5.1.6  Setting Burnout Action (for the model code 3 only)

  Set the burnout action in 

[D39:BURN OUT]

. Set “OFF”, “UP”, 

or “DOWN.”

 CAUTION

 • Changing the burnout action direction resets the input 

adjusted value and the wiring resistance corrected 

value.

 • Changing the input range resets the input adjusted 

value.

 •

Execute the wiring resistance correction when the 

burnout action direction or input wiring is changed. 

5.1.7  Wiring Resistance Correction (for the model code 3 only)

  When an error occurs due to the influence of the input wiring 

resistance, the input can be corrected. Apply a stable input as 

shown below and select EXECUTE in 

[P01: WIRING R]

. The 

correction is also required when the direction of burnout action 

is changed from UP (DOWN) to DOWN (UP) or the wiring for 

input is changed.

5.1.8  External Input Resistance Correction

 

 

(for the model code 1 only)

  For current input, set the external resistance to 

[D13: IN 

RESIST]

. There is a difference between this value and the 

actual external resistance. If this difference causes an error, 

the input can be corrected.

  To perform correction, wire as shown in the figure below, apply 

a stable input equivalent to 100%, and set 

[P40:RESISTOR 

ADJ]

 to EXECUTE.

  If you need perform correction again such as when the 

external resistance is changed, reset the correct value. To do 

so, set 

[P40: RESISTOR ADJ]

 to RESET.

5.2  Settings Related to Alarm Output 

5.2.1 

Alarm Setpoint 

  Set the alarm-1 setpoint and alarm-2 setpoint numerically 

in 

[E01: SET POINT1]

 and 

[E02: SET POINT2]

 for 

thermocouple input and RTD input or in 

[E03: SET POINT1]

 

and 

[E04: SET POINT2]

 for mV input. Set them in [°C/K] for 

temperature input or in [%] for mV input.

 •

Setting range: 0 to 100% of input range 

 •

Setting resolution: 0.1% (for mV input), 4 significant digits 

(for temperature input)

5.2.2  Direction of Alarm Action 

  Select the direction of alarm-1 action and that of alarm-2 

action from among HIGH ALM (high-limit alarm) and LOW 

ALM (low-limit alarm) in 

[E05: ALM1 ACTION]

 and 

[E06: 

ALM2 ACTION]

 •

To activate alarm status when input signal ≥ alarm setpoint, 

select HIGH ALM. 

 •

To activate alarm status when input signal ≤ alarm setpoint, 

select LOW ALM. 

5.2.3  Hysteresis 

  Set the alarm-1 hysteresis and alarm-2 hysteresis numerically 

in 

[E07: HYSTERESIS1]

 and 

[E08: HYSTERESIS2]

 for 

thermocouple input and RTD input or in 

[E09: HYSTERESIS1]

 

and 

[E10: HYSTERESIS2]

 for mV input.

  Hysteresis is a value added to the alarm setpoint in order for 

an alarm status to be released (to normal) after the alarm 

status has been activated. The alarm status will be released in 

the following conditions, depending on the direction of alarm 

action.

*  When HIGH ALM (high-limit alarm) is set: Alarm is released 

when input signal < (alarm setpoint - hysteresis). 

*  When LOW ALM (low-limit alarm) is set: Alarm is released 

when input signal > (alarm se hysteresis). 

  Set them in [°C/K] for temperature input or in [%] for mV input.

 •

Setting range: 0 to 100% of input range 

 •

Setting resolution: 0.1% (for mV input), 4 significant digits 

(for temperature input)

5.2.4  Alarm ON Delay and Alarm OFF Delay 

  Set the alarm-1 ON delay and alarm-2 ON delay numerically in 

[E11: ON DELAY1]

 and 

[E12: ON DELAY2]

. Set the alarm-1 

OFF delay and alarm-2 OFF delay numerically in 

[E13: OFF 

DELAY1]

 and 

[E14: OFF DELAY2]

  An alarm ON delay is a delay time from the establishment of 

alarm conditions to its output; an alarm OFF delay is a delay 

time from the establishment of return-to-normal conditions to 

its output. 

 •

Setting range: 0 to 999 seconds 

 • Setting resolution: 

1 second (However, about 0.2 second is 

to be added to the set time to prevent wrong operation.)

 

  For example, when an alarm ON delay is set to 1 second, 

alarm output is generated if alarm status continues for 1 

second or more after the input value exceeds the alarm 

setpoint. Furthermore, when an alarm OFF delay is set 

to 2 seconds, alarm output is released if normal condition 

continues for 2 seconds or more after the input value has 

returned to normal from the alarm status.

5.2.5  Direction of Relay Action 

  Select the direction of relay energizing in alarm-1 normal 

condition and alarm-2 normal condition from among NRM DE-

ENERGIZED (de-energized under normal condition) and NRM 

ENERGIZED (energized under normal condition) in 

[E15: RL1 

ACTION]

 and 

[E16: RL2 ACTION]

Description of  

alarm actions

The alarm is output if the 

condition where the input value 

is 80% or more of high-limit 

alarm continues for 1 second 

or more.

After the alarm is output, when 

the condition where the input 

value is less than 70% of 

high-limit alarm continues for 

2 seconds or more, the status 

returns to normal.

The alarm is output if the 

condition where the input value 

is 15% or less of low-limit 

alarm continues for 3 seconds 

or more.

After the alarm is output, when 

the condition where the input 

value is more than 20% of 

low-limit alarm continues for 

4 seconds or more, the status 

returns to normal.
