Load Cell Interface offers simultaneous digital/analog output.
Press Release Summary:
Intended for iLoad Series digital USB load cells, HX-100 hybrid load cell interface lets user simultaneously obtain digital and analog output from same load cell. Load cell outputs calibrated load data in lbs/Newtons/kgs to PC as well as 0-5 Vdc analog output. Users are also able to input force data into DAQ system or PLC while monitoring data digitally on PC or Mac. On-demand or continuous modes are available for display of loads.

Loadstar Sensors Releases Hybrid Load Cell Interface with Simultaneous Digital & Analog Outputs
Fremont Ca -- Loadstar Sensors Inc. announces tannounces the availability of its HX-100 hybrid load cell interface for the iLoad Series digital load cells.
The HX-100 allows a user to simultaneously obtain both digital as well as analog output from the same load cell. Just connect one end of a iLoad digital USB load cell to the HX-100 and the other end to a PC. The load cell outputs calibrated load data in Lbs/Newtons/Kgs on the PC while outputting a high level 0-5VDC analog output at the same time. The HX-100 enables you to input the force data into a data acquisition system or programmable logic controller while monitoring the data digitally on a PC or Mac.
The highlights of this solution are:
"The HX-100 is the world's first load cell interface to offer both digital as well as analog outputs from a load cell - simultaneously!" says Div Harish, President & CEO of Loadstar Sensors, Inc. "Our digital USB load cell solutions are very popular for test & measurement applications and for building OEM products. Now developers can also get analog output that can be directly input into their PLCs or micro-controllers. The simultaneous availability of digital and analog data will cut the development and debug time by up to 50-60%."
