DESCRIPTION
The DI-45U TIGER CUB meter is the most effective solu-
tion to a wide range of measurement and control applications.
With front panel push button commands, the user can setup the
DI-45U TIGER CUB to display a wide variety of input signals,
including DC volts and current, AC volts and current (average
and Trms), thermocouple, 2, 3, or 4 wire 100 ohm platinum
RTDs, four or six wire Strain Gauge signals (load cells and pres-
sure transducers), 4-20mA process signals and frequency. The
DI-45U TIGER CUB also has dual input modules for DC Volts
and DC milliamps.
Input signals may be displayed as voltage or current, or
scaled to read directly in engineering units (eg. PSI, GPM, FPS,
RPM, lbs., degrees, etc.). Scaling in ˚F or ˚C is programmable
from the front panel. With user selectable 3 or 16 readings per
second, the DI-45U TIGER CUB provides fast control response,
true peak readings and a non-isolated analog output signal that
tracks the input signal.
An isolated 5 or 10VDC excitation is available to power pres-
sure transducers and load cells, eliminating the need for an exter-
nal power supply. 24VDC excitation is available on certain input
signal conditioning modules to power process transmitters.
Options include from one to four high isolation relays to im-
plement alarm setpoints programmed by the user. These outputs
can be set to operate above or below the setpoint and in a
latched or non-latching mode. Time delays and hysteresis of the
output are digitally settable. Optional non-isolated analog outputs
of 0-10VDC or 0-20mA (4-20mA) are available to drive chart re-
corders or remote displays. The non-isolated analog output is
scalable from the front panel.
The third simultaneous output option available is logic level
TTL non-isolated serial output, which enables the DI-45U TIGER
CUB meter to communicate with PLC's or personal computers
using the external Texmate Logic To RS232C Isolated Converter.
Baud rates are software selectable from 200 to 19200.
MeterBoss™ software is available to facilitate meter setup.
