Description

The IA300 interface adapter InfoPrint is an intelligent device designed especially to collect data from different COMECO instruments equipped with RS485 interface and net addresses. IA300 supports up to 32 devices, connected into a RS485 net and combined in 8 groups, thermal serial printer, and RS232 communication with PC. The information collected during the data-acquisition process can be used for: The information collected during the data-acquisition process can be used for:
– printing up to 4 process charts on-line and up to 8 charts off-line;
– data logging in the adapter memory and off-line downloading to PC for further processing.
The IA300 electronics is equipped with 6 LED indicators (for power and communication modes) and convenient keyboard, all mounted in a plastic enclosure with IP54 front protection. All configuration procedures (including real-time clock) can be easily programmed with the “InfoPrint Command Interface” software. With its attractive price and enhanced capabilities, the IA300 interface adapter InfoPrint is a powerful solution for building multi-point monitoring systems.
