Networked Absolute Inclinometer
T7
The T7 is available in several interface and protocol options. The physical interface can be RS232, RS485 or US Digital's CAN (Controller Area Network). The protocol can be either US Digital's serial protocol or Modbus RTU. The RS232 version supports a single T7 with up to 100 ft of cable. For users that need longer cable lengths or multiple T7s on a single bus, the RS485 or US Digital CAN (Controller Area Network) version can be used. The USD-CAN protocol allows a network of up to sixty-four T7s to be connected to a single host. Power for each T7 is supplied over the CAN network cable. The host accesses the USD-CAN T7s through US Digital's low cost CANA-232/CANA-485 adapter module. This module allows the host to access each T7 on the network using simple, easy serial port commands, just like the RS232 version. The RS485 version supports up to 32 T7s on the bus.

Serial Production Mark Quality Control
The control system is based on the Sick IVC smart camera, which not only captures, but also processes the image. After training on the font samples, the system practically does not require the operator's attention in addition to setting the current marking for control. The character set can be specified by the operator or transmitted via the interface from the printer or from the enterprise information system.The camera software works autonomously: it loads all settings from the camera's permanent memory, initializes the backlight electronics and waits for a signal from the object presence sensor. When a signal is received from the sensor (an object in the shooting area), the camera captures the frame, searches for markings and analyzes the symbols for their compliance with the exemplary set.

SparkFun Thermocouple Breakout
MAX31855K
The SparkFun MAX31855K Thermocouple Breakout is a simple 14-bit resolution, SPI-compatible, serial interface thermocouple digitizer that makes reading a wide range of temperatures possible. A thermocouple works by taking two wires made of dissimilar metals, connecting them at the two ends, and making a temperature gradient between one end and the other (a 'hot' end and a 'cold' one). Once this is achieved, a voltage potential is formed and current flows. The SparkFun Thermocouple Breakout takes a standard Type-K thermocouple in one end, digitizes the temperature measured and sends that data out the other end via a SPI interface, thereby interpreting the data and translating it for you to read!

Universal Edge Finder
BORDO
No matter what surface condition may be given, our easy to use BORDO detects various edges in incident light and measures their position. The results of the measurement are transmitted with 1/10 mm resolution via a digital or serial interface to a PC or a PLC which now can place the object into the desired position. This makes BORDO being the perfect tool in many lay-down processes such as the alignment of tiles or other pressed goods. Other applications are checks of alignment. BORDO succeeds even under hard onditions e.g. with missing background, if a thickness of at least 5 mm is given. With its lasercross BORDO is fast and simple adjusted. Another ighlight are the selfregulating algorithms , which optimize parameters of easurement while processing.
