Simple configuration, easy programming and supported by major DA & C packages - these are just a few reasons to use Advantech's ADAM 4000 modules.
The 4½ digit LED display on the back of the ADAM-4014 lets you monitor process readings right at their source. The module displays readings in a wide variety of data formats as well as high-low alarm messages. The ADAM-4014D offers flexibility, ease of installation and direct availability of process data.
The ADAM-4014D includes an isolated loop power source. This lets you drive 2- or 3-wire transmitter with out an external power source. The module provides individual power loops for each channel, simplifying wiring while maintaining isolation between connected transmitters.
The ADAM-4014D can convert linear input to engineering units and show them on its built in LED display(direct display). When the input is nonlinear, data is first sent to the host computer for conversion to engineering units. The host computer sends the data back to the ADAM-4014D to show the module's LED display (remote display).
ADAM's built in checksum feature ensures data integrity by detecting communication errors. This feature adds two checksum characters to every command or response string that enable you to verify that the message received is exactly the same as the message sent.
Easy-to-use menu-driven utility software make configuration and calibration a snap. Its terminal emulation program lets you easily read from and write to ADAM modules. Writing application programs with this software (GENIE 2.0) is simple, you can learn the basics in just a few minutes.
