A Plug & Play Smart Load Cell is a Load Cell that is compliant to the IEEE 1451.4 Standard. TEDS, or Transducer Electronic Data Sheet, is a set of electronic data in a standardized format defined within the IEEE 1451.4 standard. This data specifies what type of sensor is present, describes its interface, and gives technical information such as sensitivity, bridge type, excitation, etc. This information is stored in an EEPROM chip attached to a Load Cell. By having this chip, the Load Cell can identify and describe itself to the network and or Smart Load Cell Meter, thereby easing automatic system configuration. With TEDS you will save time. You can interchange any TEDS Load Cell without having to program or calibrate the instrument. It's truly Plug & Play. Transducer Techniques offers four Plug & Play instruments that are compliant with the IEEE 1451.4 Standard, listed below.
