Description.

The SD version of the 2400-A16 is a great way to achieve a stand-alone
method for data logging. The station can be used as a 16 input stand-alone
logger, or as part of a SCADA data high way with backup logging facility.
The user friendly, free to download Intech Micro Station Programmer
software (version 5.2.3613.5 or later), supports the reading of SD cards on
the 2400-A16-SD-NET.

Quick Overview of using the 2400-A16-SD-NET Logger.

1. Station Setup:

Configure the 2400-A16-SD-NET station with Input types as required.
Configure the 2400-A16-SD-NET station’s SD recording parameters.

2. SD Card Setup:

Configure the Pages & Lines for all Inputs being used.
Initialise SD card if more than one computer is used for download.

3. Record:

Insert the SD card into the 2400-16-SD-NET’s SD slot, you will hear the latch on the SD socket ‘click’.
The RECORD LED will flash while the log file is created. Once logging has started, the RECORD LED will stay on.
If the log file is already there, the 2400-A16-SD-NET will use that and the RECORD LED will come on straight away.

4. Download:

Using either an SD port on the computer or the 2400-A16-SD-NET’s Comms, all new data is downloaded into the
Station Programmer software and stored in a log file.

XU-USB

USB Programming Key for programming 2400-A16-SD-NET using Station Programmer software.

(Same Key as used for programming XU Series transmitters, Z-2400-Sleeper, Z-2400-A2 Series, IN-uP4 and uP4-Din).
Note: The 2400-A16-SD-NET can also be programmed via the on-board Comms Ports.
Ethernet: The XPort® Ethernet converter must be programmed via the Ethernet TCP/IP port.
