Introduction

Thank you for purchasing our XL100 Portable Data Station/Portable Data

Logger.

This Quick Setup Manual briefly describes the key operations as well as setting

examples of the XL100 upon actual measurement, so that you can operate the

XL100 for the first time.

In addition to this manual, the User’s Manual and Communication Function

Manual contained in the CD-ROM are available separately. The User’s Manual

provides detailed information regarding all of the functions and operations of the

XL100 excluding the communication functions. The Communication Function

Manual provides information necessary for using communication functions and

creating communication programs. Use them together with this Quick Setup

Manual. The Communication Function Manual is available only for the Portable

Data Station.

After reading this manual, keep it in an easily accessible place for later

reference. This manual will come in handy when you are unsure of how to

operate the product.

5. Introduction of the Main Functions

Input Type and Calculation

As shown in the table below, the available input types are analog input, which includes DC voltage, thermocouple, and RTD, and other inputs, which consist of pulse signal (1 channel) and logic signals (2 channels). In addition, the arithmetic calculations between two inputs can be performed and assigned to a calculation channel and displayed in the same fashion as measured values. The statistics of measured values can also be displayed. For details on the input settings, see chapter 5, “Setting the Input Channels.” For details on calculation, see chapter 8, “Setting the Calculation of Measured Data.”

Input/Calculation Description

DC voltage Measures a DC voltage in the range of ±100 mV to ±50 V.

5. Introduction of the Main Functions

Alarm Function

Generates an alarm when the measured/calculated value meets a certain

condition. When an alarm occurs, information notifying the alarm occurrence is

displayed on the screen. In addition, an alarm signal can be delivered from the

output terminal (digital I/O connector) on the rear panel of the XL100 by

connecting a digital I/O cable (option). You can select the alarm conditions from

the following table.

5. Introduction of the Main Functions

Saving Data

Measured data, calculated data, setting data, and so forth can be saved to the XL100 internal memory or an external storage medium (CF card or SD card) that is inserted in the XL100.

Save the data

Supported only on the

XL121, XL122, and XL124

TIP

The XL100 is equipped with a USB port for USB memories. However, data cannot be saved directly to a USB memory (see section 3.9 in the User’s Manual).

The types of data that can be saved are as follows:

Type Description

Logging data The instantaneous values of the measured/calculated data

can be saved at a specified sampling interval. The data save operation is started or stopped with the START/STOP key. The save operation can also be started or stopped when a specific event (see “Trigger” on the next page) occurs. The logging data contains alarm information.

Manual sampled data The measured/calculated data (instantaneous values) of all

channels can be saved by pressing the SAVE key in Free Running Mode.

Alarm data The same information as the alarm summary display can be

saved by pressing the SAVE key during alarm summary display.

Screen image data The image data of the screen being displayed can be saved

by pressing the SAVE key in Free Running Mode, etc.

Setting data The setting data of the XL100 can be saved in File Operation

Mode.

Log data The same information as the log display can be saved by

pressing the SAVE key during log data display.

internal memory or external storage medium (CF card or SD card), the data is saved to the backup memory of the XL100. The saved data can be copied to an external storage medium.

5. Introduction of the Main Functions

Triggers

In addition to using the START/STOP key to start or stop the logging, a trigger for starting (or stopping) the save operation of the logging data (measured/ calculated data) can be configured for automatic operation. The trigger for logging can be selected from the list below and configured.

Serial Communication

The USB interface or serial interface can be used to change the XL100 settings from a PC or retrieve data into the PC through command communication. In addition, Modbus communication is possible on the serial interface. The Modbus master function enables the measured data of a measuring instrument connected as a Modbus slave to be retrieved as communication input data. The data can be assigned to a communication channel and displayed on the XL100 in a similar fashion to measurement and calculation channels.

6. Operation Mode and Basic Key Operations

Operation Modes and Switching the Operation Mode

As shown in the figure below, the XL100 has six operation modes: (1) Free

Running Mode in which instantaneous values are measured, (2) Logging Mode

in which continuous measurement is performed while saving data, (3) Logging

& Review Mode in which past measured data can be viewed while the logging

operation is in progress, (4) Review Mode in which saved data is analyzed, (5)

File Operation Mode in which file operations such as saving and loading of the

setup data is performed, and (6) Setting Mode in which various settings such as

the measurement conditions are specified. The keys in the figure below are

used to switch between these modes.

7. Signal Wiring

Signal Input Wiring (for Clamp Screws)

Be sure to also read the precautions in section 3.3, “Wiring the Input Signal

Cable” in the User’s Manual when wiring cables.

CAUTION

Do not apply an input exceeding the following values. Otherwise, the XL100 may break down.

• Maximum input voltage

100 mV, 500 mV, and 1 V range and TC input: ±10 VDC

5 V, 10 V, 50 V, and 1-5V/f.s. range: ±60 VDC

• Maximum common mode noise voltage

30 VACrms (50/60 Hz) or ±60 VDC

Wiring Procedure

1. Open the terminal cover of the terminal block unit.

2. Wire the input signal cables to the input terminals.

As shown below, loosen the terminal screws using the screwdriver provided,

insert the signal wires, and fasten the terminal screws.

3. Close the terminal cover of the terminal block unit.

8. Connecting to the Power Supply and Turning the Power Switch ON/OFF

Language Setting at Startup

When you start up the XL100 for the first time (the first time you turn on the

XL100 after purchase), you must set the language that you are going to use.

Follow the procedure below to set the language.

Once you set the language, the XL100 will start up using the specified language

the next time.

Check whether the displayed values are correct. If the measured values are not

correct, switch back to Setting Mode, and check that the input settings are

correct. If the measured values are not correct even though the input settings

are correct, see chapter 14, “Troubleshooting.”

If the CF Card icon is gray, the save destination is not set to the CF card.

12. Inserting an External Storage Medium and Saving Data

Inserting an External Storage Medium

CF cards (Type II) and SD cards can be used on the XL100 as external storage

media.

For the handling precautions of the external storage media, the estimated

amount of stored data, and other information, see section 4.7, “Inserting and

Removing the External Storage Media” in the User’s Manual.

You can also assign an arbitrary file name. For the procedure to assign an arbitrary file name, see section 9.1, “Setting the Save Operation of Measured and Calculated Data” in the User’s Manual.

• The measured/calculated data (instantaneous values) can be saved by pressing SAVE in Free Running Mode. For the procedure to save the data manually, see section 9.3, “Manually Saving Measured and Calculated Data” in the User’s Manual.

• The saved data file can be renamed, deleted, or copied to another external storage medium in File Operation Mode. For these operations, see sections 9.7 to 9.9 in the User’s Manual.

• If the data fails to be written to the save destination for some reason, the data is saved to the backup memory. For details on the backup memory, see section 9.1, “Manually Saving Measured and Calculated Data” in the User’s Manual.
