FORCE MEASUREMENT EQUIPMENT

EDXtreme Red Dynamometer

The EDxtreme can be upgraded for wireless use, enabling the dynamometer to connect
to a handheld Communicator II which allows remote configuration, data acquisition and
single point monitoring of multiple dynamometers.
An RS-232 interface is standard on both the EDXtreme and Communicator II for
connection to a host PC where Dillon data manager real time logging software can reside.

Typical Configurations
1. Standalone EDX for direct measurement applications.
2. Single network with one EDX radio dynamometer and Communicator.
Dynamometers
3. Single network with multiple EDX dynamometers and one Communicator.
The communicator monitors the load at each scale, plus the total weight..
4. Single network with two, three or four Communicators.
5. Multiple networks with multiple EDX dynamometers and Communicators.

Communications unlock the full potential of the EDXtreme
The potential for additional functions is one of the a key reason for choosing an electronic
dynamometer. Both the radio and hardwired options available within the EDXtreme range
offer the convenience and safety of remote operation. Additionally, stored data can be
downloaded to a PC via an RS-232 connection for compilation and analysis or to generate
hard-copy printouts.

Improved radio performance
The EDXtreme radio dynamometer uses leading-edge 2.4Ghz radio frequency technology
to eliminate common interference issues. This spread spectrum technology will establish
and maintain the strongest, most reliable communications within seconds and is plug and
play.

Dynamic monitoring and control
The optional Communicator II is an extremely powerful handheld remote that can define
the function and manage the operation of one or more EDXtreme dynamometers using
wired or radio technologies. Using the programmable SOFTKEY interface, one or more
Communicator II devices can monitor multiple dynamometers within the same airspace.
CP103 Using multiple-link lifting arrays, the Communicator II can display readings at any or all lift
points and calculate the total load.
Optional audible alarm
When safety and load monitoring are paramount, the optional audible alarm adds an extra
level of protection. The alarm sounds when a pre-defi ned load limit has been exceeded,
idealfor situations when the operator may not have sight of the screen.
