ASIC (ACQ-ASIC), passes through the graphic controller, and shown on the SVGA TFT color display. The SL1400 can acquire simultaneously up to 16 analog input channels and 16-bit logic data. IM 701240-01E...
Page 34 The sampling timing can also be controlled by a clock signal applied externally. External clock signals are input through the external clock input terminal on the left panel facing the SL1400. This external clock input is useful for observing a signal whose period varies or for observing waveforms by synchronizing to the clock signal of the signal being measured.
Page 35 (see appendix 1). The following equation holds: record length = record time × sample rate. The maximum record length of the SL1400 is 50 MW. The measured waveform signal of a single channel can be acquired up to the maximum record length of 50 MW when only a single channel is displayed.
Page 36: Setting The Horizontal And Vertical Axes
2.2 Setting the Horizontal and Vertical Axes Dot Display By default, the display interpolation function works automatically. However, you can also disable the display interpolation in which case the waveform is displayed using dots. In this setting, up to 100100 points (100 kpoints) of the acquired data are displayed without using P-P compression.
Page 37 Ground mark Measurement Range and Display Range The measurement range of the SL1400 is ±10 divisions (20 divisions of absolute width (span) around 0 V. The display range of the screen is ±5 divisions (10 divisions of span). The following functions can be used to move the displayed waveform and display the waveform outside the display range by expanding/reducing the displayed waveform.
Page 38 2.2 Setting the Horizontal and Vertical Axes Vertical Position of Waveforms «For procedures, see section 5.4.» Since the SL1400 can display the waveforms of the analog input channels (CH1 to CH16) and computation waveforms (Math1 to Math8), the waveforms may overlap making them difficult to be observed.
Page 39 2.2 Setting the Horizontal and Vertical Axes Input Coupling «For procedures, see section 5.5.» If you want to measure just the amplitude of an AC signal, it is best to remove the DC component from the input signal. On the other hand, there are times when you want to check the ground level or measure the entire input signal (both the DC and AC components).
Page 40 • Inputs the signal with no distortion. • Expands the measurable voltage (current) range of the SL1400. When using a probe, the attenuation setting on the SL1400 must be set equal to the probe attenuation or current-to-voltage conversion ratio so that the measured voltage (current) can be read directly.
Page 41 2.2 Setting the Horizontal and Vertical Axes Inversion «For procedures, see section 5.12.» When measuring voltage or strain, the waveform can be displayed with the vertical axis inverted around the vertical position as shown below. Inverted display Normal display Vertical position mark Pulse/Rotate «For procedures, see section 5.20.»...
Page 42 2.2 Setting the Horizontal and Vertical Axes RMS Measurement «For procedures, see section 5.13.» If the module of the selected channel is a 701267 (HV (with RMS)), the rms value of the input signal can be observed. AC-RMS This setting is used when you want to observe only the rms values of the AC signal, eliminating the DC components from the input signal.
Page 43 500 (µSTR) → 0.5×500(µSTR/1000) = 0.25 (mV/V) Gauge Factor (K) when mV/V Is Selected You can set the gauge factor to an arbitrary value on the SL1400. However, if there are no specifications on the strain gauge transducer, set K to 2.
Page 44 2.2 Setting the Horizontal and Vertical Axes Shunt Calibration The 701271 (STRAIN_DSUB) supports shunt calibration. * Shunt calibration refers to the act of correcting the gain of the strain measurement by connecting a known resistance (shunt calibration resistance) to the strain gauge in parallel. For a description of the basic defining equation of strain, see appendix 9.

Page 46 2.2 Setting the Horizontal and Vertical Axes Deceleration Prediction and Stop Prediction The 701280 (FREQ) automatically performs internal computation and displays waveforms by predicting the deceleration curve and stop point even when the input pulse is suddenly cut off. This function allows the measurement of waveforms of deceleration behavior that is close to the actual physical phenomenon in applications in which the deceleration behavior of an object that have inertia is measured such as in the brake test of automobiles.

Page 51 2.3 Setting the Trigger B > Time Trigger, B < Time Trigger, and B TimeOut Trigger A trigger is activated on the falling or rising edge of the pulse when the pulse width (width over which condition B is met) exceeds (or drops below) a preset time. In the case of a timeout trigger, a trigger is activated when a preset time elapses.
Page 52 2.3 Setting the Trigger Period Trigger A trigger is activated by measuring the pulse period (period from the time condition T is met to the next time when condition T is met).

Page 53 2.3 Setting the Trigger • T < T1, T2 < T A trigger is activated when condition B is met the second time, if the time (T) when condition B is met the second time is outside a specified time range (T1 to T2). When condition B: CH1=H, Time1=6 µs, and Time2=10 µs µ...
Page 54 2.3 Setting the Trigger Wave Window Trigger This trigger is used to monitor the power supply waveform. It detects abnormalities in the power supply (disruption, sag, surge, frequency fluctuation, voltage drop, etc.). A reference waveform (realtime template) is created by setting a tolerance (window width) to a waveform derived by averaging 1 to 4 cycles of waveforms before the target cycle of the current waveform.
Page 55 2.3 Setting the Trigger Trigger Mode «For procedures, see section 6.1.» The trigger mode sets the conditions for updating the displayed waveforms. The following six trigger modes are available. Auto Mode If a trigger occurs within a specified amount of time (approximately 50 ms, referred to as the timeout period), the displayed waveforms are updated.
Page 56 2.3 Setting the Trigger Trigger Delay «For procedures, see section 6.3.» Normally, the waveform around the trigger point is displayed. However, by setting a trigger delay, you can display the waveform that is acquired a specified time after the trigger point. T (Trigger position) Delay Trigger point...
Page 57 2.3 Setting the Trigger Trigger Hysteresis «For procedures, see sections 6.5, and 6.10 to 6.16.» If there is insufficient trigger level width such as when noise is present in the trigger source, the trigger point fluctuates each time a trigger is activated. This causes the displayed waveforms to be unstable.
Page 58 2.3 Setting the Trigger Manual Trigger «For procedures, see section 6.19.» You can activate a trigger regardless of the specified trigger condition by pressing the MANUAL TRIG key on the front panel. Index 2-27 IM 701240-01E...
Page 59: Setting Waveform Acquisition Conditions And Display Conditions
(the same time in relation to the trigger point). The SL1400 takes the simple or exponential average of the waveform data and writes the results to the acquisition memory. The averaged data is then used to generate the display.
Page 60 2.4 Setting Waveform Acquisition Conditions and Display Conditions Box Average Mode This mode is valid on the 701250 (HS10M12) and 701255 (NONISO_10M12). The rolling average of the data sampled at the maximum sample rate is determined. The resultant data is stored in the acquisition memory and used to generate the display. Box averaging is effective in eliminating small amounts of noise from the input signal.
Page 61 2.4 Setting Waveform Acquisition Conditions and Display Conditions History Memory «For procedures, see section 11.1.» If the record length is set short on the SL1400, the memory is divided into blocks, and waveform data is saved to the individual blocks each time a trigger occurs. If N represents the maximum number of blocks determined by the record length, the oldest waveform data block is cleared when the number of activated triggers exceeds N.
Page 62 2.4 Setting Waveform Acquisition Conditions and Display Conditions Realtime Recording to the Internal Hard Disk (Option) «For procedures, see section 7.5.» The data can be recorded in realtime to the internal hard disk (option). The stored data can be recalled. The realtime recording area is allocated on the internal hard disk in advance (the default value is 50% of the entire capacity of the internal hard disk).
Page 63 Backing Up the Acquisition Memory «For procedures, see section 7.7.» If the ACQ MEMORY BACKUP switch on the right side panel of the SL1400 is turned ON, the history memory data in the acquisition memory is backed up even when the power supply is cut off.
Page 64 2.4 Setting Waveform Acquisition Conditions and Display Conditions Display Interpolation «For procedures, see section 8.2.» In areas where less than 1000 points of data exist in the 10 divisions along the time axis (referred to as interpolation areas), a continuous waveform cannot be displayed because there is not enough sampled points.
Page 65 2.4 Setting Waveform Acquisition Conditions and Display Conditions Zooming in on the Waveform Horizontally «For procedures, see section 8.5.» The displayed waveform can be expanded along the time axis. This function is useful when the waveform acquisition time is set long and you want to observe a particular section of the waveform closely.
Page 66 2.4 Setting Waveform Acquisition Conditions and Display Conditions X-Y Waveform «For procedures, see section 8.6.» The voltage relationship between signals can be observed by assigning the voltage of the input signal of the specified channel on the horizontal axis (X-axis) and the voltage of another input signal (signal that has the display turned ON) on the vertical axis (Y-axis).
Page 67 2.4 Setting Waveform Acquisition Conditions and Display Conditions Scale Values «For procedures, see section 8.9.» The upper and lower limits (scale values) of the vertical and horizontal axes of each channel can be displayed. Waveform Labels «For procedures, see section 8.10.» A waveform label can be assigned arbitrarily to the input waveform of each channel using up to eight characters.
Page 68: Recording In Recorder Mode

Page 69 Recording stops when the shot record length of measured values is recorded. Then, the SL1400 enters the trigger-wait state. The most recent shot record length of measured data is saved to the internal memory.
Page 70 2.5 Recording in Recorder Mode Saving Data in the Internal Memory In Chart Recorder mode, up to 1000 divisions of the recorded data are automatically saved in the internal memory. The required section of the data that has been cleared from the screen can be redisplayed after the recording is finished by using functions such as zoom (limited to the data in the range defined by “Number of Data Points That Can Be Saved”...
Page 71 2.5 Recording in Recorder Mode X-Y Recorder Mode «For procedures, see section 9.6.» X-Y Waveform Recording: In X-Y waveform recording, the X-Y waveform display starts when waveform acquisition is started. If reprint is executed from the Reprint Setup menu after the record length of waveform (fixed to 1 MW) is acquired or after stopping waveform acquisition, the X-Y waveform acquired up to the point immediately before the measurement was stopped is recorded on paper.
Page 72: Waveform Computation
Waveform Computation Various computations can be performed on up to 800 kW of data on the SL1400. (If a waveform greater than 800 kW is displayed, computation cannot be performed over all the data at once.) The computed results become Math1 to Math8 waveforms.
Page 73 Scaling of Computed Waveforms «For procedures, see chapter 10.» Normally, the SL1400 performs auto scaling when computed waveforms are displayed. However, you can also select manual scaling. When auto scaling, the upper and lower limits suitable for displaying the waveform are determined from the first computed waveform.
Page 74: Waveform Analysis And Search
Waveform Analysis and Search Displaying History Waveforms «For procedures, see section 11.1.» Past waveform data (history waveforms) stored in the acquisition memory can be displayed when waveform acquisition is stopped. You can display a specified history waveform from the data (up to 2000 waveforms, or the number of triggers) stored in the acquisition memory.
Page 75 2.7 Waveform Analysis and Search Cursor Measurement «For procedures, see section 11.4.» The following cursors are available for analyzing the values of each waveform data. H (Horizontal) Cursors Two broken lines (H cursors) are displayed on the X-axis (horizontal axis). The voltage of each H cursor and the voltage difference between the H cursors are measured.
Page 76 2.7 Waveform Analysis and Search Automated Measurement of Waveform Parameters «For procedures, see section 11.5.» Automated measurement can be performed on parameters such as the rise time and pulse width on the specified channel. There are 29 measurement parameters. Up to 24 parameters from the selected parameters of all channels can be displayed.
Page 77 2.7 Waveform Analysis and Search Cyclic Statistical Processing Divides the displayed waveform using a cycle that is automatically calculated and determined and performs statistical processing on the values obtained through the automated measurement of waveform parameters over the determined cycle. Statistical processing is performed from the oldest measured data of the displayed waveform.

The Strain Module (701271(STRAIN_DSUB) supports shunt calibration and contains a built-in relay circuit for shunt calibration.
Page 570 Mode. In normal shunt calibration, only P2:Y is set. In addition to the normal shunt calibration (when the shunt calibration relay circuit is ON), the SL1400 allows the setting of a zero point when the relay circuit is OFF. This function is useful when the strain value is not 0 after the execution of balancing.
Page 571 Note • When executing shunt calibration, select an appropriate range so that the measured values do not exceed the range when the shunt calibration relay circuit is ON. The SL1400 attempts shunt calibration within the current specified range. • If shunt calibration fails (the measured value exceeds the range, for example), an error message is displayed.

Page 574 Period (t) is the average value of multiple pulses. The frequency (f) is calculated as 1/period (t). If the input pulse period is short, the SL1400 automatically takes the average of multiple pulses and calculates the period and frequency. Therefore, the resolution does not degrade even when the input pulse period is short, and highly accurate measurement is possible.
Page 575 Appendix 11 Measurement Principles (Measurement Method and Update Rate) of the Frequency Module Pulse Width and Duty Cycle Measurement • When the input signal is less than or equal to 25 kHz, measurement is made as described in (1). • When the input signal is greater than or equal to 25 kHz, measurement is made from the last waveform in the measurement interval as described in (2).

Page 577 The smoothing filter is a moving average filter in which computation is performed in realtime. The computation interval of moving average is 40 µs (25 kHz). It is constant independent of the sampling rate of the SL1400. The moving average order (the number of points of moving average) is specified in time.
