New Kit Reads and Writes TEDS Information to Sensors

December 9, 2002, Depew, NY - PCB Piezotronics, Inc. and The Modal Shop, Inc. (A PCB Group Co.) have jointly released Model 400A76 TEDS Sensor Interface Kit. This kit provides the hardware and software required to interface with more TEDS sensors than any previously-available software interface. Operating on a Windows PC via an RS-232 port, Model 400A76 kit enables the user to read and write TEDS data in 16 IEEE TEDS templates and three templates established by LMS International.

Types of transducers supported include accelerometers, microphones, charge amplifiers, and microphone preamplifiers. Model 400A76 kit consists of a 100-7158-20 RS-232 Hardware Interface Dongle, TEDS Read/Write software, and a cable assembly.

This kit represents one of the most advanced implementations yet of IEEE P1451.4, a developing standard for mixed-mode TEDS sensors. This new software is powered by The Modal Shop's latest TEDS encoding/decoding engine, enabling read/write access to sensors with 256 bits of memory.
