Thank you for purchasing the SMARTDAC+ Series GX10/GX20/GP10/GP20/GM10
(hereafter referred to as the recorder, GX, GP, or GM).
This manual explains the WT communication function of the GX, GP, and GM.
Although the display of GX20 is used in this manual, GX10/GP10/GP20 can be
operated similarly. Moreover, for the GM10, the same content can be displayed on a
Web browser.
In this manual, the GX20, GP20, and GM10 standard type and large memory type are
distinguished using the following notations.
• Standard type: GX20-1/GP20-1/GM10-1
• Large memory type: GX20-2/GP20-2/GM10-2
For details on the features of the recorder and how to use it, read this manual together with
the following user’s manuals.

Using the WT Communication (/E2 option)
Overview
The WT communication function collects values measured and computed on WT power
meters and analyzers made by Yokogawa Meters & Instruments Corporation using Ethernet
communication into the recorder.
The collected data can be assigned to communication channels (/MC option) and displayed
and recorded simultaneously with the measured data of the recorder.

Refer to “Data group name and data name”.
Note
Data group names can be specified regardless of the number of WT elements to be connected
or options. If data is read from elements or options that are not installed in the target WT, it will
become NaN (Not a Number) data.
If the data group name is set to OFF, communication data will not be updated and will hold the

Communication Channels, Recording Settings, and Display Settings”.
Data name
Set the data name of measurement function to collect.
Refer to “Data group name and data name”.
Exponential scaling
Set the exponent used to exponentially scale the data read from the WT using base 10.
For example, if the measured value of the WT is 123.45 kW and you specify -3, the data will
be scaled by 10-3 to derive data in unit of kW.

Valid Data Groups Based on the WT Specifications
Data group names can be specified regardless of the number of WT elements to be
connected or options. If data is read from elements or options that are not installed in the
target WT, it will become NaN (Not a Number) data.
The following table shows the valid group names depending on the number of WT elements
and option specifications.
• Data is collected from all specified WTs.
WT data that cannot keep up with the read cycle will take on the previous value. In this
situation, a data dropout icon appears in the status display. ( See page 14 , “Monitoring
the WT Collection Status”)
• If data cannot be collected from a WT, the previous value will be held. For the detailed
operation, see “Watchdog Timer” under “Other Settings” in page 13 , “Configuring
Communication Channels, Recording Settings, and Display Settings”.
• If multiple functions are assigned to a single communication channel, the function with the
largest assignment number takes precedence.
In addition, if data input through another communication protocol, such as Modbus client
or master, uses the same channel, the channel will take on values that are retrieved
according to the communication protocol’s data update interval.
Do not assign input from other communication protocols, such as Modbus communication
or general communication, to communication channels that WT data is assigned to.

Configuring Communication Channels, Recording
Settings, and Display Settings
Communication channel settings
Set the communication channel to assign the data collected from the WT to.
See section 1.20, “Setting Communication Channels (/MC option),” in the User’s Manual
(IM 04L51B01-01EN) or section 2.21, “Setting Communication Channels (/MC option),” in
the User’s Manual (IM 04L55B01-01EN).
Recording settings
Assign communication channels to recording channels.
