GENERAL ORDERING INFORMATION:
Specify Meter Color & Digit Size, Meter Power and a Signal Conditioner from the list below. Specify Analog Output, Setpoint Output and Digital Interface if needed. These meters are shipped with a standard configuration and range shown below for each signal conditioner and output option type. All information for making changes is covered in the supplied Owners Manual. For other scalings or configurations, add the SC (Special Configuration) option.
DESCRIPTIONS:
The Micro stopwatch meter can time single events from 1 µs to 999,999 hrs, with a resolution down to 0.2 µs for fast events. It can time processes which produce start and stop pulses, or time the width of a single pulse. The display is updated continuously during timing of slow events.
A-A Stopwatch Mode. Time can be measured between a start pulse and a stop pulse, both on Channel A, from either the positive or negative edges.
Timing is achieved by counting 5.5 MHz clock pulses. Micro stopwatch timers use the FR dual-channel signal conditioner and Extended counter main board.

Timing is achieved by counting 5.5 MHz clock pulses. Micro stopwatch timers use the FR dual-channel signal conditioner and Extended counter main board.
The event time (Item #1) may be displayed H, M or S format with six-digit resolution. The longest single-event timing interval is 999,999 hours. The highest resolution is 1 µs. The event time may also be displayed in HH.MM.SS clock format with 1 s resolution.
The stopwatch display is updated during timing at a rate controlled by a gate time, up to 25/s. It is reset to zero when the next start pulse occurs. Accumulated time from multiple events (Item #2) is also tracked and may be displayed up to 999,999 hours.
The dual-channel signal conditioner used for pulse detection accepts inputs from proximity switches with PNP or NPN output, TTL or CMOS logic, magnetic pickups, contact closures, and other signals from 12 mV to 250 Vac. Jumper selections provide optimum operation for different sensor types and noise conditions.
A built-in isolated 5, 10, or 24 Vdc excitation supply can power proximity switches and other sensors, and eliminate the need for an external power supply.
Plug-in isolated analog output, dual setpoint controller, and RS232/485 serial communications boards can upgrade Micro and Mighty Series stopwatch meters from a stand-alone display to system interface and control. The ability of the instruments to output an isolated 4-20 mA signal which tracks time may be unique among stopwatches.
Micro Series meters can be powered from 95-240 Vac ±10% and 95-370 Vdc, or optionally from 12-34 Vac and 10-48 Vdc. Any setup functions and front panel keys may be locked out for simplified usage and security. The popular 1/8 DIN version with 0.56″ high digits is environmentally sealed to NEMA-4X (IP65) from the front when panel mounted, and is available with red or green LEDs. All power and signal connections are via plug-in screw-clamp connectors.

The start and stop pulses used for timing can be generated by the dual relay board in a Micro analog panel meter or digital counter. For example, the start and stop pulse edges can be created as temperature passes two alarm setpoints, or temperature cycles in a hysteresis control mode.
An oscilloscope is great for viewing and timing pulses in a lab. However, in fixed installations where digital timing accuracy and control outputs are required, a low-cost Micro time stopwatch or interval meter will be the instrument of choice. Resolution to 0.2 µs is feasible.
