Analog and Digital Output Signal Conditioners/Transmitters - 1

Analog and Digital Output Signal Conditioners/Transmitters iDRN/iDRX Series U Analog or Digital Output U Models Available for: Thermocouple, RTD, Process Voltage & Current, Strain, Frequency/Pulse, AC Voltage and Current U Up to 1800 Vdc Isolation U iDRN Series Provide 0 to 10 Vdc, 4 to 20 mA or 0 to 20 mA Output U iDRX Series Provide RS-485 Output (ASCII Serial Protocol and MODBUS Serial Protocol) U Free Setup and Configuration Software U Factory Setup and Configuration Available at No Charge (for iDRN Analog Output Models) The iD Series signal conditioners combine the accuracy of laboratory instrumentation with the performance required by demanding industrial applications. The iD Series signal conditioners are ideal for those applications in Data Acquisition, Test & Measurement, Process Control, and Industrial Automation where accuracy, performance, and reliability are critically important. The iD Series signal conditioners mount on a 35mm DIN rail, and operate on any voltage between 10 to 32 DC power. (A matching 24 Vdc 850 mA switching power supply is also available.) The devices feature three-way isolation of up to 1800 Vdc between the signal inputs, outputs, and power supply. The iD series feature seven (7) models designed for each of the most widely measured signal inputs: Process (DC) Voltage and Current; Strain Gage; Thermocouples; RTD’s; AC Voltage; AC Current; Frequency/Pulse. The iD series devices are designed to work directly with a variety of sensors and transducers; no other components are necessary. For sensors such as RTD’s, strain gages, and some process transducers, precise stable excitation is provided directly from the iD module. The iD series are available with two different types of signal outputs: Analog or Digital. The iDRN series provides a totally scalable analog output in DC voltage or current. The iDRX series provide a digital RS-485 output. Both iD Series signal conditioners are intelligent microprocessor based instruments that can be scaled and programmed by computer via serial communications, or over an Ethernet network. iDRN Series Analog Output The iDRN series feature a 0 to 10 Vdc, or 0 to 20 mA (including 4 to 20 mA) analog output signal that is typically scaled to be directly proportional to the input signal. It is an ideal component in a system with PLC’s or PC’s with analog data acquisition boards. The iDRN series are an excellent choice for applications that demand an extra measure of accuracy and performance that is not possible with conventional “analog” signal conditioners or transmitters. Unlike conventional analog devices that are scaled by adjusting zero and span “pots”, the programmable, micro-processor based iDRN instruments are scaled precisely on a PC with free and simple Windows software. The iDRN modules connect directly to a PC’s RS-232 Serial Communications port for programming and scaling. Once the module is configured, the parameters are saved in nonvolatile memory. The device can be disconnected from the PC, or the RS-232 output from the module can be used for continuous data acquisition in addition to the analog output. Alternatively, the iDRN signal conditioner can be connected to a PC’s Ethernet port or an Ethernet network using the EIT module as a Serial/Ethernet bridge.

Analog and Digital Output Signal Conditioners/Transmitters - 2

ONERS Free Setup and Configuration If an iDRN signal conditioner is not going to be connected to a computer, it can be ordered preconfigured by the factory at no extra charge. The user can select the input types, ranges and output scale, and OMEGA will program the instruments to those specific requirements in our calibration lab prior to shipment. For custom factory setup and scaling of the iDRN model, please specify the “-FS” option. iDRX Series Digital Output The iDRX Series Signal Conditioners provide highly accurate digital outputs. Each module provides an RS-485 Serial output that can...

Access Vital information Anytime, Anywhere. Digital Output iDRX modules connected to Ethernet The iDRX signal conditioner can also be connected to an Ethernet network using the EIT module as a Serial/Ethernet bridge. One EIT module can be a hub for up to 32 iDRX modules. The EIT module packages the ASCII serial communications in standard TCP/IP Protocol for transmission over standard Ethernet networks and the Internet. Unlike some manufacturer’s products this system uses totally open, nonproprietary standards and protocols for Ethernet and Internet. The user can integrate these devices with...

U Web Server and an Ethernet/ Serial BfWge iServer EIT The OMEGA® EIT “iServer” is a DIN rail device which can connect up to 32 iDRX RS-485 instruments to an Ethernet network and the Internet using standard TCP/IP protocol. It can also be used as a simple Serial to Ethernet “bridge” or converter to connect a single iDRN RS-232 device to an Ethernet network and the Internet. (RS-232 Serial Communications are limited to a single connection between two devices, such as one computer and one signal conditioner. RS-485 is limited to 32 devices on a communications bus per hub or repeater). The...
