    What is the best analog input? 1-5V or 4-20mA

    Another reason to use 4-20 ma is for explosion proof applications, with fusing and voltage limiting as to stay below max VA power limits for group and division clasification. Source series fused at say .05 A and followed by a Transorb AC clamp diode, intrinzic safty block. Dennis McHenney...

    electrons

    1) Each atom trys to keep the same number of electrons circling it's nuculus, staying in balance with other surrounding atoms. But the actual number is dynamic. 2) An outer ring FREE electron flys out of orbit in one atom and FLOWs to another atom that attracts and captures it into orbit. A...

    ENCODER/PLC INTERFACE

    For a GE VersaMax micro the first 8 HS inputs are configured as an A-Quad-B quadature input with A, B and HOME signals being applied. Examples are in the HW and VersaPro SW manuals. You get: Angular POSITION (EXAMPLE, for 360 line encoder = 1 / 1440 per revolution, 1/4 deg) Direction of...

    EE needs NOISE test help

    EE needs NOISE test help I am looking for a low cost off the shelf equipment to do production NOISE testing of small motors and gearmotors as part of an EOL functional one output shaft revolution test. The output would feed a GO-NO GO result to PLC input(s) or via PLC serial port. After 2.5 to...

    Low End Off the shelf FFT needed

    <dmchenney@merkle-korff.com> Has anyone ever used a PC sound card and the available share/freeware,or very low cost SW to do this? I know this is an option, but not sure how good it is? Can an OFF THE SHELF noise cancellation microphone system be used as a front end? Dennis McHenney...
