•  The Tiger 320 Operating System supports an easy to use 

PC based Configuration Utility Program (which can be down-

loaded FREE from the Texmate website) and programming 

via front panel buttons.

•  The T Version supports custom macro programs that can be 

easily produced with the Tiger 320 Macro Development System 

(available FREE on the Texmate website).  The Development 

System enables programs to be written in BASIC, which 

can utilize any combination of the hundreds of functions 

and thousands of registers embedded in the Tiger 320 

Operating System.

•  Red, green, or superbright red 7-segment, 0.31” high LEDs 

with full support for seven segment alphanumeric text.

•  6 light bar annunciators to illuminate application specific text.
•  Brightness control of LED display from front panel buttons.
•  Modular construction with more than 120 interchangeable 

input signal conditioners and more than 25 interchangeable 

I/O modules.

•  Up to 4 input channels with cross channel math for multi-chan-

nel processing. 

•  For applications where sensor excitation is required, mod-

ules are provided with 5V, 10V or 24 V DC voltage outputs.

•  On demand tare, calibration and compensation can be initi-

ated by the front panel program button.

•  Autozero maintenance for super stable zero reading is pro-

vided for use in weighing applications.

•  Programmable input averaging and smart digital filtering for 

quick response to input signal changes.

•  Display text editing. Customize display text for OEM applications.
•  Scrolling display text messaging on T meters with macros.
•  Auto-sensing high voltage or optional low voltage AC / DC 

power supply.

•  Serial output options include RS-232, RS-485, ModBus, 

Ethernet, or direct meter-to-meter communications.

•  Single or dual 16-bit Isolated Analog Outputs.  Programmable 

0~4 to 20mA or 0 to 10V for retransmission, 4-20mA loops to 

drive valve actuators, remote controllers & displays, multi-loop 

feedback and PID output.  Scalable from 1 count to full scale.

•  Dual independent totalizers to integrate input signals. 
•  6 super smart, independently programmable setpoints with 8 

selectable functions, including latching, deviation, hysteresis, 

register resetting, tracking and dual PID.  Plus 7 programma-

ble timer modes on all 6 setpoints. 

•  Setpoint tracking, setpoint latching and manual relay reset.
•  Setpoints activated from any input, any register in the meter 

or from any digital input.

•  Plug-in I/O modules include electromechanical or solid state 

relays, logic outputs or open collector outputs.  6 inputs & 16 

outputs of opto-isolated I/O can be connected to an external 

DIN Rail terminal block module.

•  Internal program safety lockout switch to prevent tampering.
•  Peak & valley (max & min) with front panel recall and reset.
•  Real time clock with 15 year Lithium battery backup.
•  Data logging within the meter (up to 4000 samples with date/

time stamp).

•  Optional NEMA-4 front cover.
•  UL Listed
