CHAPTER 1 General Description

1.1 Overview

The GL240 with color monitor is a compact, lightweight data logger.

The GL240 can save the high-capacity measurement data directly in the internal memory or SD memory card.

In addition, the setting, measuring and data capturing can be performed in online by connecting to the

computer with the USB cable.

1.2 Features

Input

Adoption of an M3 screw type terminal facilitates wiring.

•

The GL240 enables settings to be made using dedicated keys and interactive menus, using just one

•

hand.

Display

With the GL240’s high-resolution 4.3-inch TFT color liquid crystal display, you can conrm the waveforms

•

of measured data and each channel’s settings at a glance.

Easy operation is achieved through a straightforward menu structure and key allocation which resembles

•

mobile phones.

Data Capture

The high-capacity measurement data can be saved directly in the internal memory or SD memory card.

•

Because the SD memory card is used as an external memory, you can measure a long period of time with

•

peace of mind while data backup.

* When the optional wireless LAN unit is installed, the SD memory card cannot be inserted into the SD

CARD2 slot.

Because disk image can be used for the internal memory, multiple data can be saved.

•

The new ring memory capture function maintains latest data even after capturing for a long term. (You

•

need to set how long you want to keep data.)

For voltage, temperature and humidity measurements, data can be captured at sampling rates of up to

•

10 ms per channel by using fewer measuring channels. (Temperature measurement can be done at sampling rates of 100 ms and higher.)

The GL240 is equipped with the relay recording function, and 2GByte or more data can be saved by

•

switching the to the other le without data missing. (When the capacity of one le reaches 2GByte, the le

is switched.)

Data Control & Processing

The application software provided lets you set conditions and monitor data on on a computer using the

•

USB interface.

The application software allows you to control multiple GL240 units from a single computer to easily

•

perform multi-channel measurements.

The USB drive mode function enables the internal memory and SD memory card to be recognized as an

•

external drive by the PC. (Connect the GL240 to the PC and turn on the GL240 power while holding down the [START] key.)

Captured data can be read from the application software to les and displayed for processing.

•

When optional wireless LAN unit is installed, the data capture can be performed remotely by controlling

•

the G L10 0 -WL .

CHAPTER 1 General Description

1.4 Notes on Temperature Measurement

Please observe the following precautions when performing temperature measurement.

Do not block the air vents. Always provide a space of at least 30 cm on all sides of the GL240.

•

For stabilized temperature measurement, allow the GL240 to warm up for at least 30 minutes after turning

•

it on.

Exposure of the input terminals to direct drafts, direct sunlight, or abrupt changes in temperature may

•

impair the equilibrium of the input parts and result in measurement errors. To measure temperature in such an environment, take appropriate countermeasures such as changing the installation site of the GL240.

To conduct measurement in noisy environments, connect the GL240’s GND terminal to ground (Refer to

•

“2.15 Noise Countermeasures”.).

If measured values uctuate due to noise, set to a slower sampling speed (Refer to “(2) DATA setting” in “3.4

•

Setting Menus”.).

1.5 Notes on Using the Monitor

The monitor is an LCD display unit, and so the display will vary depending on the operating environment.

If the screen saver function is used, it will operate and clear the screen if no operations are performed

during the preset time. If the screen saver operates, press any key to restore the display.

Condensation may form on the LCD screen if the GL240 is moved from a cold to a warm location. If this

•

occurs, wait until the LCD screen warms up to room temperature.

The LCD screen is manufactured to extremely high precision. Black dots may appear, or red, blue, and

•

green dots may not disappear. Likewise, streaks may appear when viewed from certain angles. These phenomena are due to the LCD screen construction, and are not signs of a fault.

1.6 Changing the Display Language

You can choose the language displayed on the screen. The default display language is set to English when the GL240 is shipped overseas. To change the display language, see the instructions in "OTH (OTHER menu :Language".

•

the adapter is 100 to 240 VAC, and the rated frequency is 50/60 Hz. Do not use any other voltages.

Do not input the voltage that is exceeding the specication of this device.

•

· If a voltage exceeding the specied value is input, the semiconductor relay in the input section will be damaged. Never input a voltage exceeding the specied value even for a moment. It will cause the re.

· Have an enough margin from the specication of withstanding voltage when using this device, it have to

consider a noise and change of the measurement voltage.

· Conrm this device is not broken before the input cable is connected to the input terminal.

· Please take care of the static electricity when the connecting the input cables or the thermocouples.

· Do not touch the tip of thermocouples with bare hand after the thermocouples are connected to the terminal of this device when the tip of thermocouples is not insulated. The static electricity of a human body will cause damage to this device.

· Do not put the tip of thermocouples to the object which is containing the static electricity when the tip of thermocouples is not insulated. The static electricity of object will cause damage to this device.

· Do not put the tip of thermocouples to the object which is containing the leaked high voltage of chassis or metal etc. when the tip of thermocouples is not insulated. The leaked high voltage of object will cause damage to this device.

· We recommend that the insulation tape puts on the tip of thermocouples before connecting the thermocouples to the input terminals.

This will protect this device from the static electricity and the leaked high voltage.
