The Legend unit (LGB) is a two input,
microprocessor-based device which features
process, batch, and total counting, as well as a time
interval rate indicator. Four presets are available,
two of which are assigned to the process counter
and the other two assignable to the batch, total or
rate indicator. The internal count precision is
maintained to 9 digits.
The RS485 serial communication port provides
for computer and printer interface that extend the
capabilities of the unit. It can be used for data
retrieval and for programming various data values.
Optional Legend Programming Software
(SFLGP) for IBM
®
compatible PCs is available to
program all of the Legend configuration
parameters, such as User Inputs, Count modes, etc.
The software allows unit configurations to be
created, uploaded, downloaded, and saved to a file
for rapid programming of the Legend unit.
Application flexibility is provided through the
two-line by eight-character alphanumeric display.
The display features English language menus for
easy viewing and simplified programming. The
four scroll-through indication displays can be
