Honeywell DR4300 Getting Started

Getting Started with DR4300
Overview
The DR4300 recorder is a one-or two-pen microprocessor-based circular chart recorder providing reliable,
convenient pen-drawn analog traces on preprinted 10-inch charts. Chart speed and range are configurable. In
addition to generating pen-drawn chart traces, the DR4311 and DR4312 models include a display and keypad.
This option lets you display the real-time value of the process variable for each pen channel, as well as other
values.
Each pen channel has its own printed circuit assembly, allowing the channels to operate independently.

shown in Figure 2-7 or 2-8 in the Product Manual, to avoid
damaging the recorder.
• Refer to document 51-52-05-01 for additional information concerning
