Economical, multi-purpose plug-in data module handles
display, monitoring and analysis for up to 164 transducer
channels
RDP’s modular 600 electronics system combines signal
conditioning, power and local display facilities in a Eurocard
format for a wide range of transducers. Plug-in modules
provide I/O options, conditioning and data logging for up
to 164 transducer channels.
A key element in the Modular 600 system is the 650 digital I/O and data
storage module. At a basic level, the 650 provides a real-time LED
display of any selected channel in the system. The 650 also acts as a
data hub into which a PC can be connected. Serial data can be sent
via RS232, RS422 or RS485 and RDP Electronics provides freeware,
downloadable from its site at www.rdpe.com, to enable a PC to capture
data directly to a Microsoft® Excel file. Using this data logging format
on the PC provides the user with a powerful tool to create custom
logging, real-time analysis and graphical reports.
In addition to external data logging features, the 650 range can be
programmed to monitor and store channel values internally, uploading
the stored to a PC for analysis after the data logging function has
completed. Two versions of the 650 module are available with a
choice of data storage capacities. The 650 stores up to 10,240
channel readings and the 650ME1 has an increased capacity of
65,536 readings. Components of the Modular 600 system are
described in detail in individual data sheets at RDP’s website
at www.rdpelectronics.com.
