An advanced multi-stage ramp and soak sequencer supports up to 99 profiles of 8 segment ramp/soak sequences. Profiles may be linked to provide extended sequences and auxiliary outputs may be triggered based on individual Ramp or Soak states to provide external control over blowers, mixers or other auxiliary control functions.
Embedded Ethernet and Serial Communications
Optional “embedded ethernet” on the 1⁄16 and 1⁄8 DIN models allow the units to connect directly to an Ethernet network and transmit data in standard TCP/IP packets, or serve Web pages over a LAN or the Internet. Optional serial communications are also available configurable as RS232 or RS485, with straightforward ASCII commands or MODBUS®. All three types of communications interfaces can be installed and active simultaneously.
LabVIEW Driver
The Platinum LabVIEW driver is the National Instrument device driver for communicating with Omega Platinum Controllers via Modbus RTU/ASCII and Modbus TCP protocols. The driver allows easy access to the internal data, configuration settings, and operating functions of the Platinum product family.
The LabVIEW instrument driver reduces the application development time and simplifies instrument control. With the Platinum LabVIEW driver, customers can quickly communicate with the instrument and develop robust test applications and software.
DasyLab
Support for the easy-to-use DasyLab software solves complex data acquisition and control problems by allowing you to work with flowcharts directly on your PC screen. The high input accuracy, advanced process control, extended sequencing capability and flexible output options of a Platinum controller may be easily integrated with the rich set of function modules provide by the DasyLab software. The DasyLab software may be integrated thru the Platinum serial, Ethernet or USB connections.

I want to control an SL heater( basically a wall heater) with 240v 3000/2250W 12.5/108A, What do i need ?
Along with a controller you will also need a solid state relay, heat sink and a thermocouple

Where is the isothermal plate located in the CN32PT for the reference junction?
Is the thermistor within the removable terminal block or inside the controller housing?

What is the equation that calculates the temperature from mV
Hi, if you are using a thermocouple then here are some reference pages on how this is done.
This all goes into detail on the Seebeck voltage. Please contact us if you need anything further. Thanks!

CN16DPT-145. There is limited info on the retransmit function. I'd like to retransmit measured temperature from a thermocouple. How does the scaling work for retransmit?
To set the Analog output range on the Platinum Controllers you need to select the RNGE in the PROG menu then scale it in the RtRN parameter in the PROG menu in your case for ANG1 as well. Please call the temperature department if you need detailed assistance.

I want to drive a 24Vdc 3port/2way solenoid air valve. What output option do I select? I see there is a DC power supply option will that be needed?
Hi Julie,
Thank you for the inquiry. For your device the best option to use is the mechanical relay. You will need a power source suitable for your relay coil. The internal excitation is limited to 25 mA @ 24 VDC.
Best regards
Omega

I recently purchased a Platinum Series DP8PT-330-006-C24-EIP universal controller. The manual doesn't have the communications information in it. Where can I find the information on the Modbus RTU ethernet communications for SCADA connection?
Hi Marek,
Thank you for the inquiry. Following links are for the manuals describing communications;
