General Description

The Model 26700 Series Programmable Translator offers a new level of capability in meteorological sensor monitoring. This microprocessor-based display and data collection device has the features and flexibility to perform many monitoring tasks. From simple display of one variable to multi-sensor datalogging and serial data transmission, the 26700 Programmable Translator can satisfy your measurement needs.

High Resolution Display
The 26700 display is a high contrast, illuminated, alphanumeric LCD. Measured data can be displayed in any format that suits the application. Display text is easily customized using the front panel keypad; ten different screens are available.

Data Storage
Built-in memory lets you log up to 24000 data points in real time. Data can be retrieved at any time, communicated to another device such as a personal computer, or output on a dot matrix printer. These capabilities make the 26700 a perfect choice for many network systems.

Wide Selection of Inputs
The 26700 translator accommodates up to 5 specially designed sensor interface modules. Inputs for wind, temperature, precipitation, humidity, and other sensors are connected to the appropriate module and initialized by selecting a command with the front keypad. Programming is simplified by featuring many special functions such as average, standard deviation, maximum, minimum, sine and cosine, UVW corrections and others. The 26700 is compatible with all RM Young sensors.

Special Output Functions
Many output options are available for the 26700. The base unit has a standard RS-232 for serial communication via cable, modem or radio transmitter. Special modules are available for Voltage and Current outputs. The Alarm/Relay module provides 4 dry contact switches which can be programmed from the keypad. The Printer Interface module enables the 26700 to output directly to a conventional dot-matrix printer.

Modular Design Provides System Flexibility
Each 26700 is interfaced to the sensors through specially designed sensor interface modules. These modules allow you to optimize performance with different sensor types. Modules are available for a wide variety of inputs and outputs to custom tailor your system. New modules can be installed at any time as requirements change.
