UCAM-60B
UCAM-65B

Can measure up to 20000 μm/m with a resolution as high as 0.1 μm/m. (※When using for Full bridge system)
The data logger UCAM-60B is an all-in-one measuring instrument developed in full pursuit of easier field measurement. Easy to operate keys, a bright readable display providing understandable presentation and a printer for immediate confirmation of measurement results. All these and more are incorporated in this compact unit to satisfy every need in field measurement. The UCAM-65B is a compact online data logger fully controlled through the PC. Both models can connect to, and simultaneously input signals from, strain gages, strain gage transducers, civil engineering transducers with temperature measuring function, potentiometer sensors, thermocouples and DC voltage-output instruments. They are also compatible with TEDS-installed sensors having information conforming to IEEE template No. 33. While measurement in a maximum 30 channels is possible with the mainframe only, external scanners enable measurement in a maximum 1000 channels. Measured results are stored in internal memory. And for easy data transfer to PC, measured results can also be saved in a flash ATA card or CF card inserted into the PC card slot. Furthermore, Ethernet LAN and RS-232C interfaces are provided standard for connection to the PC, and the control software UCS-60B enables the PC to not only control the UCAM-60B/65B but also perform data processing for rosette analysis, etc. in the field by directly collecting data.

Automatic Measurement Functions
Trigger Measurement

A relative value (certain changing quantity) or an absolute value triggers measurement. In addition to the usual trigger function,

a variable trigger function is provided with which the trigger value changes at each step during measurement. With this special function,

a trigger value and the number of measurement times (repeat times) under the trigger condition can be registered for each step to perform

a series of automatic measurements in the order of steps.

The maximum number of steps available for setting is 15 and the number of repeat times may be a value selected from a range of 1 to 9999 or infinite.

Trigger channel : 1 desired channel
Trigger value : A desired real number of 6 effective figures or less Reference
Reference value : Amount of level shift to determine the first trigger value
(selected from the same range as for the trigger values)
Number of repeat times : 1 to 9999 (0 for infinite times)
Number of measurement steps : Maximum 15
INTERVAL MEASUREMENT Measurement is automatically
performed at preset time intervals.
Starting time setting : Year/month/day and hour:minute:second
Interval setting : Days and hours:minutes:seconds (in a range
of 00 and 00:00:01 to 99 and 12:59:59)
Number of repeat times : 1 to 9999 (0 for infinite times)
Maximum number of steps : 15
TRIGGER INTERVAL MEASUREMENT Combination of trigger measurement and interval measurement.
Trigger value: Absolute value Number of measurement times: Max. 9999
