The µR10000 Recorder (hereafter referred to as the recorder) can be used to assign DC
voltage, 1-5V, thermocouple, RTD, and contact or voltage ON/OFF signal to channels
for measurement. The measured results are recorded with pens or dots on a chart paper
that is fed at a constant speed. The pen model can record up to 4 channels; the dot
model can record up to 6 channels.
Alarms
For each channel, various alarms such as high limit alarm and low limit alarm can be
assigned to monitor the measured values. Alarm output relays can be used to output
contact signals when alarms occur (/A1, /A2, and /A3 options).
Recording
The measured results are recorded with pens or dots on a chart paper (trend recording).
The chart speed can be selected from 5 to 12000 mm/h on the pen model and 1 to 1500
mm/h on the dot model.
In addition to trend recording, various types of information can be printed or recorded
on the chart paper such as numeric measured values, alarm occurrence/release, and
predefined messages. Also, the recorder settings can be printed.

1.2 Measuring Input Section
Integration Time of the A/D Converter
The recorder uses an A/D converter to convert the sampled analog signal to a digital
signal. By setting the integration time of the A/D converter to match the time period
corresponding to one cycle of the power supply or an integer multiple of one cycle, the
power supply frequency noise can be effectively suppressed.
The integration time of the A/D converter is selected according to the model from the
table below.
ModelIntegration Time of the A/D Converter
Pen modelSelect 16.7 ms (60 Hz), 20 ms (50 Hz), or Auto
Dot modelSelect 16.7 ms (60 Hz), 20 ms (50 Hz), 100 ms or Auto
• If Auto is selected, the recorder detects the power supply frequency and automatically
• Because 100 ms is an integer multiple of 16.7 ms and 20 ms, this setting can be used
to suppress the power frequency noise for either frequency, 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
• The scan interval on the dot model is 1 s when the integration time is set to 16.7 ms or
20 ms and 2.5 s when the integration time is set to 100 ms.

Functional Explanation and Setup Guide
This function generates an alarm when the measured data meets a certain condition.
The alarm occurrence/release can be recorded on the chart paper. The alarm status
can be displayed on the screen. Also, alarm output relays can be used to output contact
signals when alarms occur (/A1, /A2, and /A3 options).
Number of Alarm Point Marks
Up to four alarms can be set for each channel. The 4 alarm settings are called Level 1,
Level 2, Level 3, and Level 4. The numbers do not indicate a difference in importance.
Alarm Conditions
The eight conditions below are available. The character inside the parentheses is the
symbol used to denote each alarm on the recorder.
• High Limit Alarm (H)
An alarm occurs when the input value exceeds the alarm value.
• Low Limit Alarm (L)
An alarm occurs when the input value falls below the alarm value.
• The measured value falls below the alarm value at time X4, and the alarm is
released.
Note
• The alarm detection operation is reset when a power failure occurs. The operation restarts
after the power recovers.
• If the alarm value is changed while a delay alarm is occurring, the alarm is released if the
new alarm value does not meet the alarm condition.
Alarm Hysteresis
Hysteresis can be specified to the values for activating and releasing the alarm. The
hysteresis applies only to high limit alarm (H) and low limit alarm (L). The hysteresis
width can be set in the range of 0.0% (Off) to 1.0% of the recording span in 0.1 steps.
The setting applies to all high limit alarms and low limit alarms. By default, the hysteresis
width is set to 0.5%.

Non-Hold/Hold Operation of the Alarm Indication
The alarm indication can be set to operate in the following fashion when the alarm
condition is no longer met.
• Clear the alarm indication (non-hold).
• Hold the alarm indication until the alarm ACK operation is executed (hold).
The default setting is non-hold.

Alarm Output Relay (/A1, /A2, and /A3 Options)
Contact signals can be generated from alarm output relays when alarms occur. The
number of output relays is 2 (/A1), 4 (/A2), or 6 (/A3). The alarm output relays are
denoted as I01 to I06 on the recorder.
The following functions can be assigned to the alarm output relay.
Diagnosis Output
The diagnosis output can be assigned to alarm output relay I01.
The relay is activated when there is an error in the plotter operation on the pen model,
when a burnout is detected, or when there is an error in the A/D converter. Output relay
I01 is normally energized and de-energizes when an error is detected (de-energized
operation and non-hold operation).

Reflash Alarm
When multiple alarms are assigned to one alarm output relay, this function notifies the
occurrence of subsequent alarms after the relay is activated by the first alarm. When
subsequent alarms occur, the output relay is released temporarily (approximately 500
ms).
The reflash alarm function is set to three output relays (I01, I02, and I03 (I01 and I02 for
the /A1 option)).
By default, the reflash alarm is disabled.

Note
• If the reflash alarm is enabled, I01 to I03 are set to reflash alarm operation. In this case, I01
to I03 are set to OR operation and non-hold operation regardless of the settings specified in
“AND/OR Operation of Alarm Output Relays” and “Non-Hold/Hold Operation of Alarm Output
Relays” described below.
• If diagnosis output is enabled, I01 is set to diagnosis output.

AND/OR Operation of Alarm Output Relays
When multiple alarms are assigned to one alarm output relay, the condition for activating
the alarm output relay can be selected from the following:
• AND: Activated when all assigned alarms are occurring simultaneously.
The alarm output relays assigned to AND operation are specified as follows: “I01 (first
relay) to Ixx (where xx is the relay number).”
The default setting is “no AND relay.”
Note
• If the reflash alarm is enabled, I01 to I03 are fixed to OR operation. Specifying AND
produces no effect.
• If diagnosis output is enabled, I01 is set to diagnosis output. Specifying AND produces no
effect.
