AND CONNECTION OF HANDY
TERMINAL
7.1Front Panel
The communications connector in the front panel is used for setting up parameters through the Handy Terminal. The alarm-1 and
alarm-2 LEDs light up if an alarm occurs (those LEDs are provided only when the output-2 is specified for alarm output).
7.2Connecting the Handy Terminal
Connect the modular jack-to-connector adapter to the connection
cable (with 5-pin connector) of the Handy Terminal and then connect this adapter to the communications connector of the distributor.
Set the parameters using the Handy Terminal. Refer to the list of parameters in this manual and the Instruction Manual for Handy Terminal (IM JF81-02E).
8.1Settings Related to Inputs and Outputs
8.1.1Input Type
Set by selecting input type from among VOLTS (DC voltage) and
CURRENT (DC current) in D16: INP TYPE.
8.1.2Input Hard Range
Set by selecting the input hard range from among AUTO, HIGH,
MIDDLE, and LOW in D17: SELECT RANGE. Generally, select
AUTO.
● AUTO: Sets the input hard range automatically with respect to
the input range to be set.
● HIGH: For a span of 5 V or more in an input range of -10 to
+10 V
● MIDDLE: For a span of 2.5 V or more in an input range of -5
to +5 V
● LOW: For a span of 0.5 V or more in an input range of -1 to
+1 V
The conditions for the input hard range (HIGH, MIDDLE,
and LOW) are specified for operations within the range of
accuracy rating. The input range may be set to a range not
meeting these conditions, but take note of accuracy limitations. Similar accuracy limitations exist even when AUTO
is selected. For more information on accuracy limitations,
see the general specifications of VJH7 (GS 77J1H07-01E).
8.1.3Input Range
Set the 0% value of input range to D22: INPUT1 L_RANGE and
the 100% value of input range to D23: INPUT1 H_RANGE within
the numerically specified range.
8.1.4Direction of Output Action
Analog output signals can be reversed. To reverse the signal from
output-1, set D38: OUT1 DR to REVERSE. For output-2, set D39
OUT2 DR to REVERSE. To return the output-1 signal to normal,
set D38: OUT1 DR to DIRECT. For output-2, set D39: OUT2 DR
to DIRECT.
8.2Settings Related to Communication
Function
Set the following parameters when output-2 is specified for communication function. For more information on the communication
function, see the Instruction Manual for VJ Series Communication
Function (IM 77J1J11-01E).
8.2.1Communication Protocol
Set the communication protocol by selecting from among PCLINK, PC-LINK WITH SUM, MODBUS ASCII, MODBUS
RTU, and LADDER in F01: PROTOCOL.
8.2.2Communication Address
Set the address number of the isolator numerically in a range of 1
to 99 in F02: ADDRESS.
8.2.3Baud Rate
Set the baud rate by selecting from among 1200, 2400, 4800, and
9600 bps in F03: BAUD RATE.
Set the following parameters when output-2 is specified for alarm
output.
8.3.1Alarm Setpoints
Set the alarm setpoints of alarm-1 and alarm-2 in E03: SET
POINT1 and E04: SET POINT2 numerically.
● Setting range: A range of 0 to 100% of input range
● Setting resolution: 0.1%
8.3.2Direction of Alarm Action
Select the direction of alarm-1 action and that of alarm-2 action from
among HIGH ALM (high-limit alarm) and LOW ALM (low-limit
alarm) and set each in E05: ALM1 ACTION (direction of alarm-1
action) or E06: ALM2 ACTION (direction of alarm-2 action).
● To activate alarm status when input signal ⱖ alarm setpoint,
select HIGH ALM.
● To activate alarm status when input signal ⱕ alarm setpoint,
select LOW ALM.
8.3.3Hysteresis
Set alarm-1 and alarm-2 hysteresis, in E09: HYSTERESIS1 and
E10: HYSTERESIS2. Hysteresis is a value added to the alarm
setpoint in order for an alarm status to be released (to normal) after
the alarm status has been activated. The alarm status will be released in the following conditions, depending on the direction of
alarm action.
* When HIGH ALM (high-limit alarm) is set: Alarm is released
when input signal < (alarm setpoint - hysteresis).
* When LOW ALM (low-limit alarm) is set: Alarm is released
when input signal > (alarm setpoint + hysteresis).
● Setting range: A range of 0 to 100% of input range
● Setting resolution: 0.1%
8.3.4Alarm ON Delay and Alarm OFF Delay
Set alarm-1 and alarm-2 ON delays in E11: ON DELAY1 and
E12: ON DELAY2 and then alarm-1 and alarm-2 OFF delays in
E13: OFF DELAY1 and E14: OFF DELAY2.
An alarm ON delay is a delay time from the establishment of alarm
condition to alarm output; an alarm OFF delay is a delay time from
the establishment of return-to-normal condition to output.
● Setting range: 0 to 999 seconds
● Setting resolution: 1 second (Note that about 0.2 second will
be added to set time to prevent erroneous operation.)
For example, when an alarm ON delay is set to 1 second, alarm
output is generated if alarm status continues for more than 1 second after the input value exceeds the alarm setpoint. Further, when
an alarm OFF delay is set to 2 seconds, alarm output is released if
normal condition continues for more than 2 seconds after the input
value has returned to normal from the alarm status.
8.3.5Direction of Relay Action
Set the direction of relay energizing in alarm-1 normal condition
and alarm-2 normal condition by selecting from among NRM DEENERGIZED (de-energized under normal condition) and NRM
ENERGIZED (energized under normal condition) in E15: RL1
ACTION and E16: RL2 ACTION and set them.
9. DESCRIPTION OF ALARM ACTIONS
This chapter describes examples of alarm actions under the following conditions.
The product starts running immediately when the power is turned on;
however, it needs 10 to 15 minutes of warm-up before it meets the
specified performance.
For cleaning the instrument, use a soft and dry cloth.
11.1 Calibration Apparatus
● A voltage and current generator (Yokogawa 7651 or the
equivalent)
● A voltmeter (Yokogawa 7562 or the equivalent)
●
A precision resistor of 250 ⍀ ± 0.01%, 1 W (for current output)
11.2 Calibration Procedure
Connect the instruments as shown in Fig. 10.1. First adjust the output-1 signal and then the output-2 signal.
Produce input signals equivalent to 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100% of the
input span from the voltage and current generator to the isolator.
Then, check that the isolator’s output signal shows voltages corresponding to 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100% of the input span within the
rated accuracy range.
If the output signal is out of the rated accuracy range, adjust the
output signal level using the Handy Terminal (JHT200).
