VBOX Frequency & Pulse Counter Interface (FIM03)
RLVBFIM03
●4-channel frequency capture and pulse counter
●Records frequency-based signals from 1 Hz to 20 kHz
●Direct connection to inductive sensors
●Internal scale and offset to provide real units from sensors
●Modes for automatic calculation of RPM or wheel speed
●BNC connection for signal input
Overview
The Racelogic Frequency Input Module (RLVBFIM03) is a 4-channel frequency capture and pulse counter unit that lets a VBOX record frequency-based signals in the range of 1 Hz to 20 kHz.
Each channel's input circuit accepts a wide signal amplitude range, from TTL output sensors up to the higher voltages created by inductive sensors, so it can be connected directly to ABS wheel speed sensors, RPM sensors or fuel flow sensors.
A dedicated fuel flow mode makes monitoring fuel consumption and flow rate very easy to set up and use. The module can be configured in software to process the input frequency or pulse data into logged data in real units.
Applications
●ABS brake stops
●Tyre traction testing
●Aquaplane testing
