Altronic CPU-95 Enhanced Display

For users seeking an expanded level of capability or intending to integrate their CPU-95 system into an existing or planned supervisory control or remote monitoring system, Altronic offers its Enhanced Display Module (791909-1). In addition to incorporating a Modbus RTU-enabled serial port for communication with a remote monitoring system or local controller, the Enhanced CPU95 Display Module also supports USB connectivity to a PC and the associated CPU-95 Terminal Program. An innovative ignition memory “cloning” system allows this advanced Module to upload the ignition system configuration file (number of cylinders, firing pattern, number of monitored gear teeth, 4-20mA or RPM curve, etc.) from a connected Ignition Module, retain it indefinitely in its own memory, and - without the need of a laptop - to download that memory information to a new Ignition Module in the event that the existing module is damaged or requires replacement. The larger system display allows for the simultaneous display of large amounts of information, and the ability to “map” the CPU-95 Ignition Outputs to the appropriate cylinder designation. Thus, the user retains indications of the appropriate CPU-95 output (A, B, C, etc.) while also getting diagnostic indications in terms of the on-engine cylinder reference (5L, 3R, #6, etc.). Advanced spark reference number graphing is also made possible by incorporating the larger display (see sample displays above). “Live” and data log-based XY graphing of the monitored Spark Reference Number for a given cylinder and “at-a-glance” indication of the relative value of the Spark Reference Number across all cylinders gives the user unparalleled access and convenience in ignition system troubleshooting and monitoring. Added capabilities also include an onboard data logging function which retains up to one-hundred (100) date and timestamped records of the Spark Reference Number for each output which have been recorded at user-adjustable intervals. These records are stored in a rolling “first in-first out” fashion and are accessible for download via the Enhanced Display Module for offline trending and analysis
