Multi-Controller Features

Multi-Controller Features
The Multi-Controller is a dedicated controller that gets and performs logical operations on
data obtained from multiple Sensor Controllers. This Multi-Controller features completely
digital-based, data corruption-free logic operation capabilities, and outstanding operability
and convenience.
Personal Computer
(1) Supports Connection to Up to 9 Sensor Controllers
Logic operations can be performed on gang-mounted controllers. Information can be
collected and logic operations performed on information from up to nine Sensor
Controllers, which makes the Multi-Controller ideal for multi-point measurement
applications.
(2) Wide Range of Logic Operation Functions
Dedicated expressions such as sandwiched thickness, step and average are
provided in the setup menu. Up to four types of expressions can be stored to memory
as "tasks," which allows you to easily achieve multi-point measurement applications
for performing advanced operations such as measurement of workpiece waviness,
flexure, twist, and warp.

(3) Completely Digitally Based Logic Operation Processing
Logic operations are batch-executed digitally on controller information. Even in multi-
point measurement applications, corruption-free measurement results can be output.
