ED3 Upgrade

issue43_ed3.jpgVancouver, WA - US Digital is proud to announce an upgraded version of our low cost ED3 digital display.

This upgrade offers significant enhancements over the previous version, including a more intuitive menu system and several new features, all for the same low price.

Tachometer Mode
A new velocity (tachometer) display mode was added to the ED3 product. The display will now report the encoders velocity in revolutions per time or counts per time. The existing Counter mode function is the same, and the parameter setup has been improved through an easier-to-use user interface. The tachometer is specifically designed to work with two channel quadrature type encoders and can sense direction as well as velocity.

Display Resolution
The Counter and Tachometer display resolution was changed from six digits to seven digits. The scale factor parameter also has the same seven digit resolution.

User Interface
The method for modifying the mode parameters was changed from numeric and bit-flag fields to alpha-numeric scrolling selection windows. The user will no longer need to refer to the manual to set the operating parameter values; each parameter value is described with a text title.

Additional Features:

  • Seven 0.5" high numeric digits with blue backlight
  • Bidirectional counting
  • Programmable scale factor and decimal position
  • Displays signed values from 0.000001 to 9999999
  • Isolated SPDT relay output with programmable set points

Applications:

  • Tachometer
  • Position display
  • Distance display
  • Digital level display
  • Speed zone alarm indicator
