AVW200-series 2-Channel Vibrating Wire Spectrum Analyzer Modules

Check the manufacturer’s specification for the sensors frequency

and excitation range before picking the begin/end frequencies and

excitation voltage.

For example, the following AVW200() instructions can be used to control

two multiplexers:

AVW200(Data1(),Com1,200,200,mux1(1,1),1,1,16,450,3000,2,_60HZ,1,0)

AVW200(Data2(),Com1,200,200,mux2(1,1),2,1,16,450,3000,2,_60HZ,1,0)

Where,

AVW200 connects to datalogger control ports 1 & 2 via 17855 cable

(option Com1)

Each multiplexer has 16 sensors connected to it.

Begin Frequency = 450

End frequency = 3000

Excitation voltage = 12 V peak to peak (option 2)

Read more! A thorough description of the AVW200() instruction and its

parameters is provided in Section 6.1. Complete example programs that

control two multiplexers are included in Sections 7.2, 7.3, and 7.4.1.

For this example configuration, vibrating wire sensors are attached to

multiplexers, which are controlled by an AVW206. The AVW206 interface

transmits the data to an RF401 spread spectrum radio that is connected to the

datalogger.
