great flexibility and for high demands in industrial environment.
The specially developed module case is very robust and can be mounted without tools. The modules can
be placed onto a table or can be clicked onto mounting rails. The electronics satisfies all demands from
practice regarding flexibility, speed and resolution at maximum measuring accuracy.
The address setting on IMBus occurs automatically ( Plug & Play ). The modulare structure of 1 to 512
connections and the possibility to connect the modules via cables with a maximum length of 1200 m
( 4000 ft ) allow an universal use.
A complete range of software for simple applications up to complex measuring applications with control
sequences completes the new IMBus series to an universal tool for measuring data collection, analysis
and displaying.
