Explanation of symbols used in the manual:

- This symbol denotes especially important guidelines concerning the installation and

operation of the device. Not complying with the guidelines denoted by this symbol

may cause an accident, damage or equipment destruction.

IF THE DEVICE IS NOT USED ACCORDING TO THE MANUAL THE USER IS

RESPONSIBLE FOR POSSIBLE DAMAGES.

- This symbol denotes especially important characteristics of the unit.

Read any information regarding this symbol carefully

I. USER MANUAL FOR DATA RECORDER

1. BASIC REQUIREMENTS AND USER SAFETY

- The manufacturer is not responsible for any damages caused by

inappropriate installation, not maintaining the proper environmental

conditions and using the unit contrary to its assignment.

- Installation should be conducted by qualified personnel . During installation all

available safety requirements should be considered. The fitter is responsible for

executing the installation according to this manual, local safety and EMC

regulations.

- The unit must be properly set-up, according to the application. Incorrect

configuration can cause defective operation, which can lead to unit damage or an

accident.

- If the device is equipped with PE conntector, it should be connected to PE wire.

- If in the case of a unit malfunction there is a risk of a serious threat to the

safety of people or property additional, independent systems and solutions

to prevent such a threat must be used.

- The unit uses dangerous voltage that can cause a lethal accident. The unit

must be switched off and disconnected from the power supply prior to

starting installation of troubleshooting (in the case of malfunction).

- Neighbouring and connected equipment must meet the appropriate standards and

regulations concerning safety and be equipped with adequate overvoltage and

interference filters.

- Do not attempt to disassemble, repair or modify the unit yourself. The unit

has no user serviceable parts. Defective units must be disconnected and

submitted for repairs at an authorized service centre.

2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

•Multifunctional

Device is designed for recording, displaying current or averaged values and

presentation of technological parameter trends in graphic form.

•Large data storage capacity

The registered measurement results are recorded in the unit's memory. The capacity

of installed memory allows to store over 3 000 000 measurements (8 MB).

•Configurable measurement and control input

The unit has up to 8 channels (depending on version) of measurement signals and

one digital voltage input with programmable functions, e.g. control of the recording

process. Each signal can be freely configured and described. Depending on device

version all measured parameters must be available as current signals (0-20 mA or 4-

20 mA standards for U/I version), voltage signals (0-5 V, 1-5 V, 0-10 V. 2-10 V

standards for U/I version), K, S, J, T, N, R, B, E standards for mV/RTD/TC version

and 60 mV, 75 mV, 100 mV, 150 mVstandards for mV/RTD/TC version) or resistance

(Pt100, Pt500 or Pt1000 standards for mV/RTD/TC version). The internal analogue-

digital converter has a 12 or 16 bit resolution (depending on input type), which

provides high measurement resolution results. Additionally, individual alphanumeric

description (text) of each of the recorded channels is possible.

•Fast serial interface

The data logger is fitted with a galvanic isolation RS-485 interface, programmed with

ModBus RTU transmission protocol. This enables the connection of a number of

data recorders into the network, remote collecting of data from each unit and also

remote configuration. The application of the RS-485 interface instead of RS-232 is

due to the possibility of achieving high transmission speeds using transmission lines

of larger length than is possible with the RS-232 interface.

•Built-in USB Host interface (optional)

Optionally the device can be equipped with built-in USB Host interface, allowing for

data transfer to popular USB Flash Drives (PenDrives). This method allows for

significant simplification of unit application: it is no longer necessary to connect PC

and data logger via RS-485 interface.

Significant acceleration of data transfer is an additional advantage: data download

can be 10 times faster than using RS-485 interface.

WARNING! Device should work properly with any standard Flash Drives, but

manufacturer can not guarantee proper cooperation with non-standard devices, or

with devices developed after data logger release.

•Wide range of power supply voltage and external sensor power supply

The built-in pulse power supply allows power to be supplied to the unit with

85...230...260V AC/DC voltage or 16...24...35 AC, 19...24...50 DC voltage

(depending on version). Data logger (version with current inputs only) is equipped with

voltage output for powering the sensor and converters: 24V DC ±5% / max. 200mA.

User manual - MD200 DATA RECORDER and cooperating

software

•Legible graphic display

The 128 x 64 points display with a backlight mounted on front of the unit is a big

advantage of the data recorder available in two colours. It allows the display of trend

graphs for each channel separately. Different operation modes provide the possibility

of selecting and adjusting the method of data presentation depending on the user's

requirements. Data recording intervals are selected by the user from the menu level.

Additionally, it is possible to set the display to show one current value measured for a

selected channel.

•Easy configuration

There are 6 keys on the front of the data recorder that enable the configuration ofthe

unit. The menu assisted with full text descriptions makes the unit configuration

process quite easy. However, due to a significant number of configured parameters

it is advised to use the attached configuration software for PCs.
