NOTE When using a voltage and strain sensor input signals together in the same CDV-40B card, a cross talk may generate and display a waveform different from a sensor input waveform on the strain sensor connected channel. [The worst case] If the worst comes to the strain sensor input channel with the following conditions, a cross talk of 120 μm/m may generate.
Common Common 【Note】The signal common is used in common for bits 1 to 32, and is insulated from the casing and the power supply of the EDX-3000A. NOTE (*) The pin No. 17 is reserved pin. Do not connect anything.
After connecting the sensor, turn ON (“|”) the MAIN POWER switch on the rear panel of the EDX-3000A. Then press the POWER switch on the front panel for 2 seconds to activate the EDX-3000A. For details of the conditioner settings and measuring condition settings, see the Instruction Manual for Software.
4-2-1 External Trigger “TRG IN” “TRG OUT” The EDX-3000A starts recording by inputting the external trigger input signal to the “TRG IN.” In addition, the EDX-3000A can supply the external trigger output signal from the “TRG OUT” to the external device.
If a pulse signal supplied from the external device such as oscillator is input as the external clock input signal to the “CLK IN,” the pulse signal can be used as the sampling clock of the EDX-3000A. In addition, the EDX-3000A can supply the sampling clock of the EDX-3000A as the external clock output signal from the “CLK OUT”...

● Input a fixed clock (frequency does not change) to the external clock supplying to the EDX. ● It is necessary to supply the external clock while the EDX-3000A is measuring data. The EDX-3000A cannot start measuring data if the external clock is not supplied.
In addition, starting time and ending time of the READY signal delay for approx. 0.5 to 3 seconds than the “starting time” or “ending time” of the EDX-3000A. This amount of delay varies with the setting value of the trigger delay amount, size of the recording data, and CPU usage rage of the EDX-3000A.

4-5 TURNING OFF THE EDX-3000A After the measurement, press the POWER switch of the EDX-3000A for 2 seconds for turning OFF the EDX-3000A. The EDX-3000A automatically shuts off. After the shutdown finishes, turn OFF (“○”) the MAIN POWER switch on the rear panel.
3 minutes if the built-in battery becomes old or is not fully charged. Therefore, avoid using the EDX-3000A under conditions in which the power supply may be lost at any time. Contact KYOWA or our representatives when the built-in battery expired.
The MAIN POWER switch on the rear panel is ON (“|”). When the EDX-3000A is in the state a) or b) even if it is turned OFF, built-in battery is automatically charged and the CHARGE LED lights up in green. In addition, the charging is automatically finished after fully charged and the CHARGE LED flashes green.
Always turn OFF the EDX-3000A before connecting the remote control unit RCU-42A. MEMO The remote controller incorporates a buzzer which emits same alarm of the EDX-3000A. You can hear the alarm from the remote controller even if it is difficult to hear from the EDX-3000A.

7. TROUBLESHOOTING If the EDX-3000A does not operate as expected or in a stable manner, examine the facts that may be causing such a condition before concluding that the system has failed. Items to be checked and countermeasures for various symptoms are described below.
・When using the strain gage, noise may be reduced by connecting the GND terminal of the EDX-3000A and the test specimen to which the strain gage is attached. See “3-3 CONNECTING SENSOR.” ・Is there an inverter motor, machining equipment, welder or AC power supply for power systems placed near the input cable for the EDX-3000A? If so, move the input cable apart from the power source.
∙ Did you turn ON/OFF the EDX-3000A units in the correct order when synchronous operating them? Turn OFF the all EDX-3000A units, wait approx. 2 hours and turn ON the power again by referring to “4-3 SYNCHRONOUS OPERATION” and “4-4 ONLINE CONTROL.”...
The card is correctly replaced when you see the target CH LED applicable to the changed slot is lightning. The CH LED is OFF even after setting the measuring conditions when the EDX-3000A is not operate correctly. At this time, remove the card and reinsert the conditioner card once again.
