The RS232 version of the PSD load cell or strain gauge indicator enables the connection to many RS232 interface's whether its a PC or simple data logger. The PSD232 is fitted with a 8 pin connector which allows users to connect the appropriate cabling for their application.
As with the standard PSD handheld, the PSD232 weighs only 250 grams and has a 7 digit LCD display with 6 tactile push buttons for access to on/off, gross/net, peak, trough, display hold and shunt cal functions. The indicator is micro processor based designed to interface with any full bridge sensor with an output sensitivity of up to 50mV/V. Bridge resistances from 85 ohms upwards can be used.
Two units of measure are able to be read and displayed such as kg & lbs. An annunciator indicates which range has been selected and there is a window, to insert a legend, describing each unit of measure.
The menu options accessed via the tactile keypad offers the ability to tailor the instruments response to the application including configuring the display update rate to either 0.5Hz, 1 Hz, 3Hz or 10Hz, setting auto power down, and overload. Calibration is also performed from the menu. Up to 450 hours battery life can be achieved whilst in power save mode with powering via 2 x AA Alkaline batteries (not included). An auto sleep/off function can be set ranging from 1 minute up to 99 minutes.
Both PSD's are TEDS 'Plug and Play' (Transducer Electronic Data Sheets) enabled.
1 year warranty with accessory options of a black leather carry case with shoulder strap which allows full operation of the PSD232 whilst being carried in the case.
The Case is Registered Design No. 3021311

PSD232 |
- Q: Can I use the handheld to indicate different engineering units?
-
A: Yes, 2 separate ranges are available, which enable the instrument to read and display two separate engineering units; i.e. lbs/kg, tonne/kN, etc. The menu options provide the user with the ability to completely tailor the operation of each range such as the display update rate, low power operation and RS232 output along with the resolution and decimal point position. Each range tracks its own peak and trough as well as its Gross/Net state all of which are saved on powering.
- Q: Can I connect to RS232 using the PSD?
-
A: Yes, via the PSD232. This handheld can connect to most RS232 interface whether it's a PC or simple data logger.
The PSD232 sends the displayed value to the RS232 port at 9600 baud in an ASCII format, terminated by a carriage return and line-feed making it suitable for stand alone data loggers, larger serial displays as well as interfacing onto a PC for logging which can provide a useful record during a calibration or load cell test.
The RS232 output is provided at the same time that the display is updated The update rate is user configurable with updates rate of up 10Hz.
- Q: How do I calibrate to the PSD?
-
A: The PSD is factory set to enable calibration with sensors generating an input signal of 5mV/V or less. In the majority of cases it will not be necessary to read higher signal levels.
The best method of calibration, if it is possible to do so, is via the Live calibration (via the PSD's menu programme), as this reads in the sensor signal at two calibration points and scales the PSD automatically. If this is not possible, then the sensitivity figure (in mV/V) from the sensor calibration certificate can be used to scale the PSD, by using the Table (via the PSD's menu programme) calibration. This may be the only option available if you are unable to apply a known stimulus to the sensor, which quite often is the case.
- Q: What is TEDS and how does it work?
-
A: TEDS is at the heart of the new universally accepted IEEE 1451.4 standard for delivering Plug and Play capabilities to analogue measurement and test instruments. In essence, information in a Transducer Electronic Data Sheet provides interfacing devices with the critical sensor calibration information in order to perform accurate and precise measurements every time. TEDS works in a similar way in which USB computer peripherals immediately work as they are connected. TEDS enabled equipment maybe swapped and changed without recalibration, saving time and money. TEDS holds information such as a sensor manufacturer, model and serial numbers, and more importantly all the calibration settings determined by the manufacturer.
As implemented according to IEEE P1451.4, data in the form of a Transducer Electronic Data Sheet (TEDS) is burned on an Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) chip located in the sensor or its associated connector. TEDS requires only a single additional connection from the sensor to the Instrument.
The main advantage of the TEDS enabled PSD is that one PSD can read from any number of TEDS enabled strain bridge sensors without the need for the operator to enter calibration data which can be a time consuming and erroneous operation.
- Q: Can I connect the handheld to more than one sensor without using TEDS
-
A: Yes. Although the PSD has only one sensor input it does have two ranges. So the calibration and configuration data for two separate sensors can be held by the PSD. Each range has its own Peak & Trough value as well as tracking if it is in Gross or Net mode.

This handheld display module provides an 8 digit LCD reading from up to 12 of the T24 Acquisition modules (strain gauge, voltage and current). The T24-HA can be operated in two modes:
- Result Mode sums the values from the paired acquisition modules making this sum the primary displayed value
- Item Mode allows the user to select which acquisition module value to display.
The acquisition modules can be powered on and powered off automatically by the handheld. Status indicators inform the user if the remote acquisition module has input integrity problems, low battery, low signal, over range or other error. The display can be toggled between gross and a tared value and can optionally be scaled to change measurement units.
In addition, a function key can be configured to retransmit the displayed value to other T24 modules such as a printer.
The licence free 2.4GHz direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio telemetry technology offers high integrity, error free communications which can co-exist with other wireless technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth® and Zigbee®. FCC, ETSI and IC approvals.
This handheld module uses a pair of standard alkaline AA batteries and is configured using free T24 Toolkit software which runs on a PC connected to a T24 base station.
The handheld display is typically seen in applications requiring wireless loadcell measurement or wireless strain gauge display. To learn more about these applications please see our Industries tab.

This radio telemetry handheld display module provides an 8 digit LCD reading from an unlimited number of T24 Acquisition modules (strain gauge, current and voltage).
A simple search button is pushed when in the proximity of any acquisition module. The module with the highest signal strength, and nearest to the handheld, will initially be selected and displayed. The data tag of the acquisition module being read is displayed prior to the output reading, allowing identification of the data's origin. Other acquisition modules can be displayed by scrolling.
Ideal for systems where manual reading of T24 acquisition modules is required but the number is unknown or may be variable.
The licence free 2.4GHz direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio telemetry technology offers high integrity, error free communications which can co-exist with other wireless technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth® and Zigbee®. FCC, ETSI and IC approvals.

This wireless handheld display module provides an 8 digit LCD reading from any of the T24 Acquisition Modules (strain gauge, current or voltage). The remote acquisition module can be powered on and powered off automatically as the T24-HS handheld is operated. Status indicators inform the user if the remote acquisition module has input integrity problems, low battery, low signal, over range or other error.
The display can be toggled between gross and a tared value and can optionally be scaled to change measurement units.
The licence free 2.4GHz direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio technology offers high integrity, error free communications which can co-exist with other wireless technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth® and Zigbee®. FCC, ETSI and IC approvals
This handheld module uses a pair of standard alkaline AA batteries and is configured using free T24 Toolkit software which runs on a PC connected to a T24 base station.
This wireless handheld display is typically seen in applications requiring wireless loadcell measurement or wireless strain gauge display. To learn more about these applications please see our Industries tab.
