Anderson Manufacturing AV-9000 manual Chart Rotation Actuator, Choice

CHART ROTATION (Actuator)

Actuator that is controlled by the selected state for the CHART ROTATION prompt found in the Chart Prompts section. See ROTATE CHART ACTUATR.

CHART ROTATION (Prompt) - Chart Prompts - Page 6-2

Parameter that controls the CHART ROTATION actuator. This parameter is like a special Operator Input which is pre-configured, but located in the Chart Prompts, as it causes no action directly, but merely changes the state of the CHART ROTATION actuator. For some applications it may be desirable to control chart rotation with a prompt, so this was included in the Chart Prompts.

CHART SIZE - Chart Prompts - Chart Configuration - Page 6-2

Parameter that specifies the chart size: 10, 11, or 12 inches.

CHART SPEED - Chart Prompts - Page 6-1

This prompt only appears if ALTERNATE SPEED USED is set to YES. The choices of NORMAL or ALTERNATE control the ALT CHART SPEED actuator, which is typically selected for the ALT SPEED ACTUATOR parameter in the CHART CONFIGURATION section.

Chart Speed - Chart Prompts - Chart Configuration - Page 6-3

Configured at the NORMAL SPEED prompt, provides user selectable chart speeds.

CHART TAG - Chart Prompts - Chart Configuration - Page 6-3

Parameter used to specify a description or designation that can be printed on the edge of the chart.

CHART TYPE USED - Chart Prompts - Chart Configuration - Page 6-2

Parameter that specifies the type of chart being used. The choices are: RINGS ONLY, RINGS AND TIME LINES, and RINGS/LINES/SCALES. RINGS ONLY corresponds to charts that only have preprinted rings, and this is what is typically used, as it takes full advantage of the recorder’s ability to annotate the chart. In some cases, customers may prefer preprinted lines to be used for time lines and scale lines, which corresponds to RINGS AND TIME LINES, or preprinted scale values as well, which corresponds to RINGS/LINES/SCALES.

Choice

A general term which refers to a parameter that is configured by selecting one of several descriptions that ap- pears in the lower display, rather than a value or number. Choices vary from the simple YES and NO, to one of a list of over 100 actuators.

COLLECT DATA ACTUATR - Chart Prompts - Chart Configuration - Page 6-13

Parameter that specifies the actuator that controls whether data is “collected”. “Collected” means that it is cap- tured or retained for recording on the chart. If the chart is “rotating”, the trend data will be recorded immediately. If the chart is not “rotating” the data will be retained until the chart begins rotating for normal recording. Data can be retained for a limited time, before the oldest data is discarded to make room for the newest data.

CONFIGURATION - System Prompts - Section 4

A section of the System Prompts which provides access to INPUTS, PROCESS VARIABLES, RECORDERS, RELAYS, and other sections to configure the various functions of the instrument.

Configure Chart - See CHART CONFIGURATION

CONNECT THE AVERAGES - System Prompts - Configuration - Recorders - Page 4-46

The recording method that is the same as AVERAGE VALUES, but prints a line between successive averages to form a continuous trend line.

CONNECT THE VALUES - System Prompts - Configuration - Recorders - Page 4-46

The recording method that is the same as INSTANTANEOUS VALUES, but prints a line between successive values to form a continuous trend line.
