Web Data Logger
Model: DL30-G
Features of the DL30-G, a Web Data Logger for the IoT Era
The DL30-G is a new web data logger for on-site installation born from our technology and experience cultivated during the production of the web
data logger TL2W (a product limited to the Japanese market). The DL30-G collects and logs (records) data on-site. It also edits and accumulates it inrecord format (daily, monthly, and yearly report forms) and generates various web screens based on the accumulated data.
These web screens can be monitored on a PC or tablet over LAN or the Internet. On the monitoring side, the PC or tablet only needs a browser withno restrictions on the PC, tablet model, or OS. Furthermore, the DL30-G is also equipped with a function that automatically reports events by email.
Such events include alarms that occur on-site, including those for the starting and stopping of equipment. The DL30-G has various
built-in communication protocols that support these functions. The DL30-G can be used for various applications, such as data collection and transfer
of logging and report data files, by communicating with programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and remote I/O devices.

Event

When the start time is reached for a digital output (Do) value
or digital function register (MD) value specified according to
the registered schedule, the DL30-G will turn the output ON
from the corresponding channel and turn the output OFF
when the end time is reached. A scheduled pattern is set ona daily basis, and you can assign a pattern for each day of
the week.
• Up to 64 schedule patterns can be registered.
• Up to 8 channels can be assigned to a single pattern, andthe start time and end time can be set for each channel.
• You can create a schedule for each day of the week, including
the current day.

The following 3 types of event
data are recorded.

IP Telemeter (I/O mapping) Configuration with the DL30-G
Commentary• The DL30-G units share data as IP telemeters, handling input/output signals.
• Communication is possible not only between the master and slave stations but also between different slave
stations.
• Alarm monitoring can be performed by the DL30-G, and alarm output can be sent to other DL30-G units toenable contact output.
• An email notification can also be sent in the event of an alarm or abnormal communication with otherstations.
• Data collected by the DL30-G is saved as logging and report files (in CSV format).

Proposals for machinery and equipment manufacturers
By attaching the DL30-G to existing processing machinery or production equipment,
your quality control center can monitor the production equipment’s operation history data
in real time via the Internet.
The DL30-G plays a major role in anomaly detection, prediction, and preventive maintenance.

Application Examples
Proposals for machinery and equipment users
By attaching the DL30-G to each processing machine or production facility currently in operation,measurement data during the operation of each production or utility facility can be monitored in real timefrom a central monitoring room in the plant or via the Internet.
This frees you from the need for manual inspections and handwritten maintenance records.
