SAFETY NOTES
1. Before any other connection is made, the protective earth terminal shall be connected to a protective conductor. The Mains (supply voltage) wiring must be terminated in such a way that, should it slip in the cable clamp, the Earth wire would be the last wire to become disconnected. 2. In the case of portable equipment, the protective earth terminal must remain connected (even if the recorder is isolated from the mains supply), if any of the I/O circuits are connected to hazardous voltages*. WARNING! Any interruption of the earth terminal inside or outside the apparatus, or disconnection of the protective earth terminal is likely to make the apparatus dangerous under some fault conditions. Intentional interruption is prohibited. Note: In order to comply with the requirements of safety standard BS EN61010, recorders without onoff switches shall have one of the following as a disconnecting device, fitted within easy reach of the operator, and labelled as the disconnecting device. a. A switch or circuit breaker which complies with the requirements of IEC947-1 and IEC947-3 b. A separable coupler which can be disconnected without the use of a tool c. A separable plug, without a locking device, to mate with a socket outlet in the building 3. Whenever it is likely that protection has been impaired, the unit shall be made inoperative and secured against unintended operation. The nearest manufacturers service centre should be consulted for advice. 4. Any adjustment, maintenance and repair of the opened apparatus under voltage, should be avoided as far as possible and, if inevitable, shall be carried out only by a skilled person who is aware of the hazard involved. 5. Where conductive pollution (e.g. condensation, carbon dust) is likely, adequate air conditioning/filtering/sealing etc. must be installed in the recorder enclosure. 6. Signal and supply voltage wiring should be kept separate from one another. Where this is impractical, shielded cables should be used for the signal wiring. 7. If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment might be impaired. 8 Before switching on the apparatus, ensure that it is set to the voltage of the power supply. * A full definition of Hazardous voltages appears under Hazardous Live in BS EN61010. briefly, under normal operating conditions, hazardous voltages are defined as > 30V RMS (42.2V peak) or > 60V dc.

1.3.1 HANDLING PRECAUTIONS (Cont.) 1. Personnel handling MOS devices, or circuit boards containing them, should wear anti-static materials such as cotton. In particular, nylon clothing should be avoided. 2. All bench tops should be covered with conductive material (104 to 105 Ohms per square) maintained at recorder chassis potential. 3. Circuit boards removed from the recorder should be placed in a static safe bag for short term storage* 4. Personnel handling MOS devices, or circuit boards containing them, should wear a wrist strap connected (Via a safety resistor) to the bench top conductive covering, or if appropriate, to a convenient point of the recorder chassis or pen tray. 5. Leads of MOS devices not in circuit should be shorted together using conductive foam or similar. 6. MOS devices should not be extracted from, or inserted into circuit, whilst the circuit has power applied.
1.3.2 Terminology
ANTI-STATIC This term means that the material in question does not itself generate static electricity. Such materials do not give protection against external electric fields. STATIC SAFE This means that the material in question a) does not generate static electricity, and b) any device enclosed in such material is safe from the effects of external electric fields.*
*Note: Because of the conductive nature of static-safe materials, consideration should be given to the shape of any anti-static container used for long term storage of any circuit containing one or more dry cells (batteries).
Page 4
Caution This procedure involves the removal and refitting of circuit boards which contain components susceptible to electro-static discharge. Before starting, ensure that a suitable static-safe area is available for the short-term storage of these boards. Caution No side forces should be applied to the pens or pen mountings. When the pen has to be moved whilst carrying out the following procedure, the cord capstan should be used whenever possible. If the cord is broken, and here is no alternative, then the pen carriage may be moved by applying gentle sideways pressure to the pen cartridge AS CLOSELY AS POSSIBLE TO THE GUIDE RAILS.

For each pen tray: 6. Carefully remove all paper dust etc. with a soft brush. Make a visual inspection of the pen drive-cord and display ribbon for signs of wear. If necessary replace the drive cord and/or ribbon as described in sections 3 and 4 respectively, of this manual. 7. Check that the pen carriage guide-rails are clean and bright. Use the cord capstan to move the pen carriage from one end of its travel to the other, to check that it is free to move over its complete range. Leave the pen at the extreme right-hand end of travel. 8. With the pen carriage at its right-hand end of travel, use a Correx gauge, at the centre of the pen drive-cord span, across the front of the tray, to deflect the cord 2mm. The acceptable range is 6 to 9 cN (centi-Newtons). If the Correx reading lies outside this range, use the tension adjustment arm to correct it, or if necessary, replace the drive cord as described later in this manual.

2. Continue from step 2 of section 2.3.1 above, up until the final stage of re-assembly, noting that the Model 345 may also be fitted with an annotator tray. When re-assembling, ensure that the hinge spring is correctly located when the hinge pin is inserted (figure 2.3.2b above). 3. Check pen pressure and pen separation as described in section 2.3.1. ANNOTATOR DOTTING HEAD ADJUSTMENT PEN HEIGHT Use feeler gauges to check that the pen-to-chart distance lies between 1.1 and 1.4 mm inclusive. If it lies outside this range, use the adjustment screw on the underside of the annotator pen carriage (figure 2.3.1b), to set the height. DOTTING FORCE (MODEL 342D) Carry out the adjustment as detailed for Models 342A/344 above, in section 2.3.1. DOTTING FORCE (MODEL 345) 1. Enter the Calibration menu and select Ann. Carriage. 2. With the pen tip slowly dotting at the left-hand end of travel, remove the cassette and place the probe of a Correx gauge under the pen tip. Check that the reading lies between 6 and 9 cN inclusive. 3. If the measured force is incorrect, use the adjustment potentiometer (figure 2.3.1c) as described in section 2.3.1, above.

DOTTING HEAD ADJUSTMENT PEN HEIGHT Use feeler gauges to ensure that the pen-to-chart separation height (whilst not dotting) is between 1.1 and 1.4 mm inclusive. If not use the cord clamp screw (figure 3.4a) to adjust the pen tip height appropriately. Once the correct tip-height has been achieved, the cord clamp nut should be used as a lock nut a) to secure the cord clamp, and b) to lock the pen height adjustment screw. DOTTING FORCE 1. Enter the Calibration menu and select Ann. Carriage. 2. With the pen tip slowly dotting at the left-hand end of travel, remove the cassette and place the probe of a Correx gauge under the pen tip. Check that the reading lies between 6 and 9 cN inclusive. 3. If the measured force is incorrect, use the adjustment potentiometer located on the pen drive circuit board, as shown in figure 2.3.3a, above.. A clockwise rotation increases the dotting force, and vice-versa.

RE-CORDING PROCEDURE (Cont.) 14. Rotate the capstan and check that the cord winds on and off neatly. Rotate the capstan fully clockwise until it is stopped by the cord. Rotate the capstan anticlockwise until just before the cord stops coming off the capstan tangentially, and check that the hole in the capstan is facing (approximately) the front of the tray. 15. Carefully move the pen carriage to the right hand end of its travel. Clamp the cord onto the pen carriage using the screw and clamp plate previously removed. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN. An 0.1 Nm torque driver should be used if available. Note: The cord should lie underneath the clamp, on the side nearest the front of the pen tray. 16. Rotate the capstan to move the carriage over its entire range. Check that the cord is always tangential with the capstan. If not, release the clamp and slide the pen carriage along the cord slightly. Repeat until the cord remains tangential with the capstan. Leave the pen at the right-hand end of its travel. 17 With the pen carriage at the right-hand end of its travel, apply the probe of a Correx gauge to the mid point of the cord span across the front of the pen tray, and deflect the cord 2 mm. The reading should lie between 6 and 9 cN inclusive. 18. If the cord is too tight, pull an extra millimetre or so through the ferrules to reduce the tension and repeat steps 16 and 17. 19 If the cord is too loose, move the tensioning arm backwards to increase it, and repeat steps 16 and 17. 20 With the cord tension between 6 and 9 cN, crimp the two ferrules as tightly as possible, and cut off the remaining cord containing the knot. Figures 3.1a and 3.1b below show the cording route for channel pen trays. Channels 0 (Model 342D only), 1 and 3 are identical except for slight differences in motor position.

8. Pass the ends of the cords round the front pulleys, and across to the capstan. Thread the ends through the hole in the side of the capstan, so that they emerge on the inside. Check the routing of the cord to ensure that it will be able to go round all the pulleys; e.g. it is not wound round the dotting head guide rails or the pen tray side arms.

3.4 MODEL 346 PEN TRAY RECORDING (Cont.) RE-CORDING PROCEDURE (Cont.) 9. Pull the ends of the cord through the capstan and, referring to figure 3.4b, feed both cord ends through one of the spring end rings, and one only through the other end ring. Using a puller (section 3.2) and a pair of pliers, pull the cord ends through the ferrule, one at a time. Locate the ferrule such that the cord ends protrude approximately 2 mm. Crimp the ferrule onto the cord, and melt the ends together using a hot soldering iron.

Slide the spring towards the ferrule, until it is in contact with it.. Place one of the plastic washers, previously removed, over the capstan spindle. Slide the capstan towards the spring, and curl the spring into the centre of the capstan. Wind the right-hand part of the cord a single anti-clockwise (counter clockwise) turn round the capstan, moving from the hole towards the top. Wind the left-hand part of the cord a single clockwise turn round the capstan, moving from the hole towards the bottom. Place the capstan over its spindle. Place the remaining plastic washer over the spindle, and secure using the grip ring previously removed. Route the cord neatly round all the pulleys, including the tensioning arm pulley. Clamp the cord gently. Run the dotting head from one end of travel to the other, ensuring that the cord winds and unwinds neatly at the capstan, without any crossovers. Release the cord clamp sufficiently to allow the dotting head carriage to slide over the cord without damaging it. Slide the dotting head to its right hand mechanical stop. Rotate the capstan clockwise, allowing the cord to slide past its clamp, until all the left hand cord is unwound, and the capstan hole is facing slightly right of front centre. Tighten the cord clamp using the screw and nut, and slide the dotting head to its left-hand end of travel. Check that the hole in the capstan is now pointing slightly left of front centre. If necessary, release the clamp and adjust the position of the dotting head carriage on the cord until the angle at which the hole in the capstan stops is equal, on opposite sides of centre front (figure 3.4c). Re-tighten the clamp.

3.4 MODEL 346 PEN TRAY RECORDING (Cont.) RE-CORDING PROCEDURE (Cont.) 22. With the carriage at the right-hand end of travel, use a 0 to 30 centi-Newton (cN) Correx gauge to deflect the cord, at a point half-way between the carriage and the left hand side, until it touches the front guide bar (this is best done with the pen tray upside-down). The reading should lie between 20 and 25cN inclusive. Adjust the position of the tensioning arm as necessary in order to achieve the correct tension reading, and repeat step 21. Re-assemble the pen tray components, ensuring adequate static precautions are taken when handling the circuit board. Ensure that all electrical connections are re-made. Return the pen tray to the recorder and carry out the dotting adjustments described in section 2.3.3.
