MyChron Expansion
User Manual
Release 1.02
MyChron4 Expansion is the new external expansion module that increases MyChron4
already big potential allowing the connection with other AIM products like LCU-Lambda
Controller, GPS and SmartyCam, the on-board camera.
With MyChron Expansion it is possible to add 4 analog channels – or three analog
channels and a digital one – to MyChron4. MyChron Expansion can support temperature
sensors (only PT100 thermo resistors), potentiometers and displacement sensors – not
contact too.
This new expansion is to be considered as an alternative to MyChron4 eBox
Gold/Extreme.
This manual is to be used as an integration of MyChron4 user manual. Refer to that
document for any further information.
