Edwards TIC Controller – For Gauges
The TIC Instrument Controller provides compact control with a large, clear graphical display, an intuitive user interface and serial communications. The supplied Windows™-basedPC program provides full remote setup, control and data logging functions via theRS232 interface.
Two TIC Instrument Controllers are available; the three head and six head versions can accommodate 3 or 6 active gauges.
Each TIC is supplied with a fully functional Windows™ based PC software interface, which replicates and adds to the TIC embedded control menus.
The PC Monitor software enables TIC systems to be configured, controlled and monitored from a single PC:
- Control gauge functions such as degas and calibrate
- Energize or de-energize gauges
- Access other PC Monitor control functions
- The Configuration Manager allows access in order to:
- Link gauge channels for pressure control of high vacuum gauges
- Create, save, and load custom configurations
- Lock the TIC software configuration or front panel controls
- A useful data logging facility is also provided, which saves user selectable parameters to file (in a .csv format) for later analysis using suitable software.
The relay interface panel allows the user to:
- Link relay channels to any connected gauge head
- Configure the relay set-point levels for automatic operation based upon sensed pressure levels
- Manually cycle the on-board set points for manual control of connected systems
