The panelmeter 2071 is designed for serial communication. It uses the simple Nokeval SCL protocol where only the address, value and check sum are sent. The panelmeter has both the
serial inputs RS-232 and RS-485 as a standard. The serial bus is galvanically isolated from the processor and the power supply. In the configuration mode you can set the address, baud rate and the type of number value that you want to appear on the display after power connection.
In industrial environments use of the addressable serial signal RS-485 is always recommended. 31 displays can be connected to one bus and by using a serial data converter (721R), another
31 displays can be added on. The maximum distance of the bus is 1 km. Serial input RS-232 only accepts one display connected to the bus the maximum distance being 15 m. Front
panel protection is IP65.
The panelmeter series 2000 is very flexible and easy to modify by changing input cards for different kinds of sensors, such as temperature sensors, pulse sensors, serial inputs etc. The
modification does not require any calibration. The optional cards are the same for all the instruments in this product family. Each panelmeter type has its own datasheet.
Separate field enclosures can be supplied for 1 to 3 panelmeters. The 2071 is also available in the field display series, model 2800-2071.
