Dataforth Continues to Grow MAQ(r)20 System
Dataforth has added two new modules to the MAQ20 Industrial Data Acquisition & Control System. The MAQ20-BRDG1 strain gage module offers 4 input channels and can interface to full, half, and quarter bridge sensors using 4-wire or 6-wire connections. The MAQ20 frequency input module accepts zero-crossing and TTL signals with frequencies from 1Hz to 1MHz plus State Change and provides a DC stimulus for contact sensors. All channels in both modules are individually configurable. According to Robert Smith, VP of Sales & Marketing, these additions "significantly enhance the MAQ20's overall excellence and ability to meet customer requirements."

Dataforth's MAQ(r)20 Load Share Power Supply Module Meets Power Needs
Some Dataforth MAQ20 I/O models deliver significant amounts of power to field I/O devices, and when many of these are used in a single system, power supply requirements may exceed the power output of the Communications module. To meet these high power consumption needs, one or more MAQ20 Load Share Power Supply modules (MAQ20-PWR3) can be installed in any I/O module slot on a single backbone to provide the additional power needed.
