1.1About DARWIN
Created from a completely new concept that is based on modular architecture, the group of next
generation’s data acquisition systems is called DARWIN (Data Acquistion and RecordingWindows).
Today many data acquisition networks are increasingly being linked together. More than ever
before, large volume, high speed, accurate, easy-to-use communication functions are essential in
many disciplines.
In a world of measurement and control where the number of measurement points has increased
sharply, the ability to acquire information from a large number of points easily and economically
is crucial. Interfacing to a personal computer allows simplified utilization of the information
while improving quality and efficiency.
DARWIN is based on a unique, new concept to meet these needs. The art of measurement is
revolutionized by DARWIN which integrates functions of conventional recording and data
logging.
Most existing data acquisition equipment has been the all-in-one type in which the measurement
section and display/recording section are contained in one box. While this simplifies operation on
the one hand, it is difficult to adapt to changes in the measurement environment and also makes
expansion difficult.
DARWIN uses a data acquisition engine and remote I/O modules which are completely separate
from each other. It is an entirely new product line which quickly and flexibly copes with various
restrictive conditions and changes in specifications.
Supported by a personal computer, a whole line-up can be created starting whith the data
acquisitions system DA100 which performs data logging. For example, using a printer as the
output device, the equipment becomes a hybrid recorder (DR series).

1.2DA100’s System Configuration
The DA100 is a data acquisition unit which allows data logging on a personal computer of small
scale, 10-ch data logging up to 300-ch, multi-point measurements.
Measurement data can be analyzed in real-time on the PC, as the DA100 can be controlled using
communication interface.
There are two types of DA100, the DA100 stand-alone type, and the DA100 expandable type.
DA100 Stand-alone type
Being suitable for small scale data logging between 10 and 40ch, the light-weight main unit
allows an easy and quick setting up.
DA100 Expandable type
The expandable type consists of one main unit and by connecting up to six subunits (DA400/
DS600), the number of measurement points can be expanded to a maximum of 300ch. Using
dedicated twisted-pair cables between each unit, it is possible to connect up to 500 meters. Since
even measurement objects scattered over a wide area can be wired fast and with a minimum of
wiring, a flexible, extensive measurement system can be configured.
The input modules to be connected to the DA100 or DA400/DS600 are in units of 10ch and can
be selected from the following, in order to match your measurement conditions.
• Universal Input Module and DCV/TC/DI Input Module
Temperature, DC voltage, and contact signals can be measured, but cannot be connected to a
system's main unit.
• mA-input Module
This module can directly measure DC currents ranging from -20 mA to 20 mA since it contains
shunt resistors. It cannot be connected to a system's main unit.
• Power Monitor Module
This module can measure the effective voltage, effective current, active power, reactive power,
apparent power, frequency, power factor and phase angle for an AC voltage or AC current input.
It is available in either a single-phase or three-phase model. This module cannot be connected to
a system's main unit.
• Strain Input Module
This module can measure strain. It is available in either a model with built-in 120- or 350-Ω
bridge resistors or a model with NDIS terminals where bridge resistors are connected externally.
The module cannot be connected to a system's main unit.
• Pulse input module (to be released soon)
When inputting a TTL signal or contact signal from a revolution counter or flow meter, the
number of pulses can be counted, computation can be carried out, etc..
• Digital Input Module
This module can measured contact signal, but cannot be connected to a system's main unit.
• Communication module
For transfer of setting parameters and measurement data by communication interface.
• Alarm output module
Outputs alarm signals as contact signals.
• DI/DO module
Allows output of a signal in case of alarm or failure.
• Retransmission module
This module deals with data that are measured or computed by the product, or set by a personal
computer via a communication interface. The modules convert them to 1-5 V analog voltage or 420 mA analog current signals for output. The module cannot be connected to the expanable
model's main unit.
• Extender module
To provide power supply to far away input modules.

2.2How to Install the DA100
Installation Conditions
The instrument must be installed in a location where the following conditions are met.
· Ambient temperature: 0 to 50 °C
However, in case you mount the subunits DS400/DS600 directly to a panel, or mount them in a
rack, it is possible to use them in a range of –10 to 60°C.
• When the environmental temperature is 50°C or more, the temperature
of the rear panel may rise to more than 70°C. Thus, touching the rear
panel under these circumstances has the danger of sustaining burns.
• To prevent a fire, always use the instrument in a vertical position, and
do not block the upper side of the modules (a space of at least 3cm is
necessary).
· Ambient humidity: 20 to 80%RH for –10 to 40°C, 10 to 50%RH for 40 to 50 °C, 5 to 30%RH for
50 to 60 °C (However, no condensation should be present.)
· Installation location: Room
· Installation height: Altitude up to 2,000 m
Note
Internal condensation may occur if the instrument is moved to another place where both the ambient
temperature and humidity are higher, or if the temperature changes rapidly. In case of thermocouple input,
this might result in erroneous measurements. In those cases, allow the instrument to achieve equilibrium
with to its new environment for at least one hour before starting operation.
WARNING
Installation Method
Never install the instrument in any of the following locations:
· in direct sunlight or near heat sources;
· where an excessive amount of soot, steam, dust or corrosive gases are present;
· near strong magnetic field sources;
· near high voltage equipment or power lines;
· where the level of mechanical vibrations is high;
· in an unstable place.
The data acquisition unit DA100 and the subunit DS400/DS600 can be installed on the floor,
directly to a panel, or can be mounted in a rack. Units equipped with screw type terminals should
only be used in panel installations.
Floor installation
Swing the feet which are located under the unit to the front as shown in the figure below, and
place the unit vertically. When there might a possibility of the unit tumbling over after wiring,
fasten the feet to the surface using the accessory M4 screws.

2.3How to Connect the Input/Output Modules
WARNING
When connecting the Input/Output modules, make sure to turn OFF the
power to the DA100/DS400/DS600 to prevent an electric shock or damage
to the instrument.
Setting the Unit Number of each Subunit (only for the DA100 Expandable type)
When connecting subunits to the DA100 Expandable type, it is necessary to assign a distinctive
unit-number to each subunit. This number can be selected from 0 to 5 (the setting 6 and up will
not be recognized) and is set, as shown in the figure below, by a setting switch (rotary dipswitch).
Note
When you connect an input module at the location of the setting switch, the switch can not be operated
anymore. Therefore, make sure you set the switch before connecting any input module there. It is
convenient for confirming unit numbers to write each unit number setting on a dented part located on the
top of DS600 subunit or on the left side of DS400 subunit.
Connecting Method
1 Verify that the power to the DA100/DS400/DS600 has been turned OFF.
2 Remove the cover of the location where the module will be connected. Do not remove any
cover of locations where no module will be connected.
3 Hold the input unit so that the male part of the connector at the back side of the input unit
matches the female part of the receiving connector. Then connect the unit.
4 Fasten the input unit by fastening the two accessory M3 screws.

turned OFF, malfunctions may occur and the internal circuitry may be
damaged.
• When connecting the cable, take note of the following.
· Tighten the screws which fasten the GP-IB connector firmly.
· To eliminate noise, we recommend to apply two ferrite cores (as shown above) at both ends of the
cable (e.g. ZCAT 3035-1330 from TDK). Use a shielded interface cable and ground equipment
together at one point.
· Although more than one equipment can be connected to a GP-IB system, only one
communication module can be connected to a single personal computer. To prevent trouble when
using the accessory software, we recommend not to connect any other equipment with this
DA100 system.
· In case several equipment are connected (although this situation is not recommended), make sure
that to each a different address is assigned.
· Use only cables of 2m or less for connections between equipment.

Points to Note when Using the Extension Cables
· The maximum rated temperature is 60°C;
· Never disconnect the extension cable from the connector by pulling the cable, since this might
damage the signal cable. Always hold the plug.
· When wiring the extension cable through a cable duct, or metal pipe or such, protect the peg on
top of the plug by covering it with tape.
· Fasten the cables in such a way that no force is being applied to connector or plug.
· To prevent the wire from snapping, etc. do no apply a pulling force of 70N or more. Furthermore,
do not bend the cable in a radius of 3 centimeters or less.
· For wiring conditions, refer to 2.9 Countering Noise.

2.6Connecting the Signal Lines
WWARNING
• To prevent electric shock, always make sure that the power supply is
turned OFF before connecting .
• When 30 VAC or 60 VDC and more is applied to the output terminal of
the alarm output module or the output terminal of the DI/DO module,
use double-insulated wires(withstand voltage performance: more than
2300 VAC) for those wires which apply 30 VAC or 60 VDC and more.
All other wires can be basic-insulated(withstand voltage performance:
more than 1350 VAC). Furthermore, use “crimp-on” lugs (for 4-mm
screws) with insulation sleeves for connecting to the screw terminal.
Make sure that the crimp-on tool must be one specified by the crimp-on
lugs manufacture, and that the crimp-on lugs and tool must be matched
to the wire size. To prevent from electric shock, do not touch the
terminal after wiring and make sure to re-apply the cover.
CAUTION
• Do not apply an input voltage exceeding the following levels to each
terminal of the module. Otherwise, the internal circuits may be
damaged.
Universal, DCV/TC/DI and digital input modules
Allowable input voltage:
2 V DC range or less, RTD, TC and DI (CONT): ±10 V DC
6 to 50 V DC range, DI (LEVEL): ±60 V DC

Note
• Make sure that the equipment connected to the signal in-/output conforms IEC (CSA) 950 or IEC (CSA)
1010. Also, make sure to use cables conform IEC (CSA) standards.
• In case you are using an internal RJC in case of thermocouple input, the following considerations are
necessary to stabilize the temperature at the terminals. Always make sure to re-apply the terminal cover;
The thermal capacity of the wiring should be small (cross sectional area of less than 0.5mm2); Minimize
outside temperature fluctuations as much as possible.
• To prevent noise, make sure to ground each unit at the grounding function terminal (below the power
switch) together at one point.
• Refrain from wiring the input signals parallel. However, if you do, then the following considerations are
necessary. Ground all equipment at the same point; Do not turn the power of other equipment ON/OFF
during operation; Do not use the burnout function.
• If communication is disrupted while outputting the value of the communication input channel from the
retransmission module, the retransmission module holds the value that was output immediately before the
disruption occurred.
• After the power is turned ON or the retransmission or input channel settings are changed, it may take
apporoximately twice teh measurement interval (amount of time needed to make two measurements) for
the value of the retransmission to be stabilized.
• When a computation error or a burnout occurs, the output voltage or current will be the “+OVER” level
or the “-OVER” level depending on the Set Up mode settings.
• The maximum time that takes to search out a burnout by using the universal input module or the DCV/
TC/DI input module is 2.5 seconds. The values being output during this period from the transmission
output module are unstable if a burnout occurs.

• When the measurement channel that is retransmitting experiences the following:
The module of the corresponding measurement channel is removed from the unit.
The power of the unit to which the corresponding channel is connected is removed.
Wiring AC Input Signal Lines (Power Monitor Module)
WARNING
• For hazard prevention, ALWAYS provide protective grounding before
connecting measuring leadwires.
• When connecting any object being measured, ALWAYS turn off the
power to the object. It is extremely dangerous to connect or disconnect
interconnecting leadwires with the power to the object left on.
• Exercise utmost care to avoid connecting any current-mode circuit to a
voltage-input terminal or any voltage-mode circuit to a current-input
terminal. Wrong connection may result in damage to the circuit or
equipment being measured or the DA100 recorder itself, as well as
bodily injury.
• Fuses are not built into voltage- and current-input terminals. ALWAYS
install a fuse on the interconnecting leadwire. Use a fuse that will not
permit the voltage or current being measured to exceed the maximum
ratings of an AC input module.
The maximum voltage and current that can continuously be imposed on
an AC input module are as follows:
Voltage: 250 Vrms; current: 5 Arms
• To avoid electrical shock, ALWAYS attach the terminal cover in place
after the completion of wiring to the terminals so that the terminals
cannot be accidentally touched.
2.6 Connecting the Signal Lines
2
Installation and Wiring
CAUTION
• In wiring, use double-insulated leadwires that have sufficient
withstanding-voltage and current-carrying-capacity margins against the
voltage and current being measured and meet the ratings at which they
are used.
• ALWAYS clamp measuring leadwires with the wire clips to prevent the
wires from being disconnected from their terminals. As the measuring
leadwires, use wires 0.2 to 2.5 mm2 (AWG14 to 25) thick so they can
be fastened securely with the wire clips.
• The power monitor module is a product belonging to Installation (Overvoltage) Category CAT II.

2.7Connecting an Extension Module to Extension
Bases
Using an extension module and extension bases, you can install input modules at a location
distant from the sub-unit(s). The module and bases are powered from the sub-unit and, therefore,
can be located even in a place where there is no power source nearby.
Installing an Extension Base
WARNING
• For fire prevention, use extension bases in an upright position.
Do not cover up the extension base's module (allow a clearance of at
least 3 cm around the module).
Ambient Temperature and Humidity
Use an extension base under the following environmental conditions:
• Ambient temperature: -10˚ to 60˚C
• Ambient humidity:20 to 80% RH at -10˚ to 40˚C
10 to 50% RH at 40˚ to 50˚C
5 to 30% RH at 50˚ to 60˚C
Use the extension base in a condensation-free condition.
2
Installation and Wiring
Note
Condensation may occur if you move the extension base from an area of low humidity to an area of high
humidity or if any drastic temperature variation takes place. In addition, a measurement error will result if
the DR recorder is in the thermocouple input mode. In that case, allow at least one hour for the extension
base to adjust to the ambient atmosphere before using it.
Do not install the extension base where:
• it is exposed to direct sunlight or there is a heat source nearby;
• soot, steam, dust and/or corrosive gas is relatively abundant;
• there is a strong electromagnetic source nearby;
• there is high-voltage equipment or a power line nearby;
• it is exposed to severe and/or frequent mechanical vibration; or
• it is not positioned stably.
Desk-top or Floor Installation
Attach the two supplied shoe plates onto the extension base with two screws (4-mm screws 16
mm long, supplied as standard accessories), as shown in the figure on the left below. Then, place
the extension base in an upright position. If the base is liable to fall on its side after wiring, fix
the shoe plates with the four supplied screws (4-mm screws 12 mm long) using the through-holes
(for 4-mm screws) of the shoe plates.
Direct Mounting on Panel
According to the figure on the right below, fix the extension base onto a panel by fastening the
four corners with the supplied screws (4-mm screws 12 mm long).
IM DA100-01E
2-23
2.7 Connecting an Extension Module to Extension Bases
Connecting Extension Bases to an Extension Module
Verify that the power of the DS400/DS600 has been turned off before connecting the extension
module/extension base.
Mount the extension module onto a stand-alone model of the DA main unit or an expandable
model of the DS sub-unit. Wire the module to the extension base with an extension cable. You
can wire one extension module to one of these units. In addition, you can wire a maximum of
three extension bases at the same time to the extension module. It is not possible, however, to
wire extension bases in such a manner that the total sum of modules already mounted on the main
unit/sub-unit and the extension bases being wired exceeds the maximum number of modules (six
for the DA100 main unit, four for the DS400 sub-unit and six for the DS600 sub-unit) allowed for
mounting on the main unit/sub-unit.
Either a 10-channel universal input module (DU100-11 or DU100-12) or a 10-channel DCV/TC/
DI module (DU200-11 or DU200-12) can be mounted onto each extension base.

2.8 Connecting the Power Cord and Turning the Power ON/OFF
When Using an Adapter for Direct Wiring to the Power Supply
Before connecting the power supply to the DA100/DS400/DS600, make sure to comply with the
following warnings. Failure to do so may cause electric shock or damage to the instrument.
WARNING
• Connect the power wires only after confirming that the power supply is
OFF to prevent electric shock.
• To prevent fire, use 600V PVC insulated wire (AWG18) for power and
ground wiring (cross sectional area of 0.83 mm
galvanic corrosion finish, insulation thickness should be more than 0.8
mm, insulation resistance ahould be more than 50MΩ Km at 20°C,
approved EN60 320 (VDE0625)), or equivalent cables.
• Units equipped with screw type terminals should only be used in panel
installations. Using such a unit as a floor-installation or rack-mounting
is extremely dangerous.
• Before turning ON the power supply, always ground the protective
ground terminal. Do not use the function rounding terminal (below the
power switch) as protective grounding.
• For AC power and ground wiring, use “crimp on” lugs (for 4mm screws)
with insulation sleeves. Make sure that the crimp-on tool must be one
specified by the crimp-on lugs manufacture, and that the crimp-on lugs and tool
must be matched to the wire size.
• To prevent electric shock, do not touch the terminals after wiring.

Switching the Power ON/OFF
Pressing the “|” side of the power switch results in switching the power ON, while pressing the
“O” side results in switching the power OFF.
Note
• Before turning the power ON, verify that each unit is installed properly and that the power cord is
connected correctly.
• When the power switch is turned ON, but the status indicator doesn’t light up, turn the power off and
verify the following . If even after verification, the indicator doesn’t light up, contact your nearest
Yokogawa sales representative. Addresses may be found on the back cover of this manual.
• Verify if the power cord is connected properly.
• Verify if the power supply voltage lies within the range as specified on the previous page.
• When the power switch is turned ON, and the status indicator flashes in 1-second intervals, the
communication module is not properly connected, and you should verify this. If the status indicator
flashes in other intervals, an internal error has occurred. Turn the power switch OFF and carry out the
verification as described above. If no changes appear after after some time after having turned the power
ON again, contact your nearest Yokogawa sales representative. Addresses may be found on the back
cover of this manual.
• When several sub-units are connected, and the power is turned off/on of one of them, the other connected
sub-units which are further away from the main unit will not be recognized anymore for some time.

and its pulse width is approximately 1µs. Accordingly, thyristor noise can be defined as follows.
· thyristor noise = commercial power supply + pulse noise
Inverter
Commercial power supply is converted to direct current by a rectifier (sometimes the thyristor is
used as the rectifier to stabilize direct current) and then modulated by a switching transistor and
finally converted into alternating current at the desired frequency (from tens to hundreds of Hz) to
drive a motor, for example. If the load to be driven is a fluorescent lamp, the frequency is tens of
kHz. Accordingly, inverter noise can be defined as follows.
Inverter noise = commercial power supply + pulse noise (high density) + variable low frequency
noise
Since the density of pulse noise is high compared to that of a thyristor and in addition, there is
variable frequency noise, it is difficult to consider a countermeasure for inverter noise.

Relay
A relay is frequently used to amplify alarm and temperature controller outputs. However, since a
counter-electromotive force (counter e.m.f.) is produced by coil inductance when the relay is
turned off and the e.m.f. becomes noise, care must be taken. Due to chattering at the relay contact,
tens to hundreds of kHz noise occurs mainly in bursts. Thus, the noise energy often becomes high.
Transceiver
In large-scale plants, transceivers are often used for communications between the field and the
control room. Although W/G of the Japanese Electric Measuring Instruments Manufacturers
Association recommends to use transceivers covering a wave band of 27MHz, smaller-sized
transceivers for the 140 or 470MHz wave band are often used.
Noise Simulator
To test the immunity to pulse noise (mainly thyristor noise), a noise simulator is often used. A test
noise of approximately 1kV for 0.8 µs is used synchronously with the power supply frequency.
Since data acquisition equipment is often used for measurements of equipment subjected to the
pulse noise test, the influence of noise must be considered.
Propagation of Noise
• Noise is propagated in the following three ways.
Conduction:noise is conducted through a power line, input wiring, etc.
Electrostatic induction:noise leaks through capacitances between wires and instruments.
Electromagnetic induction:a loop in the input line, etc. induces an AC voltage by detecting the
In real applications, the above three propagation paths are not independent of each other. Their
combination propagates noise to the equipment and causes problems.
AC magnetic field.
2-30
• Examples of noise propagated through each of these paths are given below.
Conduction:inverter noise, relay noise, thyristor noise, and noise caused by
surface temperature measurement of a power transistor, etc.
Electrostatic induction:commercial power supply noise such as the hum of audio
equipment, relay noise, etc.
Electromagnetic induction:magnetic leakage flux from a power transformer or motor, magnetic
field from a high-frequency induction furnace, the rotating magnetic
field of a power generator (Cu10Ω), etc.
The figure on the next page shows the propagation paths using practical examples.

This is an unfavorable noise that is superimposed on a signal voltage. Since it is a voltage
between the H and L terminals, it is also called the line voltage, or since it is a voltage in series
with the signal voltage, it is sometimes called the series mode voltage.
2-31
2.9 Countering Noise
In the figure on the previous page, due to common mode voltage E
through the impedance to grounds Z
generation of normal mode noise E
noise is converted to normal mode noise. The amp is equipped with a built-in filter and in case of
output E
the normal mode noise will be eliminated. This rate of conversion is called the
O
common mode rejection ratio and expressed by the following equation.
·Common mode rejection ratio
Since the actual CMRR is expressed using the ratio of an error component output caused by
common mode noise to common mode noise, it contains the normal mode rejection ratio (NMRR)
expressed by the following equation.
·Normal mode rejection ratio
The NMRR is a value that shows the ability to reject the output error (normal mode noise
component: E
) by normal mode noise. Thus, this is also a very important value which shows
NM
the resistance-to-noise characteristics of the measuring instrument.
Basics of Anti-Noise Measures (part 2)
Decreasing and Increasing Impedance
As described in the previous section, conversion of common mode noise into normal mode noise
causes an error in the measured output. In other words, prevention of such a conversion is the key
to anti-noise measures. As can be understood from the previous section, it is important to take the
following measures to reduce normal mode noise.
· reduce the wiring resistances R
· increase the coupling impedance of common mode voltage E
These are called the decrease and increase of impedance as basics of anti-noise measures.
In the above discussions, anti-noise measures have been described on the assumption that
common mode noise has already been given. In real applications, common mode noise often
occurs owing to grounding resistance as shown in the figure below.

Anti-Noise Measures for the DA100
Pulse-width modulation (PWM) A/D converter
This instrument employs an in-house developed PWM A/D converter. Its two main features are:
· Superior linearity and stability achieved by the feedback effect;
· Excellent noise rejection because of the integral A/D converter.
If the integral time and noise cycle are equal, the shaded portions on the plus and minus sides
balance each other and the average value becomes zero.
Balance each other
integral value
Normally, an integral time of 20ms (50Hz) or 16.7ms (60Hz) is selected depending on the
commercial power supply frequencies. A 100-ms integral mode is added to the DA100 to achieve
superior noise rejection. However, when using the 100ms setting, the smallest measurement
interval is longer than in case of the 20ms or 16.7ms setting. The integral effect enables the PWM
A/D converter to perform the following two functions.
· Rejection of frequency determined by the reciprocal of the integral time and frequencies which
are whole multiples of that frequency;
· First-order lag filter provided with cut-off frequency proportional to the reciprocal of the integral
time.
The following table compares the integral times of 16.7ms, 20ms and 100ms.
Integral timeRejection frequencyCut-off frequencyRemarks
16.7msn×60Hzapprox. 19Hzfor 60Hz
20.0msn×50Hzapprox. 16Hzfor 50Hz
100.0msn×10Hzapprox. 3.2Hzfor both 50Hz/60Hz
n=1,2,3...
As shown in the table, the merit of 100.0-ms integration is not only that it applies to both 50 and
60Hz, but also that it provides a low cut-off frequency as the first-order lag filter and improves
the noise rejection ability.
The following figure shows the calculation values of the NMRR for three integration times and an
example of actual measurement of the NMRR for a 100-ms integral signal.

2.9 Countering Noise
• Shielded and twisted pair (prevention of electromagnetic coupling): an increase of
impedance
If it is difficult to keep the noise source away from the measuring instrument due to space
limitations, the use of a shielded twisted pair is effective.
· electrostatic coupling can be completely cut off by shielding;
· for a magnetic field, shielding with a magnetic material (iron, permalloy, etc.) can be employed.
However, there are many restrictions on this use and perfect shielding is impossible. Therefore,
use of a twisted pair is preferable.

induced by the coil is proportional to the area of the coil.

adverse effect on a high frequency.

• To prevent noise and protect the contact,

• In addition to the above measure, reduce
the rated voltage of the relay circuit as
much as possible for higher reliability.
• It is necessary to choose a diode that
matches the relay. Generally, a diode
whose rated rectifying current is at least
three times the current flowing through
the relay coil must be used.
And the rated reverse voltage must be at
least three time the operating voltage.
(Note) Across the relay or solenoid coil, a counter-electromotive force is produced by an
inductive load. This phenomenon may damage the contact or, as the noise source,
cause a malfunctioning of the equipment, and have an unfavorable effect on the

3.4About Maintenance and Calibration
Since the DA100 Acquisition Unit (hereafter referred to as DA100) has no parts which are subject
to wear, periodical replacement of parts is not necessary. However, we recommend to inspect the
operation conditions periodically.
About Fuse Replacement
Although the DA100 is equipped with a built-in fuse, replacement of a blown fuse may not be
carried out by the customer himself. For replacement of the fuse, contact your nearest sales
representative. Addresses may be found on the back cover of this manual.
About Calibration
We recommend to calibrate the DA100, as described below, at least once a year to assure the
measurement accuracy.

Information on and Process in Case of Power Failure
• The DR recorder adds × to the time on a printout provided upon recovery from a power failure.
It does not print the character, however, if it has been more than 12 hours since the power
failure occurred.
• The DR recorder excludes data occurring during a power failure from its reports.
• If the DR recorder recovers from a power failure after the time to make a report, it makes a
report immediately after the recovery.
• If a power failure time is longer than 12 hours, the DR recorder stops report making even if the
power is restored.
The recorder prints a report (for data acquired up to the power failure), however, immediately
after it recovers from the power failure.

Measuring Ranges
Voltage: 25 or 250 Vrms
Current: 0.5 or 5 A
In three-phase measurement or single-phase three-wire measurement, the current/voltage ranges
are identical between the respective phases or lines (the current/voltage ranges are set in common
between the respective channels).
For each module, a maximum of six data items can be selected from the effective voltage,
effective current, active power, apparent power, reactive power, frequency, power factor and
phase angle. The selected data items can then be assigned to channel numbers xx1 to xx6 to show
them on the display as well as record them. Restrictions apply to the combination of selectable
data items, however, depending on the method of input wiring.
Conditions of Measurement
• Measuring range for current and voltage inputs
10% of the measuring range < current and voltage inputs ≤ 100% of the measuring range
• V1 range is monitored in frequency measurement
• All measurements are done relative to the frequency on a channel for V1 and, therefore, the
results of measurements are not guaranteed if the V1 input is out of the range noted above.
• If the input apparent power falls below 10% of the span, the DR recorder cannot measure the
phase and power factor (negative overflow).
• A maximum of two scans' worth of data become invalid immediately after a change has been
made to the measuring range and/or wiring.
