Page 15: Chapter 1 Functional Description
Chapter 1 Functional Description Overview of the Recorder The RD100B 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.
Page 16: Measuring Input Section
Measuring Input Section Input Section Number of Measurement Channels and Scan Interval The recorder samples the input signals on the measurement channels at the scan interval to obtain the measured values. Model 1-pen model 2-pen model 3-pen model 4-pen model Dot model Input Type, Measurable Range, and Computation The recorder can measure the following types of inputs.
Page 17 • Delta Computation The value obtained by subtracting the measured value of another channel (called the reference channel) from the input value of the channel set to delta computation is used as the measured value of that channel. The reference channel must be assigned to a channel whose channel number is less than that of the channel on which delta computation is specified.
Page 18 1.2 Measuring Input Section Bias A given value (bias value) is added to the input value and used as the measured value of that channel. Input value <Related Topics> Setting the bias: Section 7.15 and 6.12 Burnout Detection of Thermocouples This function makes the recording go off the scale to the right or left when the thermocouple burns out while measuring temperature with a thermocouple.
Page 19 Noise Elimination from Input Signals Filter and Moving Average This function used to suppress the effects of noise that is riding on the signal. The pen model and dot model are equipped with a filter function and a moving average function, respectively.
Page 20 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.
Page 21: Alarms
Alarms 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).
Page 22 1.3 Alarms • Delay High Limit Alarm (T) An alarm occurs when the measured value remains above the alarm value for a specified time period (alarm delay period). • Delay Low Limit Alarm (t) An alarm occurs when the measured value remains below the alarm value for a specified time period (alarm delay period).
Page 23 Alarm Indication The alarm status can be displayed on the screen. For details on the display, see section 1.5. 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.
Page 24 1.3 Alarms 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).
Page 25 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. •...
Page 26 1.3 Alarms Non-Hold/Hold Operation of Alarm Output Relays The alarm output relay can be set to operate in the following fashion when the alarm condition is no longer met. • Turn off the relay output (non-hold). • Hold the relay output until the alarm ACK operation is executed (hold). The setting applies to all alarm output relays.
Page 27: Recording
Recording The recorder is capable of recording the measured values with pens or dots (trend recording) as well as various other types of information. Recording Example on the Pen Model Recording Example on the Dot Model The recording examples may appear differently from the actual recording as a result of functional improvements made on the recorder after this manual was written.
Page 28 1.4 Recording Trend Recording The measured values are printed within a width of 100 mm. Recording Method (Pen Model) • The measured value is updated every scan interval and continuously recorded. • The recording colors in order from channel 01 are red, green, blue, and violet. Recording Method (Dot Model) •...
Page 29 1.4 Recording Partial Expanded Recording This function expands a section of the recording range. By default, partial expanded recording is disabled. Compressed Expanded <Related Topics> Setting the partial expanded recording: Section 7.13 and 6.5 Pen Offset Compensation (Pen Model) This function compensates for the pen offset (phase difference) along the time axis. On 2-pen, 3-pen, and 4-pen recorders, there are offsets along the time axis (phase difference) between the pens.

Page 38: Computation Function (/M1 Option)
Computation Function (/M1 Option) Computation Function Computing equations can be set up using measured values and other computed values as variables in computation-dedicated channels, and the computation can be executed. The computed result can be recorded. Computation is performed every scan interval. Channels Dedicated to Computations The computation-dedicated channels below can be used.
Page 39 Range of values (maximum significant digits is 5): –9.9999E+29 to –1.0000E–30, 0, 1.0000E–30 to 9.9999E+29 For the procedure of setting the communication input data, see the RD100B/RD1800B Communication Interface User’s Guide M-4233. • Status of the Remote Control Input Terminal (D01 to D05, /R1 option) The status of the remote control input signal (1 or 0) can be used in the computation.
Page 40 1.6 Computation Function (/M1 Option) • The Number of Channels Being Trend Recorded and the Fastest Recording Interval The fastest recording interval varies depending on the number of channels being trend recorded. Only display or printout is possible on measurement channels or computation channels that are not trend recorded.
Page 41: Fail/Chart End Detection And Output Function (/F1 Option)
FAIL/Chart End Detection and Output Function (/F1 Option) FAIL Output When a failure occurs in the CPU of the recorder, a relay contact signal (1 signal) is output. The relay is energized when the CPU is normal and de-energizes when a CPU failure occurs.
Page 42: Remote Control Function (/R1 Option)
Remote Control Function (/R1 Option) Specified operations can be carried out by applying remote signals (contact or open collector signals) to the remote control input terminals. There are five remote control input terminals. An action can be assigned to each terminal.
Page 43 • Computation Start/Stop • Remote input signal: Rising edge signifies start; falling edge signifies stop • Starts/stops the computation. This is valid only on models with the computation function (/M1 option). • If the computation is started, applying a rising edge signal produces no effect. If the computation is stopped, applying a falling edge signal produces no effect.
