protective grounding), Installation Category II, and EN61326-1
(EMC standard), class A (use in a commercial, industrial, or
business environment).
The DX is a measurement category II (CAT II) instrument.
*Measurement category II (CAT II)
Applies to measuring circuits connected to low voltage
installation, and electrical instruments supplied with power from
fixed equipment such as electric switchboards.
The general safety precautions described here must be observed
during all phases of operation. If the DX is used in a manner not
described in this manual, the protection provided by the DX may be
impaired. Yokogawa Electric Corporation assumes no liability for
the customer’s failure to comply with these requirements.
Use the DX as a measurement category II (CAT II) instrument.
The DX is designed for indoor use.

WARNING
•Use the Correct Power Supply
Ensure that the source voltage matches the voltage of the power
supply before turning ON the power. In the case of a desktop
type, ensure that it is within the maximum rated voltage range of
the provided power cord before connecting the power cord.
•Use the Correct Power Cord and Plug (Desktop Type)
To prevent electric shock or fire, be sure to use the power cord
supplied by YOKOGAWA. The main power plug must be
plugged into an outlet with a protective earth terminal. Do not
disable this protection by using an extension cord without
protective earth grounding.
•Connect the Protective Grounding Terminal
Make sure to connect the protective grounding to prevent
electric shock before turning ON the power.
The power cord that comes with the desktop type is a three-
prong type power cord. Connect the power cord to a properly
grounded three-prong outlet.
•Do Not Impair the Protective Grounding
Never cut off the internal or external protective grounding wire or
disconnect the wiring of the protective grounding terminal.
Doing so invalidates the protective functions of the instrument
and poses a potential shock hazard.
•Do Not Operate with Defective Protective Grounding
Do not operate the instrument if the protective grounding might
be defective. Also, make sure to check them before operation.
•Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable
liquids or vapors. Operation in such an environment constitutes
a safety hazard.
Prolonged use in a highly dense corrosive gas (H2S, SOx, etc.)
will cause a malfunction.
•Do Not Remove Covers
The cover should be removed by YOKOGAWA’s qualified
personnel only. Opening the cover is dangerous, because
some areas inside the instrument have high voltages.
•Ground the Instrument before Making External Connections
Connect the protective grounding before connecting to the item
under measurement or control unit.
•Damage to the Protection
Operating the instrument in a manner not described in this
manual may damage the instrument’s protection.
•Exemption from Responsibility
•YOKOGAWA makes no warranties regarding the product except
those stated in the WARRANTY that is provided separately.
•YOKOGAWA assumes no liability to any party for any loss or
damage, direct or indirect, caused by the user or any
unpredictable defect of the product.
•Handling Precautions of the Software
•YOKOGAWA makes no warranties regarding the software
accompanying this product except those stated in the
WARRANTY that is provided separately.
•Use the software on a single PC.
•You must purchase another copy of the software, if you are to
use the software on another PC.
•Copying the software for any purposes other than backup is
strictly prohibited.
•Please store the original media containing the software in a safe
place.
•Reverse engineering, such as decompiling of the software, is
strictly prohibited.
•No portion of the software supplied by YOKOGAWA may be
transferred, exchanged, or sublet or leased for use by any third
party without prior permission by YOKOGAWA.
Handling Precautions of the DX
•Use care when cleaning the DX, especially any plastic parts.
When cleaning, wipe using a dry soft cloth. Do not use
chemicals such as benzene or thinner, since these may cause
discoloring and deformation.
•Keep electrically charged objects away from the signal
terminals. If you do, the DX may malfunction.
•Do not apply volatile chemicals to the display, panel keys, etc.
Do not allow rubber and vinyl products to remain in contact with
the DX for long periods of time. If you do, the DX may
malfunction.
•When not in use, make sure to turn OFF the power switch.
•If there are any symptoms of trouble such as strange odors or
smoke coming from the DX, immediately turn OFF the power
switch and the power supply source. Then, contact your
nearest YOKOGAWA dealer.
Handling Precautions of the External Storage
Medium (CF Card)
•Use caution in the handling of the external storage medium as it
is a delicate product.
•Write operation to storage media may fail under high-
temperature or low-temperature environments. If you are using
the DX in a low-temperature environment (around 10 °C or
less), use the DX after the warm-up time (at least 30 minutes)
has elapsed. If you are using the DX under a high-temperature
environment (around 40 °C or more), it is recommended that the
external storage medium be inserted into the drive when saving
the data and be removed after the data storage operation is
finished.
•Remove the storage medium from the drive when turning the
DX ON/OFF.
•Touching the compact flash section when static electricity is built
up on the human body can lead to erroneous operation.
•For the general handling precautions of the external storage
medium, see the instruction manual that came with the external
storage medium.
CAUTION
•Do not eject the external storage medium while the access
indicator is illuminated. This can damage the data.
•Do not access the storage medium in a place with vibrations or
shock. The storage medium or drive may malfunction.

Introduction to Functions
Measured Items
You can connect DC voltage, thermocouple, RTD, and ON/OFF input and measure various
values such as temperature and flow rate. The DX samples the input signals at the scan
interval to obtain the measured values. The fastest scan interval is 25 ms on the DX1002,
DX1002N, DX1004, and DX1004N and 125 ms on the DX1006, DX1006N, DX1012, and
DX1012N.
Up to four alarm conditions can be set for each measurement channel.
Data Storage Function
There are two methods of recording measured data. One is to record the measured data
continuously, and the other is to record only when certain events occur such as alarms.
The measured data is recorded to the internal memory at a specified interval. The data
in the internal memory can be stored to a CF card automatically or manually. By
connecting to a network via the Ethernet interface, the measured data can also be
automatically transferred to an FTP server on a network.

Display Function
Measured data can be displayed as trends, numeric values, and bar graphs for each
group. In addition, the overview display can be used to display and monitor all channels
on a single screen.

Other Functions
Computation Function (option) Various types of computation can be performed by
assigning equations to computation channels.
FAIL/status output function (option) Outputs an alarm when the DX fails. The function also
monitors the DX status such as the remaining amount of
internal memory and outputs alarms.
Remote control function (option) A specified action is executed when a remote input
signal is applied to the terminal on the rear panel.
Security function Enables only registered users can operate the DX. The
function can also be used to prohibit key operation.
Communication function The Ethernet interface can be used to monitor the DX
using a Web browser and transmit e-mail when an event
occurs such as an alarm. In addition, data of devices on
the network can be loaded and displayed using the
Modbus protocol.
DAQSTANDARD
The accompanying software program, DAQSTANDARD, can be used to display the
measured data, convert the measured data format, and create DX setup data.

points, turn ON the power switch again. If the DX still does not work, it is
probably a malfunction. Contact your nearest YOKOGAWA dealer for repairs.
•If an error message is displayed on the screen, take measures according to the
description in chapter 10, “Troubleshooting” in the
DX1000/DX1000N User’s
Manual
.
•Turn ON the power switch, let the DX warm up for at least 30 minutes, and then
start the measurements.
