The QML201C
The Vaisala Data Logger QML201C
incorporates Vaisala’s proven
sensor technology. A 32-bit central
processing unit (CPU), 24-bit A/D
conversion (ADC), autocalibration
of the ADC and measurement
electronics coupled with advanced
data quality control and validation
software all ensure the accuracy of
data measurement.
Easy to use
Sensor measurements, statistical
calculations, data logging and
data transmissions are performed
according to a user-congured
Vaisala Setup Software Lizard. The
software has many setup options and
advanced features.
Expandability
The systems architecture enables the
QML201C to be easily upgraded with
new sensors, calculations, output
formats, and logging schedules at any
time to accommodate users’ changing
requirements.
The basic system provides
RS-232, RS- 485 and SDI-12 ports for
interfacing with almost any type of
telemetry, terminal, displays, and
smart sensors. With optional plug-in
modules the number of serial ports
can be enhanced from 3 up to 9 ports,
enabling multiple RS-232, RS -485,
SDI-12 and Ethernet connections.
The QML201C data logger is also
expandable with a multiplexer unit
offering additional 10 differential
analog channels or even another
QML201C unit. A digital I/O unit adds
8 digital outputs and 8 digital inputs
for sensors, power optimizing and
unmanned control functions based
on user dened requirements.
