Overview

The ModuLogger is a modular, self-contained data logging and alarming system designed for collecting data from field installed equipment as well as for in-lab data collection. With its modular design and lower cost packaging the ModuLogger is a perfect data acquisition module for OEM's to integrate into their equipment for:

  1. Characterizing performance of field installed equipment (appliance operation, pump loading, etc)
  2. Inventory, flow, temperature Reporting Systems
  3. Field equipment operational alarming (eg Overtemp, low level, ...)

As a self-contained, battery or line-powered, stand-alone unit, the ModuLogger can be deployed at a location or incorporated into equipment where it silently samples digital and analog inputs, storing them to internal or PCMCIA memory. Easily programmed, the Modulogger has extremely powerful processing capabilities for data reduction (averaging, min/max, etc) mathematical manipulation (algebraic, trig, time integrals, etc), as well as unlimited, User programmable, intelligent data logging capabilities.

With full differential, bi-polar instrumentation amplified inputs (zap protected), programmable filtering, 13 to 18 bit analog to digital conversion, and sampling rates in excess of 150 S/S, the ModuLogger is a true precision grade data acquisition instrument.

In concert with Logic Beach's HyperWareT software, the Modulogger is a powerful, fully User programmable data logging and alarming system. The HyperWare software is a powerful multi-purpose software package for use with the ModuloggerT. HyperWare facilitates serial communications, Modulogger icon-based graphic programming, real-time data trending, collected data graphic plotting and data export to other applications...all within the Microsoft WindowsT environment.

A ModuLogger data logging system consists of the ModuLogger CPU Base, an assortment of stackable Interface Modules (I/M's), the HyperWare Software and possibly other optional equipment. The CPU Base Base consists of a two layer stack and includes the electronics for the core of the data logger including the main microcontroller, analog to digital conversion circuitry, memory, real-time clock, a basic set of inputs and outputs and associated support circuitry.

The Modulogger consists of a User specified stack of ruggedly packaged, plug-together, rectangular modules. To the main CPU module can be added communication, additional analog input, digital I/O, display and memory expansion modules to meet your specific application needs.

Interface Modules

ML-CPU Module
System Base - This double height stack is required for all ModuLogger systems. To this System Base can be added additional modules and options. The ML-CPU includes four channels of analog input. Channels can be individually field programmed to accept J, K, E, T, R, and S type thermocouples, voltage up to 30Vdc and current up to 22mADC.
Option -EXM
Memory Expansion - Expanded memory option for the ModuLogger System Base. This factory option expands internal logger memory from 16,000 samples to 80,000 samples.
MLIM-1
Analog Input Module - Plug-on module provides four channels of analog input. Channels can be individually field programmed to accept J, K, E, T, R, and S type thermocouples, Voltage up to 30Vdc and Current up to 22mADC.
MLIM-2
Event / Count / Freq I/O Module - Plug-on module provides four digital channels that can be individually programmed as frequency, event, high-speed counter inputs and four fixed TTL (0/5Vdc) outputs.
MLIM-4
Resistance Input Module - Plug-on module provides four channels that can be individually programmed for resistance, RTD, or thermistor input.
MLIM-5
Memory Card Module - Plug-on module includes socket for removable memory cards.
MLIM-5-144 Plug-on module includes socket for removable memory cards and integral low-power, plug and play 14.4Kbaud modem. (Modem does not use the memory card socket)
MLIM-7
Isolated Analog Input Module - Plug-on module provides four pairs of completely isolated channels of analog input or 8 channels (4 pairs of 2 with shared common). Channels can be individually field programmed to accept J, K, E, T, R, and S type thermocouples, Voltage up to 30Vdc and current up to 22mADC. MLIM-7 offers 18 bit resolution!
MLIM-8
Digital I/O Module - Plug-in module provides eight channels that can be individually programmed as inputs (typically for event logging) or TTL outputs (0/5Vdc).
ML-DISP
Display Module - Plug-on module adds a two-line by 16 character liquid crystal display and relocates User switches to the front panel. Displayable messages include current readings, last stored data, User programmed messages, and logger operational status. Module installs on top. Order ML-TOP if display is not required.
ML-BATT Battery pack option. Includes 6 alkaline D-Cells in holders, typically providing 1 to 3 months of autonomous data logging. Order ML-BAK if batteries are not required.
ML-PSM2
Power Supply Module - Plug-on module that provides a low-power step up power supply for applications requiring sensor or loop power/excitation greater than the ModuLogger's internal 5Vdc source. The ML-PSM2 can provide 10, 15, or 24Vdc excitation voltages stepped up from an external power source.
ML-BATT-PSM2
Battery Pack and Power Supply Module - ML-BATT combined with ML-PSM2. This module can logger power and 10, 15, or 24Vdc excitation voltages stepped up from the ModuLogger system batteries. Order ML-BAK if batteries are not required.

Ordering Information

Each item for the ModuLogger system is ordered separately. Start with the ML-CPU or ML-CPU-EXM and add up to 5 additional I/O interface modules, MLIM-1 through MLIM-8, for a system specific to your application. The optional battery pack and display do not count as any of the 5 additional modules. If a battery pack and display are not required, order a ML-BAK and ML-TOP respectively.

Order at least one Combo Pak. Multilogger users do not need to order additional copies of the software, manuals and connectors. These items may be shared between loggers.
