General Information

The PC-Logger 3150 is a very versatile addition to our line of Analog to
ASCII Converters. It will cover the medium measuring rate range: up to a 1000
times per second.
Input ranges are +/-10V; +/-1000mV; +/-100mV; +/-50mV; 20mA.
Pulse counters are available as an optional add-on.
An PC-Logger 3150 together with software and a personal computer
constitutes a powerful data acquisition system.
The main use is off-line when an internal memory (optional) of the PC-Logger
3150 stores data for later transferral to computer.
On-line use is also possible but is limited by the performance of connected
computer. Max speed has to be determined by experiment.
Main features are :
• 8 analog inputs
• Programmable ranges on all inputs
• 12 bit ADC
• Off-line memory data storage (optional)
• Trigger input and output
• Auxiliary voltage output
• Programmable sampling interval: 1ms to 1000ms
• Fully compatible with all INTAB logger software
The scope of this manual is to enable the user to correctly connect sensors and
transducers and use the PC-Logger 3150 off-line.
How the PC-Logger 3150 is handled using our software and a PC is explained
in the program manual and by the program itself by its user-friendly and self-
explanatory menus.
For best use and best results it is ABSOLUTELY essential that this
manual is studied in its entirety. Special emphasis should be put on
studying chapter 3 which describes how to connect transducers and other
signal sources.
