Web / Press Release For publication Entertron, in conjunction with Electrical Control Technology introduces 16K serial datalogger for use with PLCs.Gasport, NY - July 30, 2004 -- Entertron Industries Inc., the innovation leader in embedded programmable logic controller solutions, in conjunction with Electrical Control Technology (Cary, IL) introduces an inexpensive way to log information generated from a PLC. LoggeR is a serial data logger that interfaces directly to the serial port of the PLC. A total of 16K bytes can be stored. The communications between LoggeR and the PLC is RS232 ASCII. LoggeR was designed to address the need for an inexpensive, low end serial data logger for micro PLCs. Other products either require analog I/O or are considered to be out of the price range for PLCs that cost under $1000.00. LoggeR comes with a utility software package that enables the "dumping" of data from LoggeR to an excel spread sheet. All information stored in LoggeR is controlled by the PLC. LoggeR is not a polling device, but strictly a receiving device. For data that requires to be time / date stamped, a PLC with a real time clock is required. Registers with the time / date information will be sent from the PLC (along with the other data) and stored in LoggeR. When purchasing LoggeR, in conjunction with one of Entertron's ePLCs, the package includes the utility software and an Entertron ePLC cable. One piece OEM price for this package starts at $195.00 US. LoggeR can be used with other PLCs, but does not include the interface cable. For more information about LoggeR, please visit our web site.
