DATALOGGING: The OPC Server software makes it easy to integrate the wiSeries
wireless sensor system with many popular Data Acquisition and Automation
programs offered by NEWPORT, OMEGA, Wonderware, iConics, Intellution,
Rockwell Automation, and National Instruments, among others.
PROGRAMMABLE COLOR DISPLAY: The wiSeries features patented
programmable color displays. The display can be programmed to change color at
any Setpoint or Alarm point. For example, the meter can be programmed to display
the process value in	GREEN during warm-up, switching to AMBER to signal the
normal operating range, and in RED to signal an alarm condition. The changes in
color are quickly seen from a distance, and machine operators can intuitively react to
changing conditions. The colors can be programmed to change back when the value
drops back below the alarm point or to "latch" on until being reset by the operator.
The meter can also be programmed to display only one unchanging color: GREEN,
AMBER, or RED. This is a useful way to let an operator identify, at a glance,
temperature values in three separate locations, or to display three different
measurements.
The following example Figure 1.1 illustrates how you can hookup the Temperature
Wireless System to your network:
The wireless system consists of a single Meter and one or more End Devices /
Transmitters. The End Devices will send data periodically to the Meter where it serves
as a gateway between the users and the End Devices. The users can access the data
through the Meter’s Web Server and provided data acquisition software.
A standard web browser can be used to monitor and chart temperature. The browser
can also be used to configure the meter’s IP address, passwords for access and
overall configuration parameters.					COMPUTER
