10.1 OPTIONS
Model
Description Of Model 340 Options
3462
Dual Standard Input Option Card.
Adds two standard inputs to the Model 340. The card has
separate A/Ds and excitation for each sensor. A microprocessor on the card manages the A/D and
communication with the Model 340. The card allows the Model 340 to read 4 sensors and use any
1 of the sensors as a control sensor. Includes these features:
• Standard inputs with the ability to select from the front panel to read the following sensors:
Diode, Platinum, Cernox, Rox, Germanium, Carbon-Glass, or any thermistor <30 k
Ω
.
• Adds two additional inputs each with its own excitation and A/D.
• Specifications match the Model 340 standard inputs.
3464
Dual Thermocouple Input Option Card.
Adds two thermocouple inputs to the Model 340. A
microprocessor on the card manages the A/D and communication with the Model 340.
3465
Single Capacitance Input Option Card.
Adds one capacitance input to the Model 340. A
microprocessor on the card manages the A/D and communication with the Model 340.
3468
Eight-Channel Input Option Card.
Adds eight additional inputs to the Model 340. Card has 2
Analog-to-Digital (A/D) Converters, one for each group of 4 sensors and individual excitation for
each sensor. A microprocessor on the card manages the A/D and communication with the Model
340. The card allows the Model 340 to read a total of 10 sensors. Includes the features below:
• Eight channels divided into 2 groups of 4. Several sensor types are supported.
• Eight individual current sources at 10
µ
A or 1 mA depending on sensor selection. Each sensor
is continuously excited.
• Two A/Ds; one for each group.
10.2 ACCESSORIES
Accessories are devices that perform a secondary duty as an aid or refinement to the primary unit.
