The latest version of the OWL board is designed as an add-on to our HOUND board, to be modular and give more functionality to your HOUND setup.
The Smart Board “Owl” and the “Analog-Out Board” takes the concept one step further as it provides for the input of 16 analog signals, 16 input digital signals, 16 - 485 inputs for complex vibration data reception, 16 output digital signals and 16 analog output VFD control signals (0-10Vdc - PID).
System Capabilities
The maximum number of Owl boards (254) at full capacity will be able to receive 4064 analog inputs and 4064 input digital signals , 4064 digital output signals, 5080 485complex vibration data reception points, and 5080 output 485 VFD control signals.
The operating software platform supports the OWL in a manner that allows the grouping to range from 52 inputs and 36 outputs (one board) or some multiple of 254 times the one board
Summary Points
Vibration Sensors
16ea 485 inputs for 0 to 10KHz vibration sensors
- X axis, XY axis, or XYZ axis
- Listen from up to 20 vibration sensors at 1 time.Analog Control
16ea 485 outputs for 0 to 10V VFD’s
The Owl controls the variable frequency drives (VFD) that are utilized (either AC or DC) to operate devices at varying output speeds (It can turn the burner up, turn the burner down, turn the humidifier up, turn the dehumidifier up, speed up the conveyor, slow the conveyor down, increase material flow, decrease material flow).Digital Outputs
16 digital outputs through board mounted SS relays
- Turn devices on and off
