Selecting Recorder Output Type
There are 2 identical analog outputs on each Sensor card in the Model 880. The 9 pin female D-
SUB connectors labeled SOURCE x/x contain these analog outputs (see
section x3.10), either of which is used for the recorder output. You may
program one of five variables to appear on this output. They are absolute
rate, rate deviation, power, thickness or remote. The Remote setting
allows a voltage level to be determined by an external computer to appear at this output. (See T command
of computer interfacing, Section x6)

Selecting Recorder Output Channel
There are 2 identical analog outputs on each Sensor card in the Model 880. The 9 pin female D-
SUB connectors labeled SOURCE x/x contain these analog outputs (see
section x3.10), either of which can be used for the recorder output. A
source output channel (1-8) can be selected for use here and the other
source output channel (per card) can be used for the strip chart recorder
(defined by an SS MAPS parameter: source output chnl). If the source output channel parameter and the
recorder output channel are set to the same channel, the source output channel will be used and the recorder
function will be lost. If this situation should occur, a reboot will be necessary to reassign the recorder
output.

Units Month Day Year
Setting The Clock
These 2 parameters program the clock of the Model 880. These are used in the process accounting
mode. The format for the time is 24 hour time. One o'clock in the afternoon is 13:00. The date is
programmed in month-day-year format without any separators. You need to enter any zeros in the day
(March 5th is 05, not just 5) and year fields. The range of dates is from 01/01/1989 through 12/31/2088.
That is to say, 89..99 years are interpreted as 1989..1999. 00 through 88 are interpreted as 2000..2088.
This date is year 2000 compliant, as far as the Model 880 is concerned. Use of the two digit year numbers
outside of the Model 880 require proper recognition of the century digits (19 or 20) which are implied but
not included in the exported (via RS232) information.
