PRIOR TO USE For safe use of the CDA-44AS/45AS, do not forget to read the "Safety Precautions" prior to use. KYOWA ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENTS CO., LTD. assumes no liability for any damage resulting from the user's failure to comply with the safety precautions.
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 CDA-44AS/45AS, and to information provided for reference purposes. Examples of Notations NOTE Describes essential instructions when handling the CDA-44AS/45AS.
1 OUTLINE OF PRODUCT 1.1 OUTLINE OF CDA-44AS/45AS ・ The CDA-44AS/45AS is a signal conditioner card for a strain gage, strain gage transducer, and voltage output type sensor. ・ The CDA-44AS/45AS is isolated between input and case (output) as well as between channels.
1.2 PARTS NAMES & FUNCTIONS (A) Input connector 1 Input connector of the 1st channel (B) Input connector 2 Input connector of the 2nd channel (C) Input connector 3 Input connector of the 3rd channel (D)Input connector 4 Input connector of the 4th channel (E) Monitor output connector Monitor output connector Monitor voltage is ±5 V with full scale of each range.
+ Bridge Excitation Voltage - Input - Bridge Excitation Voltage + Input ACOM ID signal + Channel No. of the input connector shall be as follows according to slot into which the CDA-44AS/45AS is installed in the EDX-100A/EDX-2000A/EDX-3000A. Slot Input connector CH17 CH25...
After inserting the CDA-44AS, turn ON the power switch and confirm the startup screen by referring the "DCS-100A Instruction Manual for EDX-100A." If the "Card Type" is displayed in the Slot No. column, the card is correctly installed.
When one end of the strain gage transducer is equipped with no plug, there are 2 ways for connecting the strain gage transducer to the CDA-44AS/45AS. One is to connect conductors to a plug in advance and the other is to connect by using a bridge box.

NOTE ● The F terminal of each channel input for the CDA-44AS/45AS is intended for sensor ID signals. Connecting any other signal to this terminal may prevent the EDX-100A/EDX-2000A/EDX-3000A from recognizing all conditioners installed in the system. If the EDX-100A/EDX-2000A/EDX-3000A does not recognize the conditioners, the startup screen will display "UNKNOWN"...
