Sixth Sense AI-100 Data sheet

Designed to meet the needs of today’s demanding applications by offering
unlimited control flexibility in a compact and economical

Extraordinary power,

miniature size.

he Sixth Sense AI-100, the first 1/32DIN controller in the world to offer

T

advanced fuzzy logic control strategy to overcome the inadequacies of

standard PID controllers, comes in a package that is half the size of a

1

/16DIN controller.

Fuzzy logic technology works with the autotune function such that the
value of the PID parameters chosen by the controller is the starting point for
all decisions made. The end result of this extra layer of “intelligence” is that
your process will maintain a steady setpoint.

The AI-100 includes a host of extras, such as an optional RS-485 commu­nications function. Free Windows 95™-based software allows monitoring up
to 31 controllers from a PC. It features excellent graphics, including bar and
trend display, and supports easy-to-use database control and back-up capa­bility.

AI-100 BENEFITS

Advanced fuzzy logic control algorithms—

insures close to perfect control of most
complex process applications

PID autotune—the AI-100 will set up
your proportional band, integral, and derivative parameters
automatically

Auto/manual—operates as an auto/manual percent controller
if you need to control the output manually

NEMA 4X faceplate—makes the controller water-, chemical-,
splash-, and hosedown-proof

Universal input—features eight thermocouple, two RTD, and a
variety of current/voltage inputs

Selectable outputs and alarms—outputs available include
relay, DC pulse, 4–20mA, 0–20mA, 0–10 V. A second output is
available and can be configured as one of many program­mable alarms or as one of the above outputs

Timing functions—the built-in timer function allows you to use
the controller as a simple ramp/soak programmer

Heat/cool operation—it can function as a heat/cool controller
for various dual output machinery applications

Retransmission output—analog retransmission of PV, SV or
MV possible, as either 4–20mA or 0–20mA

Communications interface—RS-485 serial communications

Many operating voltages—the AI-100 will operate on either

90–264V AC, or on 20–32V AC/DC

Two-year warranty—protects against manufacturing defects
