24 CX-Thermo Support Software Ver. 1.0 EST2
CX-Thermo Support Software Ver. 1.0
EST2
Monitoring/Setting Support Software for
E5CN- and E5ZN-series Temperature
Controllers Providing Easy Setup, Online
Data Logging, and Realtime Monitoring.
• Enables creating, editing, and batch-downloading parameters
from a personal computer, reducing the work required to set
parameters.
• Supports Online Monitoring:
Monitor data for up to 31 Temperature Controllers at the same
time.
(The Temperature Controllers must be from the same series.)
• Supports parameter masks for hiding unused parameters
(E5CN only).
Ordering Information
■ List of Models
Note: The old models of E5CN Temperature Controller (manufactured in March 2004 or earlier) are not supported.
Specifications
Note: 1. This function hides parameters that are not being used. The parameter mask setting can be written from the computer to the E5CN only
(new E5CN models only).
2. Simple data logging enables approximately two hours of data logging when tuning. For continuous data collection, the time during which
data can be collected depends on the hardware specifications of the personal computer (memory capacity and available space on the
harddisk).
Data collection may not be possible during the set logging interval depending on the operating conditions (personal computer processing
speed, baud rate, number of parameters, communications retries, etc.). In this case, the data will be collected in the shortest collection
interval for the usage environment.
3. The old models of E5CN Temperature Controller (manufactured in March 2004 or earlier) are not supported.
