LOAD SENSE

WLS-RI Wireless Load Sensor Receiver Interface
The wireless LoadSense receiver is used in conjunction
with the LoadSense wireless Load Sensor. It provides
the user with an easy way to receive and output data
from the Load Sensor. Enclosed in a hardwearing
aluminium box the receiver is suitable to be installed
into environments where it may be subjected to harsh
conditions.

Software
LoadView is an easy to use advanced load
monitoring software, available to assist data
recording and instrumentation.

The receiver is easy to install as it only requires DC power
to be supplied to the unit. An SMA connector allows the
use of an external antenna.

LabVIEW Vis are available for users to design
their own process control applications.

The receiver outputs a string of data from the Load
Sensor which includes: Serial number, full scale, Load,
Temperature, RSSI and battery voltage. The data is
constantly outputted from the receiver straight from
“power on” as long as the Load Sensor is in range.
The output can be provided as either RS232, RS422,
USB or Analog. This provides the functionality of being
able to send the data over a longer distance if the
receiver was to be in a remote location. The interface
is suitable for applications where no user interaction is
needed and data is fed into a data logger or remote
display.

Features: 3 types of display. Text files compatible
with Matlab and Excel. Real time chart plotting.

DLLs are also available for users to write their
own custom software.

Benefits
Small Footprint (133mm x 67mm x 43.5mm)
Receives data up to a distance of 100m
Receives data at 10 times a second
Analog or digital data outputs
Minimal startup time
Very simple installation
Operates on 2.4GHz licence free band
Technology
The LoadSense Load Transducer works in the
worldwide harmonized band of 2.4 GHz so does not
require a licence to operate and uses advanced
technologies to enable data to be sent and received
error free, these include, forward error correcting and
data whitening.
