In the following chapters we use the block representation of the modules and not the original photos to illustrate the application examples. Legend: imc ARGUSfit provides a complete integration of the imc CANSASfit module series (CANFT) for slower channels, e.g. for temperature measurement.
Page 15 5. Avoid prolonged exposure of the device to sunlight. Due to their function, the imc ARGUSfit modules, just like the CANSASfit modules, are open at the connection points (module connectors). This is not a problem when used in a controlled, dry environment. In order to...
Page 16 Chapter 3 3.3.2 Click mechanism imc ARGUSfit (ARGFT) modules and imc CANSASfit (CANFT) modules can be mechanically and electrically connected by a click-lock, without tools and without additional connecting cables. Before you start connecting the modules together, make sure that no supply voltage is connected.
Page 17 The modules are designed for blocks of max. 8 modules. · The CAN bus is only active on the left module, see the following figure: Fig. 5: Power supply of ARGFT and CANFT © 2023 imc Test & Measurement GmbH imc ARGUSfit - Manual, Edition 1 - 2023-07-10 Page 17...
Page 18 3.3.4 Power supply An imc ARGUSfit system is operated by power that is to fed into the base unit via a socket compatible with LEMO.EGE.0B.302 on the base unit ("POWER"). Power is distributed to the rest of the system via the power backbone across the electrical click connectors between the modules.
Page 19 Notes on connecting Chapter 3 3.3.5 Fiber Converter The Fiber Converter is a clickable module for the modular imc ARGUSfit system. It allows decentralized distributed system topologies. The module converts the internal high-speed ARGUS system bus, which connects the ARGUS measurement amplifiers and interface modules via the click connector, to a fiber-optic data link in the sense of a media converter.
