Please note: When handling connectors care should be used
to avoid electrostatic discharge to prevent damage to the
electronics. The power pins are reverse polarity protected.
Use caution if fabricating connector and cable assemblies
because the digital I/O lines are not protected from the inad-
vertent application of power.
Following is a description of material included in shipment.
The DXD is available in a variety of standard pressure ranges
and types as specified at time of order. It is configured for
either RS-232, RS-485 or USB operation at the factory as
specified at time of purchase. The output is not field configu-
rable. Please check the product label to ensure that the pres-
sure range and output signal type are correct.
Each DXD is provided with a report of calibration traceable to
NIST. The report is packaged with the transducer.
Software is provided on a Flash Drive (Memory Stick). The
Windows™ compatible (WinXP™, Win7™ or Win10™) soft-
ware simplifies the setup and installation of the DXD. It also
provides powerful data logging and pressure display capa-
bilities. Win7™ and WinXP™ compatible LabVIEW™ drivers
along with the LabVIEW™ Runtime Engine are also available.
The following accessory items are available individually or in
kit form at time of order. These accessories are designed for
use with the RS-232 version of the product. The DXD with
complete kit options includes the following items:
The AC Adapter supplies 12 VDC power @500 mA (Fig.1)
connects to the Serial Port Converter and the DXD Trans-
ducer (s) which are interconnected, forming a “network”. The
DXD has its own regulated power supply (internal DC to DC
Converter) and is protected against spikes and power supply
reversal. Each DXD consumes approximately 300 milliwatts,
or 15 ma at 20 volts. The power supply can be plugged in
anywhere along the network, it does not need to be near
the Serial Port Converter. The contact rating of the RJ11/4
(telephone type) connector is 1.5 amps which provides a fast
economical method of interconnection.
