Texmate Tiger 320 Series Manual

G e n e r a l Fe a t ur e s
• The Tiger 320 Operating System supports an easy to use
PC based Configuration Utility Program, which can be
downloaded FREE from the web, and programming from
front panel buttons.
• The T Version supports custom macro programs that can be
easily produced with the Tiger 320 Macro Development
System (available FREE on the web). The Development
System enables programs to be written in BASIC, which
can utilize any combination of the hundreds of functions and
thousands of registers embedded in the Tiger 320
Operating System.
• Red or green 7-segment, 0.31" high LEDs with full support
for seven segment alphanumeric text.
• Brightness control of LED display from front panel buttons.
• 51 segment red or green bargraph that can display the sig-
nal from any of four channels or the result of a processed
input signal.
• Modular construction with more than 120 interchangeable
input signal conditioners and more than 25 interchangeable
I/O modules.
• Up to 4 input channels with cross channel math for multi-
channel processing.
• For applications where sensor excitation is required, mod-
ules are provided with 5V, 10V or 24 V DC voltage outputs.
• On demand tare, calibration and compensation can be initi-
ated by the front panel program button.
• Autozero maintenance for super stable zero reading is pro-
vided for use in weighing applications.
• Programmable input averaging and smart digital filtering for
quick response to input signal changes.
• Display text editing. Customize display text for OEM appli-
cations.
• Scrolling display text messaging on T meters with macros.
• Auto-sensing high voltage or optional low voltage AC / DC
power supply.

Programmable Meter Controllers
Tiger 320 Series PMCs
in a 1/8 DIN Case
• Serial output options include RS-232, RS-485, ModBus,
Ethernet, DeviceNet or direct meter-to-meter communica-
tions.
• Single or dual
Programmable 0~4 to 20mA or 0 to 10V for retransmission,
4-20mA loops to drive valve actuators, remote controllers &
displays, multi-loop feedback and PID output. Scalable from
1 count to full scale.
• Dual independent totalizers to integrate input signals.
• 6 super smart, independently programmable setpoints with
8 selectable functions, including latching, deviation, hys-
teresis, register resetting, tracking and dual PID. Plus 7 pro-
grammable timer modes on all 6 setpoints.
• Setpoint tracking, setpoint latching and manual relay reset.
• Setpoints activated from any input, any register in the meter
or from any digital input.
• Plug-in I/O modules include electromechanical or solid state
relays, logic outputs or open collector outputs. 6 inputs & 16
outputs of opto-isolated I/O can be connected to an exter-
nal DIN Rail terminal block module.
• Internal program safety lockout switch to prevent tampering.
• Peak & valley (max & min) with front panel recall and reset.
• Real time clock with 15 year Lithium battery backup.
• Data logging within the meter (up to 4000 samples with
date/time stamp).
• Optional NEMA-4 front cover.
