DR4300 Circular Chart Recorder

3.2 Configuration (Recording Set Up)

3.2.1 Setting Configuration and Input Switches

Introduction

Configuration switches SW1 (see Figure 3-1)and input switches SW6 are provided on each printed circuit assembly associated with a pen channel. If your recorder is equipped with two pens, the printed circuit assemblies for the two pens can be set up differently.

Table 3-2shows the various available combinations of recording selections (such as chart range, length of time for single rotation of chart, whether input is linear or non-linear), input actuation types, and whether jumper R56 should be in or out.

Figure 3-2shows a sample chart for a 1-pen recorder.

Procedure

Follow the procedure in Table 3-1to set up your recorder model without display. (To set up a model with a display see Section 4 – Configuration, Startup, and Operation of Recorder with Display.)

The procedure described here assumes that the chart door is opened, the chart plate is swung out, and the power is removed.

WARNING

SHOCK HAZARD

When the unit is powered a potentially lethal shock hazard exists at the AC line connections at TB1 on each printed circuit assembly. Make sure the unit power is disconnected before starting the procedure. More than one switch may be required to de-energize the recorder.

Failure to observe this precaution can result in exposure to a potentially lethal shock hazard.

Table 3-1 Procedure for Configuring Model without Display

Step

Action

1Turn off the power to the recorder.

2Go to Table 3-2and find the desired combination of recording selections and input type for the pen 1 channel.

3Set the switches in SW1 and SW6 on the pen 1 printed circuit assembly (the PCA on the right when facing recorder) as indicated in Table 3-2.(Pen 1 is purple.)

4Repeat for pen 2 channel (if available).

5For each PCA, make a note of the number assigned to the configuration (from first column of Table 3-2). If you have to call Honeywell Technical Assistance for help, tell the support staff the configuration number(s) of the pen channel(s) in your recorder to speed up the troubleshooting process.

ATTENTION

If you set the switches in an ON/OFF combination that does not match any of the configurations in Table 3-2,the recorder will use configuration #1.
