The OMB-TEMPSCAN-1100 sets a new standard for speed, expansion and economy in data acquisition systems. The OMB-TEMPSCAN-1100 accepts any one of three scanning modules, for either thermocouple, RTD or voltage measurement. The thermocouple and voltage modules each accept 32 inputs, while the RTD module accepts 16 3 or 4-wire RTD sensors. With the optional OMB-EXP10A expansion chassis, the OMB-TEMPSCAN-1100 can be easily expanded; each chassis can accept either 1 or 2 additional input modules; with 15 expansion chassis, up to 992 thermocouple or voltage inputs are available.
Speed
The OMB-TEMPSCAN-1100's multi-processor architecture provides linearized and compensated thermocouple-based temperature readings at speeds up to 960 channels per second, valuable in monitoring a large number of channels. The OMB-TEMPSCAN-1100 fast reading rate enables the unit to measure a sensor and activate an alarm much faster than alternative solutions. Also, a 16-bit A/D converter ensures measurement integrity. The A/D converter samples and averages multiple readings, resulting in high noise rejection from ac line pickup.
Datalogging
The OMB-TEMPSCAN-1100 is designed to facilitate datalogging at fixed-time intervals. The unit can be configured to begin and end logging on a user-specified event, such as a TTL input, temperature level, IEEE GET command, as well as time of day, or upon completion of a specified number of readings. An internal 256 k data buffer can be upgraded to 8 megabytes, ideal for both high-speed and long-term datalogging.
Process Monitoring/Control
Many process control applications require occasional temperature monitoring until a limit condition occurs. Once an alarm is detected, the system often needs to accelerate temperature measurement and simultaneously provide closed-loop control signals until the process returns to steady-state conditions.
The OMB-TEMPSCAN-1100 provides 32 digital alarm outputs that actuate on user-specified alarm conditions, on a per channel basis. Once the limit condition is resolved, the alarm outputs return to steady-state. The OMB-TEMPSCAN-1100 can update alarmed output channels in real-time, at the max 960 channels per second rate. It can also be configured to alert the host computer of active alarm conditions via an IEEE-488 SRQ
Software
Tempview datalogging software is included, which will run under Windows 3.1 or Windows 95. It allows you to graphically configure
channel characteristics and scanning requirements, and also provides several options
for viewing, plotting, and saving measured data. It permits the display of real-time readings in
spreadsheet format and supports DDE for transferring readings to other applications. It also enables real-time graphing of
acquired readings. The user may also store data to the OMB-Tempscan's internal memory, for easy download using Tempview software via the
RS-232 port or remotely from a modem. Tempview supports RS-232, RS-422 and IEEE-488 (when using Omega's OMB-PER-488 board) communications.
The OMB-TEMPSCAN-1100 is priced from $2190 (when including serial cable and input card).
