4 iRIS 350X and iRIS 350FX Comparison
The iRIS 350FX is an enhanced firmware/software set that can be applied to any existing iRIS 350 or iRIS 350X
datalogger. Primarily this update changes the fundamental datalogging format to floating-point and is built
around a new IEEE-745 2008 compliant library.
Aside from this many other functions have been reviewed and improved. The FX variant will become the
only firmware/software developed and supported in the future for the iRIS 350 hardware.
Because the changes are very significant, the upgraded iRIS 350 / 350X personality is a different model.
Key differences between iRIS 350X and iRIS 350FX
•
Standard IEEE-754-2008 compliant Floating Point library.
•
Datalogging sample values are floating-point. Logging multiplier removed.
•
All timestamping is in UTC to enhance use internationally.
•
Configuration via text terminal removed and only basic terminal diagnostics supported.
•
SDI-12 firmware engine re-engineered and now fully compliant (retries etc).
•
Supports a custom SDI-12 command with a separate schedule from measurements
•
Default RS232 port speed increased from 38,400 to 115,200bps.
•
Sensor logging rate can be different when alarm(s) on that sensors are active.
•
All schedules have separate on/off/alarm intervals.
•
Totalisers: YTD (Year To Date) and Last Year. Settable roll-over time (daily) or date (yearly).
•
Capable of native FTP file transfer (CSV format) to one or two destinations.
(Requires Sierra Wireless Q26 modem)
•
Analogue input ranges are now settable. Nine ranges provided between 0-80mV and 0-5V.
•
Optional linearisation provided using a custom polynominal.
•
Sensor display format is settable (number of decimal places).
•
Support for up to two look-up tables for ratings / conversions.
Supports ad-hoc connection to IP host via extended SMS command (GOL )
•
Multi-language support for internal date/times etc. Five supported (EN, DE, FR, ES, PT)
