External power sources 0/4 … 20 mA
The EA card is used as input card for up to ten 0/4 … 20 mA
instruments. It powers the sensors and reads in the analogue
measuring signals or switching commands. After the meas-
ured values are preprocessed, they are transferred via the
internal LOGBUS to the CPU card for further processing.
The module card is powered by the common power supply unit
of the VEGALOG system.
The data for power supply are stated in chapter "Technical
data" in the "Supplement".
3.3 Operation
The operation of VEGALOG 571 is carried out via a PC which
can be connected via the RS232 interface of the CPU. As an
alternative, connection via Ethernet and VEGACOM 558 is
possible.
The adjustment software PACTware™ with the corresponding
DTMs is installed under Windows™ and ensures easy
configuration of measuring systems as well as parameter
adjustment of connected VEGA sensors. For this purpose,
PACTware™ provides a clear adjustment interface with menu
