This Instruction Manual describes details of CCA-40A/CCA-40A-F Charge Amplifier Card (hereinafter referred to as the CCA card, unless otherwise specified) for EDX-2000A Memory Recorder/Analyzer (hereinafter referred to as the EDX-2000A). Model Antialising Filter Function CCA-40A None CCA-40A-F Provided ACCESSORIES STANDARD The following accessories are packed in the CCA card.
PRIOR TO USE For safe use of the CCA card, be sure to read the following precautions. KYOWA ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENTS CO., LTD. assumes no liability for any damages resulting from the user’s failure to comply with the safety precautions. SAFETY SYMBOLS For safety operation of the CCA card, the following “WARNING”...
NOTATIONS USED IN THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL Informational Notes Certain notations are used as necessary to attract your attention to information that requires special care when handing the CCA card and to information provided for reference purposes. Examples of Notations NOTE Essential precautions required when handling the CCA card.
1-1 OUTLINE OF THE CCA-40A Features of the CCA-40A are described in the following. • The CCA-40A card is a charge amplifier card for a piezoelectric accelerometer (voltage output type). • Capable of 8-CH measurement with 1 card. • Monitor output of CHs is ±5 V with ± full scale of each range.
“UNKNOWN” is displayed as the “Card Type" on the system menu screen, it is required to update the EDX-2000A hardware. Contact KYOWA or our representative for updating the EDX-2000A hardware. • After the power ON, the CCA card requires a certain time to become stable.

[Connection Method] CCA Input Cable: U-111 (Accessory) Input connector Sensor side connector Insulation cover To connect, hold the plug case, push it into the slot, and then, tightly fasten with screws. To disconnect, unfasten the screws, push in the above portions of item 1) and hold the plug case and pull. Input connector: ........
(shell portion of a coaxial connector) of the sensor output and the EDX-2000A GND terminal with a tester, etc. Then, connect the sensor to the CCA-40A. If the sensor resistance is less than 5 MΩ, check insulation between the sensor and test target and set it to have more than 5 MΩ.

NOTE The CCA card is equipped with sensor power supply (Constant current source: 4 mA, Applied voltage: Approx. 24 VDC) Take care and always connect appropriate sensors conforming to the specifications or, sensor failure may result in. In addition, take special care that the BNC connector shell of the input cable is applied with voltage of approximately -12 VDC.

To disconnect, unfasten the screws and pull out front the plug case. Monitor output connector: Model XM3B-0942-132L (OMRON made) Centralized output cable U-62:...
2) After replacing the conditioner card, power ON the CCA-40As are installed in EDX-2000A and check the startup screen. If the “Card slots 1 and 2. Type” CCA-40A is displayed on the “Slot No.” column, it means that the conditioner card is properly replaced. Slot No. Card Type If “DISABLE”...
2. HOW TO SET CCA-40A How to set the CCA card is conducted entirely from the EDX-2000A screen. Settings and measurement of the CCA card are conducted in due order as described in the following table. EDX-2000A Initial Screen ↓...

Examples of setting range is described in the following: When the accelerometer sensitivity = 10.20 [mV/m/S ] (100 mV/G, 1 G=9.80665 m/S ) and estimated maximum acceleration = 147.1 [m/S ] (15 G), the estimated maximum input voltage shall be obtained by the following expression.
Page 24
Sampling frequency range usable for the antialising filter is 100 Hz or more. Although the card type is CCA-40A-F, if “AUTO” is not displayed on the “Low Pass Filter” setting window, check whether or not the sampling frequency is set to less than 100 Hz.

NOTE When the CCA card power is ON, when the input connector is disconnected, when the sensor is removed, measuring range is changed, or when excess signal is entered, the output voltage may largely varies. But it is not faulty. Although the time required until the output voltage becomes stable varies according to sensors in use or CCA card measuring range, the output voltage becomes stable in approximately 20 to 40 seconds.
