2 DS/SM3000–EN Rev. AA | SM3000 | Multipoint videographic recorder
Advanced Process Recording
36 recording channels are provided as standard which can be used to record any analog,
digital or communications (via Modbus) signal.
Each group can be stored at it's own primary or secondary sample rate. This allows detailed
information to be stored under specific process conditions, e.g. critical process states or alarm
conditions. Alternatively, for simple applications one sample rate can be applied to all
channels.
Through the use of pre-storage filters it is possible to record the average, max./min. or
instantaneous values of any recording channel.
8 MB of internal memory is provided for buffering of process data. Once this memory is full it
wraps-around automatically and overwrites the oldest data, ensuring that the latest process
data is always captured.
All data recorded by the SM3000 is available to archive to the removable storage media.
During periods when a card is not present or is full, data is still recorded into the SM3000's internal memory. When a card is inserted
or space becomes available on the card unarchived data can be transferred to the card.
Security
High specification data security compliant with 21 CFR Part II.
A media door lock is fitted as standard to prevent unauthorized access to the memory card.
Multiple users can be configured, each with an individual user name and password.
Comprehensive security options, including password expiry and configurable access levels,
ensure the exceptional security of the SM3000.
Operator actions, data archiving events, configuration changes and other system occurrences
are all saved to the audit log of the SM3000. Each entry is time, date and, where appropriate,
stamped with a user ID, providing a comprehensive audit trail to accompany any data recorded
by the SM3000.
All data files contained within the SM3000's 8 MB of internal buffer memory, or created on memory cards, are encoded in a secure
binary format ensuring that recorded data cannot be altered.
Two security modes are available for protection of the instrument's configuration. Multiple users can be configured, each with
individual passwords and access levels or, as an alternative, a tamper-evident seal can be fitted to the front of the recorder. In this
mode the configuration of the recorder can only be altered by first changing the position of an internal switch. To accomplish this the
recorder must be removed from it's case, breaking the seal.
Guaranteed Data Integrity
The use of Flash memory technology ensures that the SM3000 is not reliant on batteries to preserve
stored data during a power failure.
Data stored in the internal memory and on removable media is stored in small blocks with each block
containing a checksum to ensure the integrity of that data.
An advanced error detection/correction code is built into the internal Flash memory, ensuring safe
storage of your process data.
Industrial Standard, Robust, Archive Storage
A Compact Flash memory card option can be fitted to the SM3000 for archive purposes. The
solid-state nature of these cards ensures that the SM3000 can truly operate in ambient
temperatures up to 50 ºC (122 ºF), whereas traditional electromagnetic floppy disk drives can
operate only in temperatures up to 40 ºC (104 ºF).
Every write to the archive storage media is verified to ensure the integrity of the data.

21 CFR part 11 Compliance and GAMP Validation Package
With its comprehensive audit trail, secure archiving format and extensive physical and configuration security features, the SM3000 is ideally
suited to applications where compliance to 21CFR part 11 (the FDA's regulations regarding electronic record keeping) is required (for
further information refer to INF02/70A).
In keeping with this, a template for validating the SM3000 videographic recorder is available. Following GAMP 5 (a risk-based approach
to compliant GxP computerized systems), the template is designed to make the validation process as simple as possible and provides an
IQ and OQ that is completed at the customer site, before and after installation. Once completed, the template is then packaged together
with other documentation relating to the system as a whole, ready to be presented to the governing regulatory body for inspection.
Low Cost of Ownership
The large capacity of the Compact Flash memory cards used by the SM3000 ensures that the requirement for operator intervention to
transfer process data to a PC on a regular basis is greatly reduced. Older floppy disk technology, used by many other manufacturers of
graphical recorders, limits storage capability significantly; sometimes to levels below the ability of a traditional paper recorder.
See below for an example of how memory storage times vary depending on the type of media device. The example shows the recording
durations for a 6-channel recorder with a sample rate of 10 s. Also included in the example is how these storage times compare with a
traditional paper recorder.

Intuitive User Interface
Unsurpassed Environmental Protection
Unique to this type of product, the SM3000 has unrivalled protection
ratings of IP66 and NEMA4X and includes a fully-sealed, lockable
media door. This enables the SM3000 to be installed, without
additional protection, in applications that require frequent
hosedown. With industrial standard noise emission and immunity
protection, the SM3000 also operates effectively in high
electrical-noise environments.

Operator Views
The 36 recording channels of the SM3000 can be freely distributed between 6
process groups and displayed using a number of different operator views. In addition
to the standard strip chart views, the following views are available:
Circular Chart View
Up to six trends can be plotted on a circular chart. In addition to digital
indicators, including alarm status and totalizer values, a log is constantly in view
showing a list of recent alarm activity.
Digital Indicator View
Process value, engineering units, channel tag, totalizers and alarm status are all
displayed clearly. An overview screen provides an at-a-glance view of all 36
recording channels.
Process View
Provides an at-a-glance summary of each channel, including detailed alarm,
totalizer and statistical (min., max. & average) information.
Bargraph View
Horizontal or vertical formats, including min./max. and alarm trip point markers.
Historical Logs
Providing functions unavailable in paper-based recorders, three full-time and
date-stamped historical logs ensure complete validity of the recorder and it's data.
Any or all of these logs can be archived to the removable memory card.
Totalizer Log
All totalizer activity, e.g. starts, stops and resets, are recorded by the totalizer
log. In addition individual log intervals can be configured for each totalizer,
allowing total values to be logged regularly.
Alarm Event Log
A detailed history of all alarm occurrences, including active and inactive
transitions plus acknowledgement details.
Audit Log
The highly-detailed secure log of all system events gathered by the Audit Log
provides comprehensive evidence of the integrity, validity and traceability of
data recorded by the SM3000. Included in the log are configuration changes,
data archiving events, calibration adjustments, details of remote accesses and
many more key events, all marked with operator IDs where applicable.
Configuration
A simple Windows-style structure provides an exceptionally easy approach to the
setup of the SM3000. Text and numerical information is entered very quickly via an
on-screen keyboard. Navigation of configuration menus is performed via the cursor
keys and the pop-up menu.
It is also possible to configure the SM3000 via a Windows-based PC configuration
package.
