1User information
This quick manual describes how to configure and operate X2E’s probe
devices (XORAYA µT-Z7 and XORAYA Probe) with the XORAYASuite. Below, the
name probe is used uniformly for one of these devices.
For extensive information about the Z7 product family, please refer to the
instruction manuals of either the XORAYA Z7 or the Minilogger Z7. Especially
the safety instructions and warning texts also apply to the devices in this
manual.

Interface and network connection:
Connect all data buses to be monitored to the log interface (H).
Connect one of the probe’s LAN host ports (F) to a datalogger, for
example a XORAYA Z7.
Connect one of the datalogger’s other LAN host ports to a switch or
directly to a PC.
The datalogger is now set up as sink for the probe. It controls the
probe and receives its log data.
Power supply connection (please note the correct sequence):
Connect the provided power cable to port (A) on the probe.
Tighten the connector screws.
Connect the black plug of the cable to 0 V or ground.
Connect the red plug to the power supply.
Connect the datalogger/sink in the same sequence to the power
supply.
Probe and sink are fully connected.
Once the supply voltage is established, the devices turn on and display their
operational status via the power button LED (B).
Cascading
You can extend the setup described above by connecting
the second LAN host port (F) to another probe. This way,
multiple devices are linked.
In addition to that, you can connect multiple probes
directly to the sink.

3XORAYASuite
This chapter describes the characteristic features for the configuration and
operation of the probe. For a detailed description of all XORAYASuite tools,
refer to the datalogger instruction manuals.
3.1 Connecting
Connect the probe to sink and PC. (Commissioning)
Turn on probe and sink.
Start the desired XORAYASuite tool.
Click Display available loggers (1) to start scanning for devices.
Select the desired probe using the assigned name.
Click Establish connection to logger (2).
The probe is connected to the XORAYASuite.
3.2 Configuration
Because probe and sink have to be configured accordingly, open the
configuration tool twice simultaneously or do one configuration after the
other. Select the category DLN (Distributed Logging Network) in the system
settings.
Other system settings and configuration of the interfaces are the same as
for XORAYA dataloggers.

3.2.1 Sink
Enable the DLN function.
Do not change the Device ID.
The ID is used when recording to match the data with a device. The
sink is always 0.
Select the Modeof the sink: Master.
Select the Protocol: X2E internal.
PLP (Probe Logger Protocol) is currently not yet supported.
Optionally, set a VLan Id.

QUICK MANUAL

PTP settings: For time synchronisation, set a Domain that is unique for
sinks in this network to avoid conflicts.
For the Interface setting, there are currently no options available.
Set a Port (3).
When choosing a port number, avoid conflicts with network
services used by the operating system.
Alternative network settings
Because the sink address may be assigned dynamically, it
is possible to set a network address (1) and a subnet
mask (2) in addition to the port (3). These static settings
apply to the DLN communication with the linked probes
and can be entered there as Target.
Optionally, enable Synchronize logging state.
If enabled, log start and log stop of the sink automatically trigger
log start and log stop of the linked probes.

3.2.2 Probe
Set a custom Device ID (except 0).
Select the Protocol: X2E internal.
As Target, set the network address and port of the sink.
If a static network connection for the DLN communication is
explicitly set in the sink, then enter this address (category DLN).
If not, then the statically or dynamically assigned address of the
sink is used (category Network).
Optionally, set a VLan Id.
PTP settings: Set the same Domain as for the sink.
If you link another probe, set the port (3) for the connection and
optionally static network address (1) and subnet mask (2).
Optionally, enable Synchronize logging state.
When connected to the sink, the Data LED on the probe is lit.
Quick configuration
Alternatively, use the Distributed Logging Network button
to select a sink in the network, and the relevant settings
are applied.

3.3 Data recording
By default, the probe transfers the recorded log data to the sink, where all
data of the current measurement received from all connected devices is
collected. The data is then either transferred to the PC or directly saved on
the storage medium of the sink.
The device ID set in the DLN configuration serves as an identifier for the
source of the log data.
3.3.1 Sink
Connect to the sink.
Click Start online logging (1) to download the data to the connected
PC.
or
Click Start Hdd logging (2) or press the trigger button on the
datalogger to directly save on the storage medium of the sink.
The sink starts data recording and is set to receive log data from the
probe.
