Page 27: Card Slot
100/180MM PAPERLESS GRAPHIC RECORDER: USER GUIDE 2.3.1 Stylus A stylus suitable for use on the touch screen is located in a storage area to the left of the Compact Flash/SD Card slot. 2.3.2 Card slot The slot for the Compact Flash or SD card is located centrally behind the flap. If an SD card is already fitted, it is removed by pressing on the card, to unlatch it, then pulling the card out of the slot.
Page 28: File
100/180MM PAPERLESS GRAPHIC RECORDER: USER GUIDE 2.4 LOCKABLE FLAP OPTION This option allows the access flap below the display screen to be locked against unauthorized access to the Compact Flash/SD card. It also provides some protection (in the form of a warning message) against the inadvertent removal of such a card whilst archive data is being written to it.

Page 93: Spanned
100/180MM PAPERLESS GRAPHIC RECORDER: USER GUIDE 4.3.3 CHANNEL/ALARM CONFIGURATION (Cont.) SPANNED This box, when selected, allows span low and high values to be entered. For example, in an input range of 0 to 600 deg C, it may be that the temperature range between 500 and 600 degrees is of most interest. In such a case, setting span low to 500 and span high to 600 will cause the recorder to display only that part of the input range, and this will fill the zone width which is selected next, effectively magnifying the area of interest.

Page 272: Polyline - Series Of Points
100/180MM PAPERLESS GRAPHIC RECORDER: USER GUIDE 7.4.16 Polyline - series of points Similar to closed polygons, described in section 7.4.17 below, but the first and last points are not automatically joined, and the drawn item cannot be filled and the line width cannot be specified - it is always one pixel. Note: When working in percentage units, it should be remembered that vertical percentage units are only 2/3 the size of horizontal percentage units - this affecting the appearance of the drawn item.
Page 273: Polygon - Closed Area
100/180MM PAPERLESS GRAPHIC RECORDER: USER GUIDE 7.4.17 Polygon - closed area This allows a number of pairs of points to be entered, which, if valid, will then be joined by straight lines. The first and last points are automatically joined, by the recorder. The shape, drawn in the specified foreground colour, with the specified line width, can be filled with the specified background colour.
Page 274: Oval
100/180MM PAPERLESS GRAPHIC RECORDER: USER GUIDE 7.4.18 Oval Similar to an arc (section 7.4.20) with an arc angle of 360 degrees, but arcs cannot be filled, If the height and width of the oval are defined in the default ‘percentage units’, then entering equal values for height and width will result in an oval with the same aspect ratio as that of the screen, not a circle as might be expected.
Page 275: Example
100/180MM PAPERLESS GRAPHIC RECORDER: USER GUIDE 7.4.20 Arc This causes a curved line of user-definable thickness to be drawn anti-clockwise between start angle and (start angle + arc angle).
