Laureate™ 1/8 DIN Digital Panel Meter Remote Displays
(or Serial Input Meters) are slave displays which accept RS232, RS485 or USB data from computers, programmable controllers, Laureate instruments, or other devices with a streaming serial data output. They can also provide relay closures and an analog output based on the received readings. They blend in with 1/8 DIN Laureate digital panel meters, counters and timers to provide a numeric 6-digit display from -999,999 to +999,999.
All signal conditioner board ranges are factory-calibrated, with calibration factors for each range securely stored in an onboard EEPROM. These factors can be scaled via software to accommodate external shunts, enabling field replacement of signal conditioner boards without necessitating recalibration of the associated digital panel meter. For optimal accuracy, factory recalibration is recommended annually. All Laurel Electronics instruments undergo factory calibration using the industry-leading Fluke calibrators, which are recalibrated yearly and certified traceable to national standards, ensuring the highest level of precision and reliability.
Streaming serial data can be generated at rates up to 9600 baud by a weighing scale or other instrument. In particular, it can be generated by a Laureate digital panel meter, counter/timer or transmitter. A Remote Display can duplicate the reading of that instrument, or it can be used to display additional data items which can be transmitted serially, but which cannot be shown simultaneously on a single display. For example, while a Laureate counter can only display one selected parameter at a time (such as rate A), it can transmit multiple parameters (such as rate A, rate B, ratio A/B and peak). The Remote Display can be set up to display any serially transmitted item, and an indicator light shows which item has been chosen for display.
Setup of the Remote Display uses Laurel’s free Instrument Setup Software. Selectable modes allow easy interface to other Laureate instruments and extract 1, 2 or 3 data items. For other instruments, readings can be extracted from streaming ASCII strings that contain multiple data values and non-numeric characters, such as Start and Stop characters. Any number of characters between the Start character and the data can be masked Off. Up to 8 display characters (including sign and decimal point) can be masked On. Any number of characters between the last displayed character and the Stop character can be masked Off.
An optional (isolated) analog output board allows the Remote Display to serve as a highly accurate digital-to-analog converter and transmitter.
An optional relay output board with 2 or 4 relays can add remote alarm or control capability. The relays can be 8A contact relays or opto-(isolated) 120 mA AC/DC solid state relays. The relays can respond to the transmitted values or to any of 8 serially transmitted control characters. The control characters can be generated by a Laureate meter, counter or timer, thereby assuring that the local and remote alarm points are identical.
Modular Design for Maximum Flexibility at Minimum Cost
All boards are isolated from meter and power grounds. Optional Plug-in-Play boards for communications and control include Ethernet, WiFi, serial communication boards, dual or quad relay boards, and an analog output board. Laureates may be powered from 85-264 Vac or optionally from 12-32 Vac or 10-48 Vdc. The display is available with bright red or green 0.56" (14.2mm) high LED digits. The 1/8 DIN case meets NEMA 4X (IP65) specifications from the front when panel mounted. Any setup functions and front panel keys can be locked out for simplified usage and security. A built-in 5, 10, 12, or 24 Vdc excitation supply can power transducers, eliminating the need for an external power supply. All power and signal connections are via UL / VDE / CSA rated screw clamp plugs.
The Laureate™ Series features modular design with up to 7 isolated plug-in boards, applicable to all Laureate 1/8 DIN Digital Panel Meters.
Modular Hardware
The design of the Laureate™ Series is modular for maximum flexibility at minimum cost. All boards are isolated from meter and power grounds. The base configuration for a panel meter or counter consists of a main module (with computer and plug-in display boards), a power supply board, and a signal conditioner board. Optional plug-in-play boards include an isolated setpoint controller board, an isolated analog output board, and an isolated digital interface board. Modular design and a choice of plug-in options allow the Laureate to be customized for a broad range of applications from simple monitoring to control and computer interface. There can be up to five plug-in boards in a 1/8 DIN Laureate.
Connecting Laureate Digital Panel Meters to a Local Area Network (LAN)
Up to 30 Laureate Digital Panel Meters and/or LT Transmitters can be configured for RS485 and daisy-chained to an LT Transmitter using Laurel’s High Speed Ethernet-to-RS485 converter board for seamless LAN integration. Alternatively, Laurel LTE series Ethernet transmitters can connect directly to a LAN via an Ethernet cable. Setup for both configurations is streamlined using Laurel’s free Instrument Setup Software, which simplifies node discovery and transmitter configuration.
Flexible Communication Options for Digital Panel Meters
Laureate Digital Panel Meters can be equipped with Laurel communication boards to support various interfaces and protocols. These include serial interfaces with ASCII or Modbus RTU protocols, and Ethernet interfaces with web access, ASCII, or Modbus TCP/IP protocols, ensuring versatile connectivity for your commercial applications.
