Spectra

SPECTRA™ External Enclosures

The SPECTRA™ electronic unit is the center of your process monitoring system. Depending on the configuration, it is possible to connect up to eight analogue sensors to the up to two measuring input modules. Via the Profibus- or the Interbus modules, the SPECTRA™ can analyze another eight digital input signals. The control communication between the CNC/PLC controller and the SPECTRA™ unit can be operated by these bus systems. In addition to this, it is also possible to realize the CNC/PLC – SPECTRA™ communication via a CNC I/O module, which uses 24VDC inputs and relay outputs. For process visualization, the SPECTRA™ needs to be connected via Ethernet or a serial link to a PC based control or operating unit.
The SPECTRA™ system is also available as a plug-in PCI-board or as SPECTRA™ Vision, an industrial PC featuring a touch-panel and an integrated SPECTRA™ PCI board.

SPECTRA™ PCI-Card

The SPECTRA™ PCI solution is designed specifically for machines using open-architecture controls.

The SPECTRA™ PCI plug-in card is the center of your process monitoring system. Depending on the configuration, it is possible to connect up to eight analogue sensors to the up to two measuring input modules. Via the Profibus- or the Interbus modules, the Spectra can analyze another eight digital input signals. The control communication between the CNC/PLC controller and the Spectra unit can be operated by these bus systems. In addition to this, it is also possible to realize the CNC/PLC – SPECTRA™ communication via a CNC I/O module, which uses 24VDC inputs and relay outputs. For process visualization, the SPECTRA™ needs to be connected via Ethernet or a serial link to a PC based control or operating unit.
The SPECTRA™ PCI system is also available as external “box”-solution or as SPECTRA™ Vision, an industrial PC featuring a touch-panel and an integrated SPECTRA™ PCI board.
