Introducing the TC-32
The TC-32 is a dual-interface data acquisition device that provides the following features:

32 differential thermocouple (TC) inputs, expandable to 64 channels with
TC-32-EXP expansion device

Two 24-bit ADCs (one ADC per 16 inputs)

TC channels field-to-host isolation

3 S/s per update rate

Support for type J, K, R, S, T, N, E, and B thermocouples, software-selectable per channel

One integrated cold junction compensation (CJC) sensor per TC input

Open thermocouple detection (OTD) to detect faulty TC connections

8 digital inputs, isolated from TC and host

32 digital outputs/alarms isolated from TC inputs and host

DIO connections are made to 50-pin header connector

USB 2.0 or 10/100 Ethernet interface

Powered by the included +5 V external power adapter (PS-5V2AEPS)

Ethernet interface

The TC-32 has a built-in 10/100 BASE-T auto-negotiation, high-speed communication port.
With the Ethernet interface, you can remotely access and configure your TC-32 from anywhere on the network.
Only one computer can control the TC-32 at a time.
A unique media access control (MAC) address is assigned to each device at the factory. You configure the
Ethernet connection settings through software. The network name uses the format
are the lower six digits of the factory-assigned MAC address.

USB interface

The TC-32 is a USB 2.0 full-speed device that is compatible with USB 3.0 ports. The device is also compatible
with USB 1.1 ports.
