4. CONNECTIONS 4.2

Observe the following cautions during connections for securing safety and reliability.

Power supply

1

Use a single-phase power supply having a stable voltage without any waveform distortion for the purpose of preventing wrong operations.

Warning

Prepare a switch and an overcurrent protective device (3 A) to the power supply for preventing an accidental electric shock during connection work. This instrument is not provided with any replaceable overcurrent protective device.

Warning

Make sure to turn off the power supply before connecting the power and the input/output terminals to prevent an electric shock.

2 Keep the input/output connections

away from high voltage power circuits

Don’t place the input/output cables close to or in parallel with any strong power circuits including power lines. Place the cables 50cm or more away from high voltage power circuits when they are placed close to or in parallel to other circuits.

3 Keep the thermocouple input away

from a heat source

For thermocouple inputs, keep the input terminals away from a heat source (a heating body) to reduce a reference junction compensation error. Don’t expose the input terminals to direct sunlight, etc.

5 Use crimp style terminals

(1) Mount crimp style terminals for connection

cable terminations to prevent any looseness or disconnection of terminals or a short-circuit failure between terminals.

(2) Use the crimp style terminals with an

insulation sleeve to prevent an electric shocks.

6 Unused terminals

Don’t use any unused terminals for relaying, otherwise the electric circuits may be damaged.

Secure the connected

(Note) Input exceeding the measuring range or printing range is printed as an over-range.

Cautions on Programming and Reference

2

Read the following cautions and reference items. The programming flow charts are described on the next page.

1) Minimum printing range

Read the “minimum printing range” on Section 22.1 (Input Specifications). A programming error occurs if the minimum value and the maximum value are set to the same figure.

2) Position of decimal point The printing range reflects to the scale value. The decimal point position on actual display/printing is fixed by the range No. selected. For changing it, refer to the scale programming.

Range No.

0 to 200 0 to 200 0.0 to 200.0

0.0 to 800.0 0.0 to 800.0 0 to 800

3) When “Range/Printing range” is changed, the last scale value becomes ineffective and is replaced with the

11.2 Scale

“Scale” programming is necessary to display a voltage input from a converter, etc. with an actual scale. However, the scale is programmed with the same characteristic scale (not linearized scale) as the voltage input. This programming is also necessary when the decimal point position is changed in thermocouple or resistance thermometer input channels. Press and simultaneously in the operation screen to display the

SCALE

“scale” programming.

Concept of scale programming

Programming Scale

1

This is the actual scale (physical quantity) programming for the printing range being programmed in the [Range/Printing range].

Printing range will be copied

2

When programming the [Range/Printing range], the printing range is copied to the programming value of the scale.

If the scale copied from the printing range is used, the decimal point positions programmed by the printing range are neglected and the measured values with decimal point positions fixed by range number are displayed. The following table shows the cautions to be observed according to the input types.

Scale programming is not required when the scale is equal to the printing range. They are copied to scale programming, but be careful with the decimal point positions for the scale. See item 3 .

Since the printing range is copied to the scale, no programming scale is necessary, but the decimal point position of the measured value is fixed by the range number. For changing the decimal places, refer to 3 .

Note 1: Decimal point position of the measured value is fixed

Note 2: Decimal point positions of the programmed scale

become effective because different decimal place are programmed on printing range and scale. See item (2).

the printing range. The decimal point position of the programmed scale becomes effective.
