Signal receiver & processing

All data from the sensors is collected, processed and stored in the CR3, transfer to the computer is automatic when the computer is running. When the computer is off-line the CR3 will back up data internally until the computer comes back on line where the automatic data transfer will recommence. The CR3 is normally located near the computer that is being used to monitor the data. An on-board 16 x 2 alpha-numeric LCD displays the system status. The CR3 also signals alarm conditions via the front panel LED’s (should any sensor measure above or below individual pre-set levels). The CR3 has an on-board relay that can be configured to drive external alarm devices where required.
