IMBus
Universal Measuring Bus
The IBR Measuring Bus [IMBus] is a technology step in metrology and interface
technology.
Powerful connection modules for all sensors and gauges as well as
maximum flexibility for connection to computer interfaces characterize
the IMBus Series.

Structure and module survey
The IBR - Measuring Bus [IMBus] is a new series of measuring and interface modules with great flexibility and for high demands in industrial environment. The specially developed module case is very robust and can be mounted without tools. The modules can be placed onto a table or can be clicked onto mounting rails. The electronics satisfies all demands from practice regarding flexibility, speed and resolution at maximum measuring accuracy. The address setting on IMBus occurs automatically ( Plug & Play ). The modular design of 1 to 512 connections and the possibility to connect the modules via cables with a maximum length of 1200 m ( 4000 ft ) allow an universal use of IMBus. A complete range of software for simple applications up to complex measuring applications with control sequences completes the new IMBus series to an universal tool for measuring data collection, analysis and displaying.
