Introduction
Thank you for purchasing our XL100 Portable Data Station/Portable Data
Logger.
This Quick Setup Manual briefly describes the key operations as well as setting
examples of the XL100 upon actual measurement, so that you can operate the
XL100 for the first time.
In addition to this manual, the User’s Manual and Communication Function
Manual contained in the CD-ROM are available separately. The User’s Manual
provides detailed information regarding all of the functions and operations of the
XL100 excluding the communication functions. The Communication Function
Manual provides information necessary for using communication functions and
creating communication programs. Use them together with this Quick Setup
Manual. The Communication Function Manual is available only for the Portable
Data Station.
After reading this manual, keep it in an easily accessible place for later
reference. This manual will come in handy when you are unsure of how to
operate the product.

5. Introduction of the Main Functions
Input Type and Calculation
As shown in the table below, the available input types are analog input, which
includes DC voltage, thermocouple, and RTD, and other inputs, which consist of
pulse signal (1 channel) and logic signals (2 channels).
In addition, the arithmetic calculations between two inputs can be performed and
assigned to a calculation channel and displayed in the same fashion as measured
values. The statistics of measured values can also be displayed.
For details on the input settings, see chapter 5, “Setting the Input Channels.” For
details on calculation, see chapter 8, “Setting the Calculation of Measured Data.”
Input/Calculation Description
DC voltage Measures a DC voltage in the range of ±100 mV to ±50 V.
Thermocouple Selectable from the following types: R, S, B, K, E, J, T, N, W,
L, and U.
RTD Selectable from Pt100 and JPt100 types.
Pulse signal Displays the pulse input as number of revolutions, integrated
value, or instantaneous value.
Logic signal Displays the logic waveform at the lower section of the display by
taking input voltage less than or equal to 0.9 V to be OFF (0) and
input voltage greater than or equal to 2.1 V to be ON (1).
Calculation Performs arithmetic calculations using measured data,
calculated data, communication data, and arbitrary assigned
constants and displays the result.
Statistical calculation Calculates and displays the maximum, minimum, average,
peak (P-P), or rms value of the measured value.

16 IM XL120P
Alarm Function
Generates an alarm when the measured/calculated value meets a certain
condition. When an alarm occurs, information notifying the alarm occurrence is
displayed on the screen. In addition, an alarm signal can be delivered from the
output terminal (digital I/O connector) on the rear panel of the XL100 by
connecting a digital I/O cable (option). You can select the alarm conditions from
the following table.
For details on the settings, see chapter 6, “Setting Alarms” in the User’s
Manual.
Input Type Setting Alarm Condition
Level OFF Not set alarm conditions.
or Pulse Hi An alarm occurs when the measured/calculated
value is greater than or equal to the alarm value.

Saving Data
Measured data, calculated data, setting data, and so forth can be saved to the
XL100 internal memory or an external storage medium (CF card or SD card)
that is inserted in the XL100.
SD
CF
Save the data
Supported only on the
XL121, XL122, and XL124
TIP
The XL100 is equipped with a USB port for USB memories. However, data cannot
be saved directly to a USB memory (see section 3.9 in the User’s Manual).
The types of data that can be saved are as follows:
Type Description
Logging data The instantaneous values of the measured/calculated data
can be saved at a specified sampling interval. The data save
operation is started or stopped with the START/STOP key.
The save operation can also be started or stopped when a
specific event (see “Trigger” on the next page) occurs. The
logging data contains alarm information.
Manual sampled data The measured/calculated data (instantaneous values) of all
channels can be saved by pressing the SAVE key in Free
Running Mode.
Alarm data The same information as the alarm summary display can be
saved by pressing the SAVE key during alarm summary
display.
Screen image data The image data of the screen being displayed can be saved
by pressing the SAVE key in Free Running Mode, etc.
Setting data The setting data of the XL100 can be saved in File Operation
Mode.
Log data The same information as the log display can be saved by
pressing the SAVE key during log data display.
Backup file If the data save operation is not carried out normally to the
internal memory or external storage medium (CF card or SD
card), the data is saved to the backup memory of the XL100.
The saved data can be copied to an external storage
medium.
5. Introduction of the Main Functions

18 IM XL120P
Triggers
In addition to using the START/STOP key to start or stop the logging, a trigger
for starting (or stopping) the save operation of the logging data (measured/
calculated data) can be configured for automatic operation. The trigger for
logging can be selected from the list below and configured.
Type Description
None Not set trigger conditions.
External A trigger is activated when a signal is applied to
the external trigger input terminal.
Level High limit (H) A trigger is activated when the measured value is greater
than or equal to the specified value.
Low limit (L) A trigger is activated when the measured value is less than
or equal to the specified value.
Window IN A trigger is activated when the measured value is within the
specified lower and high limits.
Window OUT A trigger is activated when the measured value is outside
the specified lower and high limits.
Alarm A trigger is activated when an alarm occurs on the specified
alarm output channel.
Time A trigger is activated at the specified time.
Timer The time at which the data save operation is stopped can
be specified. Logging is stopped after the specified time
elapses.
File Operations
The following file operations are available.
Operation Type Description
Rename Renames files saved on an external storage medium (CF card
or SD card) or internal memory.
Save setting data Saves setting data to an external storage medium (CF card, SD
card, and USB memory), internal memory, or setting memory.
Load setting data Loads the setting data saved on an external storage medium
(CF card, SD card, and USB memory), internal memory, or
setting memory and changes the settings.
Copy data Copies the files saved to the an external storage medium (CF
card or SD card), internal memory, or setting memory to an
external storage medium (CF card, SD card, or USB memory),
internal memory, or setting memory.
Copy backup memory Copies the files saved to the backup memory (memory to which
data is saved when data cannot be saved to an external storage
medium or internal memory) to an external storage medium (CF
card or SD card) or internal memory.
Format Formats an external storage medium (CF card or SD card),
backup memory, or internal memory.
