Temperature alarms
Table 12. Temperature alarm specifications
8 (one per digital I/O line)
Each alarm controls its associated digital I/O line as an alarm output. The input to each
alarm may be any of the analog temperature input channels. When an alarm is enabled, its
associated I/O line is set to output (after the device is reset) and driven to the appropriate
state determined by the alarm options and input temperature. The alarm configurations are
stored in non-volatile memory and are loaded at power on. Alarms will function both in
data logging mode and while attached to USB.
Alarm when input temperature > T1
Alarm when input temperature > T1, reset alarm when input temperature goes below T2
Alarm when input temperature < T1
Alarm when input temperature < T1, reset alarm when input temperature goes above T2
Alarm when input temperature is < T1 or > T2
Note: T1 and T2 may be independently set for each alarm.
Disabled, digital I/O line may be used for normal operation
Enabled, active high output (digital I/O line goes high when alarm conditions met)
Enabled, active low output (digital I/O line goes low when alarm conditions met)
Counter
Table 13. CTR I/O specifications
TTL, rising edge triggered
Counter read/writes rates
(software paced)
Counter read: system dependent, 33 to 1000 reads per second.
Counter write: system dependent, 33 to 1000 reads per second.
Schmidt trigger hysteresis
4.0 V min, 5.5 V absolute max
1.0 V max, –0.5 V absolute min
Note 13: All ground pins are common and are isolated from earth ground. If a connection is made to earth
ground with both the counter (CTR) and conductive thermocouples, the thermocouples are no longer
isolated. In this case, thermocouples must not be connected to any conductive surfaces that may be
referenced to earth ground.
Memory
Table 14. Memory specifications
1,024 bytes isolated micro reserved for sensor configuration
256 bytes USB micro for external application use
