TC-Link® -mXRS? 6 Channel Wireless Thermocouple Node - 1

Extended Range Synchronized 6 Channel Wireless Thermocouple Node Data Sheet 6 Channel Extended Range mXR Synchronized Wireless Thermocouple Node The TC-Link® -6CH -mXRS™ complete wireless thermocouple node, designed for integration with wireless sensor networks, combines full thermocouple conditioning with award-winning MicroStrain® wireless systems. This amazing new wireless sensor node features six standard thermocouple input connectors with an em bedded cold junction temperature sensor. On-board linearization algorithms are software programmable to support a wide rangeof thermocouple The node can simultaneously log data to internal memory and transmit real-time data to a base station transceiver at a pre- programmed rate, where data is displayed and logged forfurther analysis. And because each node has a unique address, a single host transceiver can address hundreds of sensor nodes. Features & Benefits ■ plug and play: quickly add wireless sensing and logging capabilities to existing thermocouples and probes ■ supports type J, K, N, R, S,T, E, B thermocouples with on-board cold junction compensation ■ low cost per channel, with 6 thermocouples per node and simultaneous acquisition from multiple nodes ■ self-calibrating 24 bit sigma-delta analog to digital converter ■ sample rates from 2 Hz to 1 sample every 17 minutes ■ 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 spread spectrum radio with 70m line- of-sight range (100 m with high gain antenna), license free ■ optional relative-humidity sensor ■ on-board real-time clock ■ Internal rechargeable battery and low-power consumption civil structures sensing: concrete maturation industrial sensing networks: machine thermal management food and transportation systems: refrigeration, freezer performance monitoring advanced manufacturing: plastics processing, composite cure monitoring assembly line testing with smart packaging cryogenic applications System Overview At the heart of MicroStrain's extended range synchronized (mXRS™) system is the WSDA®-Base, which uses our exclusive beaconing protocols to synch precision timekeepers embedded within each sensor node in the network. The WSDA®-Base also coordinates data collection from all sensor nodes, including TC-Link® -6CH -mXRS™. Users can easily program each node on the scalable network for simultaneous, periodic, or burst mode sampling with our Node Commander® software, which then automatically configures network radio communications to maximize the aggregate sample rate.
