Typical connection example
Connecting to a network makes it possible to collect and manage various information from loggers and recorders. This allows for the construction of systems for remote status monitoring, changeovers, and more.
The following example includes a network-connected recorder.
Linking with control equipment
Temperature data recorded and displayed using the recorder can be imported to the PLC for temperature control. Calculations such as PID control within the PLC can also be performed.
