The "iS" series of meter/controllers can measure a wide variety of strain gage bridge and DC voltage intputs for all common load cells, pressure transducers, and most any strain gauge type of transducer. It is the first instrument of its kind, offering a wealth of powerful features and performance in an amazingly compact 1/32 DIN package or a 1/8 DIN package with 0.83" (21mm) high digits. The iS series handles input ranges of 0-100 mV, -100 mVdc to 1 Vdc, 0-10 V and 0-20mA. The iS series is easy to configure and scale to virtually any engineering units using the push buttons on the front panel, or using personal computer with the optional serial communications and free configuration software. The serial communications option includes both RS-232 and RS-485 on one instrument, and the straightforward OMEGA ASCII communications protocol, as well as MODBUS protocol. The iS series includes built-in excitation for transducers, selectable as 10 V at 100 mA or 5 V at 60 mA. The CNiS series controllers feature a choice of two optional outputs: Form C SPDT (single pole double throw) mechanical relays, solid state relays, DC pulse, and programmable analog output selectable for either a control function or retransmission of the process value. The iS series features the iSeries totally programmable color display that can change colors between Green, Amber, and Red at any setpoint or alarm point.

If we connect 4 load cell on the controller, can we set the analog output as an average of the 4 input?
The i-Series displays will only accept a single input signal. The only way they will accept 4 load cells is if you wire the 4 cells together in parallel. You typically would use a summing box. The summing box output would then be an average of the 4 load cell outputs. The analog output can then be scaled to the displayed value on the controller. The built in sensor excitation on the controller does not have enough current capability to power 4 load cells. You will have to provide external excitation to power the load cells

What is the modbus protocol used on this product? (TCP/IP, RTU, ASCII)
If the comm hardware option in the controller is ethernet, then it’s TCP.
If the comm option is serial, then it’s RTU.
Regardless, we don’t recommend using the old iSeries family with Modbus as it is very limited in functionality, & does not use industry standard Modbus...

Is there an update to the iSeries software tool that runs on Windows 10 (ex. iSerCom)
Hi Hehner,
Thank you for the inquiry. We do not have any updates to software for the iSeries.
Best regards
OMEGA
