D standard ribbon cable, 10−pin, grid 1.27 mm 1.2 General The MP85/MP85DP module from the PME product line is a two−channel measuring amplifier suitable for connecting the transducers of a great variety of technologies. In the case of the MP85DP, there is also a Profibus interface available for CAN-Interface.
The PME Assistant is the sole means of parameterizing and setting up the MP85/MP85DP module (described in the Online Help). To do this you need an LPT → CAN or USB → CAN interface converter, that has to be ordered separately (1−PMESETUP; 1−PMESETUP-USB).
To prepare the MP85 measurement system for a measurement task, the following conditions must be met or the relevant steps taken: • You need a PME module MP85 or MP85DP and the PME Assistant, including software • The hardware must be configured (transducer, device, PC with the software) (from Page 16) •...
