General Description
1.2 RECORDER DESCRIP-
TION
1.2.1 General. The SIREC D Display Recorder
is a Paperless Recording instrument that
stores it’s data in internal memory and on either a
3½ inch (89 mm) floppy disk or an industrystandard
removable PCMCIA memory card. All
data is stored in MSDOS format and may be archived
or analyzed on any IBM compatible PC
running Microsoft’s Windows 3.1 or Windows 95
using the available Companion software. The instrument
retains all the features of a traditional
Paper Chart Recorder by virtue of its large Liquid
Crystal Display (LCD) which presents the data in
the traditional chart mode as well as in bar graph or
digital numeric form.
The unit has many features and functions which
are unique and cannot be performed on traditional
paper recorders such as data compression and
historic data browsing. The recorder is programmed
via the LCD display which is also a touch
sensitive keypad.
1.2.2 Inputs. The recorder will measure and
process up to 12 direct inputs. If direct inputs are
not desired, the Display Recorder will accept up to
twelve points from a combination of calculated,
conditional, or external point types.
Direct input sources may come from voltage, current,
dry contacts, thermocouple, or RTD sources.
The voltage and current ranges accepted by the
instrument include: 0 to ±100mV, 0 to ±1 Volt, and
0 to ±10 Volts; 4 to 20 and 10 to 50mA current
(using an internally switched 50 ohm shunt). Thermocouple
inputs include B, C, E, J, K, R, S, T,
Nickel/Nickel Moly, and Nicrosil-Nisil. RTD inputs
accepted include 10 ohm Cu, 100 ohm Platinum,
200 ohm Platinum and 120 ohm Nickel.
1.2.3 Instrument Size. The instrument is
sized to fit in a DIN standard panel cutout of
138mm x 138mm (5.43 inches x 5.43 inches) and
requires only 21.6 cm (8½ inches) behind panel
depth. Actual dimensions of the instrument are
shown in Figure 2-1 Recorder Dimensions, in
Chapter 2 of this manual.
1.2.4 Menus. The instrument’s features are
accessed through a series of menus. These menus
are accessed via a command button bar which is
initiated by pressing the MENU button displayed in
the bottom right hand corner of the LCD screen.
There is also a STATUS bar or line along the top of
the screen which can be used to display various
recorder parameters. (Refer to Section 3.1). The
Command button bar contains three user pro-
1-2
gramming option buttons - DISPlay, PROGram,
and FUNCtion. Refer to Figure 1-2 below. Each
menu level features easy-to-follow prompts that
simplify operation.
