Section 5 – Recorder Setup

5.0 RECORDER SETUP

The recorder can be fully customized and needs to be set up by the user. The setup is saved in configuration files, which can be saved and loaded by the user. Several configurations are shipped with the unit and can be used as a starting point or the user can start with a clean slate and create a unique configuration.

5.1Input Channels

The recorder has 18 channels that need to be configured and set up. The setup for the channels requires defining the inputs. Channels 1 to 12 (channels 7 to 12 are optional) can be live inputs – analog or digital. Channels 13 to 18 or any other channel not assigned to a live input can be a virtual channel. Unused channels should be set as unassigned. The channels can be:

Analog: Linear – Voltage or Currents, Resistance, Thermocouples, RTD‟s

Square Root Extraction - Voltage or Currents

Digital: Logic input (Dry Contacts).

Frequency Input. Channels 1,6,( optionally 7,12) can accept frequency inputs (Frequency, Period, Count, Pulse Width, Duty Cycle)

Virtual: All channels not assigned above can be Computational, Conditional, Gated Timers or Totalizer channels. Although not directly linked to live inputs, these channels can be indirectly associated with live inputs through the computational and conditional options.

5.1.1 Master Channel Setup

The Master Channel Setup window is a one stop shop to quickly set up all the channels or get a general overview of channel setup. If passwords are enabled the user has to log in as Administrator in order to access. NOTE: You cannot use this option if the unit is in the record mode – you need to stop the recording first (See Section Record Setup).

To access the Master Channel Setup window:

Press the Utility Setup Menu icon on the bottom left of the Task Bar.

Then press the Master Channel Setup icon.

NOTE: It takes the recorder a while to build the

setup display as shown right.

 

The Master Channel Setup dialog window shows the current setup of all the channels and allows the user to edit each of them individually. The checkboxes show whether the channel and its alarms are enabled.
