Product Overview

 

The RFPulse2000A is a wireless data logger that records pulse output signals from various 
sensors such as flow meters and anemometers. When started, the data logger samples at 
100Hz and at the user specified reading rate.

The RFPulse2000A features a display screen which provides instant access to the current 
reading, minimum, maximum and average statistics. Through the software the device  
can be programmed to convert the pulse output into a different unit of measure such as 
gallons per minute or miles per hour. This information is available on the LCD screen of the 
data logger as well as in the software. 

The RFPulse2000A is unique in that it not only calculates pulse count, but it also calculates 
pulse rate. Engineering units can be programmed into the device as a rate, which allows 
the device to calculate the measurement unit in rates per second, minute, hour or per  
day. This provides more useful statistics to the user when data logging over long periods  
of time.
 

Selection Buttons

The logger is designed with 3 direct selection buttons: Scroll, Units and Wireless.
• 

Scroll:

 Allows user to scroll through current readings, average stats and device status

   information displayed on the LCD Screen.

 Units:

 Allows user to change displayed units of measure to pulses per sec/min/hour/day/

total number of pulses.

 Wireless:

 Push and hold this button for 5 seconds to activate or deactivate wireless  

   communication.

 Manual Reset Option:

 Allows user to manually reset the statistics within the device to 0

   without needing to use the MadgeTech software. Any data recorded up to that point is     
   recorded and saved. 

LED Indicators

• 

Status:

 Green LED blinks every 5 seconds to indicate unit is logging.

• 

Wireless:

 Blue LED blinks every 15 seconds to indicate unit is operating in wireless mode.

• 

Alarm:

 Red LED blinks every 1 second to indicate an alarm condition. 

Connecting Information

Port Information

The RFPulse2000A data logger terminal ports are located on the bottom of the device, one 
positive and one negative. RFPulse2000A provides an internal pull up 2.88V@ 250uA.

Note about polarity: If the input signal has an external power supply, (I.E. a 9V Logic) connect 
the (+) to the 9V and the (-) to the ground connection. Maximum input Voltage is 30V. If the 
internal pull-up is sufficient, connect the (+) to the internal positive and the (-) to the ground. If 
a connection to a switch is desired, either port can be used.
