Overview of Preparation for Measurement

Before measuring temperatures, set the tag names, etc., on the main unit.

There are two methods for making the settings. One is for the main unit and the other is for a personal computer. For efficiency, use a personal computer to set many items.

Setting up the main unit

• Setting the date and time

• Setting the name of the main unit

Setting up TM20 from PC Setting up TM20 via TM20’s faceplate

Make settings (using a tag/log table) for:

• Collector function such as the tag names, input channel(s) used, alarms, name of the operator, and comments.

• Logging function such as the log name, input channel(s) used, measurement interval, and measurement period.

Make settings for:

• Collector function such as the tag names, input channel(s) used, alarms, name of the operator, and comments.

• Logging function such as the log name, input channel(s) used, measurement interval, and measurement period.

Setups required to use collector function (setting tag names, alarms, name of person, and comment, and selecting input channel(s))

To use the collector function, you need to set the tags in advance. A convenient way to do so is to create a table of tags and logs, namely, a tag/log table. Once you create a tag/log table and set it to the reference table, Thermo-Collector automatically replaces abbreviated tag names* with more descriptive full names** when receiving the measured data from a TM20.

* Abbreviated names are 8-digit names that can be displayed on the TM20 screen.

** Full names can be displayed on the PC screen without any limitation in length.

Setup contents

Tag name

Put a title for each tag.

Input channel

Thermo-Collector has multiple input channels and probes for measuring temperatures of substances in a vapor, solid, or liquid phase. Since the probe to be used depends on the measuring object, it is necessary to set the available input channel on a tag in advance.

The following table shows the probe types and their corresponding input channels.

Probe type

Thermocouple types K, J, E, and T

± 100 mV or ± 1 V voltage output sensor (See TIP below.)

[TIP]

To plug a voltage output sensor into channel A or B, use a U-shaped omega connector.

Alarm

• ON/OFF of the upper-limit alarm and upper-limit temperature

Make the following settings to sound an alarm when the temperature rises above a preset limit.

Selecting the reference tag/log table which should be used to replace abbreviated names with full names

Instead of abbreviated tag and log names, the longer, more descriptive full names set in a specified table can be stored along with measured data to an Excel worksheet file. When receiving a batch of measured data from a TM20, Thermo-Collector searches through the

Abbr. Name column in the specified reference file of tag/log table for names that match the tag or log names of the received data. If a matching name is found, Thermo-Collector fetches the full name corresponding to the abbreviated name from the reference table, and stores the full name in the Excel worksheet file in place of the abbreviated name.

1.

From the File menu, choose Tag/Log Table then Select Reference Table.

Then, select the reference table in the dialog box that appears.

2.

Click Yes to confirm the selection.

Once the reference table is selected, its filename is displayed in the lower-left of the window and the aforementioned automatic name replacement will take place.

Of course, you can directly set entries in a setup file instead of copying settings from a tag/log table.

Next, proceed to operator name setting.

Full names have no limitation in length. If you select this table as the reference person table, Thermo-Collector will replace the abbreviated names with the corresponding full names based on this table when receiving measured data from a TM20.

4.

Add and insert rows as necessary.

You can insert and add rows by either of the following ways:

• Using a shortcut menu that opens by a right-click

• Using keystrokes of CTRL+I and CTRL+R

Setting comments

Comments for recording in a TM20 can be set. Up to 32 previously set comments can be stored in the memory of a TM20 together with each measured value. For example, setting a comment describing the action taken when the result of measurement is no good, such as

“Re-measure” or “Discard,” records the action that was performed consequently.

Setups required to use the logging function

(setting the log name, input channel, measurement interval, and measurement period)

Settings relating to the logging function must be made here.

A convenient way to do so is to create a table of tags and logs, namely, a tag/log table. Once you create a tag/log table and set it to the reference table, Thermo-Collector automatically replaces abbreviated tag names* with more descriptive full names** when receiving the measured data from a TM20.

* Abbreviated names are 8-digit names that can be displayed on the TM20 screen.

** Full names can be displayed on the PC screen without any limitation in length.

Setup contents

Log name

Put a title to each log. A log name can consist of a maximum of eight alphanumeric characters.

Input channel

Thermo-Collector has multiple input channels and probes for measuring temperatures of substances in a vapor, solid, or liquid phase. Since the probe to be used depends on the measuring object, it is necessary to set the available input channel on a tag in advance.

The following table shows the probe types and their corresponding input channels.

Probe type

Thermocouple types K, J, E, and T

± 100 mV or ± 1 V voltage output sensor (See TIP below.)

Non-contact thermo probe

Input channel

A, B

D

[TIP]

To plug a voltage output sensor into channel A or B, use a U-shaped omega connector.

Measurement interval

Set an interval at which the temperature is periodically measured. The interval can be set to between 1 second to 24 hours.

Measurement period

Set a period through which the temperature is measured continuously. The period can be set to between 1 second to 999 days.
