4. WIRING

4.1 Before doing the wiring

To carry out wiring, remove the unit's rear cover (Notes).
(1) For the power cable, use a 600V vinyl-insulated cable (JIS C 3307) or a cable with equal or supe-

rior performance to this.
(2) Use compensating leads for thermocouple inputs.
(3) To avoid the effects of induction noise, keep input signal leads as far away as possible (at least

30cm) from power supply lines and lines carrying heavy current. Also, wherever possible use a

shieled cable and earth one point of the shield.
(4) For wiring the terminals, use a maximum of 2 crimp style terminals.

Notes

(1) To remove the rear cover, put a finger in a cable

through-hole in the cover, gently raise the cover
and then pull outwards.

(2) After wiring up the input terminals, always re-

place the rear cover in its original position so as
to ensure proper compensation of reference con­tacts for thermocouple inputs.

(3) We recommend the use of insulation-sleeve

solderless terminals (using M4 thread) for con­necting wires to terminals.

4.2 Connection of wires to terminals

(1) Input terminals

➪ Connect signal leads for each channel.
(2) Alarm, external control unit (option)

➪ Connect the alarm signal outputs and ex-

ternal control signal inputs (for alarms 1

5.1 Loading chart paper

Step 1 Riffle and loosen the recording paper so as to

prevent overlapping feed.

Step 2 Open the front flap, push the paper hold-down

roller to the right and detach it.

To replace chart paper while recording is in
progress, carry out the above after pressing
the RECORD key to stop recording.

Step 3 Raise the lever that is on the right.

This releases the lock, the paper feeder moves
downward and paper holder can be seen.

5 - 1INP-TN4PHAV-E

Step 4 With round holes (small holes) in the recording

paper located on the left-hand side, set the re­cording paper so that its leading edge with both
corners cut off comes to this side. Then insert
the leading edge into the container with the print­ing face located upward.

Butt the recording paper to the left-hand end and
set the recording paper in this position at this
time. Furthermore, be careful so that the recording
paper will not be located aslant. In addition, droop
the first two or three folds of the recording pa­per into the recording paper receiver.

Step 5 Press the chart paper so that its holes engage with

the sprockets and then, without further adjust­ment, return the paper holder to its original place.

Make sure that the chart paper does not lift up.

Note: If chart paper lifts up and contacts the re-

cording head, it can prevent ink coming
out. It can also cause improper paper feed.

Step 6 Return the paper hold-down roller to its original

position.
Check to make sure that the chart paper is straight
and that its holes are properly engaged with the
sprockets.
In order to prevent the chart paper slipping to the
left or right,

Step 7 Press the FEED key and check that the chart

paper is fed out smoothly. (Feed out about 2 folds
of paper.)
<If the paper is not fed out smoothly, go through
the procedure from Step 2 again.>

Note 1: Selection of chart paper

The chart paper greatly affects the quality of the printed recording and it is also related to prob­lems such as paper jamming, etc.
Please be sure to use the pure-quality chart paper specified by us.
Chart paper type:PEX00BL1-1000B (100 equal divisions, no time lines)

Note 2: Use of the recorder after it has been left unused for a long time

If the recorder is left unused for a long time with chart paper still in the main unit, the paper 'packs
down' and if the recorder is used straightway there can be problems of paper jamming, etc.
If you use the equipment after it has been left unused for a long time, first press the FEED key to
feed out 2 to 3 folds of the paper.

Reference 1: Chart paper length

The chart paper is approximately 20m long. This permits about 31 days continuous print­out at a paper feed speed of 25mm/h.

Reference 2: Chart paper end mark

The amount of chart paper remaining is indicated by digits (units : cm) on the right-hand
side of the paper. When there is only a small amount left, red letters appear on the right­hand edge.
If the recording paper runs out completely, a recording paper end indicator displays 'Chart
end' in the display section and recording automatically stops.

5.2 Recording head installation (replacement)

The recording head has ink and a head for recording in an integral assembly.
If the ink gets used up or if it happens that there is a fault, the head can easily be replaced.
As the recording head is a very delicate element, please carefully read the 'Precautions" that are noted
later and handle the head with care during replacement work.

Step 1 Get the recording head ready by taking it out of

its aluminium pack.

Step 2 Tear the tape.

Open the cap by turning it in the direction indi­cated by the arrow.
(If the head is not going to be used for a long
time, close the cap back in its original position.)
The cap is integral with the head unit. Turn it
about 180° until it stops against the tope of the
head.

Step 3 Lightly press the nozzle surface (the surface

from which ink is discharge). Make sure that
the cloth is properly impregnated with the 4
colors blue, red, yellow and black.

First press the cloth against the surface for 2
to 3 second; if the 4 colors ooze out, it is OK.

How to close the cap

Precautions in handling recording heads

Note 1: If recording is halted and the recorder is not used for a long time

Carry out the following in order to prevent jamming and drying-up of the ink.

Remove the recording head from the main unit, make absolutely sure the cap is closed
properly and store the head in a cool, dark place (average temperature 5 to 30

If the head is left installed in the recorder:

Do not switch off the power to the recorder and do not close the cap.
* Periodically, there is an automatic discharge of ink to prevent drying-up.

Leave the recording paper in place in the recorder.

If it is not possible to keep the power switched on, make sure that the cap is closed.

In this case, follow Step 4 and Step 5 of 'Recording head installation' to lower the recording
paper holder and hold-down plate spring and tighten the cap.

Note 2: At the start of use of a recording head

If you are starting to use a new recording head or if the recorder has been left unused for a long time,
always wipe the head's nozzle surface lightly with the accessory cloth and check that the 4 colors black,
blue, red and yellow ooze out properly into the cloth. (See Section 5.2.) Also, after normal recording
is possible. See Section 6.3 for the way of printing out a test pattern.
When the working environment is 15°C or less, perform print-out of "test pattern" after period of
several minutes has elapsed since the recording head was mounted. (The recording head has a built-in
heater.)

°C).

Note 3: Handling recording heads

•Do not knock or shake recording heads as this can cause faults.

• The inks are not harmful but they are very difficult to remove if they adhere to the skin or to clothes,
so handle heads carefully in order to avoid staining. Also, do not disassemble them.

• If, by accident, it happens that ink gets into your eyes, wash thoroughly with water as an emergency
measure and then immediately consult a specialist doctor.

• This product is intended to be used where are not dusty.

• Be sure to start to use the product soon after opening package. (Be sure to finish using this within 1
year after opening)

Note 4: Storage of recording heads

• When they are delivered, recording heads are in aluminium packs.

If you are not going to use a head straight-away, leave it sealed and store it in a cool, dark place with

an average temperature of 5 to 30°C.

• Storage period: 1year and half after purchased.

5 - 7INP-TN4PHAV-E

Note 5: Shipping of recording head

• Do not ship the unit recording head after the aluminum pack was opened up.
If it is necessary to ship the unit recording head under avoidable circumstances, be sure to close the
cap, and ship it as contained in a boxboard in the state where vibration and impact are eased using
cushioning materials.

• Always close the cap if you are transporting a head while it is still installed in the recorder main unit.

Note 6: If the ink is not sprayed.

(1) Hold the recording head with turning the nozzle surface down-

ward and push the side strong till spilling two drops.

(2) Absorb the standing ink on the nozzle surface with the cloth at-

tached.

(3) Hold the cloth to the nozzle surface again to find all colors flowed

onto cloth.
* When working environment is 15°C or less, perform print-out

of "record" or "test pattern" after a period or several minutes
has elapsed since the recording head was mounted. (The re­cording head has a built-in heater.)

Reference: Ink consumption

This varies depending on the conditions of use but with a chart speed of 25mm/h and recording of
constant input, the amount of consumption is as follows.

About 1 year..............................in the case of 1, 2, 3 continuous records

About 6 months.........................in the case of 6 continuous records

About 3 months.........................in the case of 12 continuous records

7.3 Pass code setting

Explanation

If the pass code is set to a value other than 0, it is necessary to enter the correct pass code before
changing parameter setting pass code. A numerical value is specified on the screen by means of the

and keys and is input by the ENT key. If this value is the same as the previously set pass
code, there is a move to a display of the next parameter.
If the pass code is incorrectly specified, the keys are locked as follows.
Preset pass code < 5000

Only the list display is given and it is not possible to change parameter settings.

Preset pass code ≥ 5000

The list display is given, but list print-out is inhibited.
Furthermore, RECORD , LIST , and FEED keys on the front panel are locked.
At the time of shipment, the pass code is set to 0 and the key lock is released.
If the pass code is 0, the pass code display is skipped.

7.4 Setting the chart speed (main chart speed/sub-chart speed)

Explanation

• Main chart speed: This is the procedure for setting the chart speed in normal operation.
The setting range is 5 to 1500mm/h. (Can be set in 1mm/h steps.)

• If the case of a continuous recording type, if the chart speed is too fast, the result is dashed

line recording instead of continuous recording. (As a general criterion, 300mm/h or more)

• Please note that the following digital print-outs are not possible if the chart speed of continuous

recording type is 301mm/h or more, that of dot recording type is 51mm/h or more.
'Periodic print-out' 'Scale print-out' 'Message print-out' 'Alarm print-out' 'Parameter print-out' 'Ink
Out print-out'.
However, a 'Scale print-out' 'Message print-out' can be made manually.
See Section 7.11.

• The sample time in continuous recording varies depending on the chart speed

Sample time =

Chart speed (mm/h)

(But not faster than 3 seconds.)

Example:

Chart speed (mm/h) 10 20 25 50 100 150
Sample time 45 Repeated 22, 23 20 9 Repeated 4, 5 3

• Sample time of intermittent recording type is fixed to 30 seconds.

(1) Logging recording (logging)

•In this case, there is no analog trend recording but a record of data (the time channel Nos., measured
values, units) is produced at specified intervals of time (10 to 60 minutes can be specified.)

• If there is detection or clearing of an alarm during logging print-out, this is printed on the right-hand
side of the recording paper. (Example of print-out: Section 11.9)

(2) Periodic print-out

• The following items are printed out at set intervals in depending on chart speed.
Time line, time, chart speed, channel Nos., measured values, engineering units.

• This print-out is effected alternately with scale print-outs.

• It is not effected if the periodic print-out is set to "OFF".

(3) Scale print-out

• Scale lines, digits, unit and Tag Nos. are printed out at set intervals.

•This print-out is effected alternately with periodic print-outs.

• It is not effected if the scale print-out is set to "OFF".

• If both scale print-out and periodic print-out are set to "ON", the print-outs are effected alternately at
set intervals.

Periodic print-out and scale print-out time intervals sub heading

The time intervals of print-outs vary depending on the chart speed.

1. In the case of continuous recording

Chart speed (mm/h) 5 to 9 10 to 19 20 to 39 40 to 79 80 to 159 160 to 239 240 to 320
Print-out time interval 12 h 8 h 4 h 2 h 1 h 30 min 20 min

Chart speed (mm/h) 321 to 480
Print-out time interval 15 min 10 min

When the chart speed exceeds 301mm/h, only the time line is recorded.
Periodic print-out and scale print-out are not effected.

2. In the case of intermittent recording type
Chart speed (mm/h) 5 to 9 10 to 19 20 to 39 40 to 79 80 to 159 160 to 239 240 to 320

Print-out time interval 12 h 8 h 4 h 2 h 1 h 30 min 20 min

Chart speed (mm/h) 321 to 480
Print-out time interval 15 min 10 min

481 to 1500

481 to 1500

When the chart speed exceeds 51mm/h, only the time line is recorded.
Periodic print-out and scale print-out are not effected.
Note: If the time for a periodic print-out or scale print-out arrives while data printing or other list

printing is in progress, the periodic print-out or scale print-out is not made.
If data print-out is started while a periodic print-out or scale print-out is in progress, the
periodic print-out or scale print-out is halted partway through.

7 - 9INP-TN4PHAV-E

(4) Auto-range recording (auto-range)

If input outside the record range occurs, recording is effected with the record range automatically changed.
The record range after a change goes 50% of the span to the plus side or the minus side. Note that the
recording span does not change. (Made effective with an ON setting.)

Example: With a 0 to 100°C record range (recording span 100°C)

• If input goes beyond the range in the positive direction, there is a change to 50 to 150°C.

• If input goes outside the range in the negative direction, there is a change to -50 to +50°C.

Note 1: A change in the range is only effected once in a given direction.

Once a range has changed in the positive direction, it does not change again even if the record
range is exceeded again.

Note 2: If the record range changes because it has been exceeded in the positive direction and then input

below the new range in the negative direction there is a return to the original range. (The

reverse also applies.)
Note 3: A mark is printed in black at the right-hand edge of the recording paper when the range changes.
Note 4: There is a record range MAX. value and MIN. value for each type of input.

Consequently, if a change means that a range is going to go beyond the MAX. value or MIN.

value for the record range of the type of input in question, the MAX. value or MIN. value

imposes a limit.

Example: For a K thermocouple 0 to 1000°C record range

• If over-range occurs: change to 400 to 1400°C

• If under-range occurs: change to -230 to 770°C

Note 5:

Auto-range recording cannot be specified simultaneously with zoom recording or zone recording.

(5) Enlarged/reduced recording (zoom)

Within the record range (record range) for each channel, there are three recording scales. This makes it
possible to have an enlarged record in one portion and a reduced record in the other portion.
Example: With a 0 to 100°C record range:

Suppose you want to enlarge 40 to 60°C record in a 10 to 90% range.
(The 0 to 10% range becomes a reduced record of 0 to 60°C, and the 90 to 100% range becomes
a reduced record of 60 to 100°C)

Boundary value 1 = 40°C
Chart position = 10%

Note 1: Do not set the normal recording 0% value at the 100% recording position or the normal record-

ing 100% value at the 0% recording position.

If you do, proper operation becomes impossible.

7 - 10 INP-TN4PHAV-E

Note 2: If zoom recording is specified, scale print-out digits are printed only for the 4 points 0% and

100% of the record range, and the boundary value 1 and the boundary value 2. (Boundary value
scale digits are printed only if the record position is 15 to 85% and when the difference between
boundary value 1 and boundary value 2 is less than 7%, only the small chart position is printed.)

Example: With a record range 0 to 500°C, the boundary value 1 of 200°C, chart position of 30%,

and the boundary value 2 of 300°C, chart position of 70%.

0.0 200.0 300.0 500.0

Note 3:

(0%) (30%)

(70%)

Zoom recording cannot be specified simultaneously with auto-range recording or zone recording

(100%)

(6) Zone recording (zone)

• The recording width is 180mm and overlap of the records of different channels is prevented by the
provision of recording zones for the various channels.

• Any zone can carry the record of any channel.

• The number of divisions is up to a maximum of 4 zones.

7.7 Setting record ranges

Explanation

An individual record range is set for each channel. 'Record range' means the 0% and 100% position
scale on recording paper. If DC voltage input scaling is set and used, set the record range after setting
scaling. If scaling is set, the decimal point position is the same one as set by the engineering value.

7.16 Clearing the ink monitor

Explanation

This is a function or warning and detection of ink dry-up.
Normally, this operation is not required but always set to "Clear" when you replace the recording
head with a new one. If you forget to make the setting "Clear", operation continues from the
previous count value, and so the ink dry-up warning-detection count is actuated and there is a con­stant ink dry-up warning-detection print-out.
Note: If you set to "Clear" other than times of replacement with new parts, there will be no "Ink

empty" display when low level is reached.

Maintenance Items

Recording head
replacement

Inspection of the
recording head

Recording paper
replacement

Procedure

The recording head is a consumable part.
If there is no more ink, replace the head with a new one.
Ink consumption varies depending on the contents of records, but writing for about
6 months is possible for 6 points continuous recording at a recording paper speed of
25mm/h.
If the ink dry-up warning display "Ink end" appears in the display section, refer to
'5.2 Recording head installation' and replace the recording head with a new head.
To get spares, quote the following type.
Recording head type: PHZH1002
Recording is possible for a little while after the warning display "Ink empty"
appears.
(There is about 10% of the total amount of ink remaining)

In normal conditions, there is no need for preventive maintenance of the recording
head.
However, in a high-temperature or very dusty environment, periodically wiping the
nozzle surface prevents accumulation of dust and ink and so prevents nozzle
blockage that is liable to be caused by such accumulation.
Use the accessory 'ink absorption cloth' for wiping the nozzle surface.

If a recording head is left unused for a long time without using the cap, ink may
not be ooze out even if cloth is brought against the nozzle surface of the head. In
this case, moisten the ink absorbent cloth with water, press it lightly against the
nozzle surface for several seconds and then gently wipe the nozzle surface.

In continuous operation at a paper feed speed of 25mm/h, the recording paper lasts
about 31 days.
When there is only a small amount of recording paper left, red characters are
printed on the right-hand edge of the paper. When this happens, refer to Section 5.1
and replace the recording paper.
When there is no more recording paper, recording operations stop and 'Chart end' is
displayed in the display section.
To get supplementary paper, quote the following type.
Recording paper type: PEX00BL1-1000B

Replacing the fuse

If the fuse blows, turn the power supply off
and then investigate the cause and replace.
You will see the fuse on lower left when the
front flap is opened.
Use a straight blade screwdriver to turn the
fuse holder anticlockwise and detach it.
Replace the provided tube type fuse.

nels or perform OR operation.

Relay contact capacity: 240V AC, 3A (resistive load),

30V DC, 3A (resistive load)

(2) External control (DI): The following functions can be performed in response to external con-

tact signals:

•Recording operation start/stop (DI 1):
Contact signals can start/stop recording operations. Recording starts when contact is closed
and stops when contact is open.
Message print is started when DI1 is specified. It is also started during recording when the
contact is closed.

• 2-stage change of chart speed (DI 2):
Contact signals can effect a change from normal recording paper feed speed to remote mode
chart speed. Closing the contact gives remote mode chart speed.
Opening the contact gives normal chart speed.
But, message printed when DI2 has been specified. During recording, message print is
started when the contact is closed.

• Instantaneous value print-out (DI 3)
Instantaneous value lists (dates, times, channel Nos., measured values, units) are printed out
in response to contact signals. Print-out starts when the contact is closed and stops when the
contact is opened.
But, latch is OFF when alarm latch function is ON. It is also OFF when the contact is
closed.

Note: As the external control unit is not insulated, use it with insertion of an external relay.
