Programmable VME measures frequency and period.
Press Release Summary:
Suited for use in high-noise environments, V365 VME Tachometer/Overspeed Module acquires low-frequency inputs from industrial speed sensors. Single-width, 6U high module provides 8 tachometer input channels, each including differential input amplifier and programmable signal conditioning. Four independent overspeed blocks may be aimed at any selected tach channel, and each is programmable to trip on static or latched overspeed or underspeed conditions.

Highland Technology Announced the Release of its V365 VME Tachometer/Overspeed Module
San Francisco, Calif., August 21 , 2006 - - Highland Technology announced the release of its V365 VME Tachometer/Overspeed Module.
The V365 is an 8-channel single-width 6U height VME module specifically designed to acquire low frequency inputs from industrial speed sensors. The V365 can measure frequency and period over a wide dynamic range, and is specifically designed to ensure reliable measurement in high-noise environments.
The V365 provides eight tachometer input channels, each including a differential input amplifier and programmable signal conditioning. Four independent programmable overspeed blocks are provided and may be aimed at any selected tach channel. Each is programmable to trip on static or latched overspeed or underspeed conditions. Control provisions include relay polarity and startup override, and provision is made for self-test of the overspeed facilities.
The V365 can be connected directly to common transducer types, including variable reluctance or hall-effect magnetic speed pickups, AC line voltage or alternator windings up to 150 volts RMS, optical pickups, reed-switch or signal-conditioned fuel flow meters, contact closures, or other special levels.
Two SMB signal monitor connectors allow for the analog and digital signal levels of any selected channel to be monitored at any time. A third SMB connector allows for internally or externally generated self test signals for in crate testing.
