 NCS NET Concentrator System®  Process Control and Distributed I/O System -5

Custom Linearization The NET Concentrator Systemcan be programmed with up to 128 custom linearization points. The ability to plot a custom linearization curve is beneficial when non-linear signals must be converted to linear output representations. Typical applications include monitoring a non-linear transducer, the level of odd-shaped tanks, and flow meter linearization. Process Control and Distributed I/O Ready for the Real World Standard OPC Serverח Wheninstalled on a PC, our OPC (OLE for Process Control) data server acts as a centralized location for communicating with local NCSstations,...
