3-10 <3. Installation, Piping and Wiring> Messenger Wire Attachment Procedure for Passing Cables Through a Tube Messenger wire is used for supporting the fiber cable strength and preventing the cable breakage. Refer to Figure 3.8 and 3.9 (1) Attach the wire to the main cable, which can best withstand the tension involved in cable laying.
Page 28
3-11 <3. Installation, Piping and Wiring> As shown in the below figure, bend the messenger wire beside the branching connector. Fix the wire to the main cable with PVC adhensive tape so that the wire cannot pull off from the cable. If bending the messenger wire is impossible or difficult, fix it securely so that the cable cannot freely move.
3-12 <3. Installation, Piping and Wiring> 3.4.2 NR823 or NR824 Fluoride fiber cable WARNING Compared with NR821 or NR822 Silica fiber cable, NR823 or NR824 Fluoride fiber cable has low mechanical strength. Be sure to observe the cautions below. If the fluoride cable is carelessly handled, it will be damaged and must be replaced (it is quite expensive).
PC may not access the same NR800L analyzer simultaneously. (4) Port no. for Ethernet communication A table of the ports used by the NR800L analyzer for Ethernet communications is shown in Table 3.4. Port no. 34293 to 34299 and 34311 and 34312 are dedicated to communications between the NR800L and SPECTLAND2.
Connect via hub as shown below. Connect to the hub via up to 40m of shielded 10Base-T straight cable (Cat. 3 or Cat. 5). You can also connect the NR800L and PC directly (without the hub) by using shielded 10Base-T cross cable.
IP address (example: 192.168.1.xxx). The most significant three octets (higher rank of octets) should be the same for the NR800L and PC, while the least significant octet should be different. For a network connection, ask your network administrator to allocate an IP address.

<6. Measuring Principles> Measuring Principles The measuring principles of the Near-infrared Analyzer (InfraSpec) are described below. InfraSpec applies near-infrared rays of wavelengths between 0.9 to 2.5 mm to a material to be measured, determines the spectrum absorbed by this material, and computes desired property values from the spectrum.
Page 57
<6. Measuring Principles> (2) Optical transmission paths The light source for measurement is, after going through the half mirror, split in two by a beam splitter. One is used for a signal; another for a reference. Both are transmitted with optical fiber cable.
Page 58
<6. Measuring Principles> Interferogram Spectrum Wavelength Wavelength component Time Amplitude F0602.ai Figure 6.2 Interferogram and Its Wavelength Components (6) Calculation of property values By the calibration model from an obtained spectrum, the property values are computed. This calibration model is a relational expression in which the relationship between the spectrum and property value to be obtained, which is determined in advance by using chemometrics software from many spectra and lab values.
<7. Troubleshooting> Troubleshooting WARNING Electrical Shock Laser-generating system The analyzer is very dangerous (possibly resulting in serious injury or death) because a high voltage is always applied to it, and because a laser-generating device is incorporated. Before the analyzer cover is opened for maintenance purposes, be sure to turn off the power to the instrument.
MSC) Not communicating of between PC and NR800L If Management PC is not communicating with the NR800L by Ethernet, check the following items: 1. Power to NR800L, PC and the related equipment. 2. Ethernet status lamps on network cards.
