Computer interface Model CP22 complements MGCplus multi-channel data acquisition system by allowing rapid communication from sensors. In addition to RS232 serial link, unit includes TCP/IP, 10/100 Mbit Ethernet interface, which allows transmission of over 150,000 measured values/sec, across 64 channels, each operating at 2.4 kHz sample rate. USB 1.1 interface enables transmission of more than 50,000 measured values/sec across 24 channels operating at 2.4 kHz sample rate.

HBM has introduced the CP22 computer interface to complement its MGCplus multi-channel data acquisition system by allowing rapid communication from sensors.

The CP22 is available with three on board interfaces, including an RS232 serial link, to meet every requirement.

For larger networks the TCP/IP, 10/100 Mbit Ethernet is probably the best solution as it allows transmissions of over 150,000 measured values per second, across 64 channels, each operating at a 2.4 kHz sample rate.

Alternatively, the 1.1 USB interface allows transmissions of more than 50,000 measured values per second across 24 channels operating at a 2.4 kHz sample rate.

The USB interface also allows USB printers to be connected enabling measurements to be documented without the need for a PC using either a PCL(HP) or Esc/P (Epson).

The CP22 is designed to automatically recognize tasks and is suitable for synchronizing several MGCplus systems.
