3.2  Configuration (Recording Set Up) 
3.2.1 Setting Configuration and Input Switches 
Introduction 
Configuration switches SW1 (see Figure 3-1) and input switches SW6 are provided on each printed circuit 
assembly associated with a pen channel. If your recorder is equipped with two pens, the printed circuit 
assemblies for the two pens can be set up differently. 
Table 3-2 shows the various available combinations of recording selections (such as chart range, length of 
time for single rotation of chart, whether input is linear or non-linear), input actuation types, and whether 
jumper R56 should be in or out.  
Figure 3-2 shows a sample chart for a 1-pen recorder.    
Procedure 
Follow the procedure in Table 3-1 to set up your recorder model without display. (To set up a model with a 
display see Section 4 – Configuration, Startup, and Operation of Recorder with Display.
The procedure described here assumes that the chart door is opened, the chart plate is swung out, and the 
power is removed. 
 
WARNING 
 
SHOCK HAZARD 
When the unit is powered a potentially lethal shock hazard exists at the AC line connections at TB1 on 
each printed circuit assembly. Make sure the unit power is disconnected before starting the procedure. 
More than one switch may be required to de-energize the recorder. 
Failure to observe this precaution can result in exposure to a potentially lethal shock hazard. 
 
Table 3-1  Procedure for Configuring Model without Display 
Step Action 
Turn off the power to the recorder. 
Go to Table 3-2 and find the desired combination of recording selections and input type for the 
pen 1 channel. 
Set the switches in SW1 and SW6 on the pen 1 printed circuit assembly (the PCA on the right 
when facing recorder) as indicated in Table 3-2. (Pen 1 is purple.) 
Repeat for pen 2 channel (if available). 
For each PCA, make a note of the number assigned to the configuration (from first column of 
Table 3-2). If you have to call Honeywell Technical Assistance for help, tell the support staff the 
configuration number(s) of the pen channel(s) in your recorder to speed up the troubleshooting 
process. 
ATTENTION 
If you set the switches in an ON/OFF combination that does not match any of the configurations in 
Table 3-2, the recorder 
will use configuration #1.
