Hardware installation
CAUTION!
fThe host system should be switched off before doing the following.
fModifications to the connections should only be made with the system switched off.
fEMC hints have to be regarded, see chapter "EMC" later on.
CAUTION!
Before you start with the hardware installation take care that there is no static electrical discharge
on the DD-Logger or on any other system component. Discharge yourself by touching a grounded
object before you remove the DD-Logger from its package. Be always sure that you do no touch any
component before you are well discharged.

DD-Logger external
. The power supply to the DD-Logger is provided using one of the supplied keyboard adapters (either USB or
PS/ connector).
. Plug the round barrel connector into the socket provided on the rear of the DD-Logger.
. Connect the adapter between the PC and the keyboard. The adapter may also be connected to the mouse
connector.
NOTE!
i
If the DD-Logger is to be operated using an external power supply, a suitable power supply must be
obtained.
. Connect the serial interface of DD-Logger (DSUB) with your computer's serial interface.

. Switch off your computer and all external peripherals. Unplug your computer from its power source.
. Remove your computer's cover. Follow the directions provided by your computer manufacturer.
. Mount the DD-Logger in a free ," bay. Use only the screws delivered with the DD-Logger.
NOTE!
i
If the DD-Logger is used in a ¼" bay, you can obtain a suitable mounting frame from CSM GmbH.
. Plug one of the free power connectors from your computer's power supply into the DCIN plug of the DD-Logger.
NOTE!
i
In most computers you will find a power connector that is ready for use.
. Connect the serial interface of DD-Logger with your computer's serial interface.
. Close the cover.

CAUTION!
Shield, signal GND and case GND are connected internally to GND of the power supply. Therefore it
must be guaranteed that the inner contact of the walkman - plug is sufficiently isolated to prevent
a short circuit between  V and the case GND.

EMC
CSM GmbH explains, that the DD-Logger is in compliance with the requirements of the European EMC-
Directive 2014/30/EU. See connection, installation and operation hints below.
Connection and installation hints for operation:
fShielded cables must be used for the signal line outside of a shielded cabinet.
fWhen leading your signal line into a shielded cabinet, make a electric contact with a large surface area from
cable shield to the cabinet shield directly at the opening of the cabinet where you lead your cable in.
fDD-Logger PCB, DD-Logger ½" and DD-Logger " should be installed in a EMI-shielded cabinet.
fWhile installing the device, make a electric contact with a large surface area from the cabinet shield to the
case of DD-Logger ,", to the front of DD-Logger ", to the fixing holes of the DD-Logger PCB, respectively.
CAUTION!
Shield, case and fixing holes are connected directly to the negative line (GND) of power supply.
Operation hints
CAUTION!
Avoid electrostatic discharge at the PC-Card, while there is data access. Touch first the metallic case
and afterwards the PC-Card.
