Sensor Connectivity is an unique modular and programmable sensor control and integration device designed to fit any TCP/IP or IP/UDP Ethernet networks.
The State of the Art technology of the industrial electronics applied to real time process control and the PC technology are merged into an “all in one” device which can be easily connected via the network to any kind of sophisticated FDC software Sensor Connectivity is made of a portable mainframe with 8 slots for intelligent cards (one or more SC-AI cards, one or more SC-COM cards, etc.) Smart modules enable the system to acquire and control any kind of field/tool sensor data, (electrical signal as well as digital communication modes)
The basic feature of Sensor Connectivity is the concept of the distributed intelligence; in fact, each I/O card is equipped with one or more dedicated CPUs and software Distributed intelligence allows ultra fast data sampling and treatment without degrading system performance
Sensor Connectivity can be easily connected and integrated into any kind of client FDC software via standard protocols on TCP/IP (Modbus on TCP/IP & others)
The core of the unit is an industrial PC ETX miniaturized into a module with a linux embedded operating system, it manages all modules and perform tasks, a fast internal bus allow cards to exchange data with the core module.
Through the “open design” software platform the device is capable to be to be easily set up, configured and changed to any kind of future customer needs in terms of the number and typology of sensors to be connected
The provided user friendly software “SC View” allows fast remote unit configurationsAlso a Windows Xp pc card is part of the system, it is a complete personal computer miniaturized in a module to configure the system by using the dedicated configuration software “SC View” or run any other windows based programs and applications
On customer request customized modules, drivers and software can be developed to adapt and expand the system to any future customer requirements
Sensor Connectivity is the cost saving, solid investment for your current and future FDC and process control requirements
