GENERAL DESCRIPTIONS
1.1
PRECAUTIONS TO USE THE MSR128LU ON YOUR PC
1. The MSR128LU is designed as package application, usable on PC running Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
Consider the fact that the MSR128LU constantly reads input signal and plots entire chart screen at its fastest
storing cycle of 0.5 sec. when you choose the CPU and graphic capabilities of PC.
2. DO NOT use another application program while the MSR128LU is running.
3. Remember that the overall reliability of the MSR128LU as a recording device depends upon that of the PC
including its OS.
4. The MSR128LU is designed to use in a single window on a single PC, not for use in multiple windows or to be
shared on LAN.
5. Disable the power saving mode: Select on the PC’s desktop ‘Properties – Screen Saver – Power – Power
Schemes’ and set ‘Never’ to all items. With laptops, disable any key operations to initiate an automatic shutdown
other than the power switch. Disable also the system stand-by mode or any other power saving features.
6. Disable animating screen savers in order to avoid extra load to the PC when running the MSR128LU.
7. It is recommended not to copy more than necessary shortcuts or exe. files on the desktop. We recommend to
delete exe. files related to web site contents in order to avoid any disturbance in plotting.
8. Storing cycles of 500 msec. or slower are usable. High speed mode (50 msec. storing cycle) is unavailable.
9. Use an independent LAN for the MSR128LU. Sharing the network with other systems may cause an instability
or interference on both systems.
10. If you intend to use the PC Recorder in the following environments or conditions, redundant and/or failsafe
system designs should be used to ensure the proper degree of reliability and safety.
–
Environments or conditions which are not defined in this manual
–
Nuclear power control devices, railway control devices, aircraft control devices, transportation vehicles, fuel
control equipment, medical equipment, recreational equipment, safety equipment, and other critical equip-
ment for which safety must be secured according to relevant laws.
–
Those devices which inherently require extremely high level of safety and reliability.
