3.5 System Reconstruction/Scan/Initialization
Before starting measurement data collection make sure that units and modules of the
DA100/DC100/DR are correctly connected. Check it again if a communication failure
occurs.
Before System Reconstruction/Scan
Before starting system reconstructing and scanning please check the following:
Power supply:
• Verify that the power supply matches the requirements.
• Verify that the power supply is properly connected.
Status indicator (for DA100 only):
• Verify that the status indicator is lighting. (An internal error has occurred if the status
indicator is ashing.)
Unit/Modules
• Verify that the environmental conditions match the requirements.
• Are all screws surely fastened?
• Are the right amount of modules in the right place?
• Verify that the number of connected modules and their locations are conform the
specications.
Communication Interface
• Verify that the communication interface cable is properly connected.
• Verify that the location of the communication module is correct (as it cannot be
connected to a sub-unit).
• When using the GP-IB module, verify that the address setting is correct.
• When communicating by GP-IB interface, verify that the GP-IB driver has been
installed.
•
In case RS-232-C, RS-422-A/RS-485 modules are installed, are the communication
settings correct?
• In case the Ethernet module is installed, are the network settings correct? Is TCP/IP
protocol installed?
Note
If you use your DC100, or DR for the first time after purchasing it, make sure to first configure
the instrument system, before communicating with this software.
System Reconstruction
If the connected DA100/DC100/DR is being used for the first time, or if any changes
occurred to the system, connected units or installed modules, it is necessary to carry out
the following steps to reconstruct the system.
