Description
The Chell flightDAQ-TL is a complimentary product to our existing line of flightDAQ and Q-DAQ pressure measuring equipment.
Using the powerful architecture and interfaces enables the flightDAQ-TL to accurately measure a large variety of input types, convert the measurement to engineering units and then output the data over a number of configurable Ethernet interfaces. These interfaces can be the Chell protocol (TCP/ IP or UDP), IENA, iDDS or Netscanner simulation mode.
The flightDAQ-TL consists of 16 x 8-pin Lemo 1B series inputs each of which contain two inputs (one primary and one secondary), switchable excitation and a digital interface for the optional Smart Lemo plugs.
The two inputs can be individually configured to provide measurements for the following:
Voltage
Resistance
Thermistor
Thermocouple inputs (using external cold junction such as a Smart Lemo).
RTD385
Amplified pressure transducer
Ratiometric pressure transducer
The flightDAQ-TL can be configured for any combination of channels without comprising speed or performance (with the exception of the 24V excitation which must be applied to all channels).
Configuration of the inputs and the output stream is carried out via an embedded web server, using commands over the selected protocol or via an iDDS configuration server or by XML file download.
The user can choose between a number of standard look-up-tables (RTD385, N-Type etc) or enter their own for conversion to engineering units of their choice (maximum size 448 lines – downloadable from a CSV file).
Alternative, if used with the compatible Smart Lemo’s, this look-up-table can be stored in the connector and therefore remains physically tied with the transducer.
The flightDAQ-TL has a programmable excitation source available to all channels. This can be configured to be +5, +10 or +24VDC.
The flightDAQ-TL features PoE as standard but can be user configured (via internal switches) for conventional DC supply.
