7. Operation

[Before running]

Before running the instrument, check the mounting and wiring carefully, referring to “4. Mounting to the control panel” (p.12) and “5. Wiring” (p.14). Check whether settings are applicable for the users’ conditions, referring to “6 Settings” (p.19).

7.1 Running the LMD-100

(1) Turn the power supply to the LMD-100 and connected controllers ON.

Turn the power supply to the LMD-100 and connected controllers ON. For 5 seconds after the power is turned on, the PV display indicates [ ].

After that, the LMD-100 reads PV, SV and alarm status of the connected controllers. If automatic switching is selected, the channel number is automatically switched every 2 seconds, indicating PV, SV and alarm status.

(2) Input set values of the LMD-100.

Input each set value of the LMD-100, referring to “6. Settings” (p.19).

(3) Turn the load circuit power of the connected controllers ON.

Turn the load circuit power of the connected controllers ON. Control action starts so as to keep the control target at the SV.

7.2 Preparation for data logging

7.2.1 CF cards

Notice

For data logging, please use the recommended CF card. When any other CF cards (commercially available) are used, turn the power off after data logging has stopped. If power is turned off without data logging being stopped, the data might be lost or the CF card may not be able to be used.

Recommended CF cards: CF card included and also sold separately by Shinko Technos

Co., Ltd. Type I (Thickness 3.3mm), Maximum capacity 2GB

Format : FAT16 Writing method : Writing in a new file (Opens a new file every time logging

starts, and saves data in it.)

CF card memory usage: In the case of 2 controller units being connected, and when

logging all items with a logging cycle of 5 seconds, 1.7 to 2.0MB

of the CF card can be used every 24 hours.

7.2.2 Data reliability when power failure occurs during data logging

The set data of the LMD-100 is backed up in the non-volatile IC memory. The time it takes between detecting power failure and turning the power to the LMD-100 OFF is approx. 260ms for 85V AC and 4 seconds for 264V AC. For the recommended CF card, writing time is 200ms and closing process time is 40ms. Thus total time is 240ms. Writing and closing of the CF card can be finished within

Shinko instruments’ power failure process time. Therefore data reliability can be maintained. If any other CF cards (commercially available) are used, the data reliability is not guaranteed.

7.3 CF card insertion

(1) Insert the CF card with the rim toward you. See (Fig. 7.3-1).

The groove width of the top and bottom of the card differ so that the CF card will be inserted correctly. However, do not insert the card forcibly in the wrong direction. After insertion, the card should protrude approx. 5mm from the front of the instrument with the CF card ejection button also protruding. See (Fig. 7.3-2).

(2) Shift the LOCK switch to LOCK position. See (Fig. 7.3-2).

(Fig. 7.3-1) (Fig. 7.3-2)

7.4 CF card ejection

Caution

• Make sure not to press the card ejection button too hard, as this may cause the CF card to fall to the ground.

• Be sure to pull the CF card out by pressing the CF card ejection button.

• If a defective CF card is inserted, the reset function to prevent malfunction is initiated,

and the instrument reverts to the warm-up status.

(1) Shift the LOCK switch to UNLOCK. See (Fig. 7.4-1). (2) To eject the CF card, press the CF card ejection button. See (Fig. 7.4-1).

7.5 How to start data logging

7.5.1 Data logging start

There are 2 ways to start data logging. One is with the key, and the other is using the external operation input.

Data logging start with the key

Press the key. Data logging starts under conditions which have been set during Data logging condition setting mode. The LOG indicator is lit during data logging, and flashes while writing to the CF card.

Data logging start using the external operation input

Connect External operation input LOG terminals 19 and 20 (Contact from Open to Closed). Data logging starts under conditions which have been set during Data logging condition setting mode. The LOG indicator is lit during data logging, and flashes while writing to the CF card.

7.5.2 Logging auto-start function

If “Effective” is selected during “Logging auto-start selection” in Data logging condition setting mode (p.23), Logging auto-start function will initiate after power-on. Logging automatically starts between Auto-start start and end time.

If Logging auto-start start and end time are the same, logging continues until power-off or until CF card capacity is exceeded. After power is restored, Auto-start function is enabled if logging is within the selected time between Auto-start start and end time, and logging is performed. During logging, usual Logging start/stop can be performed. During logging, if external operation input LOG terminals 19 and 20 are connected (Contact from Open to Closed), logging will continue even if the logging end time has expired. Even within the data logging time, logging stops by disconnecting LOG terminals 19 and 20 (Contact from Closed to Open).

7.5.3 CF card file

Every time the LMD-100 starts data logging, LMD-100 writes the data in a new file. When logging data reaches 65,000 lines, the file is closed and a new file is opened for data writing, considering editing on spreadsheet applications. The file is named as shown below.

yymmdd_hhmmss.CSV yy : Lower 2 digits of the year (2006: 06)

mm : Month (January: 01) dd : Day (the 1st : 01) hh : Hour (8 a.m.: 08, 8 p.m.: 20) mm : Minute ss : Second

For example, if data logging is started at 8:30 a.m. on January 1st, 2006, the file will be named as “060101_083000.CSV”.

7.5.4 File limits

A maximum of 170 files can be saved in the CF card. If the number of files exceeds 170, an error message (Excess CF card memory capacity) appears on the PV display regardless of the remaining memory capacity in the CF card.

7.5.5 Data logging cycle

If logging time of data (depending on number of connected units, and Data logging items) exceeds the logging cycle, previous data will be saved. (e.g.) If the following are selected:

Number of connected units: 8 Data logging items: 5 (PV, SV, OUT1 MV, OUT2 MV, controller status)

Data logging cycle: 1sec Controller response time: Approx. 50ms per item 50ms x 5 (items)=250ms 250ms x 8 (units)= Approx. 2000ms If writing time to CF card is 500ms: Thus total response time: 2000ms+500ms=2500ms (2.5sec) As Data logging cycle is 1sec, the previous data will be saved 2 or 3 times.

7.5.6 Power failure during data logging

If power failure occurs during data logging, data is automatically saved in the file. After the power is restored, data logging is stopped. However, if external operation input LOG terminals 19 and 20 are connected (Contact Closed), data logging automatically resumes, and writes the data in a new file. If momentary power failure occurs while writing to the CF card, one batch of logging data might be lost.

7.6 How to stop data logging

7.6.1 Data logging stop

There are 2 ways to stop data logging. One is with the key, and the other is using the external operation input.

To stop logging with the key

Press the key for approx. 1 second. The LOG indicator goes off, and logging stops.

To stop logging using the external operation input

Disconnect LOG terminals 19 and 20 (Contact from Closed to Open).

The LOG indicator goes off, and logging stops.

7.6.2 External operation priority

If “External operation input (LOG) has priority” is selected from “External operation priority selection” in the Data logging condition setting mode, and when LOG terminals 19 and 20 are connected (Contact Closed), data logging cannot be stopped by the

key.

However, if LOG terminals 19 and 20 are disconnected (Contact Open), logging by the

key can be started or stopped.

7.7 How to edit CF card data on the personal computer

To edit the CF card data on the PC, the CF card Reader/Writer is required. (1) Insert the CF card into the CF card Reader/Writer. (2) Select the data in the CF card.

The following shows an example using Windows XP. Select the “Removable Disk” and double-click on the data in the CF card. (Fig. 7.7-1) Microsoft EXCEL will start, and the file will be opened.

7.10 Set value memory function

Up to 6 groups of SV for the connected controllers can be saved. If the key is pressed after selecting Set value memory number in Main setting mode, SVs in the selected memory number are sent to the connected controllers. (See p.38 for registering Set value memory number.) [When a lot of controllers are connected, operations at the next setting mode (SV setting) cannot be performed until all connected controllers SV changes are completed.]

If set values are changed from the controller side

If set values are changed from the controller side, the LMD-100 reads and saves the sending items the LMD-100 already has: Sending items of the LMD-100: SV, Alarm 1 value, OUT1 proportional band, OUT2

proportional band, Integral time, Derivative time, ARW, OUT1 proportional cycle, OUT2 proportional cycle,

Manual reset, Set value lock, AT/Auto-reset However, even if SV is changed from the controller side, the SV of the Set value memory number cannot be changed. To change SV of the Set value memory number, set it in the “SV setting” mode.

How to register the Set value memory number

If settings are changed from the LMD-100, and if the controllers are in setting mode, the PV display of the LMD-100 indicates as above for approx 2 seconds, and the LMD-100 reverts to the PV/SV display mode without updating set values. At this time, the LMD-100 reads all set values of the controllers, sets them on the LMD-100 to make values even.

When changing settings from the controller

If settings are changed from the controller, and if the LMD-100 is in setting mode, the PV display of the LMD-100 indicates as above, and the LMD-100 reverts to the PV/SV display mode after updating set values. At this time, the LMD-100 reads all set values of the controllers, sets them on the LMD-100 to make values even. If the controller is in setting mode even after all values are read, the LMD-100 reads the changed values. If the controller completes the setting mode, the LMD-100 releases the error indication.

External memory device

Media : Recommended CF cards: CF card included and also sold separately

by Shinko Techos Co., Ltd. Type I (thickness 3.3mm)

Maximum capacity: 2GB Format : FAT16 (For commercially available CF card, it may be FAT32) Writing method : Writing in a new file (Opens a new file every time logging starts,

and saves in it)

CF card memory usage: In the case of 2 controller units being connected, and

when logging all items with a logging cycle of 5 seconds, 1.7 to

2.0MB of the CF card can be used every 24 hours.

Others : If logging data reaches 65,000 lines, the file is closed and saves

the data in a new file.

Note : If a defective CF card is inserted, the reset function to prevent

malfunction is initiated, and the instrument reverts to warm-up status. Number of files: Max. 170 If the number of files exceeds 170, an error message is indicated regardless of CF card remaining memory capacity.

Console, logging function

Console : Set values can be read and set to the controllers by connecting a

maximum of 16 units of controllers in Serial communication (RS-485). The number indicated on the CH display is an instrument number set to the controllers connected. The instrument number is set from 1 (one) in numerical order. If an error occurs during communication with the controller, the PV display indicates the error message ( ) and the “CNTL COM ERR” (Controller communication error) indicator lights if the error occurred channel is indicated. The error message ( ) is maintained even if communication is recovered until it is released by pressing the (Mode) key. If the error message is released, all set values are read.

Logging : The LMD-100 constantly reads data from the connected controller,

and writes it on the CF card every logging cycle. If the LMD-100 cannot save data due to communication failure, there will be no data on the CF card. If logging time of data (depending on number of connected units, and data logging items) exceeds the logging cycle, the previous data will be saved.

Controller : Controller models are classified as shown below. (Default: DCL-33A)

0: DCL-33A 1: JCS-33A, JCR-33A, JCD-33A, JCM-33A 2: NCL-13A 3: JCL-33A 4: ACS-13A

Logging cycle : 1sec, 2sec, 5sec, 10sec, 15sec, 20sec, 30sec, 1min, 2min, 5min,

10min, 20min, 30min, 60min (Default: 10sec)

Logging Start/Stop can be switched using External contact.

LOG terminals 19 and 20 are disconnected (Contact from Closed to Open): Logging Stop LOG terminals 19 and 20 are connected (Contact from Open to Closed): Logging Start Circuit current when closed: 6mA

If power failure occurs during logging, logging stops when power is restored. If power failure occurs while the External contact is closed, logging automatically starts and the data is saved in a new file. If priority is given to the external operation, logging cannot be stopped by front key operation while external contact is closed. However, while external contact is open, logging Start/Stop by front key is possible.

Front key Lock/Unlock using External contact

Front key LOCK/UNLOCK can be set using external contact.

KEY LOCK terminals 18 and 20 are disconnected (Contact from Closed to Open): Front key

“UNLOCK”

KEY LOCK terminals18 and 20 are connected (Contact from Open to Closed): Front key

“LOCK”

Circuit current when contact is closed: 6mA

If front key “LOCK” is selected, keys which are related to the setting mode cannot be operated (The DISP key and CH key are operable). If front key “LOCK” is selected during setting mode, keys can be operated until the setting mode ends.

ERR (error) output

If errors occur during data logging, if the CF card is defective, when the LMD-100 battery runs down, or if the key is pressed without setting time, ERR output is turned ON. Action: ON/OFF action Output: Relay contact, 1a

Control capacity, 3A 250V AC (resistive load) Electric life: 100,000 cycles

Logging auto-start function

If Logging auto-start “Effective” is selected during Logging auto-start selection (p.23), auto-start start and end time can be set, and logging automatically performs within the selected time after power-on. If logging auto-start start and end time are the same, logging continues until power-off or until CF card capacity is exceeded. After power is restored, Auto-start function is enabled if logging is within the selected time between Auto-start start and end time, and logging is performed. During logging, usual Logging start/stop can be performed. During logging, if external operation input LOG terminals 19 and 20 are connected (Contact from Open to Closed), logging will continue even if the logging end time has expired. Even within the data logging time, logging stops by disconnecting LOG terminals 19 and 20 (Contact from Closed to Open).

Set value memory function

Up to 6 groups of SV for the connected controllers can be saved. If the key is pressed after selecting Set value memory number in Main setting mode, SVs in the selected memory number are sent to the connected controllers. [When a lot of controllers are connected, operations at the next setting mode (SV setting) cannot be performed until all connected controllers SV changes are completed.] If set values are changed from the controller side, the LMD-100 reads and saves the sending items the LMD-100 already has: Sending items of the LMD-100: SV, Alarm 1 value, OUT1 proportional band, OUT2

proportional band, Integral time, Derivative time, ARW, OUT1 proportional cycle, OUT2 proportional cycle,

Broadcast setting function

CF card LOCK switch

This switch prevents the CF card being taken out during data logging. By setting the LOCK switch to LOCK position, data logging can be performed. By setting the LOCK switch to UNLOCK position, data logging cannot be performed. If the LOCK switch is set to UNLOCK during logging, logging stops immediately.

This switch also functions as a Logging indicator. The red LED lights during logging,

and flashes while accessing the CF card.
