Wireless I/O handles analog and digital signals.

MCR-RAD integrated radio and I/O module eliminates cable and conduit for analog and digital signals in harsh industrial environments. Modules are available as transmitter/receiver pair and come factory programmed, calibrated, and tested as set, capable of carrying one 4 to 20 mA current loop and two digital status signals. Typical in-plant range is 600 to 1,000 ft, farther in outdoor...

Amplifier powers two channels.

Model 439 Two-Channel Attenuator-Amplifier has gain range of 118 dB in one dB steps from -78 to +40 dB. Gain is set by front panel rotary encoder and displayed on LCD. Each channel's gain can be set independently or they can be set together. Power amplifier is included to drive stereo headphone for audiometric testing or other use. Clock noise is eliminated by putting microprocessor into sleep...

Available in standard encoder style housing or non-contact kit version, encoder is zero-point programmable, has both SSI and parallel outputs, and will operate in temperatures from -20 to 85 deg C. Non-contact kit measures 15.5 mm in depth, weighs 50 g, and has IP68 sealing on its face. Standard unit weighs 120 g and has...

Absolute Encoder plugs into fieldbuses.

ProCoder multi-turn absolute optical rotary encoder employs modular bus that works with SSI, CANopen, DeviceNet, and Profibus. Available with 13 or 29 bit resolution, it has 200G shock protection and IP 65 sealing, and will operate in temperatures from -20 to 85 deg C. It measures 58 mm in diameter and 89 mm in depth.

A Guide to Quality Control of the SMT Process

The printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing process begins with cutting-edge equipment capable of accurately picking and placing up to 40,000 components per hour. This innovative equipment keeps error rates extremely low, and those defects that do occur are quickly caught by sensitive laser and optical inspection equipment.

Wireless Encoder provides security.

rfHCS362G/362F encoders integrate built-in radio frequency (RF) transmitter with company's secure Keeloq(R) access control system. Encoder provides programmable 32-bit serial number and two 64-bit user-programmable encryption keys for secure identification. Code hopping technology makes each transmission unique, eliminating threat of capture and re-send schemes. Applications include electronic...

Intercom Systems work digitally.

Echo provides single system for intercom, public address, general alarm, paging, and telecommunication functions. It has prioritized public address with one-touch emergency paging, programmable station directory, speed dialing, caller I.D., busy-line camping, call conferencing, fault isolation, and remote modem control. It accepts multiple audio sources for tones, voice messages, and background...

Interface connects to any PLC.

QuickBloc Universal PLC interface has 8 or 16 channels, connects to any manufacturer's PLC, and has choice of screw or tension clamp technology. It comes with terminals, pre-wired cable with flying leads ready to attach to any PLC's front panel adapter, and pre-printed marking tags. Options are available for fusing, analog signals, and PCB versions that use pluggable cable system.

Industrial Computers offer optional configurations.

paneLink 12 systems are equipped with 12.1 in. SVGA TFT display with 800 x 600 resolution, analog resistive touchscreen, 300 MHz Geode processor, and 10/100 Ethernet connectivity. They include 1 RS 232/422/485 serial port, 1 parallel port, 2 USB ports and NEMA 4 front panel. Storage options include 5 GB hard drive and 32 to 128 Mbyte flash drives. Standard OS options include Windows 98/NT/2000...

Audio Board is suitable for embedded systems.

Compatible with PC/104-Plus SoundBlaster Pro(TM), PPM-Audio can record, compress, store, and playback voice, sound, and music. It measures 3.6 x 3.8 in., and includes audio signal processor that provides simultaneous support for multiple audio streams. With its built-in DSP core and 7 external I/O sources, PPM-Audio requires +5 Vdc, and draws 225 mA (typical).

Synchro-Resolver-Encoder Card keeps out noise.

Four-channel IB card plugs into any IBM-AT compatible computer. It may be user-populated with any combination of Synchro/Resolver to Digital and/or Digital to Synchro/Resolver converters with industry-standard pin-outs. Internal micro-transformers isolate signal and reference lines, isolate field wiring from bus, and provide noise immunity. This preserves integrity of bus, and eliminates concerns...
