Can I connect third party sensors to my sensorProbe, or securityProbe?
Yes, actually, one of our greatest strengths is AKCP can provide a data collection center for many different third party sensors. Using our 4-20mA intelligent sensor, we can interface to … Read More
Can I connect a third party sensor using the 4-20mA sensor if it outputs more than 5 VDC?
Can I connect third party sensors with 4-20mA sensor? You can apply more than the 5VDC, but you need to be careful not to exceed the 20mA current. The 4-20mA … Read More
What is the accuracy of a 4-20mA converter?
The accuracy of our 4-20mA converters is 2%. The resolution of our 4-20mA converters is 0.1mA. You can use these figures in conjunction with your sensor?s accuracy to find the … Read More
How do I configure my securityProbe8-X20 extra dry contacts as opto isolated?
This diagram below is showing you the jumper setting for setting up your dry contact inputs to the opto-isolated setting.
I see that my new securityProbe5E is expandable using these four expansion ports on the front of the unit and these new expansion modules? What types of modules are available?
We offer two types of expansion modules. The first is the E-sensor8 expansion module and it has 8 RJ-45 Intelligent sensor ports just like the ports on the back of … Read More
Can the E-opto16 dry contact expansion modules be configured for inputs and outputs and how much voltage can I apply to these? Does the opto? mean opto isolated?
The E-opto16 dry contact expansion modules can only be used as inputs, just like the extra dry contact inputs on the secuirtyProbe8-X20. Yes, the opto? in the product name means … Read More
Can the expansion modules be daisy chained together, if so how many expansion modules can be connected to a single securityProbe 5E?
Yes, the expansion modules can be daisy chained together using the RJ-45 input and output ports with normal CAT5 Ethernet cable. There really is no limitation to the amount of … Read More
How far can I extend the expansion modules using the CAT5 cable? Is the total run length from the base units or is it between the expansion modules and what is the data transfer rate?
The maximum run length of the expansion modules is 1000 feet. This is not the total run length. This is between the base unit and the expansion modules, or from … Read More
Can I reset my securityProbe 5E back to the factory default settings? If so, how is this done?
Yes, you can reset the securityProbe 5E back to the factory defaults by clicking on the “Clear All User Data and Restore Original Settings” button from the Settings tab >> … Read More
