2.1 Installing Input Modules (Adding or Replacing)

14 Input modules specified at the time the instrument is ordered are supplied prein- stalled. Use the following procedures to add or replace input modules, or to remove them from the instrument. 2.1 Installing Input Modules (Adding or Replacing) Preparations • To avoid electric shock accident, before removing or replacing an input module, confirm that the instrument is turned off and that the connection cords are disconnected. • The mounting screws must be firmly tightened or the input module may not perform to specifications, or may even fail. When an input module is not used • To avoid the danger of electric shock, never operate the instrument with an input module removed. To use the instrument after removing an input module, install a blank panel over the opening of the removed module. To avoid damaging input modules, do not touch the input module connectors on this instrument. Using the Model 8958 16-Ch Scanner Unit In the following cases, the Model 8958 must be adjusted before use with this instrument. See "Scanner Unit Zero Position Adjustment" (⇒ p. 27) • When installing the Model 8958 16-Ch Scanner Unit in this instrument • When the zero position has shifted due to aging or environmental changes When using the Model 8958 16-Ch Scanner Unit together with four Model 8946 4-Ch Analog Units at the same time, the 8946s cannot all be installed in UNIT locations 1 to 4 in the Model 8861. In this case, no more than three 8946s can be installed in UNIT locations 1 to 4. Adding an Input Module Adding an input module does not affect the Sheet Settings screen. To display waveforms from an added input module, select the corresponding dis- play channel on the Sheet Settings screen.

2.2 Connecting the Cables

16 Read the following carefully before making connections. For voltage measurement Using cables with BNC connectors When using the Model 8958 16-Ch Scanner Unit together with other input modules 2.2 Connecting the Cables 2.2.1 Connection Preparations About maximum input ratings of input modules and cables • The maximum input voltage is the lesser rating of either the input module or the cable to be used. Do not measure if this voltage would be exceeded, as damage the instrument or a serious accident may result. Example: When connecting the Model 9197 Connection Cord (500 Vmax) to the Model 8936 Analog Unit (400 Vmax), the maximum input voltage for measurement is 400 V DC. For details of maximum input voltages, refer to "1.1 Product Overview" (⇒ p. 5) and "Chapter 5 Specifications" (⇒ p. 83). • When connecting clip-type test leads to live terminals, be very careful to avoid accidentally shorting conductors together and causing a serious accident. • When measuring voltage in a power line, connection cables should only be connected to the secondary side of a breaker, so the breaker can pre- vent an accident if a short circuit occurs. Connections should never be made to the primary side of a breaker, because unrestricted current flow could cause a serious accident if a short circuit occurs. • Do not permanently connect the device in an environment where voltage surges exceeding the maximum input voltage may occur. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to the device and per- sonal injury. • Do not use cables other than those specified by Hioki. The specified cables include insulated BNC plugs to avoid electric shock. An uninsu- lated BNC plug may cause electric shock or damage to the BNC jack. • Do not connect a cable to the instrument while it is connected to the object to be measured. Otherwise, an electric shock accident may occur. Use only the specified connection cords. Using a non-specified cable may result in incorrect measurements due to poor connection or other reasons. When disconnecting the BNC connector, be sure to release the lock before pull- ing off the connector. Forcibly pulling the connector without releasing the lock, or pulling on the cable, can damage the connector. Do not attempt to measure the same signal with the 8958 and another input module at the same time. Channel switching noise from the 8958 may affect the other input module.

2.3 Connecting Clamps

29 Because it measures only voltage input, current is not measured directly by this instrument. Use a clamp that provides voltage output for current measurement. Refer to "1.3 List of Input Modules, Cables, Probes and Clamp Combinations" (⇒ p. 11) for compatible combinations of Hioki clamps and input modules. Refer also to the clamp’s Instruction Manual for clamp-specific details. Preparations for Using Clamps 2.3 Connecting Clamps Connect the clamp-on sensors to the instrument first, and then to the active lines to be measured. Observe the following to avoid electric shock and short circuits. • To avoid short circuits and potentially life-threatening hazards, never attach the clamp to a circuit that operates at more than the maximum rated voltage, or over bare conductors. • Clamps should only be connected to the secondary side of a breaker, so the breaker can prevent an accident if a short circuit occurs. Connec- tions should never be made to the primary side of a breaker, because unrestricted current flow could cause a serious accident if a short circuit occurs. • When the clamp sensor is opened, do not allow the metal part of the clamp to touch any exposed metal, or to short between two lines, and do not use over bare conductors. To avoid electric shock when measuring live lines, wear appropriate pro- tective gear, such as insulated rubber gloves, boots and a safety helmet. • To prevent damage to the instrument and clamp, never connect or disconnect a sensor while the power is on, or while the sensor is clamped around a con- ductor. • Be careful to avoid dropping the clamps or otherwise subjecting them to mechanical shock, which could damage the mating surfaces of the core and adversely affect measurement. • Measurements are affected by the combined accuracy of this instrument and the clamp. • The measured value is displayed as voltage [V], although this can be converted for display as current [A] using the Scaling function. See "5.4 Converting Input Values (Scaling Function)" in the Instruction Manual • In the following cases, scaling setup is necessary: (1) When using a clamp with a voltage measurement input module other than the Model 8940 F/V Unit (2) When connecting a clamp to the Model 8940 F/V Unit without the Model 9318 or 9319 Conversion Cable For details about connecting clamps to the Model 8940 F/V UNIT: See "2.2.5 Connecting to the Model 8940 F/V Unit" (⇒ p. 21).

2.6 Connecting Logic Probes

37 Up to four logic probes can be connected to the LOGIC receptacles on the right side of the instrument. Each logic probe provides four logic input channels, so up to 16 logic waveforms can be recorded. The following logic probes are supported: • Model 9327 Logic Probe • Model 9321-01 Logic Probe • Model 9320-01 Logic Probe Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the logic probe for specific details. Before connecting a logic probe to the measurement object 2.6 Connecting Logic Probes Do not connect logic probes other than those supplied by Hioki to the logic inputs. For users of the following legacy models: Models: 9306, 9307, 9320 and 9321 These can be used with this instrument by connecting the Model 9323 Conver- sion Cable. To avoid electric shock and short circuit accidents or damage to the instru- ment, pay attention to the following: • The ground pin in the LOGIC connector (plug) of the Model 9320-01 and 9327 Logic Probes (and legacy Models 9306 and 9320) is not isolated from this instrument’s ground (common ground). Use grounding-type polarized power cords for the measurement object and this instrument, and obtain power from the same mains circuit. Connecting to different mains circuits or using a non-grounding power cord may cause damage to the measurement object or this instrument because of current flow through the logic probes resulting from potential difference between the grounds of the different wiring systems. To avoid these problems, we recommend the following connection pro- cedure: Measurement Object Memory HiCorder Logic probe Logic probe Functional Earth Terminals GND Connect this instrument to the same outlet as the measurement object us- ing the (supplied) grounding polar- ized power cord. Connect the measurement object’s ground to the GND terminal of this in- strument. (Always obtain power from the same mains circuit.)

70 During measurement, the measured frequency value can be retained by the Hold function until the frequency of the next cycle has been determined. Also, if the value is not retained and the next value cannot be determined within a specified period, one half of the last measured value can be displayed. Example: Measuring the phenomena of stopping a rotating body 3.10.10 Hold Setting Setting Item: [Hold] Selections Description On Retains the measured value until the next frequency value is deter- mined. 10-ms Off If the next frequency value is not determined within 10 ms, the last value is divided in half. (Default setting) 1-s Off If the next frequency value is not determined within 1 s, the last val- ue is divided in half. The on/off settings of the Hold and Pull-Up functions are not indicated on the Waveform screen. The settings are indicated on the Channel Settings screen. What is the difference between Hold On and Off? When measuring frequency and rotation rate, results are displayed only after the value of one cycle has been determined. When Hold is On, the previously measured value is retained, and with Hold Off, one half of the previous value is displayed if a new value cannot be determined within the specified period. Rotation Stops Hold: On The previously measured value is retained continuously until the next cycle is determined. Because the next cycle never occurs, the stopping condition is not detected. Hold: Off If the cycle is not detected within the specified period (10 ms or 1 s), half of the value of the previous signal is dis- played. As a result, the displayed value gradually approaches zero, allowing the stopping condition to be estimated. Rotation Stops

76 The input module can apply an internal offset to set the reference potential of the instrument to zero volts. Adjustment applies to the currently selected range. Before executing zero adjustment • Turn power on and wait 30 minutes to allow the internal temperature of the input module to stabilize. (Some input modules may require one hour warm- up.) • Zero adjustment cannot be performed while measuring. • Key operations are not accepted while zero adjustment is executing. To execute zero adjustment Move the cursor to the [Zero-Adjust] button, and select F1 [Execute]. Zero adjustment can be performed from the CH SET dialog on the Waveform screen. The input value can be forced to display as zero volts. Input signal bias, such as sensor emf, can be adjusted to display as zero volts. This function applies to voltage and current measurement. See " What is the difference between Offset Cancellation and Zero Adjustment?" (⇒ p. 77) Before executing offset cancellation Connect the probe or clamp to the measurement object and apply the input sig- nal that is supposed to measure zero volts. See "About input voltage during offset cancellation" (⇒ p. 77) When also using scaling, execute offset cancellation before setting the scaling. To execute offset cancellation Move the cursor to the [Offset Cancel] button, and select F1 [Execute]. An asterisk "∗" appears on the [Offset Cancel] button when offset cancellation is active. To revert to the offset value prior to executing offset cancellation, select F2 [Reset]. 3.10.17 Executing Zero Adjustment Zero adjustment is not applicable to the following modules: • The [Temp] mode of the Model 8937 Voltage/Temp Unit • Model 8939 Strain Unit • Modes other than [Voltage] and [Current] of the Model 8940 F/V Unit • Model 8958 16-Ch Scanner Unit In the following cases, zero adjustment should be executed again. • After an input module has been removed or inserted • After power has been turned off and on • After complete reinitialization • When ambient temperature has changed significantly The zero position may have drifted.

77 About input voltage during offset cancellation A constant input voltage is required to execute offset cancellation. If the input voltage is fluctuating, the offset to zero volts depends on the timing of offset cancellation execution. Offset cancellation Offset cancellation is not reset even when power is turned off. It is reset when the input module configuration is changed (after an input module has been inserted or removed). What is the difference between Offset Cancellation and Zero Adjust- ment? Offset cancellation adjusts for input signal bias if there is a potential difference between the reference potential of the measurement object and the reference potential (0 V) of this instrument, so that the reference potential of the measure- ment object appears as zero volts. Zero adjustment sets the input module’s internal bias so the reference potential of the instrument is zero volts. Offset cancellation cannot be executed in the following cases: • When measuring other than voltage or current • When the input voltage is more than ±10 divisions from zero The maximum input voltage and maximum rated voltage to ground are unaffected by offset cancellation of an input voltage to zero volts. There- fore, careful attention is necessary during measurement. When input voltage is constant When input voltage is fluctuating Offset voltage +V1 is set to display as zero regardless of execution time. The offset voltage set to display as zero depends on the timing of offset cancellation execution. If “Warning: Offset Cancel failed.” appears This appears when executing offset cancellation if the input voltage is more than ±10 divisions from zero volts. To avoid the warning, set the input signal within ±10 divisions of zero volts. Offset cancellation reference potential is +V. Waveform after executing offset cancellation Input Signal Waveform

To execute auto-balance Move the cursor to the [Auto-Balance] button, and select F1 [Execute]. Auto-balance can be performed from the CH SET dialog on the Waveform screen (when the unit and channel numbers of the strain module is selected). In the following cases, auto-balance should be executed again. • After changing the measurement range • After an input module has been removed or inserted • After the strain gauge transducer has been replaced • After power has been turned off and on • After performing a system reset • When ambient temperature has changed significantly (the zero position may drift) 3.10.19 Executing Auto-Balance If “Warning: Auto balance failed.” appears The channel on which auto-balance failed is displayed.
