  • RMS-Converter with PoE

    RMS-Converter with PoE

    Hi RMS Community,

    Today I would like to introduce an idea how to realize a RMS-Converter with PoE.

    The RMS-CONVERTER-100 is a used to integrate digital non-RMS devices to RMS. It communicates with several types of devices as e. g. HF5 or HL-NT, logs and sends the data to the RMS as an IOT device. The RMS-CONVERTER is based on a SBC (Single Board Computer) that need a separate 230VAC/5VDC switching power supply. If the customer wants to install the RMS-Converter e. g. into...

  • Rain detection with RMS

    Rain detection with RMS

    Hi RMS Community,
    today I would like to show you the rain detector on our meteo station, how it works and how to integrate.

    Measurement principle
    There are several ways and technologies to detect raining. A simple technology is to measure the ohmic resistance between two wires on a surface with rain drops. Such rain detectors has a meander wiring surface perpendicular to the sky. The disadvantages of this technique are, that the wires are exposed to the erosive climate....

  • Measure Solar Radiation in RMS

    Measure Solar Radiation in RMS

    Hi RMS Community,

    at the Rotronic location in Bassersdorf we have an experimental wether station that we implemented into the RMS.
    Today I would like to show you how to integrate a very simple solar radiation measurement.
    It could be used to detect any solar influence for climate measurements as temperature, humidity or for electrical measurements as power or efficiency of a photovoltaic system.
    A very accurate but also expensive sensor would be a pyranometer.

  • Average - a RMS measuring point

    Average - a RMS measuring point

    Hi RMS community,

    I was asked what is the "Average" option in the RMS.
    If you click on Tools -> Setup -> Measuring points -> New -> Arithmetic calculation - you can choose the option "Average". The mean of the average is pretty simple. It is the sum of an amount of measuring numbers divided by the quantity of numbers taken into account (see Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average).

    How to set up?
    To setup such a measuring...

  • Monitoring of energy consumption with RMS

    Monitoring of energy consumption with RMS

    After the article of a simple monitoring of a power consumption, I would like to share a further application idea for more complex energy monitoring and controlling.

    For that setup I use an energy measure and control unit – in my case a NetIO PowerPDU 4C. The device can measure voltage, frequency, power factor, current, power and energy and that for each of four channels. Furthermore, it is possible to switch and to read out the status of each channel.

    To communicate...

  • Power Monitoring with RMS and ADC interface

    Power Monitoring with RMS and ADC interface

    Today I would like to show you a way to monitor the current and power consumption consumption with RMS using a RMS device with standard ADC interface (0-10V).


    The AC current is measured using a contactless current transducer. This component detects the magnetic field around the AC cable and measures the AC current by this principle. Beyond this, the sensor uses the magnetic field also to power his own sensor electronic and the interface of the transducer. So it doesn't need a...

  • Trend - an arithmetic calculation in the RMS

    Trend - an arithmetic calculation in the RMS

    The trend function (see Tools -> Setup -> Measuring points -> New -> Arithmetic calculation) is a mathematic procedure to determine the best fit line of real measurement values with a natural measurement error.
    If you have e. g. an amount of measurement values with a strong noise and you want to know if a trend becomes observable than the RMS trend function is a helpfull tool. Typically it is used for calibration, to know if the values of the reference and the unit under test (UUT)...

    If you use the RMS-Software 1.3.1 and got the error message "Error reading the device properties" while you read the Properties you need to upload the property-file of the device.
    Reason:
    New devices aren't implemented in the RMS-software, if you can't read out the properties for example the RMS-LOG-T30-868, it's necessary to upload the device definitions of the device.

  • Relative Humidity Measurement Principle of Rotronic Devices

    Relative Humidity Measurement Principle of Rotronic Devices

    This article describes the measurement principle of the relative humidity measurement based on a water sensitive capacitance.

    Generally, an electrical capacitance depends on
    • The surface A,
    • The distance between the electrodes d and
    • The permittivity εof the dielectric


    Water content in the dielectric influences the permittivity and by this way the capacitance as well. This effect is used to get a rate of humidity of the gas (e. g. air) surrounding the sensor.

  • Measurement Principle NTC sensing

    Measurement Principle NTC sensing

    General
    This article gives an introduction into the temperature measurement by NTC Sensors.


    Measurement principle
    A NTC Sensor is a temperature sensitive resistance with a Negativ Temperature Coefficient (NTC). Therefore, the resistance of the sensor can be measured and converted into the corresponding temperature value. The higher the temperature, the lower the sensors resistance.
