Microprocessor-Based Multidrop Instruments for Industrial Data Acquisition and Control

The 3500 Series instrument can serve as high-speed COMPUTER OR PLC "FRONT ENDS," in both single-node and multinode (network) environments. As such, they are completely "STAND-ALONE." Each instrument is independently responsible for all of its own local data acquisition and control tasks, providing the supervisory host device with finished measurement answers whenever this data is requested.
