Per Reading This Instruction Manual

Since various names on the F395 are determined by assuming the X-axis sensor

displacement input, matters relating to the X-axis input may be expressed as

displacement - depending on the description in this instruction manual.

1. Outline of the F395

Sampling of waveform variation with displacement for going and return, detection of points in a waveform such as an inflection point, and judgment of differences between going and return at a given point (Hysteresis / Hysteresis 2 function);

1-1. What the F395 Can Do:

1.Outline of the F395

1-2. Waveform Drawing Procedures

The F395 can provide waveform displays of signals from a strain gauge type sensor and

displacement sensor. The waveform display procedures are as follows.

(See "7-4. X/Y-axis Setting by Operation Mode and Input CH" P41.):

1. Connect a strain gauge type sensor (and displacement sensor) with the F395.

(See "4-1-1. Analog Input / Output Connection" P21.)

2. Perform calibration. (See "5. Methods of Calibration" P31.)

3. Set each parameter for waveform display.

(See "9. Method of Starting Measurement" P43, and "16-2-9. Level Axis Select /

Waveform Start Level / Waveform Termination Level / Hold Start Level" P113.)

4. Check to see if a waveform is displayed for the set conditions.

1-3. Multi-Hold Procedures

In the Multi-Hold mode, necessary points are detected in the displayed waveform to

make a judgment such as a High/Low Limit Comparison. Up to 32 channels of Hold

types, High and Low Limits, etc., can be stored, which can be switched by external

signals. The procedures for using the Multi-Hold function are as follows:

1. Check to see if a waveform is displayed in accordance with the waveform drawing

procedures. (See "1-2. Waveform Drawing Procedures" P3.)

2. Select a hold function so that necessary points in the waveform can be held. (See "10-

3. Hold Functions" P48.)

3. Carry out Multi-Hold settings. (See "16-2. Each Setting Item" P103.)

4. Select the channel number(s) you want to control externally. (See "4-3. Control

Connector Connection" P25.)

5. Input T/H and H/M signals in accordance with the selected hold function, and check to

see if operation is performed as set. (See "10-3. Hold Functions" P48.)

1-4. Hysteresis Procedures

In the Hysteresis mode, go and return waveform variations with displacement are

sampled, and necessary points in the displayed waveforms are detected to perform

controls such as a High/Low Limit Comparison.

This function is almost the same as the Multi-Hold function except for the return

waveform sampling function by hysteresis interval (See "16-2-14. Hysteresis Interval"

P119.), displacement on the X-axis, and the maximum sampling rate of 2kHz.

1. Check to see if a waveform is displayed in accordance with the waveform drawing procedures. (See "1-2. Waveform Drawing Procedures" P3.)

2. Select a hold function such that necessary points in the waveform can be held. (See "10-3. Hold Functions" P48.)

3. Carry out Hysteresis settings. (See "11-2. Setting and Operating Method" P64.)

4. Select the channel number(s) you want to control externally. (See "4-3. Control Connector Connection" P25.)

1.Outline of the F395

5. Input T/H and H/M signals in accordance with the selected hold function, and check to see if operation is performed as set. (See "10-3. Hold Functions" P48.)

1-5. Hysteresis 2 Procedures

The Hysteresis 2 mode is the same as the Hysteresis mode except for the hold operation.

At the point of displacement where a pulse is input, High/Low Limit Comparison of the

go measured value, and High/Low Limit Comparison of the difference between the go

and return measured values are performed.

1. Check to see if a waveform is displayed in accordance with the waveform drawing procedures. (See "1-2. Waveform Drawing Procedures" P3.)

2. Carry out Hysteresis 2 settings. (See "12-2. Setting and Operating Method" P65.)

3. Select the channel number(s) you want to control externally. (See "4-3. Control Connector Connection" P25.)

4. Provide a load to the strain gauge type sensor / displacement sensor, input START and HOLD 1 ~ 3 signals (See "4-3. Control Connector Connection" P25.), and check to see if operation is performed as set.

1.Outline of the F395

1-6. Waveform Comparison /

Waveform and Displacement Comparison Procedures

In the Waveform Comparison / Waveform and Displacement Comparison mode,

waveform variations with time / displacement are sampled, and a High/Low Limit

Comparison is performed based on the sampled waveform.

A sequential comparison can be performed with respect to dynamic waveform

variations.

The procedures for performing a Waveform Comparison / Waveform and Displacement

Comparison are as follows:

1. Check to see if a waveform is displayed in accordance with the waveform drawing procedures. (See "1-2. Waveform Drawing Procedures" P3.)

2. Carry out Waveform Comparison / Waveform and Displacement Comparison settings. (See "13-2. Setting and Operating Method" P68.)

3. Select the channel number(s) you want to control externally. (See "4-3. Control Connector Connection" P25.)

4. Provide a load to the strain gauge type sensor (displacement sensor), input START and other signals, and check to see if operation is performed as set.

5. Methods of Calibration

5-1. What is Calibration?

Operation of matching the F395 and sensor is called "Calibration".

For the F395, there are two methods of calibration as follows:

Equivalent input calibration

By this method, calibration is performed by simply inputting the rated output value (mV/

V, V, mA) of the sensor and the indicated value by keypad without using an Actual Load.

Calibration can easily be performed even if an actual load is not prepared.

Actual load calibration

By this method, calibration is performed by giving an actual load (displacement) to the

sensor and inputting the actual load (displacement) by keypad. Accurate calibration with

few errors can be performed.

5-2. CH1 Input Calibration and CH2 Input Calibration

Perform calibration with respect to each of analog input CH1 and CH2. CH2 may be set

for measuring the X-axis (displacement input). (The axis in current use is displayed in

the Axis setting under CH2 Input Calibration.)

6-1. Digital Filter

A/D-converted data is moving-averaged to reduce unsteadiness of indicated values by

this function. The number of times of moving average can be selected from the

following. With an increasing number of times of moving average, the display stabilizes

but the response becomes slow.

Setting item: None / 2’ / 4’ / 8’ / 16 ’/ 32’

6-2. Analog Filter

This is a low-pass filter to cancel unnecessary noise components by filtering input

signals from the sensor. The cutoff frequency of the low-pass filter can be selected from

the following. With increasing cutoff frequency, the response becomes fast but noise

components may be displayed in a waveform.

Setting item: 10Hz / 50Hz / 200Hz / 600Hz

6-3. Digital Offset

The digital reference point (zero point of indicated values) is offset by this function. The

value set here is subtracted from the actual indicated value (added if the sign is negative)

for display.

(Displayed indicated value) = (Actual indicated value) - (Digital offset set value)

Setting range: -9999 ~ +9999 (Not including the decimal point.)

6.Settings and Operations Relating to Indicated Values

Digital Zero can be operated only when the Set Value Protection setting is either "CAL. Protect" or "All Protect," or the LOCK switch on the rear panel is ON. Also, the displacement input value cannot be zeroed by the above methods. It is automatically zeroed when sampling starts if the Level Axis Select setting (See "16-2-9. Level Axis Select / Waveform Start Level / Waveform Termination Level / Hold Start Level" P113.) is "Y-axis" in the Hysteresis / Hysteresis 2 / Waveform and Displacement Comparison mode with the above condition met. (See "13-5. Waveform and Displacement Comparison Mode" P74.)

6-4. Digital Zero

Indicated values are zeroed forcedly by this function. There are two methods as follows:

1. Press the DZ key on the main screen.

2. Short-circuit D/Z and COM of the control connector.

7.Measurement Operation Functional Settings

7-1. Operation Mode

Set the Operation Mode according to the working conditions from the following.

Setting item: Multi-Hold / Wave Comp. / Hysteresis / Wave&Displace / Hysteresis2

When the mode is changed to Hysteresis / Waveform and Displacement Comparison /

Hysteresis 2, if the sampling rate has been set at 4kHz, the sampling rate is automatically

changed to 2kHz. At the same time, the buzzer beeps.

7-2. Sampling Rate

Select the sensor signal reading speed from the following.

Setting item: 4 kHz / 2 kHz / 1 kHz / 500 Hz / 200 Hz / 100 Hz

(4kHz cannot be set in the Hysteresis / Waveform and Displacement Comparison /

Hysteresis 2 mode.)

The relationship between the sampling rate (frequency) and reading speed is as follows:

Sampling rate Reading speed

4kHz 4000 times/sec.

2kHz 2000 times/sec.

1kHz 1000 times/sec.

500Hz 500 times/sec.

200Hz 200 times/sec.

100Hz 100 times/sec.

7.Measurement Operation Functional Settings

About advance waveform display

When the operation mode is Multi-Hold or Waveform Comparison, a waveform is displayed gradually without waiting for completion of takingin of the waveform by setting the sampling rate to 100Hz or 200Hz.

The display rate changes according to the X-axis scaling. This function simply handles waveform data, and hold points are displayed after measurement. The previous waveform is dismissed when the next measurement starts. (The waveform can be read.) Advance display is not carried out unless the main screen is displayed when a measurement starts.

7-3. Sampling Reset

If CH1/CH2 input calibration, Operation Mode, or PUI setting (optionally mounted) is

changed, the F395 stops sampling, and moves to a sampling waiting condition.

At this time, the results of hold / comparison are also reset.

7-4. X/Y-axis Setting by Operation Mode and Input CH

Up to 9 results of measurement can be confirmed on the hold point display screen. Since

the display is always updated every time a measurement is made in order to display the

latest results of measurement, use the display by switching from the graph screen

according to the measuring conditions.

9. Method of Starting Measurement

The following conditions should be met for the F395 to display input signals from the

strain gauge sensor as a waveform on the screen and start measurement. (For details of

input and output signals, see "4-3-2. Input and Output Signals" P25.)

i. The START signal turns from ON to OFF.

ii. The input signal crosses over the Waveform Start Level.

(Only "i." when the signal "Capture start by external signal" is ON.)

Waveform drawing ends when the STOP signal turns ON, or when 2048-point sampling

is exceeded, or when the input signal crosses over the Waveform Termination Level with

the signal "Waveform termination level operation" ON.

The relationship between the input signal, START / STOP signal, and waveform drawing

(sampling) is as shown in Example 1 ~ 5 below.

Example 1

* If a HI or LO alarm is given at the same time when waveform capturing ends, the

waveform is registered in the Rejected Waveform Area.

Example 3

* The level edge is cleared when the STOP signal is turned on with the START signal

* In the above case, since the START signal is turned on again at "D", the state of "C" is

restored, where the return level edge and the rising edge of the START signal are

awaited. Therefore, waveform capturing finally starts at "E".

Example 5

* If the signal "Capture start by external signal" is ON when the START signal turns

from ON to OFF , waveform capturing starts immediately irrespective of

whether or not the input signal crosses over the Waveform Start Level.

9.Method of Starting Measurement

・The minimum pulse width of START/STOP is Ts+0.8msec.

(Ts: 1-sampling interval. See "7-2. Sampling Rate" P40.)

・Operation when the STOP signal is input

　- WAITL status cancel

If the STOP signal is input in WAITL status, the status is forcedlyshifted to STOP status (sampling is not performed).

　- WAIT2 status cancel

If the STOP signal is input in WAIT2 status, the status is shifted as follows:

1. If the waveform has already crossed over the sampling start level, the level edge is cancelled by the first STOP signal, and the status is shifted to STOP status (sampling is not performed) by the second STOP signal.

2. If the sampling start level has not been crossed, the status is shifted to STOP status (sampling is not performed) immediately after the STOP signal is input.

After waveform capturing ends with the STOP signal or excess of 2048 points, etc., approximately 300msec or more are required until the next START signal becomes acceptable.

10. Multi-Hold Mode

10-1. Function

In the Multi-Hold mode, necessary points are detected in the displayed waveform to

make a judgment such as a High/Low Limit Comparison. Up to 32 channels of hold

types, High and Low Limits, etc. can be stored, which can be switched by external

signals or can automatically be switched by using the Auto Code Up function. Detected

hold points are displayed on a graph with a "+" mark.

10-2. Setting and Operating Method

1.　Set desired value(s) [0 ~ 31 (32: all channel number selection)] under Channel

Number Selection in Code Setting, and set each item such as the High and Low

Limits.

2.　Input the channel number(s) set in "1." by using channel selection signals (CODE 1

~ 16) to set operation channel(s).

3.　Sampling can be performed with the value(s) set in "1.".

4.　By also inputting set value(s) to other channel number(s) in "1." beforehand,

sampling can be performed under various set conditions by switching operation

channels (CODE 1 ~ 16) during sampling.

Example

10-3. Hold Functions

Switching operation channels during sampling will result in the following operation.

1. Data of the Judgment output signal (LO1,OK1,HI1) will be

accumulated and output by (LO 2 , O K 2 , H I 2 ). 　　

2. The judgment operation is internally reset once, but it is not necessary to cross over the Hold Start Level again for in Inflection Point Hold, etc.

・ Ts is a sampling interval [msec].

(Ts=1.0 at 1kHz, and Ts=5.0 at 200Hz for example.)

・ The High/low Limit Judgment output is determined within

0.8msec after the COMPLETE signal is determined.

10.Multi-Hold Mode

Points are taken out of waveforms to make a High/Low Limit Comparison by the hold

functions, including Sample Hold, Peak Hold, Valley Hold, Peak-to-peak Hold, Relative

Maximum / Relative Minimum Value Hold, Inflection Point Hold, etc.

Detection starts when the H/M signal is input and the indicated value crosses over the

output is made immediately when there is a minute slope. Therefore, if the Judgment

output is taken in immediately after the COMPLETE output is made, correct results may

not be able to be obtained as is the case with the peak hold.

・ For the High/Low Limit Judgment output, the result of judgment of the

latest input pulse is output to " LO1,OK1,HI1", and the results of judgment of all input pulses are accumulated and output to " LO2,OK2,HI2".

General of the hold functions

The delay times for the Judgment output and COMPLETE do not include the delay time in the analog circuit (low-pass filter). Also, calculations have been made with no digital filter. Since the Judgment output and COMPLETE output are made with respect to analog-filter- and digital-filter-processed values, the transfer of signals becomes slow and the delay of each output increases as each filter is strengthened.

When Pulse Hold is selected by the operation ch at which sampling starts, the main

screen in graphic display is as follows.

・ High and Low Limit Graphs are displayed according to the pulse position.

・ The results of measurement are displayed from the left in the order of pulse input.

・ When no pulse is input, the result of measurement is displayed as "-----."

11. Hysteresis Mode

Sampling waveforms are shown by the solid lines. The hysteresis return output is turned ON when the return waveform sampling starts, and is turned OFF upon its completion. (See "4-3-2. Input and Output Signals" P25.

The hysteresis return output is turned on.

The return in this period is ineffective.

If the operation ch is switched and any hold point occurs in the hysteresis return retrieval period (*), no "+" mark is displayed when the waveform is displayed.

11-1. Function

In the Hysteresis mode, go and return waveforms changing with displacement are

sampled, and necessary points in the waveforms are detected to make judgments such as

High/Low Limit Comparisons.

The maximum sampling rate is 2kHz. The operation is almost the same as in the Multi-

Hold mode except for displacement on the X-axis, go and return samplings, and the

maximum sampling rate of 2kHz.

4. Go and return waveforms are displayed on the graph in blue and red, respectively.

12.Hysteresis 2

12-1. Function

In the Hysteresis 2 mode, go and return waveforms changing with displacement are

sampled for High/Low Limit Comparisons of go measured values and differences

between go and return measured values (go - return) on the displacement points where

external pulses are input.

The operation is the same as in the Hysteresis mode except for the holding method and

the High/Low Limit Comparison method.

1. Sampling is the same as in the Hysteresis mode. (See "11-2. Setting and Operating

Method" P64.)

2. Measure the High and Low Limits.

・ Go measured value comparison: Uses the High Limit / Low Limit. ・ Between-go-and-return difference comparison: Uses the HI-HI Limit / LO-LO

each Pulse Input, the target channels are fixed as

HOLD 1: operation ch, HOLD 2: operation ch+1, and HOLD 3: operation ch+2.

(When the operation ch is 31ch, the target channels are fixed as HOLD 1: 31ch,

HOLD 2: 0ch, and HOLD 3: 1ch.)

Also, the input / output specifications of each signal are the same as in Pulse Hold

(See "10-3-10. Pulse Hold" P62.) (The results of difference judgment are output when

the return displacement point=go pulse input displacement point.)

・ The results of measurement are displayed from the left in the order of pulse input.

・ When no pulse is input, the result of measurement is displayed as "-----".

In the hysteresis 2 mode, hold point display screen is as follows.

・ HI-HI Limit / LO-LO Limit Comparisons are not made.

・ If the operation ch is changed during measurement, the measurement is

stopped forcedly. (The results of previous judgments are not displayed.)

・ Each measurement will not be carried out until sampling starts.

・ Measurements are carried out with the Select Analog CH setting for the

operation ch at which sampling starts. The Select Analog CH setting for operation ch+1/operation ch+2 is ineffective.

・ Do not input any pulse within the hysteresis interval because the result is

not judged normally.

・ No judgment is made if no pulse is input during go.

・ A difference judgment is made when the pulse-input displacement value

is reached during return measurement. (If two or more pulses are input at the same displacement point during go measurement, judgments are made by giving priority as pulse 1>pulse 2>pulse 3.)

・ Use of the Auto Code Up mode allows pulse input by the X-axis

measured value set under Code Up Point. (See "16-1. Method of Setting the Operation ch" P100.)

13-3. Waveform Sampling Procedures

Waveform sampling can be performed efficiently by the following procedures. (It is

assumed that the F395 has been calibrated.)

A waveform is input in synchronization with the "Waveform Drawing" function. For details, see "9. Method of Starting Measurement" P43.

2. Set 100Hz under "Sampling Rate". However, it is normally 2kHz in the Displacement

mode. For use in the Displacement mode, operations in "5." ~"9." are unnecessary,

therefore perform operation in "10." after "3." and "4.".

3. Set "Waveform Start Level" and "Waveform Termination Level" at the desired ch (0 ~

15).

Waveform Start Level: Normally set a value close to zero (approx. the increment ×

10). Set a slightly larger value if noise is large.

4. Set desired channel(s) with external channel selection signals.

5. Exit the setting menu, go to the main screen, input the START signal externally, and

then input a test waveform.

13.Waveform Comparison / Waveform and Displacement Comparison Mode

6. When the waveform is displayed on the screen, decide the scaling, etc., so that the full

waveform is properly displayed by "Waveform Reading".

7. Move the pointer cursor to the end of the waveform, and examine the length of one

cycle of the waveform.

8. Decide the sampling rate most suitable for the input waveform.

(Maximum data of one waveform) ÷ (Length of one cycle of the waveform [sec])

The frequency obtained by this expression is the most suitable sampling rate. When

the above waveform is taken for example: 2000 ÷ 6 sec.=333.33Hz

The closest value under this frequency is the most suitable sampling rate. (It is 200Hz

for the F395.)

9. Select the most suitable value based on the above calculation under "Sampling Rate".

10. Before waveform sampling, execute "Waveform Clear" first.

11. Execute "Waveform Sampling".

12. Press the key on the screen to input the START signal externally,

and input a waveform for sampling.

13. Select whether or not to adopt the input waveform.

Red line: Low limit

14. For repeating sampling to set the ranges of the High and Low Limits, repeat the

operations from 11. When two or more samplings are performed with the F395, the

upper limit of the waveforms obtained by sampling becomes the High Limit, and the

lower limit becomes the Low Limit.

15. Upon completion of sampling, set the area for High/Low Limit comparison under

"Area Setting". Set the start point / end point of the comparison area.

16. Edit the sampled waveform as necessary. Set the point under "Waveform Editing",

and rewrite the graph under "Select Edit". High and low limits can be set for the

waveform within the specified range in a unit of ± % or ± indicated value, and a

new waveform can also be made by drawing a line tying two points.

17. Register the waveform under "Waveform Save". Up to 16 sampled waveforms can be

saved from 0ch to 15ch, which can be used for high/low limit comparison by calling

with external selection signals.

18. The registered waveform can be called and edited again. The waveform called here

and edited as in 16 should be registered again as in 17.

13-4. Waveform Comparison Mode

In this mode, High/Low Limit Comparisons are made with waveforms changing with

time. High/Low Limit comparison values of approx.

2000 samplings can be stored per channel, so that sequential comparisons can be made in

the set area.

If the input waveform is within the range surrounded by the High and Low Limits, the

accept signal is output, and if the waveform is out of the range, the High or Low Limit

signal is output. (Red "+" mark display will result.)

Up to 16 pairs (ch) of High and Low Limit Waveforms can be stored, which can be

switched and controlled by external selection signals as desired.

When the results of measurement are displayed on the graph, the High and Low Limit

Waveforms are displayed only in the comparison area.

13-5. Waveform and Displacement Comparison Mode

In this mode, High/Low Limit Comparisons are made with waveforms changing with

displacement. The operation is the same as in the Waveform Comparison mode.

However, since the X-axis is not a factor of time but input from a displacement sensor,

there are restrictions as follows:

13-5-1. Scale of the X-axis

The full scale of the X-axis is determined by the displacement value (mm, etc.) input by

Equivalent Input Calibration or Actual Load Calibration. (See the item P.37.) Inputs

greater than the above cannot be displayed. The internal resolution is approx. 1/2000.

Also, displacement input values are automatically digital-zeroed with a sampling start

under CAL. Protect when the Level Axis Select setting (See "16-2-9. Level Axis Select

/ Waveform Start Level / Waveform Termination Level / Hold Start Level" P113) is "Y-

axis". (See "6-4. Digital Zero" P39.)

13-5-2. Handling of Sudden Changes

In the case of sudden changes (9 counts or more) in the amount of displacement in the

one-time sampling interval, High/Low Limit comparisons are not made each time.

Comparisons are madeas they are thinned out in accordance with a specified rule.

As a result, the waveform may be displayed as follows:

13.Waveform Comparison / Waveform and Displacement Comparison Mode

Actual input

Captured and displayed waveform

・ During sampling, displacement values are measured by peak hold.

Therefore, even if the displacement is restored, the measured value of the peak point of displacement is processed. (Displacement values are measured by valley hold during return measurements in the Hysteresis / Hysteresis 2 mode.) When two or more samplings are performed at the same displacement point, if any measured value is off the High/Low Limit Waveform, the peak/valley value at that time is recorded (taken later if off both the high and low limits), and if values are not off the waveforms, the last measured value is recorded.

・Samplings with 0 or less displacement values are all processed as

displacement=0.

・Occurrence of thinning-out/ WARNING is shown by changing the color of

the displacement measured value display as follows (upper left of the main screen). (Both return to normal conditions when the START signal is input.)

　　　　Thinning-out ........Yellow

　　　　WARNING ..........Red

・ Sampling is terminated when the displacement value exceeds the full

scale value or the STOP signal is input. For the full scale value of

displacement, see the item P.37.

・When HI and LO are output by forced termination, judgment operation is

not performed

The "0" periods are thinned-out periods. The

wider the loss interval, the sharper a change

occurs. In this case, the WARNING signal is

output (turned on) through pin 48 of the

control connector due to a failure of a perfect

comparison with all data. Slow down the

displacement changing speed to prevent the

WARNING signal from being output. The

WARNING signal is cleared when the

START signal is input (turned on).

13-5-3. Updating the Amount of Displacement

If the amount of displacement is not updated for the number of samplings set under

Forced-Termination Limit (See "16-2-15. Forced-termination Limit" P120.), sampling is

terminated forcedly. At this time, HI and LO are also output simultaneously if the

Forced-Termination Output setting (See "16-2-16. Forced-termination Output" P120.) is

"ON".

of hold operations: sample hold, peak hold, and valley hold can be executed

simultaneously. Simultaneously with the Waveform Comparison Judgment, a High/Low

Limit Judgment can also be made with the hold point.

13-7-1. Operation and Operating Method

Example:

When peak hold is executed

13.Waveform Comparison / Waveform and Displacement Comparison Mode

・ Hold is detected over the period from the start to the end of sampling (at sampling-

time). Hold detection is performed only at sampling-time.

・ The hold detecting method is the same as in the Multi-Hold mode (using the T/H

signal).

・ The hold state is maintained even after completion of sampling by keeping the T/H

signal ON. (The hold can be cancelled by turning off the T/H signal.) Also, the hold is

reset by the timing of starting the next sampling even if the T/H signal is kept ON.

・ For High/Low Limit Judgment with the hold point, the HI-HI Limit / LO-LO Limit

setting is used, and the results of judgment is output to LO2/OK2/HI2. (For hold

operation and judgment of the hold point, the inhibit timer is effective.)

・ COMPLETE is output with respect to Waveform Comparison / Waveform and

Displacement Comparison. Therefore, check the results of Judgment of the hold point

at the end of sampling and by the timing of turning off the T/H signal.

・ The hold point is displayed with an orange "+" mark on the graph (the last one point

only). HI-HI Limit and LO-LO Limit lines are not displayed.

・ By turning on the input "Display after measurement", the last sampling value is held

even without hold operation, but no "+" mark is displayed on the graph.

・ When hold operation is not performed, real-time High/Low Limit Judgments are made

on the sampling value with the HI-HI Limit / LO-LO Limit.

・ For details of the main screen, and waveform reading / rejected waveform reading

screen, see "2-1-1. Touch Panel Type Color Liquid Crystal Display" P7.

13-7-2. Setting Method

1. Set "Channel Number Selection" in "Code Setting" to the same operation ch as used

for measurement.

2. Set the HI-HI Limit / LO-LO Limit judgment to "Hold". (If set at "Sampling ", real-

time Judgments on the sampling value will result.)

3. Set the hold to any of "Sample Hold", "Peak Hold" and "Valley Hold". If the hold is

set at "None", real-time High/Low Limit Judgments on the sampling value with the

HI-HI Limit / LO-LO Limit will result.

4. For High/Low Limit Judgment of the hold point, set the HI-HI Limit / LO-LO Limit.

(See "16-2-7. High Limit / Low Limit / HI-HI/LO-LO Mode / HI-HI Limit / LO-LO

Limit" P109.)

13-8. Un-passing Area Output

If the Un-passing Area Output setting (See "16-2-17. Un-passing Area Output" P120.) is

"OFF", the OK signal is not output when sampling does not pass the comparison area.

Since the judgment output is not made until sampling enters the comparison area in this

case, if it ends in an un-passing state, all of the HI, OK and LO outputs are turned off.

13.Waveform Comparison / Waveform and Displacement Comparison Mode

When the setting is "OFF"

・ The result of the previous judgment is cleared when the START

signal is turned on.

・ No output will also result if sampling starts after the end point.

When the setting is "OFF"

Nothing is output.

13-9. Display After Measurement

Measurement display upon completion of comparison can be selected by the input

"Display after measurement" from the following.

(See "4-3-2. Input and Output Signals" P25.)

1. Input "Display after measurement" ON: The last value is held.

(The held value is canceled when the next sampling starts.)

2. Input "Display after measurement" OFF: Real-time display.

14. Waveform Editing

MODE → Wave Sampling → Wave Call

No pass/fail judgment can be made on the waveform as it is called up here. For making a judgment, the waveform should be stored under "14-4-4. Waveform Save" P91, and further the ch should be input externally (See "13-3. Waveform Sampling Procedures" P69.)

MODE → Wave Sampling → Clear

High limit waveform: Set to -9999 (Not including the decimal point.) Low limit waveform: Set to 9999 (Not including the decimal point.)

The operation is executed by pressing the key.

The waveform data for comparison from channel 0 to 15 that have been registered inside is not cleared.

14-1. Waveform Call-up

Stored waveforms are called up for editing by this operation. Waveforms are stored

under "14-4-4. Waveform Save" P91, and edited under "14-4. Waveform Editing" P84.

Setting range: 0 ~ 15

After call-up, go to the waveform editing screen to display the called-up waveform.

14-2. Waveform Clear

Waveform data for waveform sampling that have been temporarily registered inside is

cleared by this operation. Before sampling waveforms, be sure to execute this operation.

keys, see "14-4. Waveform Editing" P84.

Waveform sampling start key Waveform selection execution key

Temporarily registered waveform data cannot be used in the Waveform Comparison mode as it is, and is also cleared when the power is turned off. By storing waveforms under "Waveform Save" (See "14-4-4. Waveform Save" P91.), these can be used in the Waveform Comparison mode, and are also backed up.

14-3. Waveform Sampling

Waveforms are sampled by this operation. Before this operation, be sure to execute

"Waveform Clear".

1. Press the key ("SAMP" is displayed on the left side of the screen.), and

start sampling by the procedures in "9. Method of Starting Measurement" P43. (The

sampling status is displayed at the top of the Y-axis display.)

2. After waveform sampling, display the sampled waveform. Confirm the waveform by

using the waveform operation keys.

3. Select whether or not to use this waveform. To use, press the key.

The waveform obtained by sampling is registered temporarily. When not using this

waveform, start the next sampling.

4. For performing two or more samplings, repeat "1." to "3." For ending the sampling,

press the key or key.

: To each item selection screen for waveform sampling.

14.Waveform Editing

・When two or more samplings are performed, the upper limit

and lower limit of the waveforms obtained by sampling are registered as the high limit and low limit, respectively.

・ When waveform sampling is executed, OK is output as a

judgment result without performing judgment operation (when "SAMP" is displayed).
