NEW Model MPX - PIC Based Measurement Processor

Features - MPX Models 3 & 4

  • Compatible with Standard 10XAS-Series & 10XBR-Series Passline-Independent Sensors. One or Two sensors per processor.

  • On screen graphing of up to four simultaneous width parameters

  • Data collection by internal clock or tachometer input

  • High and Low Operating Limits provided for up to four channels of measurement data

  • Data Logging provided with the ‘Strip Chart’ graphing routines

  • Digital Measurement Readouts available in Imperial or Metric units

  • Full screen mode for distant viewing of any one of four digital screens

  • Network capability to connect directly to a local area network

MPX 1.0 Serial Output of Web Position (Raw Counts)

MPX 2.0 Serial Output, Analog Outputs, Bar Graph Options

Overview

The SCAN-A-LINE™ Model MPX is the next generation of versatile Measurement Processors from Harris Instrument Corporation.

The MPX Models 1&2 can be configured from any computer via a Setup Utility. The MPX Models 3&4 can be configured with the resident computer and custom program . The Model MPX 4.0 uses a SVGA Touch Screen User Interface. The Custom Program operates with all SCAN-A-LINE™ 10X-Series measurement sensors. All sensor configurations are supported.

The Model MPX reduces the need for changing measurement interface boards, hardware jumpers, internal cables and connectors, or other hardware. This simplifies application specific configurations.

Facilities with multiple SCAN-A-LINE™ measurement systems can stock fewer spare parts.

Configurations

  • Single Sensor Width (First edge to Last edge)

  • Single Sensor Dual Strip Width

  • Single Sensor Quad Width

  • Single Sensor Edge Analog

  • Single Sensor Centerline Analog

  • Single Sensor Quad Width Analogs

  • Single Sensor Passline-Independent Width

 

  • Dual Sensor Width (First edge to Last edge)

  • Dual Sensor Centerline Analog

  • Dual Sensor Passline-Independent Width

Model GPU - General Processing Unit

Features

  • Compatible with SCAN-A-LINE™ EG-30A & 10XAS Sensors

  • Various Analog Outputs on All Units except Level Two (type of output dependent upon unit model level).

  • Left/Right Limit Relays Available (requires optional Bargraph Display – BGA Option).

  • Switching Power Supply (±12VDC regulated for sensors and 5VDC regulated for logic circuits) and signal routing for up to two SCAN-A-LINE™ sensors. System Power: Universal 90 - 240VAC UL1950, FCC Class C.

  • Model GPU Enclosure Dimensions: NEMA-style Steel 12" [305mm] wide x 14" [356mm] tall by 6" [152mm] deep.

Overview

The SCAN-A-LINE™ General Processing Unit – Model GPU Is a basic processor designed to provide operating power, a convenient enclosure and interface point for a host of Harris electronic circuit boards and sensors. There are three main configurations for the Model GPU using 10XAS-Series Sensors:

Level 3: For use with single 10XAS-Series sensors; 0 - 10VDC Absolute Width Analog & ±10VDC Deviation Centerline Position Analog Output.

Level 4: For use with single sensor (edge guide - ONLY) or dual sensor 10XAS-Series sensors; 0 - 10VDC Absolute Edge Position Analog & ±10VDC Deviation Centerline Position Analog Output.

Level 5: For use with dual 10XAS-Series sensors; 0 - 10VDC Absolute Edge Position Analog, ±10VDC Deviation Centerline Position Analog & 0 - 10VDC Width Analog Output.

Options

Absolute-to-Bipolar (ABC Option): For EG-Series sensors: Changes 0-10VDC signal to ±10VDC signal.

Auto-Zero (AZ Option: For 10XAS-Series sensors: Sets any strip position as a reference position (Levels 4 & 5).

Bargraph Display (BGA Option: Visually represents difference between a predetermined strip position and the detected strip
position. Includes annunciators and limit relays.

Line Driver (LDR Option): Converts sensor signals for routing to another SCAN-A-LINE™ processing unit up to 3000' [914m].

4/20 Current Loop (4/20 Option): 4/20mA Current Loop routes analog signals from Model GPU over long distances. Single or Dual configuration available.

First Edge Video (FEV Option): Pre-processor to detect the first edge viewed, ignoring all other edges.
