11.1 Description of Functions (GP-IB)

Listener and Talker FunctionsListener Function

This allows almost all settings except power on/off and operation control.• Settings except communication settings.• Operation control except power on/off.• Call-up of setting data• Specifying of output data (specifying of channel numbers or output data types)• Specifying of causes of interrupt generation (see IM command: page 6-8)

Talker FunctionThe following data can be output:• Measured data• Report data• Data for relay condition• System configuration• Data for operation mode setting• Data for setup mode settingFor measured data, either binary output or ASCII output can be selected. Report data and data forrelay condition are output in binary format. Other data are output in the form of ASCII data.

Data OutputWhen trigger(GET) becomes activated DA100 will store the new data in a buffer. When an outputrequest such as the FM command is received, these new data will be output.

Note the below when using a PC to divide and read output data from the DA100.The data group being read in after ATN* has just become TRUE may miss its first bite.

Example for N88-BASIC (Standard language for PC9801 series)Dividing and reading in measured data line after line.70 PRINT @1; “FM0, 001,010”80 LINE INPUT @1; D$: PRINT D$90 LINE INPUT@1; D$: PRINT D$100 IF MID$ (D$, 2, 1)<>“E” THEN 90“LINE INPUT@1; D$:PRINT D$” in line 90 re-specifies the talker address. Therefore ATNbecomes TRUE before the third data group is being read in.

Precaution:70 PRINT @1; “FM0, 001,010”80 LINE INPUT @1; D$: PRINT D$90 LINE INPUT@; D$:PRINT D$100 IF MID$ (D$,2,1)<>“E” THEN 90The command is changed into LINE INPUT@; D$:PRINT D$ in line 90.ATN won’t become TRUE if the talker address is not re-specified.It’s not necessary to re-specify when reading in data from the same address.

* ATN is a signal for data distinction:TRUE (0) Device messageFALSE (1) Interface message

IM DA100-11E1-2

Status Byte FormatThe format of status byte output in serial polling is as follows:

0 0 0

Upper-level byte Lower-level byte

Interrupt generated at the end of A/D conversion.

Interrupt generated when the internal timer is being operated

or hourly, daily and monthly reports are created.(Optinal)

SRQ

Interrupt generated at the time of syntax error.

Interrupt generated when measurement release is generated

while computation is in progress (with computation functions).

Bit 8: Not used. Always 0.Bit 7: SRQ

This bit changes to 1 when a cause of either bit 1 to 3 or bit 6 has been generated andinterrupts the controller. After responding to serial polling, this bit is set to 0.

Bit 6 : This bit changes to 1 when a measurement release is generated while the computation is inprogress; otherwise, it is 0. This bit is effective only with optional computation functions.After responding to serial polling, this bit is set to 0.

Bit5 and Bit 4: Not used. Always 0.Bit 3: This bit changes to 1 when the internal timer is being operated or hourly, daily and monthly

reports are created. Whenever one of the internal timers 1 to 6 is being used or reports arecreated, the bit changes to 1. After serial polling has been performed, this bit will be reset to0.

Bit 2: This bit changes to 1 when a syntax error occurs in a command and is normally 0.If there is an error in a command description, this changes to 1. After responding to serial

polling, this bit is set to 0.Bit 1: This bit changes to 1 at the end of an A/D conversion; otherwise, it is 0.

When the A/D conversion of measured data is terminated, this changes to 1. After respondingto serial polling, this bit is set to 0.

Status byte and serial polling• In IM commands, the bit status that is to be made effective must be specified. The status of

unspecified bits does not change to 1.• If a new cause is generated before reading out a status byte for which a cause has already been

generated, the existing cause remains in the status byte as is and the new cause is added. Forexample, if bit 1 is in 1 state and bit 2 is newly changed to 1 before reading out the status byte,both bit 1 and bit 2 become 1.

The initial valueThe initial value is ‘ IM2 ’.

2.4 Handshake Format Selection

In order to ensure proper data transfers between the recorder and the host computer via the RS-232-C interface, a mutual procedure is required for processing the electrical signals. Such a procedure isreferred to as a ‘handshake’. Several handshake formats are available, with selection depending onthe host computer being used. The same handshake format must be designated for both the recorderand the host computer.The recorder parameter settings permit any one of the following 5 formats to be selected.

Transmission Data Control(Control format when transmitting data

to the host computer)

Reception Data Control(control format when receiving data

from the host computer)

SoftwareHandshake

When reception of data becomes impossible RTS becomes FALSE, when data recept becomes possible RTS becomes TRUE.

When reception of data becomes impossible DTR becomes FALSE, when data recept becomes possible DTR becomes TRUE.

Transmission is stopped when CTS is FALSE, and is resumed when CTS is TRUE.

Transmission is stopped when X-OFF is received, and is resumed when X-ON is received.

OFF-OFF• Transmission data control : There is no handshake status between the recorder and host

computer. the X-OFF signal from the host computer is processedas data, and the CTS signal is ignored.

• Reception data control : There is no handshake status between the recorder and hostcomputer. When the recorder reception buffer becomes full, theexcess data is discarded.DTR=True, RTS=True (both fixed).

Note• It is necessary to create a host computer program which prevents the recorder and host computer reception buffers from

becoming full.

XON-RTS• Transmission data control : A software handshake status is established between the recorder

and the host computer. The recoeder will stop a data transmissionwhen an X-OFF signal is received from the host computer. Thetransmission will be resumed when the next X-ON signal isreceived.The CTS signal from the host computer is ignored.

• Reception data control : A hardware handshake status is established between the recorderand the host computer. When DA100 recept of data becomesimpossible, an ‘RTS=False’ status will be established. When datarecept becomes possible, an ‘RTS=True’ status will be established.DTR=True (Fixed).

Talker FunctionThe following data can be output:The following data can be output:• Measured data• Report data• Data for relay condition• System configuration• Data for operation mode setting• Data for setup mode settingFor measured data, either binary output or ASCII output can be selected. (for RS-422-A with usingthe multi point.) Report data and data for relay condition are output in binary format. Other data areoutput in the form of ASCII data.


Commands Applicable to RS-422-A/RS-485 OnlyThe following commands are only applicable to RS-422-A/RS-485.

ESC O Open Command (address a communication destination)Setting ESC O xx<terminator>

xx : address, 01 to 31Description Specifies the communicating device by its address. When this command is ex-

ecuted, all commands to the DA100 (including ESC T) become effective.• Only one device can be opened.• Executing ESC O automatically closes all opened devices.• When the DA100 receives this command correctly, it sends “ESC O xx” in

response to the computer.• CR+LF can only used for the terminator.

ESC C Close Command (close the addressed state of a device)Setting ESC C xx<terminator>

xx : address, 01 to 31Description Disconnects the device currently connected. When this command is executed, it

allows opening communication with other devices with the ESC O command.• When the DA100 receives this command correctly, it sends “ESC C xx” in

response to the computer.• CR+LF can only used for the terminator.

The following commands are same as the RS-232-C interface. Refer to User’s Manual shownbelow.

ESC T (Trigger Execution), ESC S (Status Output Command)

Note• ESC corresponds to hexadecimal code (1B)H. On the N88-BASIC, “ESC x” is denoted as “CHR$(&H1B)+”x”.”

Note• The method in eliminating noise depends on the condition in which it is used. In the example, shielded cable is grounded

only at the DA100 (one-sided grounding). This method is effective in eliminating noise in long distance communication in

which there is potential difference between the ground of the PC and the ground of the DA100. When there is no potential

difference between the ground of the PC and the ground of the DA100, grounding both sides (two-sided grounding) is

sometimes effective. In addition, there are cases when grounding both sides with one side having a capacitor connected in

series is effective.

Consider all the above cases in eliminating the noise.


IM DA100-11E3-6

ConverterRecommended converter : Sharp Z-101HE

Caution

Some converters other than the recommended, do not have the FG and SG terminals

insulated. In such cases, do not connect as in the diagram on the previous page (do

not connect anything to the FG and SG terminals of the converter). Especially

when it is long distance, the potential difference may damage the devices or the

communication may become unreliable.

Also, converters without the SG terminal can be used without grounding. For

details, refer to the converter’s manual.

Some converters other than the recommended have their signal polarity reversed (indication of A/Bor +/-). In this case, reverse the connection. If the “RD” LED on the front panel of the RS-422-A/RS-485 module blinks when it receives data, the connection is correct. If it lights, the connectionmay be reversed.

In the case of the two-wire system, the host computer must control the ON/OFF of the transmissiondriver of the converter in order to prevent the collision of the send and receive data. When using therecommended converter, ON/OFF is controlled using RTS.

Using the Module with Devices Using the RS-422-AMaximum of 31 devices with respect to 1 host computer can be connected with this module, but ina system in which devices using the RS-422-A are used together, this may not be possible.• In a system in which former Yokogawa recorders are used together

Some of the former Yokogawa recorders (such as HR2400 and µR) use the RS-422-A driver. Inthis case, the maximum number of devices that can be connected is 16.

Note• According to the RS-422-A standard, the maximum number of devices that can be connected with respect to one port is 10

devices (in the case of a four-wire system).

TerminatorWhen devices are connected in multi-drop configuration (includes point-to-point connections), turnthe terminators of the modules on the extreme ends ON. All modules in between should have themturned off. Terminators are turned ON/OFF using the TERMIN switch on the front panel.Also, turn ON the terminator on the host computer (refer to the computer’s manual). When convert-ers are used, turn their terminators ON also. The recommended converter needs an external termi-nator to be installed, but some converters are internal types.

Minimum Response TimeBecause send and receive are done on the same line in the two-wire system, minimum response timeneeds to be set. The minimum response time is the amount of time the RS-422-A/RS-485 modulewaits in order for the host computer to be able to receive the data after it sends data. The time can beset in the range from 0 to 100 ms. Set the time using the dip switch on the front panel of the RS-422-A/RS-485 module to match the computer or the converter’s specification. (Refer to “3.5 RS-422-A/RS-485 Interface Parameter Setting Procedure.”) Note that the minimum response time is, as thename indicates, the minimum time for responding. Not all responses will take place in this time.In the four-wire system, the minimum response time does not need to be set (set to 0 ms).

4.1 Introduction of Functions (Ethernet)

Connecting to the NetworkThe Ethernet Module DT300-41 can connect to a network conforming to IEEE802.3 through a10BASE-T.By connecting to a network, a PC also connected to the same network will be able to read the datameasured by the DA100. However, to do so, the PC must have the following application softwareinstalled.

Data Acquisition Software 32 (DP120 comes with the DA100)Data Acquisition Software 32 Plus (DP320 sold separately)

These applications are used to set the IP address and other parameters, read in the measured datawith the PC, and display various measurement information.

Note• Because the IP address is not set at the time of shipment, an error will occur if you try to communicate without setting the

IP address first.

What You Can Do with the Ethernet moduleYou can do the following things by using the Ethernet module.

Read in the DA100 measurement data with the PC, configure and control the DA100from the PC (supports RS-232-C commands)By using the Data Acquisition Software 32 or the Data Acquisition Software 32 Plus, you will beable to read in the DA100 measurement data with the PC and configure and control the DA100from the PC. This is possible, because the Ethernet module supports all the commands that aresupported by the RS-232-C module.You can also create an original program using the RS-232-C commands.For details on the commands, see chapter 5.

Read in instantaneous value dataYou can read in the current measured data with the PC.

Check the communication conditionsThe following information can be displayed on the computer screen by using Telnet.• Warning information.• The socket address and connection state of the DA100 and the PC.• Information about the network.

About the PortsThe Ethernet module uses separate ports for the three functions mentioned above. The number ofPCs that can connect (software connections) to each of the ports varies.

4.9 Setting the Timeout

A PC connected to the DA100 for a certain period of time is automatically disconnected.

ET Sets the timeout.Mode Operation modeSyntax ETp1<terminator>p1 Timeout time

0 No timeouts (Default setting).1 Disconnect after one minute without any access2 Disconnect after 15 minutes without any access3 Disconnect after 30 minutes without any access4 Disconnect after one hour without any access5 Disconnect after two hours without any access6 Disconnect after ten hours without any access

Description • This command is common to both ports, 34150 and 34151.

Note• The timeout set with the ET command is used for disconnecting a PC that stays connected for a certain period of time

without any operation.

KeepAlive is used for disconnecting a connection when the physical connection with the PC is disconnected or the PC goes

down.

• ET command does not support sub-delimiters.

5.1 Command Format

Commands are configured with ASCII codes and the content is divided into a command, parameters,delimiters and a terminator.(Example) SR001, VOLT, 20 mV <terminator>

CommandThis is defined with two upper-case letters.

Parameter• A delimiter (comma) is used to separate two parameters.• Numerical values are all set using integers.• If a parameter is a numeric value, the effective setting range varies with the command.• Spaces before and after a parameter and embedded spaces in a parameter are ignored. (However,

for parameters (unit) specified with ASCII character strings, these spaces are effective.)• Parameters which do not need to be changed from the current setting can be omitted. However,

delimiters cannot be omitted.(Example) SR001,, 2 V <terminator>If delimiters continue at the end due to the omission of more than one parameter, they can beomitted.(Example) SR001, VOLT,,, <terminator> -> SR001, VOLT<terminator>

• The number of digits of the following parameters is fixed. If an erroneous number of digits isinput, a syntax error occurs.• Date and time

Date YY/MM/DD (8 characters)YY: Year (enter the last two digits)MM: MonthDD: Day

Time HH:MM:SS (8 characters)HH: HourMM: MinuteSS: Second

• Channel numberA channel number ..................... 3 charactersRange of channel numbers ....... 6 characters AAA-BBFor details of channel numbers, see page 5-4.

Note• If the same setting is to be done for subsequent channels, it can be achieved by connecting channels with a “-” (minus sign).

However, channels that can be set subsequently are effective only in the same unit.

(Example) Setting channels from 1 to 60 in subunit 0 to VOLT, 2 V:

SR001-60, VOLT, 2V

• Do not specify the channels of a module which the DA100 has not recognized. Otherwise, an error occurs. Modules that

cannot be recognized by the DA100 are those which have been newly added or whose slots have been changed. In order for

the DA100 to recognize them, reconstruct the system using the RS command.

• For specifying subsequent channels, the channels must all be in a module that can be recognized by the DA100.

• Relay numberRelay numbers are expressed with 3 characters.For details on the relay numbers, see page 5-4.

IM DA100-11E5-2

5.1 Command Format

TerminatorAny one of the following forms a terminator.

• CR + LF• LF• EOI = True

(If EOI is to be used for a terminator, add EOI = True to the last parameter character.)

Sub-delimitaSeveral commands can be executed in a row when they are divided by a semicolon (;).ExampleXA2, 2, 0.5 ; XV4 ; XI2, AUTO CrLf

Note• The total data length from the first character to the terminator should not exceed 200 bytes.

• A sub-delimita cannot be used for the commands FM, LF, CF, RF, VF, RC, RS, BL, DS, XE, or XZ. These commands can

only be carried out one by one.

• In case of RS-232-C one ACK-status (E0/E1) will be output for each command devided by ;.

• In differential input or RRJC, a change inreference channel number or type of input/input range

• When the computational channel is set to onor off, or the computational expression ormeasuring span is changed.

• When the wiring method and the input rangeof the power monitor module are change

• When continuous has been selected for achannel at p1 and the measurement rangesdiffer, the decimal point of the alarm value willbe decided by each measurement range (Referto page 5-6, 5-7).If the value exceeds the resulting permissiblemeasurement range, an error will occur.For example, when the measurement ranges ofthe channels set to p1 are 20mV, 2V, TC typeT, and the alarm value is set at 10000, then thesituation becomes as follows;

• The alarm value for the channel with the 20mVmeasurement range becomes 10.000mV.

• The alarm value for the channel with the 2Vmeasurement range becomes 1.0000V.

• The alarm value for the channel with the TCtype T measurement range becomes 1000.0°C.Since the measurement range of TC type Tranges from –200°C to 400.0ºC, an error occur.For details about the decimal point, refer to page5-6 to 5-9.

• If p3 is off, the parameters for p4 and p5 areinvalid.

• For the computation channel, the only alarmsthat can be set are the high-limit alarm (H) andlow-limit alarm (L).

Measured/computed or report data output (TS0/TS3)After executing the device trigger“GET ” be sure to output data using the FM command. Executionof “GET” alone without executing the FM command does not output the data. After reading all thedata specified by the FM command, subsequent specification of the FM command without executing“GET” enables the data within a scan to be output.

Setting data output (TS1, TS2, TS8 or TS9)After transmitting the device trigger“GET ” be sure to output data using the LF command. Executionof “GET” alone without executing the LF command does not output the data. After reading all thedata specified by the LF command, subsequent specification of another channel using the LF commandenables the data contents to be output. A/D calibration data output by the TS8 command can beexecuted in the A/D calibration mode only.

Report output (TS4)After transmitting the device trigger “GET ” be sure to read the data using the RF command. Executionof “GET“ alone without executing the RF command does not read the data. After reading all thespecified data with the RF command, subsequent specification of another channel using the RFcommand without executing “GET“ enables that data to be read.

System configuration output (TS5)After transmitting the device trigger“GET,” be sure to output data using the CF command. Executionof “GET” alone without executing the CF command does not output data.

Note• Do not transmit the FM, LF, CF, or RF command before outputting data for specified channels.

• If an FM, LF, CF, or RF command is received while data are being transmitted, transmission of the data is suspended

automatically.

• If the type of output data is changed using the TS command after the execution of “GET,” the changed contents are not

reflected without executing “GET” again. Execute “GET” again.

• After executing “GET,” the execution of “GET” again without outputting data using the FM, LF, CF, or RF command or

without completing the data output sets new data to the buffer. Be careful because old data are lost.

*Data inside the parentheses ( ) are computed data.The number of output bytes can be determined using the following equation:

Number of output bytes = 6 x N + 6 (N = number of output channels)Number of output bytes = 8 x N + 6 (N = number of output channels)

Alarm status formatFor the alarm status, one byte indicates two levels.

1 byte

Level 2 Level 1

Upper digit byte Lower digit byte

1 byte

Level 4 Level 3

Upper digit byte Lower digit byte

The status of two levels is output in hexadecimal notation. For example, if the level 1 alarm statusis 2 (lower-limit alarm) and the level 2 alarm status is 4 (lower-differential-limit alarm), 42H isoutput.

Note• The output data are all output in hexadecimal notation.

• Measured data can be output either from the MSB (upper digit) or LSB (lower digit) according to the specification of the

output order.

Since the instrument determines upper byte and lower byte in units of 2-byte data, the 4-byte computed data are output in

the following way.

If MSB(upper byte): "ABCD"

If LSB(lower byte): "BADC"

The default of BO command is “MSB”

• Data in the channel not connected in the system settings, including channel numbers, are not output.

Then, the data are output starting from computation channels A01 to A10.Data are output in the order of setting parameters subsequent to the setting command. Each dataitem is delimited with a comma (,).

Range of outputtingIf output data are issued on a unit or slot basis, the number of units or slots to which the data areoutput is determined by specified channels. For example, if channels 042 to 236 are specified by theLF command, data from slot 4 of subunit 0 to slot 3 of subunit 2 are output.

Note• Data which are output for burnout and reference junction compensation are those of the channel up to the maximum

number connected for every subunit in the specified range.

• Data which are output for the A/S integration time and AND/OR of relays are those of connected channels.

• Data which are output for energizing/deenergizing relays are output on the basis of the unit to which the module is connected.

• The data of XH command and XY command are output only when DI/DO module or alarm output module is mounted to

DA100.

• “S” as data of XN command is meaningless.

* Previously measured data or computed data. In the case of computed data, the value is set to 0 when thecomputation is reset. At the start of the computation, if the computation was reset, the value is “0”. If it wasnot reset, the value is the last value of the previous computation. The value that can be specified insidethe() is limited to the input channel number (001 to 060) or the computation channel number (A01 to A60).Each computing equation can be used once.

** When specifying HOLD(A):B or RESET(A):B, A and B are channel numbers or computing equations.These can be used once in the beginning of the computing equation.

Computing equations are set according to the following rules.

The number of computing equations

“30” computing equations for the stand-alone type and “60” for the expandable type can be set.

Each computing equation is assigned a number. The numbers are “A01” to “A30” for the stand-

alone type and “A01” to “A60” for the expanded type. These numbers are called computation

channel numbers.

Data applicable for computation

The following data is used for computation.

• Measured data: Specified by channel No. (Stand-alone: 001 to 040; Expandable: 001 to 300)

• Computed data: Specified by computation channel No. (Stand-alone: A01 to A30; Expandable:

A01 to A60)

• Constant: Value specified for Stand-alone: K01 to K30; Expandable: K01 to K60.

• Group data: Measured data of channels belonging to a group. Specified by group No. (G01 to

G07). This is applicable only for CLOG.

• Communication input data: Data written to the instrument’s memory via communication

interface. Specified by data No. (Stand-alone: C01 to C30; Expandable: C01 to C60)

• Data on internal RAM disk: Measured/computed data saved in the internal RAM disk. Use the

following numbers to specify data.

Measured data:

Stand-alone: M001 to M040; Expandable: M001 to M300

Computed data:

Stand-alone: MA01 to MA030; Exoandable: MA01 to MA060

Priority of operatorsThe priority of operators in a computing equation is as follows. The operators are placed in order

from the highest priority.

Type Operators

Function ABS(), SQR(), LOG(), LN(), EXP(), MAX(), MIN(), P-P(), SUM(), AVE(),PRE(), HOLD():, RESET():

Exponentiation **

Signs, logical negation +, -, NOT

Multiplication, division *, /

Addition, subtraction +, -

Greater/less relation .GT., .LT., .GE., .LE.

Equal/not equal relation .EQ., .NE.

Logical product AND

Logical sum, exclusive OR OR, XOR

Range when computing

When the value exceeds ±10308 during the computation, computation error (overflow) occurs.

Units in computing equations

In computations, measured data are handled as numbers without units. For example, if the

measured data of channel 001 is “20 mV” and the measured data of channel 002 is “20 V”, the

computed result of “001+002” becomes “40”.

Limitations in computing equations

Multiple operators can be used in 1 computing equation. But, there are following limitations.

- Number of characters that can be used : 40 characters

- Total number of channel numbers and constants: 16 (Computation erroro ccurs when 16

exceeded, and the computed result becomes +OVER or -OVER)

- Computation channel numbers: Computation channel numbers less than the current computation

channel number can be used as variables within the computing equation.

Example: A02=001+A01 ← Computation channel numbers greater than or equal to A03 can not

be used in this computation.

- Statistical operators (TLOG. or CLOG.) can only be used once in 1 computing equation.

Control of the computing operation

There is a method to control using the data collection software and the method to control using the

event/action function described on the next page.

- Control using the data collection software

This software allows for the start/stop of the computation, and the clearing of the computed result

(select between just clearing or immediately compute after clearing).

App. 2 Report FunctionThe DA calculates and processes an hour’s, day’s or month’s worth of measurement or computation

data into instantaneous values, averages and/or sums. The results can be delivered using the

communication function.

Reports come in the following three types.

• Hourly report

Intervals Between Making Reports; Every hour (1:00, 2:00 . . ., 23:00, 24:00)

Data Item for Computing; An hour’s average, maximum and minimum

An hour’s sum and cumulative sum

Instantaneous value at the time of making the report

• Daily report

Intervals Between Making Reports; Every other day (preset time)

Data Item for Computing; A day’s average, maximum and minimum

A day’s sum and cumulative sum


• Monthly report

Intervals Between Making Reports; Every other month (preset time)

Data Item for Computing; A month’s average, maximum and minimum

A month’s sum


On/Off of Hourly, Daily and Monthly Report Making

Configure the on’s and off’s of hourly, daily and monthly report making, separately. You can set

hourly, daily and monthly report making all to “on” at the same time. In addition, you can set daily

and monthly reports to either the standard format (ON1) or the enhanced format (ON2) of output.

Note that the enhanced format can only be set for either daily reports or monthly reports.

Output Formats

The format of output is available in either the standard or enhanced format. Hourly reports can have

the standard format only.

Standard format: Prints the results of computing configured on a report-channel basis.

Enhanced format:

Daily reports: the results of computing configured on a report-channel basis plus

information on instantaneous values given at each preset time.

Monthly reports: the results of computing configured on a report-channel basis plus

information on instantaneous values given simultaneously with the

preset time for making each report

Time to Make Report

Set the time to make a report in the format day of month : time. Define the day of month field within

a 01-28 range and the time field within a 00-23 range.

Hourly reports:

The DA makes reports every hour on the hour (1:00, 2:00, . . ., 23:00, 24:00). For cumulative

summation, it resets the cumulative sum at a preset time.

Daily reports:

The DA makes reports at a preset time or times. For cumulative summation, it resets the

cumulative sum at the preset time of a day.

Monthly reports:

The DA makes reports at a preset time of the day.

being computed or computation channels and the type of computing on a report-channel basis.

When making a report of computed data, let computing start before letting the report making start.

Types of Computing

Setting Parameter Data Item for Computing

INST Instantaneous value at the time of making reportAVE Average, maximum and minimum over the computing periodSUM Sum and cumulative sum over the computing period

Sum and Cumulative Sum

Sum: The total sum over an hour for hourly reports, the sum over a day for daily

reports or the sum over a month for monthly reports. The DA resets this value

each time it makes any of these reports.

Cumulative sum:The total sum up to the preset time to make a report in the case of hourly

reports or the sum up to a preset time of the day to make a report in the case of

daily reports. The DA resets this value at each preset time or at each preset

time of the day for report making. The DA does not perform cumulative

summation for monthly reports.

As an example, the following illustrates the process of summation and cumulative summation for

hourly reports. The example shows the case where the preset time to make a report is 8:00.

Unit of Summation (SUM UNIT)

Such input data items as the flowrate that have a unit in /sec, /min, /hour or /day, when simply

summed, give results of computing different from their actual values. This occurs because the unit

of such a data item differs from that of the measurement interval. In that case, you can take the

output after having converted the unit of summation so it matches that of the input data item applied.

Unit of Input (Preset Unit) Conversion Formula

INTVL (no conversion) Σ (measured data values)/sec Σ (measured data values) × measurement interval/min Σ (measured data values) × measurement interval/60/hour Σ (measured data values) × measurement interval/3600/day Σ (measured data values) × measurement interval/86400

Starting/Stopping Report Making

Report making can be started or stopped in two ways:

• DR command

• Use the event/action functions to define the start/stop of making a report for the following events:

Edge action: You can define every event as an edge action to start/stop report making.

Level action:You can use remote, alarm, relay signals as events to start/stop report making.

Report making starts at the same time that any of these events occur. Report

making stops when the event clears.

Note• If you start report making, all reports created up to that point are reset.

• When report making is in progress, you cannot make changes to measurement channels, measuring ranges or dates and

times nor can you copy information on the ranges.

• If any computed data are included in your report making, let computing start first and then get report making started. If you

fail to enable computing, the data in your reports will become meaningless because no change takes place on the computed

data.

• If you want the start of computing and report making enabled at the same time, use the event/action functions to assign both

of these instructions to the same event as actions.

Time Relationship Between the report start/stop and report making

The following figure shows the time relationship between the report start/stop and report making.

Start of report making

Denotes the point in time a report is created.

Time to make report Time to make report Time to make repor

Stop of report making

• Data items included in the first round of report making after the start of report making are

fewer in number than those included in the second and subsequent rounds of report making.

• If the time when data are sampled coincides with the time to stop report making, the DA

samples data before stopping report making. The report created when the DA stops making

reports thus includes those data.

• If the time when report making is started coincides with the time the report is created, the start

of report making precedes. Thus, no report is created.

• If the time when data are sampled coincides with the time to start report making, the data

sampled at the same time report making started are included in first round of report making.

The report created when the DA stops making reports thus includes those data.

• If you have defined timer and match-time signals as events using the event/action functions so

the time report making starts matches the time the report is created, data items included in the

first round of report making are one data item greater in number than those included in the

second or any subsequent round of report making.

Processing Against Absence of Measurement

Measurement may not take place if the DA is loaded beyond its processing capability. If absence of

measurement occurs, the DA compensates for the missing data with the data it measures

immediately after recovering from the absence of measurement (the data for the period with no

measurement thus match those acquired immediately after recovering from the absence of

measurement).

If Power Failure Occurs While Report Function Is Active

The DA takes different actions depending on the length of a power failure.

If the power failure time is longer than 12 hours:

The DA makes a report immediately after it recovers from the power failure and then stops making

reports. It does not execute printing based on the settings for automatic printing. Print out reports

either using the communication function or from the FUNC menu.

Results of computing: The DA computes data measured up to the point immediately before the

power failure.

Time of report making: The time when the power failure occurred.

If the power failure is less than 12 hours:

The DA takes different actions depending on the time it recovers from the power failure.

Handling of Faulty Data

If data being computed contain any faulty data, the DA treats the data as summarized in the

following table, depending on the type of computing and faulty data.
