The OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 is a next-generation recorder
that combines the ease-of-use common in paper-based
strip-chart recorders with the advanced features of PC based
data acquisition systems. The CHARTSCAN’s convenient
BNC, safety jack, subminiature plug, and screw terminal
connectors make signal connection easier than other data
recorders or loggers.
The OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 is a compact, portable
instrument which scans at 147 readings/s. Because of its
unique configuration, the OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 offers an
unrivaled low cost per channel. It connects to a computer via an
RS-232/RS-422 interface, Hayes-compatible modem, or optional
IEEE 488 interface; and can stream data direct-to-disk (your
PC’s hard drive) in real time. For stand-alone operation, the
OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 comes standard with 128K readings
(256 Kbytes) deep memory that is expandable to 4M readings
(8 Mbytes).
CHARTVIEW SOFTWARE
The OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 includes
ChartView, Windows-based setup and
acquisition application. ChartView
provides a graphical spreadsheet style
user interface that lets you easily
configure your hardware, acquisition,
and display parameters. ChartView
features a no programming approach
that enables data collection and
display within minutes.
ChartView provides a number of data
display options including a real-time
smooth scrolling trend display, digital
meters, analog meters, and bar graph
meters. The collected data is stored to
disk in an ASCII format so it may be
easily imported into other applications,
such as Microsoft Excel, for post
acquisition display and analysis. In
addition, ChartView also provides a
real-time link to Excel using Dynamic
Data Exchange (DDE). The OMBCHARTSCAN-
1400 also includes
PostView, a post acquisition graphics
display program that integrates
seamlessly into ChartView. Using
PostView’s intuitive on-screen controls,
you can expand, contract and
auto-scale waveforms as well as scroll
in either direction. PostView also provides
hardcopy printout of the waveform.
The Standard ChartView is included
with the OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400.
An optional enhanced version of
ChartView, ChartView Plus, is also
available. The table to the right
summarizes the differences between
ChartView and ChartView Plus.

ISOLATED INPUT
The OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 is ideal for
temperature and voltage measurements
that require channel-to-channel
isolation. The OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400
provides 500 V isolation for high voltage
applications using the OMB-CSN14-HV-S
module and 200 V isolation when
the thermocouple and other voltage
modules are used. The OMBCHARTSCAN-
1400 achieves this high
isolation by using individual relays on
each channel, yet still maintains a very
fast 147 channels/s scan rate.
FASTER SCANNING
The OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 offers a
faster scanning than typical strip-chart
recorders and exceeds the typical two Hz
rate found on most strip chart, multi-point
or hybrid recorders. The unit provides an
array of scanning capabilities to meet your
applications requirements. Because
data-logging and chart recording
applications frequently require the
logging at fixed time intervals, the OMBCHARTSCAN-
1400 uses the standard
hours-minutes-seconds (hh:mm:ss.s)
format to specify the time interval
between channel scans. Users can
configure the unit to begin and end data
logging on a specified event such as
TTL signal, temperature level, IEEE GET,
alarm condition, absolute time of day,
or upon completion of a specified number
of readings.
EXPANDABLE
The OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 can accommodate up to four plug-in option modules
a total of 64 channels.
HIGH-SPEED MULTICHANEL SCANNING
When line-cycle averaging is enabled, the
OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 can average 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, or
32 samples per channel. When the unit is configured to take
1 sample per channel, it can scan 147 channels/s or all
128 channels in under one second. This is important when
trying to time-correlate a large number of channels.
ACCURACY
The OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 has a number of features
and capabilities that enable it to deliver the high
accuracy demanded by many research applications.
HIGH RESOLUTION
The OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 is equipped with a high-speed
16-bit A/D converter. This enables the OMB-CHARTSCAN-
1400 to offer up to 0.1°C and 3.05 µV resolution with the
OMB-CSN14-TC-P thermocouple/volt scanning module.
ALARMS
Detecting an alarm condition is a common requirement
in logging applications and the OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400
offers a number of modes to facilitate alarm detection.
With 32 digital TTL alarm outputs available on the 50-pin
rear panel connector or 16 outputs via the high-current
capacity OMB-CSN-RELAY option, multiple conditions
can be set and monitored.
Unlike some instruments which allow only one channel to be
assigned to a single alarm output, the OMB-CHARTSCAN-
1400 allows one or more channels to be logically “OR-ed”
and connected to an alarm output.
TEMPERATURE & VOLTAGE MODULES
OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 input modules are ideal for
making isolated temperature and voltage measurements.
Each features 16 isolated inputs and plugs directly in the
OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400.
Depending upon the module and signal input, each card uses
either standard BNC, safety jack, removable screw terminal
block or thermocouple plugs for quick and easy input
connections. The modules slide into a shielded metal
enclosure within the OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400, keeping
noise to a minimum and maintaining a stable internal
temperature for accurate CJC reading.
All scanning modules for the OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400
feature isolated differential input capabilities that can make
accurate measurements in high common-mode voltage
applications.
