Thank you for choosing an Astro-Med data acquisition recorder. This Quick Start Guide was prepared to help you
become acquainted with your recorder as quickly as possible. We even include sample exercises so you can become
familiar with the basic operation.
This Quick Start Guide supports two models: The Dash 8Xe and the Dash 8X.
Throughout this guide, both models will be referred to as Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X.
The Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X is a powerful and versatile data acquisition recording system that provides the capability to
display, record, and review waveform data. The system uses up to eight plug-in modules for signal input connections.
Input modules are installed using the eight plug-in slots, which provide configuration flexibility for a variety of applications
and future growth.
Data samples from up to eight signals can be acquired at rates up to 200,000 samples per second and streamed directly
to a high-capacity hard drive. Additionally, the Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X has a scope card option that adds four channels with
sample rates of up to five million samples per second.
The Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X utilizes a touch-screen as the main user interface. Many of the Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X control
icons are customizable, providing the capability to modify the display based on the needs of the user or application.
Voltage Verification: The Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X has an auto-sensing power supply that operates from 100 – 250 VAC at
50 or 60 Hz. You do not have to set up any fuse block arrangement.
Connect AC Power Cord: Connect AC power cord to the side panel, then to an outlet.
Turn On Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X: When you turn on the Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X, the display will show various initialization
screens and then load in the last setup it had before it was powered down.
Signal Inputs: The Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X can record up to eight channels of analog signals. Signal type is dependent
upon the signal module used for each channel.
Display: The Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X has a large touchscreen display. The display is divided into two main areas, the
Waveform Display Area (shows the waveform signals typically drawn onto a grid pattern) and the Control Panel (rows of
control icons for operation).
The following is a summary of the location of the physical components of the Dash 8Xe / Dash 8X.
