8-2. Input Type Settings “Range”
Parameters including range, RJ (internal/external switching of reference junction compensation), scale and unit can be set
collectively for each channel.
1. Parameters
1) Input
Set the input type (INPUT), range (RANGE-L/H) and RJ internal/external (RJ) in accordance with the
sensor to be connected (thermocouple or resistance thermometer) and the target measuring range.
2) Burnout
If a sensor (thermocouple or resistance thermometer) or input cable is disconnected, chart recording jumps
to the upper (UP) or lower (DOWN) limit. This can be reflected to the display or output.
3) Scale
Set the scale used for display or recording of actual input after setting input type (INPUT) and range
(RANGE-L/H).
Scale setting (SCALE) is required when displaying/recording a voltage input from a converter with an
arbitrary scale. In this case, the scale should use arbitrary scale factor of the voltage input. For
thermocouple or resistance thermometer input, only the position of decimal point can be specified.
4) Chart recording range
Set the recording range of chart. Specify 0% position of chart with REC-L and 100% position with REC-H.
5) Sensor
correction
Measurement value is offset by the specified value. Use this function to adjust the zero point.
6) Unit
Arbitrary characters can be set as unit. However, when numeric characters are set, you may find it difficult
to distinguish the unit from measured data at data printing.
Up to six digits can be set, and upper two digits are printed only at digital printing.
Unit is set to “01”.
Measured data is “291.3” in this case.
7) Tag
Tag name can be attached to each channel data.
8) Display, trace printing, digital recording/printing, SD card recording ON/OFF
Select ON or OFF for each display/recording.
Up to five digits (six digits when including a minus sign) can be set for the upper/lower limit of range, scale and chart
recording.
For numeric value settings with a decimal fraction, the lower/upper range should be -30000 to 30000 and the
lower/upper scale and chart recording should be -30000 to 99999 with decimals excluded.
Valid number of digits
Note
Connecting a thermocouple in parallel with another instrument may cause a trouble. If it has to be done, make sure to
select “None” for burnout.
Please note that the recording accuracy is not guaranteed in this case.
Set “None” for parallel operation
