8.1.14 Input Bias(Error correction)
This function is for error correction from input (thermocouple, RTD, voltage, current) not from this
recorder.
When temperature sensor cannot be installed near measured subject, there may be the
temperature deviation between temperature sensor area and measured subject area. This
function calculates and corrects this errors. Several kinds of temperature sensor has specified
grade. High accuracy type is high price and ordinary product is generally used. To correct input
by measuring error from each helps more accurate temperature measurement.
For using this error correction function, you should accurately measure the deviation from input
part , at first. If this deviation is not correct, the error may be higher.
Set range: -9999 to 9999 ↔ -999.9 to 999.9 ↔ -99.99 to 99.99 ↔ -9.999 to 9.999
↔ -0.9999 to 0.9999 (Depending on the set scale point, range is different.)
Factory default: 0.0
In case actual temperature is 80℃ but display temprature from recorder is 78℃, set Input
Bias(Error correction) as ‘2’ and display temperature is 80℃.

Ethernet communication Over CAT5E, cable max. length: 100m
USB Device communication Single cable built-in ferrite core within 1.5m
USB Device communication may cause recognition error by external noise and environment
during connecting PC. If there is error, please re-connect this.
Please use USB Device as for setting.
During communication, if you chaging the communication settings, it may cause communication
error.
RS485 communication port of KRN100 is connected for 3 A, B, SG terminals.
SG terminal is connectable with shield or SG of converter, and you do not need to connect SG
terminal.
To remove noise during RS485 communication, use shield cable. There are three methods for
shield processing.
Connects shield cable only for
1
SG terminal of communication
module.
Connects shield for both SG
terminal of communication
2
module and the grounding of
computer.
Connects shield for one of SG
terminal of communication
3
module or the grounding of
computer.
When electric potential occurs between computer and
recorder grounded, connect shield cable for SG terminal of
recorder to minimize noise effect not to flow current on
shield cable. (It is used generally.)
When electric optional does not occur between computer
and recorder grounded, it is effective to minimize noise
influence.
It can minimize noise effect in case of connecting non-
polarity condenser in series.
It is recommended to use SCM-US 48I(USB/RS485 converter) or SCM-38I(RS232C/RS485
converter) for RS485 communication between PC and KRN100.
If using the non-grounded converter between FG and SG, it may cause damage to KRN100 and
communication error by electric potential of between ground during long-distance communication.
For using terminating resistance, turn ON only terminal resistance of recoder on end of
connected communication line (Enables to set using terminating resistance in communication set
function), and also turn ON terminal resistance of connected communication to PC.
Designate communication address.
The designated communication address is able to apply to RS485, USB Device, also Ethernet
communication. However, duplicated communication address setting in same communication
line does not allow.
