LYNX FAMILY: More than 33 different Plug-in 

I-Series Input Signal Conditioners are approved for
Texmate’s Lynx Family of meters. As shown on
pages 4 to 5.

See www.texmate.com for an up to date listing.

31 segment AC/DC powered modular compact bargraph.

1/16 DIN (96 x 24mm ) case easily mounts in thin or thick 
panels (up to 2”).

Red (std), green (optional) or amber (optional) colors.

Vertical or horizontal formats.

External transmitters or signal conditioners can be eliminated
by directly connecting the sensor to more than 33 I-Series
Plug-in Input Signal Conditioning Modules that include:

A versatile, modular bargraph with optional single or dual setpoints.

BX-B31

Lynx Bargraph Meter

31 LED Segments

in a 1/16 DIN Case

Pre-calibrated I-Series Input Signal Conditioning modules, that
have span or zero potentiometers, can be interchanged between
any I-Series compatible meter, without recalibration, because all
of the analog scaling and reference circuitry is self-contained with-
in the module.

24 V DC excitation is available to power external transmitters 
and 5 or 10 V DC excitation is available for strain-gages, load
cells and resistance bridge type sensors.

High voltage power supply (PS1) 85 - 265VAC / 95 - 370VDC
Low voltage power supply (PS2) 15 - 48VAC / 10 - 72VDC

Optional single or dual setpoints with easy adjustment
from the front.

Dual 5A Form “A” relays or one 5A Form “A” and one 10A
Form “C” relays.

Easy configuration of relays as high or low setpoints.

Proportional brightness mode for increased effective opti-
cal resolution.
