XPERT DATALOGGER
In conjunction with the New England District,
US Army Corps of Engineers, Sutron has developed
two new software input blocks for the XPert Datalogger series. The blocks
support several third-party vibrating wire
interfaces and multiplexers. An XPert can
now act as a stand-alone logger for a network
of piezometers, or can act as a concentrator,
relaying data to other system XPerts for
telemetry back to a central location.
INTERFACING TO VIBRATING WIRES
Sutron now offers a family of solutions
for connecting vibrating wires to our loggers.
XPert blocks are available to support:
- GEOKON Model 8020-51 vibrating wire
to voltage converter (single wire with
or without thermistor)
- Canary
Systems VW DSP serial vibrating wire
interface (two wires, with or without
thermistors)
- Canary
Systems MiniMux used in conjunction
with the VW DSP or 8020-51 for up to 32
wires, or 16 wire/thermistor pairs. The
MiniMux can also be used alone for non-vibrating
wire sensors. The VW DSP supports multiple
MiniMuxes, allowing the user to connect
very large wire networks to an XPert.
