General Characteristics
The iRIS 350FX is supplied in an environmentally sealed (IP66) enclosure constructed from a special corrosion-
resistant aluminium alloy that is finished in a hard-anodised coating. This provides a very high degree of
mechanical strength and EMI shielding, and enables completely stand-alone mounting in outdoor situations.
The unit comes standard with an integral 12V gel-cell battery, membrane keypad and a 4 lines x 19 characters
(plus icons) LCD.
The iRIS 350FX supports a maximum of twenty external sensors (1-20). Sources for these sensors may be
chosen from physical digital or analogue inputs or virtual sources (via serial communication or calculations).
Sources may also be from internal measurements (battery voltage, supply voltage, temperature and RSSI).
Each sensor has six associated alarms, each with separate trigger and reset levels. Each alarm also has a
duration, which is used to delay the alarm trigger for analogue inputs and to determine the time over which
pulse input counters should be totalised (rainfall etc).
Data from all enabled sensors are logged in a four word (8 byte) compressed format which includes full date
and time stamp to a 1 second resolution. The iRIS 350FX supports SDI-12 communication with a range of
industry standard intelligent sensors.
A variant of the iRIS 350FX which is designated the iRIS 350FXV offers voice annunciation of sensor values
using the voice bearer of the wireless service.
The iRIS 350FX supports the connection of a proprietary serial camera, the iRIS-CAM. This enables the iRIS to
capture colour images which can be unloaded in the same way as logged data. Due to resource limitations,
the iRIS 350FXV is unable to support the iRIS-CAM in conjunction with the voice feature.
