Compatible devices	C.A 5292, C.A 5293, MX5006, MX5060

The PC software SX-DMM2 from Chauvin Arnoux is a special accessory for data acquisition and management with specific multimeters. It is designed for the colour graphic multimeters C.A 5292 and C.A 5293, as well as for the bench multimeters MX5006 and MX5060. The software enables comprehensive configuration of the devices, including setting measurement parameters and modes, and serves as an interface between the measuring instruments and a PC. This allows measurement values to be displayed, stored, evaluated, and read out from the device in real time. Recording takes place directly on the PC, with each measurement value being assigned a precise date and time stamp, which is important for traceable documentation and reports.

Applications

The software is particularly suitable for users who need to perform detailed analysis of measurement data or archive it for technical reports, quality control, or maintenance documentation. It supports applications such as continuous monitoring of electrical parameters, long-term measurements in industrial or laboratory environments, and the creation of measurement protocols with time-based assignment. The integrated data management facilitates traceability and reuse of measurement results.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The software offers an intuitive user interface that simplifies the workflow for configuration and data processing. Devices can be directly controlled via the software, allowing settings such as measurement range, measurement frequency, or display format to be adjusted. Measurement values are displayed in real time on the PC screen, and the software stores the data in a structured format. Evaluation functions enable data representation in charts or tables, supporting visual analysis. The integrated function for reading measurement data from the device ensures seamless data transfer without manual input.

Technology Explained Simply

The software operates as a PC application that communicates with compatible multimeters via an interface. Communication occurs through a wired interface, enabling the transfer of measurement values and configuration data. Recording of measurement values includes a timestamp, ensuring precise time-based documentation. The software is developed for Windows operating systems, ensuring compatibility with common work environments in technical and industrial fields.

Compatibility and Accessories

The software is exclusively intended for multimeter models C.A 5292, C.A 5293, MX5006, and MX5060. These devices are designed as colour graphic multimeters or bench multimeters and support communication with the software. The software is designed as a standalone product and requires the use of a PC with a Windows operating system.

Installation and Mounting

Installation of the software is performed using the provided installation file, which is included in the delivery. The user instructions, also included in the delivery, describe the installation process and basic operation. The software must be installed on a PC equipped with an interface to communicate with the multimeters.

Advantages in Operation

Using the software enables structured and documented data acquisition, which is beneficial for quality control, maintenance logs, or technical reports. Real-time display and storage of measurement values reduce manual effort in data collection. The integrated evaluation function supports quick analysis of trends or deviations in measurement data. Precise recording with date and time increases traceability of measurement results, which is particularly important in safety-critical or regulated environments.

Scope of Delivery

The delivery includes: 1 x PC software for multimeters C.A 5292, C.A 5293, MX5006, and MX5060, and 1 x user instructions. No other components such as cables, adapters, or additional documentation are explicitly mentioned.
