H.1 AVW200-Controlled Multiplexer
H.1.1 Direct RS-232 Connection
'This is an example of a program used by a CR1000 and AVW200 to control two AM16/32B multiplexers.
'Sixteen Geokon 4450 VW displacement sensors are attached to each multiplexer and each sensor
'provides a frequency, which is converted to displacement, and resistance, which is converted to
'temperature. Polynomial Gage Factors used in this example were taken from the calibration sheets of
'the individual 4450 sensors. The coefficients used 'to convert resistance to temperature are from the
'Steinhart-Hart equation.
