Low order communication:
This instrument functions as host unit and reads
data from the units* connected as low order unit
complying with the set parameter content. The
data is to be displayed and recorded as hostunit data. Use COM2 port (RS485) to connect
with the low order units.
To write the measured/ calculated data of this
instrument to the low order unit (PLC) is alsoavailable.
*CHINO products and some of PLC (MELSEC,SYSMAC)SD card playback: This function is to perform trace recording of
measured value, digital recording/printing oftime, time line and maximum/minimum chart
record, etc. on the chart paper by using the data
files of measured values saved in SD card.
To perform the playback recording/printing,select desired files and specify a time range.
Dot-printing is to be performed every 0.05mm
as chart is fed, if any measured value data
exists in the equivalent time scale.
