1.6.3 CHANNEL KEY
The D100S unit can command up to 64 channels. The use of D102/D108 units makes it possible to connect up to 64
P5, P10, P25 or P50 probes. Use of the D104 (for connecting RS232 instruments) is possible for up to 16 Opto-RS
Sylvac instruments.
All the following functions are available for each channel independently:
- any Preset value
- specific tolerance limits
- normal mode, maximum mode, minimum mode, delta mode (max - min) or mean mode (max+min)/2
- storage of values
- measuring direction
- combination A+/-B or A+/-B+/-C
- any multiplication factor including diameter mode
- classification on 2 to 6 classes
Note: when using the display unit with only one probe (without additional accessory units D102/D108/D104), the same
probe can be used for the 64 channels and thus manage up to 64 measurements.
Probe 1 is allocated to channel 1, probe 2 to channel 2, etc. This allocation can be modified, and therefore several chan-
nels may be allocated to a single probe. For example, channel 3 can be allocated to probe 1.
In the case of A+/-B or A+/-B+/-C channel combinations, the active tolerances, preset, multiplication factor, measuring
direction and so on will be those on channel A, i.e. the first channel.
