• Install the instrument paying attention to prevent
foreign matters such as scraps, electric wire chips,
and iron powder from entering in the instrument.
Otherwise malfunction or failure my result.
• Do not use the wires other than the specified com-
pensation conducting wires for the thermocouple
input connection. Otherwise improper indication or
malfunction may result.
• Use a wiring cable with low resistance and with
small resistance difference among the three wires
for the resistance bulb input connection. Otherwise
improper indication or malfunction may result.
• This equipment is the panel-mount type. The panel-
mount type is the equipment that is designed based
on that the equipment is set on control panels etc.
for accident prevention, such as, electric shock
caused by contact to products. In other words,
there are possibilities to occur accidents including
electric shock unless setting it on a control panel
etc. (For example, inserting a wire etc. to the cooling
slit on the product's main body.)
This equipment should be set on the metallic case
if only to control the electromagnetic interference
(EMI) from products. The structure of metallic cases
should be the one that the electromagnetic interfer-
ence does not leak outside.
• LAN cable should be stored in the metallic duct and
wiring in it.
2.4 Cautions in Operation
• Check every six months that the terminal screws
and mounting screws are securely fastened. Loose
screws may cause fire or malfunction.
• When changing the setting during the operation or
forcibly outputting, starting or stopping the instru-
ment, be sure to check that safety is ensured. Im-
proper operation may result in damage or failure of
the instrument.
• Be sure to keep the attached terminal cover mount-
ed on the terminal block during the operation. Oth-
erwise electric shock or fire may result.
• Stop using the instrument if it is immersed in water.
Otherwise electric leak, electric shock, or fire may
result.
• Never use organic solvents such as alcohol or ben-
zene when cleaning this instrument. Do not directly
water the main unit. Otherwise deterioration, fail-
ure, electric leak, electric shock, or fire may result.
When cleaning the main unit, wipe with a dry cloth.
• Dispose the instrument as an industrial waste.
• This product contains a CR Coin Lithium Battery
which contains Perchlorate Material-special han-
dling may apply.

2.5 Handling memory card (Compact Flash)
• We recommend to use our separately-sold compact
flash which we ensure performance.
Specifications of commercial compact flashes may
be changed without advance notice. Please not
that we can not guarantee their normal operation.
1) Be sure to format the memory card with the PC
you use.
Format it as FAT16 or FAT. If it is formatted as
NTFS, for example, it cannot be used because
the PHW does not recognize it.
2) The memory card should be inserted in the
proper direction and fixed securely to the slot.
3) Don’t turn OFF the power or remove the card
from the slot while data is being written in or read
from the card, or recorded data may be damaged
or lost.
4) We recommend you to back up the data con-
tained in the card once a month. If the CF card
is broken, the important log data contained in CF
card will be lost. Be sure to back up the data.
Before using a compact flash card adaptor, check
the capacity of the adaptor. If the capacity of the
memory card to be formatted is larger than that
of the adaptor, do not format the card. If the card
is formatted, a display may appear on Windows
indicating that formatting is completed, but PHW
does not recognize the completion of formatting.
5) Compact flash in the capacity range from 8MB to
1GB can be used.
6) The data recorded in the compact flash can be
regenerated on the PC by using the data viewer
(contained in the attached CD-ROM).
If the data is recorded in ASCII format, it can be
directly opened in a spreadsheet such as EXCEL.
However, large-amount data cannot be opened
(about 10MB or larger in the case of 9-point input,
and about 5MB or larger in the case of 18-point
input).
In those cases, read in data with the data viewer
(contained in the attached CD-ROM), and per-
form CSV conversion to divide the file, which
allows the data to be read in.
The data recorded in binary format cannot be
directly opened in a spreadsheet such as EXCEL.
Be careful not to make the size of a file too large
even if a large-capacity CF card is used. (Keep it
to 10MB or less.)
