- Bifurcated Terminals for easy installation of Shunt Calibration Resistors
- TTCWare Programmable Resistor Report – Inventory of customer installed shunt calibration resistors.
- Operates as an unaddressed unit
- Programmed with Included Windows Based Software
Applications
- Shunt Calibration for Wheatstone Bridge Sensors
The MCDAU-20XX is a miniature, CAIS-compatible data acquisition unit (DAU) for interfacing with a variety of analog/digital sensors and sources.
The ADSR-4003 range are instrumentation recorders with a built-in file server capability.
The TTC NSW-12GT is a rugged 12-port Ethernet switch that enables multicast data to be accurately distributed between nodes with precise timing.
The TTS-9800-2 series multiband, multimode transmitter provides the user with state-of-the-art modulation, forward error correction, and space-time processing compatibility to IRIG-106-15.
The ADAU-2016 is a 16 user-slot Axon chassis, which along with the housing and backplane, includes an isolated 100W power supply for the controller and user modules.
MSCL-116A-1 16-Channel Miniature Shunt Calibration Module
The MSCL-116A-1 is a sixteen (16) Channel Miniature Shunt Calibration Module designed to work with any signal conditioning module which interfaces to Wheatstone Bridge Gauges for use in units such as the Miniature Programmable Data Acquisition Unit – MPDAU-2000. Shunt Calibration is a technique for simulating strain in a Wheatstone bridge circuit by shunting one leg of the bridge. The resulting bridge output is useful for calibrating or scaling instrumentation. All Channels will assert Calibration simultaneously when CAL 2 is enabled on the overhead.
The MSCL-116A-1 can operate as an unaddressed unit; however, the unit will not show up in a system inventory. When given a proper Module Address, the MSCL-116A-1 will appear in a system inventory and will display a Resistor Report containing the values of the customer installed resistors. The customer can input the resistor values into TTCWare and store them in non-volatile memory on the MSCL-116A-1.
Aerospace Instrumentation Brochure
Modern aerospace instrumentation systems can be highly complex, and it can be difficult to know how to meet program needs. It’s not unusual for requirements to change during a campaign and cause significant delays, and data must be captured reliably no matter what – otherwise expensive additional flights will be needed or months of program data could be lost. Read our brochure to learn how you can reduce your risk with commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions.
