The CSMSTR is a communications and control platform designed for use with Modular Controller Series slave modules. These modules use a high-speed serial protocol to communicate, via backplane connections, with up to 16 slave modules. When powered up, the CSMSTR automatically identifies and addresses connected slave modules. By storing configuration information, the data loggers can automatically configure modules if they are replaced.
• Provides enhanced features for data acquisition or multi-zone PID applications • Performs hierarchical control of other modules • Extensive built-in driver list allows easy data mapping to PLCs, PC's and scada systems • Independent serial ports provide unlimited integration methods • 10 base-T/100 base-TX ethernet connection • CompactFlash® slot allows process data to be logged directly to CSV files
