5.5.2 Digital Input Setup
To access the Digital Input Setup dialog window:
Press the Utility Setup Menu icon on the bottom left
of the Task Bar.
Press the Digital I/O Setup icon (left) and then
select Digital Input button (below left) to launch the
Digital Input Setup dialog window.
The Digital Input Setup window dialog box is shown
to the right. It provides complete control over the
setup of the digital inputs. There can be a maximum
of 6 inputs depending on which digital io card is installed in
the recorder. Note
– If there is no Digital IO board in the unit
the enable functions will be grayed out.
Enable: This checkbox is used to enable individual inputs. If
it is checked, the input is active, if it is not, the input is
disabled and acts as though there were no stimulus on the
inputs
– it appears as off (false) to the system. Note that the Master Enable checkbox MUST be checked to
allow any input to function. If a Digital IO card is not present in the recorder or there are less than 6 inputs on
it, you will not be able to check the enable box of inputs not present in the system. (see status below)
Input Function: This drop down selection box allows the user to define the input type and its use. The
options are:
None: No function selected
Alm Ack: Alarm Acknowledge – functions as the Alarm Acknowledge button in parallel with the
screen icon. This will silence the local recorder alarm tone
Alm Rst: Alarm Reset – functions as the Alarm Reset button in parallel with the screen icon to
drop out any eligible relay outputs.
Alm Both: Functions as both the Alarm Acknowledge and Alarm Reset button, equivalent to pushing one
then the other.
Event: Forces an event in the alarm/event log and prints the message in the Event Message box.
Timer Rst: Timer Reset – acts as the External Timer Reset for any timer channel that has been
programmed to be reset externally.
Total Rst: Totalizer Reset - acts as the External Totalizer Reset for any totalizer channel that has been
programmed to be reset externally.
Count Rst: Pulse Count Reset – acts as the External Pulse Count Reset for any Pulse count channel
that has been programmed to be reset externally
Record: Record enable – will cause the recorder to start recording as long as the external input is active
provided the record setup has been programmed to enable this function.
Report: Print Report – will cause a status report
MinMaxAvg: Min, Max, Avg (Average) Reset – acts as the External Min, Max, Avg Reset for any
calculated channel that has been programmed to be reset externally.
Status: Shows the current real time status of the digital inputs. If the status box is green, that input is not
active. If the status box is red, that input is currently active. If the status box is amber, that input is not
available.
