imc Sensors

Sensor Database

imc Sensors is a turnkey, device-independent database which can administer freely configured sensor information. Along with data specified in the IEEE standard P 1451.4 for Smart Sensors (TEDS), additional, freely definable sensor properties can be entered. These can include the sensor's technical spec sheet and its calibration values.

imc Sensors – Sensor database for the imc Plug & Measure technology
imc Sensors is a turnkey, device-independent database which can administer freely configured sensor information. Particular attention is given to the data in the sensor’s spec sheet and to its calibration values. imc Sensors enables information to be quickly and completely retrieved. Moreover:

• Device-independent sensor administration
• Verification of calibration data and monitoring of calibration intervals
• Ensuring the traceability of the calibration data as per ISO9000
• Easy archiving of the sensor spec sheet
• Total parameterization of measurement channels in conjunction with Plug & Measure


imc Sensors supports smart sensors with TEDS per IEEE 1451.4
Along with the values defined for smart sensors (TEDS) in IEEE 1451.4, additional sensor properties can also be recorded. For instance, the sensor’s technical specs and its calibration values. The sensor database imc Sensors is exactly adapted to the requirements of measurement engineering for development, lab work, quality assurance and system maintenance. Here, where flexible measurement setups use sensors in ever-changing combinations, such a database saves a lot of administrative hassles and improves the reliability and reproducibility of a measurement.

Sensor administration and simplification of device settings
While imc Sensors can be applied to any measurement device, in conjunction with the Plug&Measure-capable imc measurement systems (CANSAS or CRONOS PL), it can serve to handle the entire parameterization of a measurement amplifier channel, and keep a record of all measurement device parameters, as well as of the regular sensor data. The parameterization task is thus accomplished fully automatically. This significantly cuts down on the setup time and ensures reproducible and freely configurable sensor hookups.
