Preface
This instruction manual explains the specifications and instructions of the Ethernet communications interface for
AL3000 series hybrid recorders, AH3000hybrid recorders, BR1000 series graphic recorders, and SE3000 series field
scanners.
For using this interface safely and preventing any troubles, make sure to read this instruction manual before operation.

1 Outline
By connecting the Ethernet communications interface (Ethernet IF) for AL3000 series hybrid
recorders, AH3000 series hybrid recorders, BR1000 series graphic recorders, SE3000 series field
scanners with Local Area Network (LAN) configured by Ethernet (10BASE-T), you can browse real
time data of the networked instruments and set up their parameters (partly) by using the WWW
browser on your personal computer (PC) connected with the LAN. Also, you can execute data
acquisition by using our software package KIDS or parameter settings by PASS.
Note: Any clients whose network is different cannot access to this network.
2 Function
2.1 Protocol configuration
The protocols of MODBUS, HTTP, TCP, and IP are available
in this Ethernet software. These protocols have the relation
shown in the right figure. In these protocols, you can exactly
use the protocols of MODBUS and HTTP that have the
following functions.
1) MODBUS(one client)
For data acquisition of the networked instruments by our software package KIDS, setting up of
their parameters by PASS, and communications with the networked instruments by
custom-made application software.
2) HTTP (five clients)
For browsing of the Ethernet IF Web pages by WWW browsers (Internet Explorer, etc.)
2.2 Ethernet IF Web page
Menu Menu page of the Ethernet IF Web page. It links to other pages.
Instrument information
check page
Displays information including the model number, its number of
input and its IP address.
Data monitor Displays the real-time data and the alarm activation status of
each channel.
BR file Open/Close operation
Opens or Closes BR files.
This page is only effective to BR series.
Instrument setting page Sets up the parameters (partly) of each channel.
Ethernet IF setup Sets up an IP address, etc.

3 Explanation of each part
Ethernet IF consists of one connector, one LED, and one push button switch.
BR/AL/AH SE3000
The following functions are commonly available in the Ethernet IFs for BR1000/AL3000/AH3000
and for SE3000.
(1) LINK lamp: Lights when the Ethernet IF is electrically connected with your PC or a hub.
(2) RST switch: Reset switch for restarting the Ethernet IF(Re-connection takes 1 or 2 minutes.)
(3) RJ-45 connector: For connection to a LAN cable (Be sure to use a shielded twisted-pair cable
( STP ).)
4 Wirings
4.1 Wirings
4.1.1 Connection with PC by 1 to 1
For the connection of the Ethernet IF with a PC by 1 to 1, a crossed STP is to be used.
4.1.2 Connection with PC by N to N
(For connection with multiple units or with an existing LAN)
For the connection of multiple PCs or Ethernet IFs, use a hub and a straight STP to connect the hub
to the Ethernet IF.
As shown in a figure, please attach a ferrite core in the instrument side of a LAN cable.
