4.  DESCRIPTION OF FRONT PANEL AND 

CONNECTION OF SETTING TOOLS

4.1  Front Panel

The communications connector in the front panel is used for setting 

up parameters through a PC (VJ77 PC-based Parameters Setting 

Tool) or the Handy Terminal. The RLY1 and RLY2 LEDs light up if a 

contact is ON 

(those LEDs are provided only when the output-2 is 

specified for contact output (the output-2 suffix code is T).)

4.2  Connector for Communication

Use the connector for communication when setting the 

parameters using a PC (VJ77 Parameters Setting Tool) or the 

Handy Terminal.

The modular jack conversion adapter does not come with the 

JHT200 Handy Terminal.  It is sold separately.

5.  SETTING PARAMETERS 

Set the parameters using a PC (VJ77 Parameter Setting Tool) or 

the Handy Terminal. Refer to 

“7. LIST OF PARAMETERS”

 in this 

manual and the User’s Manual for VJ77 PC-based Parameters 

Setting Tool (IM 77J01J77-01E) or the User’s Manual for JHT200 

Handy Terminal (IM 77J50H01-01EN).

5.1  Settings Related to Inputs and Outputs

5.1.1  Input Type 

  Set by selecting input type from among VOLTS (DC voltage) 

and CURRENT (DC current) in 

[D12: INP TYPE]

5.1.2  Setting Input Resistance

  When the input is DC current signal, set the external 

resistance in 

[D13:IN RESIST]

 (see Chapter 3, "EXTERNAL 

WIRING"). For example, enter "250" when the input is 4 to 20 

mA DC.

5.1.3  Input Range 

  Set the 0% value of input range to 

[D24: INPUT1 L_RNG]

 

and the 100% value of input range to 

[D25: INPUT1 H_RNG]

 

within the numerically specified range.

 CAUTION

In case the input range is changed after factory-ship, 

the instrument may not work within the rated accuracy 

range depending on the changed input range. Perform 

the adjustment following the maintenance of this 

instruction manual after changing the input range.

5.1.4  Selection of Program Function

  Select the following communication functions in 

[D45:PRGM 

SELECT]

.

  (A) free program, (B) moving average, (C) dead time, (D) first-

order lag, (E) first-order lead, (F) velocity limiter, (G) limiter, 

(H) velocity computation, (J) linearizer, and (K) ratio setter

5.1.5  Computation Cycle Time

  Set the computation cycle time by selecting either 100 ms or 

200 ms in 

[D48:CYCLE TIME]

. Displayed only when D45 is 

"A".

5.1.6  Direction of Output Action

  Analog output signals can be reversed. To reverse the signal 

from output-1, set 

[D50: OUT1 DR]

 to REVERSE.  For 

output-2, set 

[D51 OUT2 DR]

 to REVERSE.  To return the 

output-1 signal to normal, set 

[D50: OUT1 DR]

 to DIRECT.  

For output-2, set 

[D51: OUT2 DR]

 to DIRECT. Displayed only 

when D45 is other than "A".

5.1.7 

External Input Resistance Correction

  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 Communication 

Function 

Set the following parameters when output-2 is specified 

for communication function. For more information on the 

communication function, see the Instruction Manual for VJ Series 

Communication Function (IM 77J1J11-01E). 

5.2.1  Communication Protocol 

  Set the communication protocol by selecting from among PC-

LINK, PC-LINK WITH SUM, MODBUS ASCII, MODBUS RTU, 

and LADDER in 

[F01: PROTOCOL]

5.2.2  Communication Address 

  Set the address number of the isolator numerically in a range 

of 1 to 99 in 

[F02: ADDRESS]

5.2.3  Baud Rate 

  Set the baud rate by selecting from among 1200, 2400, 4800, 

9600, 19200 and 384000 bps in 

[F03: BAUD RATE]

.

5.2.4  Parity 

  Select and set NONE, EVEN, or ODD in 

[F04: PARITY]

5.2.5  Data Length 

  Select and set 7 bits or 8 bits in 

[F05: DATA LEN]

5.2.6  Stop Bit 

  Select and set 1 bit or 2 bits in 

[F06: STOP BIT]

5.2.7  Decimal Point Position

  Number of decimals of input value (setting of D register 

[D0003]) can be set. Select the number of decimals from 

among 0 to 5 in 

[F07: INPUT DEC PT]

.
