Description
The F2A1X Frequency to Analog module converts a frequency input signal into a proportional analog voltage (0-5 V dc) or current (4-20 mA) output. The output signal is electrically isolated from the input signal and input power source, effectively eliminating troublesome ground loops. The input signal can be supplied from a Monarch sensor (measuring RPM for example) or any source of digital signal not exceeding 12 volts. The F2A1X is factory pre-programmed with the full-scale output and input scale factor of your choice. These settings are also user-configurable with the optional USB Programming Cable and downloadable PM Remote Software. The PM Remote Software also displays data in real-time and allows data to be recorded to your PC in .csv format. The F2A1X requires 12-24 V dc input power.
