Connections; Connecting A Probe To The Data Processor - Konica Minolta CA-410 Instruction Manual

Connections

1. Connecting a Probe to the Data Processor

Before setting the POWER switch to ON, connect a probe to a probe connector.
• A probe can be connected with an USB cable or an RS cable.
• For RS-232C connection, connect the mini DIN plug of the Probe-DP RS cable IF-A30 (or IF-A31 or IF-A32) supplied
with the data processor to the RS-232C connector of the probe and the probe RS-232C connector of the CA-DP40 data
processor.
• For USB connection, connect the USB mini B plug of the supplied USB cable IF-A28 to the USB connector of the probe.
Connect the USB plug on the other side of the cable to the probe USB connector of the CA-DP40 data processor.
How to Connect
1
Set the POWER switch to OFF.
2
Connect the probe's plug into a probe
connector on the instrument.
3
Check that the plug is inserted all the
way and connected firmly.
• When disconnecting the probe, set the POWER
switch to OFF first, and pull the probe by holding
the plug. Never pull the cable by its cord.
Notes on Connecting Probes
• Never connect or remove a probe while the POWER switch is ON ( | ).
• When connecting/disconnecting a probe, always hold the plug to connect/disconnect it. In addition, do not pull or bend
the cord excessively or exert excessive force on it. Doing so may cause the cable or cord to break.
• The luminance range will vary according to the type of probe.
• Use either RS-232C or USB to connect a probe. Using both for connection will cause an error.
• For each probe, 5 V/300 mA power is required. It is recommended that the AC adapter be used as necessary. It is also
recommended that probes be disconnected when not in use.
Eight types of probes can be connected. (P. 12)
Up to 10 probes can be connected simultaneously. Because the type of display to be measured and the measuring
luminance range of the probe vary according to the type, please install one that is fit for use. Also, different types can
coexist. Keep caps on probe connectors not in use.
IF-A30 (or IF-A31 or IF-A32): For mini DIN plug
connection
IF-A28 cable: For USB connection
