Solartron Orbit® Network
13 June 2023
The Solartron Orbit® Network – is a total measurement solution that combines Calibrated Digital Probes with a System that can link up to 250 contact, non-contact, and 3rd part sensors, and then output to a PC, PLC, or readout.
The Orbit® system architecture
The Orbit® system architecture consists of a rugged mechanical design coupled with a high degree of electrical protection and excellent noise immunity, ensuring accurate readings when needed. Orbit® processes and transmits repeatable data from all sensors at speeds of up to 3906 readings per second.
Visit our website for Orbit® Training Videos. These are for connecting Orbit® to 3rd party software, or building your own individual program using the Orbit® Library. It also walks you through Orbit® Suite and demonstrates the different measurement modes in more detail.
Part A - This walks you through installing the Orbit® Drivers and showing the various sections of the Orbit® Suite. It also demonstrates the steps for connecting the various Interface modules. Included is a review of the the Orbit® Library, and the many programming examples that are loaded with the drivers.
Part B - This video demonstrates “Orbit® Library Test,” which is not just a program built with the Orbit® Library, but also a great demonstrator of the different Measurement modes and features on the Orbit® Network.
Part C - This video demonstrates how firmware for an Orbit® module can be updated in the field.
Part D – This video is a demonstration of connecting the Orbit® Network to NI Labview software.
