channel. Refer to the Calibration
Mode Section of this manual.
-STORING PARAMETERS-
<TOTALIZER WORD ERROR>
If the above Error Screen appears after pressing the
ENTER key to store the calibration adjustments, this
indicates that you have selected a totalizer multiplier that
is too low for your selected flow rate. To correct this
error, re-enter the Calibration Mode and when the
Totalizer Multiplier Screen appears, increase the totalizer
multiplier and press the ENTER key. Then press the
MENU key to store the new multiplier and return to the
normal operating screen.
If you still have a Totalizer Word Error message in the
Storing Parameters screen, repeat the above procedure
until the error is not present.

HEXADECIMAL SYSTEM
The purpose of the hexadecimal number system is
simply to reduce the number of units necessary for
representing any given numerical figure, thereby reducing
the amount of space in memory necessary to retain it.
Herein, a decimal (normal) number is converted to a
correct hexadecimal number which consists of fewer
characters.
The hexadecimal number system consists of only 16
characters which are shown below by the boldface
characters.
0 = 0
1 = 1
2 = 2
3 = 3
4 = 4
5 = 5
6 = 6
7 = 7
8 = 8
9 = 9
10 = A
11 = B
12 = C
13 = D
14 = E
15 = F
These characters may be arranged in various sequences to produce an infinite number of representations of decimal
numbers. For example: 6D4C = 27,980.
CONVERSION OF DECIMAL WHOLE NUMBER TO HEXADECIMAL NUMBER
1. Divide the decimal number by 16.
Example: 57420/16 = 3588.75
2. Multiply only the fractional part of the product by 16
to arrive at the first character in the hexadecimal
equivalent. Remember, all numbers produced I this step
are shown above. Also note that the product may have no
fraction (.000) which would result in zero as the
hexadecimal number.
Example: .75 x 16 = 12 = C
3. Divide the whole number portion of the product by 16
thereby producing yet another number.
Example: 3588/16 = 224.25
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 in a cyclical fashion until the
numerator to be divided in Step 3 is less than 16. At that
point, the numerator represents the final character in the
hexadecimal sequence.
EXAMPLE: Convert 57,420 into a hexadecimal number:
1.) 57,420/16 = 3588.75
2.) .75 X 16 = 12 = C
3.) 3,588/16 = 224.25
2.) .25 X 16 = 4
3.) 224/16 = 14.00
2.) .00 X 16 = 0
3.) 14 = E
57,420 = E04C

17
CONVERSION OF A WHOLE HEXADECIMAL NUMBER TO A DECIMAL NUMBER
1. Multiply the left most character in the hexadecimal number by 16.
Example: E= 14 X 16 = 224
2. Add to the product previously found the value of the next character.
Example: 224 + 0 = 224
3. Multiply the previously found product by 16.
Example: 224 X 16 = 3584
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 in a cyclical fashion until you have added the last
hexadecimal character. Do not multiply beyond that point.
EXAMPLE: Convert E04C into a decimal number.
1.) E= 14; 14 X 16 = 224
2.) 224 + 0 = 224
3.) 224 X 16 = 3584
2.) 3584 + 4 = 3588
3.) 3588 X 16 = 57,408
4.) 57,408 + 12 = 57,420
E04C = 57,420
