Handheld Temperature/Humidity Dataloggers


The D-Series available from Audon Electronics are a range of portable, battery operated stand-alone temperature, humidity and thermocouple data loggers. There are 3 models in the range; The D3120 has an internal temperature and humidity sensor with a -10°C to +60°C temperature range and a 5 to 95% relative Humidity range, the D3121 uses an external temperature and humidity sensor on a 1m lead with an -30°C to +105°C temperature range whilst the D0321 accepts up to 2 external type K, J, or S thermocouples.

Temperature and humidity readings can be displayed on the LCD screen and recorded in internal memory. An audible alarm can also be set to warn of alarm conditions.

Record rates can be set from once every 10 seconds to once every 24 hours, and up to 16000 recordings can be stored. Data can then be downloaded to a PC for display and analysis at a later date using the included software.

Temperature Alarm and Monitor from Web Browser



The P8 series from Audon Electronics a low-cost Ethernet solution for temperature monitoring and alarm in server room, museum, medical and industrial applications. Simply connect to your LAN, open any web browser and begin monitoring.

Temperatures can be viewed in tabular or history chart formats. The history memory can hold 900 readings, with a variable store rate from 10 seconds to 18 hours. Stored history data can be downloaded to a PC file for further analysis.

The P8 series also have under and over temperature alarms. The units can email a warning message to up to three users, and can send SNMP alarm traps. The series also supports MODBUS TCP for integration with SCADA software. LabVIEW examples are available.

Circuit Gear 7-in-1 USB Test Instrument


The Circuitgear CGR-101 from Audon Electronics is a PC-based instrument that provides the features of seven devices in one USB-powered compact box. The device offers the performance of a two-channel 10-bit 20MSa/sec 2MHz oscilloscope, a two-channel spectrum-analyser, and a 3MHz 8-bit arbitrary-waveform/standard-function generator with eight digital I/O lines. It also functions as a network analyser, a noise generator and a PWM output source. Its open-source software runs with Windows, Linux and Mac OS.

The CGR-101's oscilloscope capability provides a two-channel 10-bit -+/-0.25Vp-p to +/-25Vp-p 2MHz basic scope, but with sophisticated marker measurements, triggering (normal, auto, single-shot and pre-trigger) with time-base adjustable from 50ns/division to 100ms/division. With a 1k sample/channel data buffer, the user can even view pre-trigger signals.

The CGR-101's two-channel FFT spectrum analyser feature offers marker measurements, and when used with the internal signal generator, displays Bode plots and performs vector network analysis, showing gain and phase values.

The CGR-101's signal generator is an 8-bit 0.1Hz to 3MHz signal source, offering sine/square/triangle/ramp waveforms, as well as being capable of outputting arbitrary or preloaded waveforms such as ECGs. The user can enable the generator, connect its signal to a circuit and perform measurements with the oscilloscope and/or spectrum analyser. The generator can also be set to function as a white noise source. A slider-controlled PWM generator is also provided, with mark-space ratio clearly displayed.

The included visual interface software enables simple control and display of information. The oscilloscope, generator, and digital I/O are operated from a custom open-source Tcl/Tk software GUI included with the hardware. As the software is open source, the code can be read and even added to or customised.The CGR-101 is also Labview compatible and can be controlled by any serial-port-driving software, such as Matlab or Visual Basic.

Project-based electronics lab teaching materials are also available for use with Circuitgear CGR-101. http://www.audon.co.uk/cgr101.html
