DESCRIPTION
The instrument is the first circular chart recorder with the ability to record trend data and print alphanu-
meric in four colors. It uses unique “ring only” charts and has the ability to zone and scale trend data.
These capabilities not only provide the best trend data readability, but also instant association with the
corresponding scales. Whether it’s basic application of recording inputs, to a demanding application
requiring derived variables, logic functions, totalization, or other capabilities, the instrument can be
supplied with the necessary level of sophistication, while maintaining an uncomplicated operator inter-
face.
MODELS
The instrument is available in versions for trend recording of one to four values. The number of colors
can equal the number of trended values, or all four colors can be provided. The latter option provides
the greatest color flexibility and makes it easier to add trend capability to the instrument in the field. The
instrument can have up to eight inputs, and inputs are not directly associated with trend pens. The
instrument can trend any combination of inputs, averages, derived variables, logic states, even totals. A
full compliment of options provides the flexibility to handle virtually any type of application.

CONFIGURATION
A multilevel prompting scheme provides rapid access to all configuration data. By model number and
selective enabling the software displays only those configuration sections needed. The 40 character,
vacuum fluorescent display provides true English language prompts. The 15 keypad makes moving
through the prompts and modifying the parameters intuitive. Multiple choice selections and use of the
“quick select keys” simplifies the programming of many parameters. Copy functions make configuring
similar sets of parameters even faster. Two methods of modifying character strings simplifies the entry
of English tags and units. The instrument even displays the proper jumper placement for the installer.
The instrument can virtually be configured without looking at the manual.
