CMC-99 Linux Based Meter & Controller

Simex CMC-99 Meter

The Multicon CMC-99 is an advanced multichannel panel mount meter and controller using a custom Linux operating system.  It features a 3.5″ TFT touchscreen LCD which has various display modes including text, graph, meter and bar chart views.  Various expansion options allow up to 48 analogue inputs and 16 relay outputs to be monitored and controlled from a single unit.  These modules are ideal for replacing several digital displays with a single, low cost solution and have the added benefit of tying together channels to perform various functions.  Common applications include advanced pump control and temperature/cooling control for greenhouses.

The easy to use interface allows you to setup all the monitoring parameters from the touchscreen.  Complex scaling, timing and calculated functions can be assigned to specific channels and setup in minutes.

Additionally, the CMC-99 has the ability to operate as a MODBUS slave unit, allowing external devices to poll the controller through its single RS485 communication port.  In the future, additional communication options will be implemented including Ethernet and USB.
