Function Description Reference
Initial setting
(1) Makes initial setting of the following items, which are required to operate the Q68RD3-G, for each
channel.
Section 5.4
•Conversion enable/disable setting •Rate alarm warning detection period
•Averaging processing selection •Rate alarm upper limit value
•Time/count/moving average/time constant setting •Rate alarm lower limit value
•Process alarm warning output enable/disable setting •Scaling range lower limit value
•Setting range •Scaling range upper limit value
•Process alarm lower lower limit value •Scaling valid/invalid setting
•Process alarm lower upper limit value •Scaling width lower limit value
•Process alarm upper lower limit value •Scaling width upper limit value
•Process alarm upper upper limit value
•Conversion setting for disconnection
detection
•Rate alarm warning output enable/disable setting
•Conversion setting value for disconnection
detection
(2) The initial setting data are registered in the parameter of the programmable controller CPU and
automatically written to the Q68RD3-G when the programmable controller CPU changes to the RUN
status.
Auto refresh
