SUTRON'S MOST POWERFUL DATALOGGER YET


The Xpert Datalogger/Controller, a high performance data recorder and communications device for UNATTENDED, REMOTE, REAL-TIME DATA ACQUISITION, CONTROL AND COMMUNICATIONS, is a multi-tasking logger capable of making measurements & communicating SIMULTANEOUSLY. Shown Above is Xpert Model 8080-0000-2B


Standard End Plate for all models Xpert

FEATURES

  • 32MB FLASH MEMORY Standard for Log and Config Files Expandable via SD Cards
  • Removable Media Support: SD Cards, MMC Cards, USB Thumb Drives
  • Expandable I/Os
  • UNPARALLELED SENSOR SUPPORT
    The Xpert provides unparalleled sensor support through expansive I/O capabilities and built-in program libraries. The Xpert supports an array of measurement types:

    Single Voltage
    Differential Voltage
    Resistance
    Frequency
    4-20mA
    Counter Grey Code Binary Binary Alarm Binary Smart Serial
    SDI-12 v1.3 RS-232 & RS-485 many more...    

    Many sensors are supported specifically by name using one of the Xpert’s sensor “blocks” from its extensive built-in library. Support for any sensor can be added easily by writing a simple program in Xpert Basic. More complex custom processing tasks can be added by writing a program in C++ (required development tools are available for free from Microsoft).
  • 4 COMMUNICATIONS SERIAL PORTS for SATELLITE TRANSMITTERS, MODEMS, RADIOS & OTHER SERIAL COMMUNICATION DEVICES.
  • MULTIPLE TELEMETRY Options
    • Satellite: GOES, INMARSAT, METEOSAT, INSAT, more!
    • Voice/Data Modem (Cell, CDPD, Land Line Telephone...)
    • LOS RADIO (UHF/VHF, Spread Spectrum...)
    • MODBUS
    • IRIDIUM
  • VIEW DATA, CALIBRATE & ADJUST the Xpert using its LARGE TOUCH SCREEN. Locally or remotely, all Xpert FUNCTIONALITY IS ACCESSED THROUGH COMMUNICATIONS PORTS using easy to-understand set-up, data display & system maintenance GUIs (Accessible remotely via PDA & PC).
  • ROBUST LOGGING & FLEXIBLE MEASURING & TRANSMISSION SCHEDULING
    Logged data storage expandable with SD Cards. Changes to setup do not affect logged data. Logged data is compressed. System events are logged independently of measurement data.
  • Flexible Scheduling
    Each measurement can be independently scheduled. Sample intervals can be increments of 1 second to 24 hours, in 1 second increments. Built-in functions to support min, max, average, and accumulation calculations are provided. Changes to the setup do not affect logged data.
  • Wide Operating Temperature (-40 to +60°C)
  • Built-In Ethernet
  • Event Driven Processing
    Digital inputs can be configured to trigger measurement processing, including logging and telemetry transactions.
  • Robust Display
    The Xpert provides a backlit 1/4 VGA LCD touchscreen display. The display operates from -20 to +60°C. The transflective design of the display enables complete readability in full sunlight.
  • Intuitive Interface
    System setup and configuration is performed using the graphical user interface (GUI), either on the LCD touchscreen display, or remotely using XTerm. The interface is based on Microsoft Windows CE, and so should feel familiar and easy to use.
  • Battery Operated, Low Power (2.5mA quiescent)
  • Secure Access (user names & passwords

Sutron’s XTerm Software, provided with every Xpert, allows the user to remotely program and monitor the logger/controller in order to see the same real-time data whether in his office, on a service call, or 1000 miles away from the station or main office.
