1.2 Installation
NOTE!
The plug of the power supply unit (charger) is used as a separator.
This separator must be clearly recognisable and easily accessible by the user. A
plug connector with a CEE7/7 system is necessary.
NOTE!
Only the supplied power supply may be used.
1.3 Lithium Ion Battery
Warning!
Battery!
The replacement of the battery must only be carried out by authorised and
skilled personnel, and when the device is de-energised.
Only the original battery of the manufacturer with built-in protection circuit
may be used
Do not use any other power supply for charging the Li-Ion battery as the provided.
Do not charge the battery under conditions that are not specified in the manual.
Do not charge the battery in an environment with flammable substances. Never charge the
battery unattended.
Transport
The contained lithium ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements. The user
can transport the batteries by road without further requirements.
When being transported by third parties (e.g.: air transport or forwarding agency), special requirements on
packaging and labelling must be observed. For preparation of the item being shipped, consulting an expert
for hazardous material is required.
Please also observe possibly more detailed national regulations.
Disposal
The datalogger, rechargeable batteries, accessories and packaging should be sorted for
environmental friendly recycling.
Do not dispose of power tools and batteries/rechargeable batteries into household waste!
Only for EC countries:
According to the European Guideline 2012/19/EU, power tools that are no longer
usable, and according to the European Guideline 2006/66/EC, defective or used
battery packs/batteries, must be collected separately and disposed of in an environmentally
correct manner.
Batteries no longer suitable for use can be directly returned at:

Application area
DS 400 mobile V1.29 Seite 8von 109
2 Application area
Our long-term hands-on experience in measurement and control technology was implemented in the
new DS 400.
From recording of the measured data, automatic sensor identification, indication on a big colour
screen, alerting, storage up to remote read-out via web server, all that is possible with DS 400. By
means of the CS-Soft, software alarms can be sent via SMS or e-mail.
On the big 3.5' colour screen with touch panel all information is available at a glance.
The operation is very easy. All measured values, measured curves and threshold exceeding’s are
indicated. The progression of the curve, since the beginning of the measurement, can be viewed by
an easy slide of the finger.
The huge difference to ordinary paperless chart recorders reveals in the easy initiation as well as in
the evaluation of the measured data. All sensors are identified directly and powered by DS 400.
Everything is matched and tuned.

Versatile:
Up to 4 sensors, incl. all CS sensors
(consumption, dew point, pressure,
current, KTY, PT 100, PT 1000) are
identified automatically by DS 400.
Optional analogue sensors (0/4 - 20
mA, 0 - 1/10/30 V, pulse) can be
configured easily and quickly. Digital
sensors can be connected via
RS 485, Modbus RTU and SDI.
Flexible:
Network-compatible and
worldwide remote data
transmission via Ethernet,
integrated web server.
Alarm relay / fault indication:
Up to 4 threshold values can be configured freely. Collective alarms are possible.
Remark:
Alarm relays are available with DS400, not accessible at DS 400 mobile.

Intended use
DS 400 mobile V1.29 Seite 9von 109
3 Intended use
The DS 400 data logger serves for the stationary measured data acquisition and storage of analogue
and digital input signals.
The DS 400 data logger is exclusively designed and constructed for the proper application purpose that
is described herein and must only be used correspondingly.
A check in order to ascertain whether or not the device is suitable for the chosen employment must be
carried out by the user. It must be ensured that the medium is compatible with the components which
come into contact with it. The technical data listed in the data sheet are binding.
Improper handling or operation outside the technical specifications is impermissible. Claims of any kind
on the basis of improper use are excluded.

8 Connect the DS 400 with a PC
Important:
The IP addresses of PC and DS 400 must be statically assigned (DHCP off) and have to be
in the same network.
If the IP-address of the DS 400 has changed, you have to reboot!
Remark:
IP-address of the DS 400: See chapter, 9.3.3.3 Network-Settings
Reboot the DS 400: See chapter,9.3.3.6.6 Factory-Reset
The DS 400 can be connected with the PC by a crossover cable, which has a RJ45 plug on each side,
or an Ethernet cable with a crossover adapter.
Crossover-Cable with RJ45-plug
After connecting the DS 400 via a suitable cable to the PC, you can make graphical and tabular data
evaluations with the CS Soft Basic software.

Operation DS 400 / Main menu (Home)
DS 400 mobile V1.29 Seite 19 von 109
9 Operation DS 400
The operation is largely self-explanatory and menu-driven via the touch panel.
The selection of the respective menu items occur via short "tapping" with the finger or a soft round pen.
Attention: Please use no pens or other objects with sharp edges!
The foil can be damaged!
After sensors are connected, they also have to be configured.
Inputs or changes can be made with all white deposit fields.
The measured values can be represented as a curve or values.
Words in green font refer mainly to the pictures in the section of the chapter, but also on important menu
paths or menu items that are related to be in green font.
The menu navigation is generally in a green font!
The table of contents and chapter references in blue font contain links to the respective chapter title.
9.1 Switching on / off of the DS400 mobile
To switch on / off the DS400 mobile you have to press ( >= 3sec) the on / off knob.
A short press of the on / off knob during operation opens a popup with indication of the remaining
operation time.
9.2 Main menu (Home)
From the main menu, you can reach every available item.
9.2.1 Initialization
Please see chapter 9.3.2 Sensor Settings then select appropriate configurations and set!
After switching on the DS 400 all channels
are initialized and the main menu will
appear.
Attention:
For the first initiation, there may be no
channels preset!
