PICAXE-18X Datalogger

Description: The PICAXE-18X datalogger is an economical four channel datalogger based upon the PICAXE-18X microcontroller. This microcontroller can be reprogrammed to perform many different types oflogging experiment (“missionâ€_x009d_). Logging can be carried out at regularly spaced intervals (typically 10 seconds to several hours), or an optional real-time-clock chip can be added to the datalogger to ensure accurate logging intervals over long periods (once a week, once a month etc.) Data is saved in an external memory chip. If desired this memory chip can be upgraded for increased memory capacity. An optional memory expansion board can also be used to greatly increase memory capacity. Once the mission is complete, data can be uploaded for analysis on a computer. Data can also be displayed (at the time of logging) on an optional liquid crystal display if desired. Programming of the mission is simplified by use of automated ‘Wizards’, which generate the BASIC codeto download to the PICAXE-18X microcontroller. Experienced users may also choose to write their ownmission BASIC code (or to modify the programs generated by the automated wizard).
Features:
• Easy to use software wizards to start datalogging missions.
• Supports PICAXE-18X microcontroller and on-board EEPROM data memory.
• 4 logging channels.
• Dedicated digital temperature sensor channel.
• Small footprint - approx. same size as the power supply (3x AA cells).
• Optional real-time-clock with lithium cell backup (AXE034)
• Optional serial LCD module for on-board display of data (AXE033)
• Expandable i2c bus for additional EEPROM memory capacity (AXE111)
• Low power consumption, powered by 3x AA cells.
