The OM-CP-MOTOR101A Series 
measures and records on and off 
status changes for motors or other 
equipment drawing up to 200 Amps. 
Simply route the current carrying wire 
for the equipment being monitored 
through the current switch. The state 
change occurs when the current 
switch exceeds the 150 mA set point. 
This allows for most basic equipment 
to be monitored. The current switch 
monitors whether there is current 
passing through a wire around which 
it is attached. 
When the current exceeds 150 mA, 
the output changes and provides a 
voltage for the OM-CP-MOTOR101A 
to measure. The device can hold 
up to 406,323 state changes, but 
memory will only be used if the 
status has changed. The device can 
be programmed to check for status 
changes 4 times per second up to 
once every 24 hours. 
Data retrieval is simple. Simply plug 
it into an available USB port and 
our user-friendly software does the 
rest. The software converts a PC 
into a real-time strip chart recorder. 
Data can be printed in graphical and 
tabular format or exported to a text 
or Microsoft Excel
®
 file. The storage 
medium is non-volatile solid state 
memory, providing maximum data 
security even if the battery becomes 
discharged.
