The Mark-10 BGI Force / Torque Gauge is a unique product designed for working in conjunction with a variety of interchangeable remote force and torque sensors. The sensors do not require calibration or setup - the Mark 10 BGI automatically recognizes any sensor. All configuration and calibration data is saved in the sensor's connector. Simply plug and play!
Features:
- Fully interchangeable force and torque BGI force/torque sensors with "personality" modules containing all calibration and user-set data
- Unlimited number of sensors possible due to unique design
- Programmable default configuration for each sensor
- RS-232, Mitutoyo and analog outputs
- GCL - Gauge Control Language for full computer control of all functions
- Automatic timed output on RS-232
- Averaging mode for obtaining average force readings over time
- External trigger for data capture and switch testing
- Programmable dual set points with outputs
- Programmable analog and digital filters
- Programmable initial status of units and mode of operation
- General purpose I/O for external device control
- Programmable auto-shutoff
- Permanent configuration memory
- Selectable units of measurement
- Push-button calibration
- Battery or AC operation
- Automatic peak reading memory
- NIST-traceable certificate included
