The Universal Programmable Transmitter is here!
Ian Loudon
September sees the newly released feature packed Universal Programmable Transmitter (TxB - as we call it, Model No C2401A) shipping from our factory. Any input type to any output type is the name of the game here. Thermocouples, RTDs, Voltage and Current are accepted directly and you choose the output range you require, 4-20mA, 1-5V, 0-10V -10mA to +10mA etc.
The TxB is a fully isolated Din Rail Mounting 4 Wire Transmitter can be powered from a 20 to 30V dc supply and has the following key features.
Features
TC/mV/VC/RB universal input
0-20mA / 0-± 10V / 0-± 10mA universal output
24Vdc powered
Three port isolation to 1500Vac
Software configurable
Sensor linearisation standard
Output overload detection and indicator
Custom Linearisation
You get to site - the 30 RTD inputs are suddenly Thermocouple inputs. What do you do?
Sound like a situation you have run into? Sometimes its not as extreme as this, it may as simple as the input range is wrong but these things do happen. When they do occur, simple or extreme they are downright inconvenient and cause delays, expense and a lot of aggravation.
Using TxBs you can change all these things in situ.
You need with your TxBs:
The Software is free - downloadable from the Website. The cable is also free if you purchased 10 or more TxB's . If you are an Omni16C User chances are you have already got nearly everything you need.
How hard is it to configure?
It's really simple!
DIP Switches
Set the DIP switches top and bottom of the housing to the desired input or outputs type to be used e.g. 3 wire RTD is different to Thermocouples. The housing is screened with the settings, so you don't really need the Instruction Guide in the TxB packing box.
Configuration (11 mouse clicks and 3 minutes of your time)
Load the software, connect the TxB to your PC using the cable, select the options required, 11 mouse clicks and 3 minutes of your time!, save the configuration you have chosen for future use or reference. The job is done.
We offer the configuration service from the Factory free of charge.
Offer customers calibrated transmitters ex stock !
Shipping TXB ex stock means a short sales cycle and a quick response time in your customers eyes and TXB covers all your transmitter ranges in one unit so you don't need to break the bank with stock inventory. Since TxB is a commodity product you need to be putting it on your shelf to minimize your response time.
