SOFTWARE SETUP
Each sensor type must be fully‑defined in the software for the IA1‑M‑V and eDART to provide
accurate data. Always read and perform the following instructions to set up the IA1‑M‑V module in
the
eDART software.
eDART VERSION 9.XX
1.
Select the Sensor Type “0 - 10V Input”
in Sensor Locations and Scaling.
2.
With the motor or machine (depending
on the sensor type) off/in standby,
measure and record the voltage—the
voltage should be displayed in the
“Value” column.
3.
Measure and record the actual voltage
at maximum—the voltage should
be displayed in the “Value” column.
Record the machine value for the
measurement at this time, as well.
For example, if using the IA1‑M‑V to acquire
injection pressure from the machine, record the
machine’s injection pressure displayed on the
controller.
4.
Subtract the low voltage value recorded
in step 2 from the high voltage value
recorded in step 3.
5.
Select the Setup button in Sensor
Locations and Scaling.
6.
Select the sensor model number from
the drop-down menu; if not listed
choose “Other”.

Enter the machine value recorded in
step 3 into the Sensor Full Scale field,
and select the appropriate units of
measurement.
