DR5000 Configuration Setup Chart

 

The DR5000 is the first recorder to "self document" setup configuration. This is accomplished by utilizing a setup chart providing the user with an "on the spot" manual providing detailed configuration instructions and documents the current setup for quick review by an operator. A box of setup charts (typically 7 charts) is provided with each recorder.

 

Shown below is a scanned sample of the setup chart used with Counter Clockwise rotation (Partlow style charts). Setup charts for Clockwise rotations (Honeywell style charts) operate in the same fashion but turn opposite direction.
