Web-enabled temperature input devices available from Firetail DAQ
The web-enabled temperature input device
have announced the release of two web-enabled temperature input devices, the Measurement Computing Corp (MCC) WEB-TEMP and the WEB-TC, which allow users to take
measurements and monitor them through the Internet.
The new products are Ethernet compatible with built-in web servers that write temperature data to their own web page for immediate Internet access.
These new web modules are inexpensive, have accuracy and can be set up in seconds. While typing the unit’s URL, the ready-to-use WEB-TEMP website opens to the temperature page towards an environment that helps in the selection of units, set alarms and configure sensors from the browser. No application development is required.
The WEB-TEMP provides eight temperature input channels, each supporting the common temperature sensors (J, K, R, S, T, N, E, and B thermocouples, 2-, 3-, or 4-wire RTDs, thermistors and semiconductor temperature sensors), and 8 bits of digital I/O. Each channel of the WEB-TEMP is capable of monitoring any of the supported input types. So, the users can mix and match the sensor to the measurement without additional signal conditioning. The internal measurement electronics accuracy of the WEB-TEMP records the accurate data. The WEB-TC specifications are similar to those of the WEB-TEMP, but support thermocouple sensors only.
All the eight WEB-TEMP (or WEB-TC) temperature input channels have 500V DC isolation to the power supply and Ethernet port. The temperature input channels protect both the computer and the input device from damage.
The WEB-TEMP and WEB-TC ship along with an array of software are included in the MCC DAQ Software CD. The disk includes TracerDAQ application, Instacal installation and test utility, universal library and universal labview drivers and libraries to meet the needs of programmers and nonprogrammers alike.
