BASIC OPERATION

POWER-UP

Upon  switching  on  the  power  to  the  unit,  the  display  shows  model  name  on  the  Upper  Row  and  the  Firmware  Version 

Number on the Lower Row for approximately 4 seconds as shown below. 

UniRec               USB
Version           1.0.1.0

After  the  power-up  display  sequence,  the  UniRec  starts  showing  the  process  values  for  all  the  Device  Channels 

sequentially. This is the MAIN Display Mode that shall be used most often.  

MAIN DISPLAY MODE

This is the default display mode. This mode actually comprises of 4 different screens providing different information. The 4 

screens  are  described  below.  Use  Enter  key  (press  and  release)  to  switch  from  one  screen  to  the  next.  The  multiple 

information within a selected screen can be viewed using UP / DOWN keys.

Process Value Screen 

This is the default screen upon entering the Main Display Mode. The Upper Row shows the Device channel name and the 

Lower Row shows the corresponding process value along with user set Units as shown below. 

Oven Temp

Device Channel Name

Process Value

Units

120  C

In case of process value error, the Lower Row indicates the type of error in place of process value and units. The various 

errors and the respective causes are listed in Table 2.1. 

Table 2.1

           Process Value below Min. Range

 Error Message

Cause

Communication Link with Device broken

Com. Fail        

The channel-wise  process value updates depend  upon the selected Auto / Manual scan mode. The scan mode can be 

toggled between Auto and Manual by holding the ENTER key pressed for approximately 5 Seconds. The front panel LED 

indicator  glows  ON  in Auto  mode  and  remains  OFF  in  Manual  mode.  The  channel  update  rate  in Auto  mode  depends 

upon the set value (1 to 99 Sec.) for the parameter ‘Scan Rate’. In Manual mode, the channels can be scrolled using UP 

and DOWN keys.  

Alarm Status Information

 Screen

The UniRec monitors and stores the Alarm status for the first two Alarms of each connected Device Channels. If any one 

or more set Alarms for a channel is active, the channel is said to be under Alarm condition. The names for the channels 

under Alarm condition keep flashing on the Upper Row in Process Value screen. 

The complete Alarm status information for the channels under Alarm condition is available on this Screen. For example;  If  

Alarm1  (AL1)  and Alarm2    (AL2)  of  a  channel  named  ‘Boiler  Pressure’  is  active  then  the  screen  displays  the  following 

information.
