Product Description 1.1 FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT Manual Figure 1. FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT PCB-Based Signal Conditioner/Controller. The FOTEMP-OEM-MNT is a small form factor PCB-sandwich module designed for low cost insertion of high precision GaAs-based fiber optic temperature sensor technology into OEM applications where common electrical temperature sensors and thermocouples cannot be used. This OEM product is compatible with all TS series fiber optic temperature probes. The sensors are entirely non-metallic and electrically passive, providing immunity to EMI, RFI, NMR, high voltage, microwaves and radiation The FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT PCB signal conditioner incorporates three digital interface; USB, RS232, and SPI. USB interface is Type B jack while RS232 and SPI share electrical interface connections via a DB9 connector.

The SPI interface is specifically designed to be compatible with the Texas Instruments TMP123 temperature sensor chip. The temperature read is started by pulling /SS low and clocking out a 16-bit word with the high byte read first. Only the high order 13 bits are relevant to the temperature reading. The 13 bits are standard two's complement for a signed integer. The most significant bit is the sign while the following 12 bits represents temperature in 1/16°C increments. The lowest three bits are not used. See Table 2 for binary output format of the temperature reading. The following limitations apply: · Maximum read out clock speed is 1MHz, or 10MHz with a 1µs "inter byte spacing" clock delay. · The value of the three least significant bits are always 0.

Operation 3.1 Contents FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT Signal Conditioner FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT Manual TS Temperature Probe (Purchased Separately) Figure 10: Key Contents of the FOTEMP Temperature System The FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT system contains the following: · FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT Signal Conditioner · AC Power Supply (Upon request for engineering evaluation applications only) · CDROM with FOTEMP-ASSISTANT Software, USB Drivers and other support documentation (not shown) Available Separately: · TS Series Temperature Probes Page 13 of 17 FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT Manual 3.2 SPI Test Connections The system was connected and tested as shown in Figure 10. The Micronor SPI Master Emulator displays the both the TMP123-type binary reading and temperature in °C. From the FOTEMP signal conditioner. FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT Signal Conditioner TS Temperature Probe Figure 11: Test Setup Shown With Micronor SPI Master Test Box Steps 1. Connect TS2 temperature probe to ST optical interface 2. Connect 12 V Power to J15 pin header 3. Connect SPI interface using DB9 Male Connector With Pin Contacts Page 14 of 17 FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT Manual 3.3 Temperature Calibration Using FOTEMP-ASSISTANT Software The FOTEMP1 will need to be calibrated with the actual temperature sensor used. This is achieved using a PC running the supplied FOTEMP-ASSISTANT graphical display/data logging software and connecting to the FOTEMP1 signal conditioner either via RS232 or USB interface. For more information regarding calibration using FOTEMP-Assistant please refer to the FOTEMP-ASSITANT2 Manual. 3.4 FOTEMP-Assistant Software Installation The FOTEMP-ASSISTANT V2 software is provided on the supplied CDROM. It will work with either USB or RS232 Interface For more information regarding the installation of FOTEMP-Assistant please refer to the FOTEMP-ASSITANT2 Manual. For RS232 operation 1. Connect the FOTEMP1 signal conditioner to the PC using Specially Wired RS232 cable. This special cable has Pins 6-9 disconnected so that the 12V RS232 signals do not damage the 5V SPI signals wired to these DB9 pins. 2. Click on the Program File and then [PortSettings]. Be sure that COM1 is selected. 3. Select [OK] and then [Connect] to start the program. After a few seconds, the program should start and display temperature. For USB operation 1. Connect the FOTEMP1 signal conditioner to the PC using supplied USB cable. If Windows tells you that the device has been properly installed, then continue to Step 3. 2. Disconnect the USB cable. Windows was not able to load the correct Virtual Comm Port (VCP) drivers for the FTDI serial interface chip. You will need to install VCP drivers (either 32-bit or 64-bit depending on your system) supplied on the CD. Then repeat Step 1. 3. Click on the Program File and then [PortSettings]. Select the COMx port that corresponds to VCP assigned to the FOTEMP unit. 4. Select [OK] and then [Connect] to start the program. After a few seconds, the program should start and display temperature. 5. If the program will not start, then contact Micronor for assistance. Note: If developing custom communications software, contact Micronor for ASCII Protocol. Sample National Instruments LabVIEWTM Driver is also available. Page 15 of 17 FOTEMP1-OEM-MNT Manual 4.
