The OMP-MODL Modulogger is a
self-contained, battery or line-powered
datalogger and alarm system, which
can be deployed as a “stand-alone”
system, or incorporated into
equipment where it silently samples
digital and analog inputs, storing
them to internal or PCMCIA memory.
Easily programmed, the OMP-MODL
has extremely powerful processing
capabilities for data reduction
(averaging, min/max, etc.)
mathematical manipulation (algebraic,
trig, time integrals, etc.) as well as
unlimited, user-programmable,
intelligent data logging capabilities.
Together with the supplied
Hyperware for Windows software,
the OMP-MODL is a powerful, fully
user programmable datalogging and
alarming system. The Hyperware
software provides for graphical
programming of the OMP-MODL,
serial communications, real-time
trending, plotting and spreadsheet
conversion of collected data. The
OMP-MODL consists of a user
specified stack of ruggedly packaged,
rectangular modules. The main CPU
module can be expanded
with additional analog inputs, digital
I/O, display and memory expansion
modules to meet your specific
application needs.

CPU Module

A CPU module is required in all
OMP-MODL systems as it contains
the system microprocessor, data
storage memory, 13 bit Analog to
Digital converter basic user switches
and indicators, RS-232 port and
Cold Junction Compensation
circuitry. It also includes four alarm
outputs, four universal analog
inputs, and one digital count/event
input. The provided analog inputs
are software configurable for
6 thermocouple types,15 ranges of
DC voltage or 7 ranges of DC current
(identical function/specs as add-on
OMP-MLIM-1 Module).

Modulogger Expanded View

Each of the analog input channels
sports full differential inputs,
software programmable configuration,
front-end completion circuitry and
rugged suppression protection
circuitry to insure reliable accurate
readings. The CPU module also
includes a Cold Junction
Compensation input for
thermocouple applications. If
thermocouples are not used, the
CJC channel can be used as a
system temperature, resistance,
thermistor, or contact closure input.
A single software configurable,
general-purpose digital input is
provided for logging of events or
counting pulse outputs from flow
meters, encoders, or other
pulse-train type sources.

E-67

The CPU module also provides two
isolated alarm relay outputs, a TTL
alarm output, a Status LED and a
regulated, current-limited 5 Vdc
output, all controllable via software.
“Enable”, “Stop” and “Reset” switches
as well as LED status indicators
are provided at one end of the CPU
module. Input and Output wiring is
handled through plug-in terminal strips
which allow for mass connection
and disconnection of wiring.

Expansion Modules

A full family of plug-on modules is
available to expand the capability
and features of the system. Modules
are available for additional analog
inputs, digital I/O, modem
communication, PCMCIA memory
card interface, user interface/display,
and battery power. As modules are
added, they stack onto the CPU
module, building a layered instrument
to meet your needs. Modules are
self-identifying and configurable via
the Hyperware software for input
type and range within the module’s
capability (e.g., the MLIM-4 accepts
2, 3, and 4 wire RTD, resistance and
thermistor inputs each with a
multitude of ranges, all under
software control).

Applications

Designed for portable, plant floor,
and long-term remote data collection
applications, the OMP-MODL
incorporates low power CMOS
circuitry to provide up to 4 weeks
of operation from its optional
plug-on D-cell battery pack.
A low-voltage power transformer
can be used for indefinite logging.

Software

HyperWare for Windows is a powerful
multi-purpose software package
provided with the OMP-MODL.
It facilitates serial communications,
provides for graphic programming
of the OMP-MODL, real-time data
trending, collected data graphic
plotting and data export to other
applications, such as Microsoft Excel.
