Product Description: Overview
The TC-Link® -6CH -LXRS™ 6 Channel Wireless Thermocouple Node features six standard thermocouple input connectors, an embedded cold junction temperature compensation sensor, and an optional relative humidity sensor. On-board linearization algorithms are software programmable to support a wide range of thermocouple types including J, K, N, R, S, T, E and B. Its form factor allows remote, long term deployment. The node can simultaneously log data to internal memory and transmit real-time data to a host computer at user programmable data rates. Node Commander® software supports configuration of the wireless node including discovery, initialization, radio frequency, sample rate, reading/writing to node EEPROM, calibrating node sensors, managing node batteries including sleep, wake, and cycle power, and upgrading node firmware. The TC-Link® -6CH -LXRS™ is compatible with any WSDA® -Base, WSDA® -1000 or SensorCloud™.
At the heart of LORD MicroStrain®’s LXRS™ Lossless Data Wireless Sensor Networks are WSDA® gateways, which use our exclusive beaconing protocols to synchronize precision timekeepers within each sensor node in the network. The WSDA® also coordinates data collection from all sensor nodes. Users can easily program each node on the scalable network for simultaneous, periodic, burst, or data logging mode sampling with our Node Commander® software, which automatically configures radio communication to maximize the aggregate sample rate. Optional SensorCloud™ enabled WSDA® support autonomous web-based data aggregation.
