2. Main features and functions

Besides measuring temperature and various industrial quantities of multi channels and displaying real

time trends, bar graphs, numeric values, etc. in various formats on 12.1 inch TFT color LCD, this recorder

can store data into the internal memory or a memory card (a CF card) and replay them if required.

Stored data can be used using commercial software like EXCEL, etc.

Easy management

of measurement

result

The monitoring of measurement results is easy since the data are displayed on

various formats of screens. The previous data stored in the CF card can be read

and the stored data can be managed using commercial software like EXCEL

(Registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation), etc.

Various screen

displays

Real time trends, bar graphs, data (in a table format) and combined displays of

“real time trends and bar graphs”, “real time trends and numeric values” and “real

time trends and historical trends” can be arbitrarily selected and monitored with

most suitable screens to meet your requirements. As alarm display screen

displaying past alarm activation status collectively and a marker list screen are also

available.

In addition, up to 6 groups can be registered. With easy operation, these screens

can be switched and 4 separate screens can be displayed.

Various memory

functions

Start/stop of data storage can be executed by arbitrary condition settings like key

operation, alarm settings, time settings, etc. and the simultaneous storage to

maximum 6 files can also be executed. In normal operations, data are stored into

the internal memory and can be saved on the CF memory card.

Analog recorder

feeling

As the trend screen displays data on a chart with scale plates and pointers, the

data can be monitored like an analog recorder.

Marker function

Markers and marker texts (alphanumeric characters, maximum 30 characters) can

be written on the trend screen. A marker text is written arbitrarily, and also 50 types

of marker texts can be registered in advance and these marker texts can be written

with key operations. The marker texts can be written on the historical trend screen

(replay), too. Markings only without marker texts are also available.

MODBUS

communication

Parameter settings, data acquisition and operation can be executed with the optional

high order communication. As the communication protocol utilizes MODBUS, this

recorder can communicate with a program indicator equipped with the MODBUS

protocol without creating any communication software and the configuration of a

system is easy. (MODBUS: The registered trademark of Schneider Electric SA)

Consumables not

required

Since consumables like charts, pens and inks as used in recorders are not required,

this recorder is clean and less time consuming.

Easy setup

The easy interactive parameter setting offers parameter settings by selecting a

setting item from the menu screen with key or touch-panel operation and then by

opening a window.

Also the operation can be executed easily with the required parameter settings on

the ”Simple settings (HOME)” screen.

Software

package is

available

Data analysis can be executed easily on the PC as software package for data

analysis is available.

●Software for analysis : (Windows98,Me,2000,XP version)
