  • Page 8: Outline Of The Product

    1. OUTLINE OF THE PRODUCT 1-1 OUTLINE OF THE DPM-42A (-1/-F/-F1) Card • The DPM-42A(-1/-F/-F1) is designed to be used for strain gage and strain gage transducer by installing in the EDX-2000A. • Carrier wave of approximately 12 kHz is used for bridge excitation voltage.
  • Page 9: Precautions For Using Dpm-42A(-1/-F/-F1)

    1-3 PRECAUTIONS FOR USING DPM-42A(-1/-F/-F1) • Although the DPM-card is correctly installed in the slot of the EDX-2000A, if “DISABLE” or “UNKNOWN” is displayed as the “Card Type” on the system menu screen, it is required to update the EDX-2000A hardware.
