NTI ICP Adapter ASD Data Sheet

PRODUCT DATA

ICP Adapter ASD

for XL2 Analyzer

The ICP Adapter connects to the XL2 and generates ICP pow­er supply for accelerometers and other custom sensors. The
adapter offers an electronic data sheet, which stores the sen­sitivity and individual serial number of the connected sensor.

Electronic Data Sheet

The Automated Sensor Detection (ASD) of the XL2 Analyzer au­tomatically reads the electronic data sheet of this adapter, i.e. the
adapter model, the sensor serial number and calibration data. This
promotes faster setup and ensures accurate measurements. The
information of the electronic data sheet is documented in every
XL2 measurement report.

Serial Number Setting

Store the serial number of your connected sensor in the electronic
data sheet of the adapter.

Connect the XL2 to the computer and start the XL2 Projector •
software V2.6 or higher. You will see the XL2 screen live on the
PC monitor. The latest XL2 Projector software is available for
download at http://my.nti-audio.com/support/xl2.
