LORD QUICK START GUIDE ® V-Link -200 ® Wireless 8 Channel Analog Input Sensor Node The V- Link - 200 wireless sensor node features eight analog input channels designed to accommodate a wide range of Wheatstone bridge and analog sensors, including strain, load cell, torque, pressure, acceleration, vibration, magnetic field, displacement, and geophones. There are four channels for singleended sensor measurement, four channels for differential sensor measurement, and an on-board internal temperature sensor. The LED indicators on the V-Link-200 include operational modes showing when the node is booting up, idle and waiting for a command, sampling, resynchronizing, or if there is an error. see Table 2 - below describing basic indicator behavior. To acquire sensor data, the V- Link - 200 is used with a LORD Sensing data gateway such as the WSDA-101 or WSDA-1500 Base. V-Link-200 sensor nodes come with the following components.

Install Software Sensor nodes have three operational modes: active , sleep , and idle . When the node is sampling, it is in active mode. When sampling stops, the node is switched into idle mode, which is used for configuring node settings, and allows toggling between sampling and sleeping modes. The node will automatically go into the ultra low- power sleep mode after a user- determined period of inactivity. The node will not go into sleep mode while sampling. Install the SensorConnect software on the host computer before connecting any hardware. The SensorConnect software is available on the LORD Sensing website for free download: http://www.microstrain.com/software/software 2. Make System Connections To acquire sensor data, the V- Link - 200 is used with a LORD Sensing data gateway such as the WSDA-101-Base or WSDA-1500-LXRS. Figure 2 - Node Operational Modes V-Link-200 Wireless Sensor Node Quick Start Guide 3. Establish Gateway Communication 4. Connect to Nodes The WSDA-101-Base USB gateway is used in this example. For information on how to use other gateways, refer to the gateway or SensorConnect user manual. The node can be connected with the automatic node discovery feature and by manually entering the node address and then searching for it on the current gateway communication frequency. Drivers for the USB gateways are included the SensorConnect software installation. With the software installed, the USB gateway will be detected automatically whenever the gateway is plugged in. 1. If the base and node are on the same operating frequency, the node will populate below the Base Station listing when powering on the VLink-200. 1. Power is applied to the gateway through the USB connection. Verify the gateway status indicator is illuminated, showing the gateway is connected and powered on. 2. Open the SensorConnect software. 3. The gateway should appear in the Controller window automatically with a communication port assignment. If the gateway is not automatically discovered, verify the port is active on the host computer, and then remove and re-insert the USB connector. Figure 4 - Automatic Node Discovery 2. If a red circle with a number appears next to Base Station, the node is operating on a separate radio channel. Select the Base Station and then select the Nodes on Other Frequencies tile. Figure 3 - USB Gateway Communication Figure 5 - Nodes On Other Frequencies V-Link-200 Wireless Sensor Node Quick Start Guide 3. Highlight the new node being added. Select Move Node to Frequency (#). 5. Configure Node Node settings are stored to non-volatile memory and may be configured using SensorConnect. For details related to node configuration, see Wireless Sensor Configuration on page 1. For this example the V-Link-200 tester board is on channel 1. 1. Select Hardware > Input Range for channel 1, select +/-2 mV from the drop down menu. 2. Under Hardware Offset, select Balance Target for channel 1, select Mid (50%) from the drop down menu. 3. Select Auto- Balance. When auto- balance is complete, a blue information window will indicate the balance result. Figure 6 - Move Node 4. When manually entering the node address, select Manual Add Node, enter Node Address, last known Frequency (factory default is 15), and select Add Node. Figure 8 - Auto-Balance 4. Select Calibration. 5. Select Microstrain from the Unit drop down menu, and select the Shunt Cal button enabled on the right. Figure 7 - Adding a Node by Address V-Link-200 Wireless Sensor Node Quick Start Guide 9. When the calibration is complete, the Wireless Node Configuration window will appear. 10. Select Apply Configuration to write to node memory. See below for wiring of other strain gauges. Figure 9 - Node Configuration Menu 6. Use the following settings: a. Calibration Mode: Internal b. Number of Active Gauges: 4 c. Gauge Factor: 2 d. Gauge Resistance: 1000 e. Shunt Resistance: 499000 Figure 11 - Full-Bridge (Standard) 7. Select Start Shunt Cal for Slope and Offset calibrations. 8. Select Accept Calibration. Figure 12 - Half-Bridge Figure 10 - Channel Settings V-Link-200 Wireless Sensor Node Quick Start Guide Figure 13 - Two Wire Quarter-Bridge * Figure 15 - Sampling Setting 3. Select Apply and Start Network. 4. Select Create Quick View Dashboard in the pop up window immediately to create a dashboard of the new data. Figure 14 - Three Wire Quarter-Bridge * * Requires optional on-board bridge completion 6. Configure Sampling Setting and Start Data Acquisition 1. Left click on the Base Station > Sampling, and indicate the nodes to be sampled by checking the box to the left of each node. 2. Under Sampling, select Sample Rate from the drop down menu, select Continuously to sample indefinitely, or For to set a limited time for sample sets. Figure 16 - Quick View Dashboard V-Link-200 Wireless Sensor Node Quick Start Guide 7. Replacing Batteries Lithium batteries contain toxic chemicals that are harmful to humans and the environment. Disposal is subject to federal and local laws. Do not discard the battery or the node in the trash. Follow proper battery disposal protocol, or contact LORD Sensing Technical Support for information on extracting the battery or returning the product for proper recycling and disposal. 1. Remove the screws on both sides of the face plate to open the V-Link200. 2. It is important to replace all four of the batteries at the same time, observing the correct polarity orientation. The positive polarities are indicated on the batteries and the node by a "+" symbol. 3. Reassemble. 9.
