It has the ability to read multiple types of load\r\ncells and offers a simple-to-use serial menu to configure calibration value,\r\nsample rate, time stamp and units of precision. Simply attach a four-wire or\r\nfive-wire load cell of any capacity, plug the OpenScale into a USB port, open\r\na terminal window at 9,600bps, and you’ll immediately see mass readings. The\r\nSparkFun OpenScale will enable you to turn a load cell or four load sensors in\r\na Wheatstone bridge configuration into the DIY weigh scale for your\r\napplication. The OpenScale was designed for projects and applications where\r\nthe load was static (like the beehive in front of SparkFun HQ) or where\r\nconstant readings are needed without user intervention (for example, on a\r\nconveyor belt system). A load cell with an equipped OpenScale can remain in\r\nplace for months without needing user interaction! On board the SparkFun\r\nOpenScale is the ATmega328P microcontroller, for addressing your\r\ncommunications needs and transferring your data to a serial terminal or to a\r\ndata logger such as the OpenLog, an FT231 with mini USB, for USB to serial\r\nconnection; the HX711, a 24-bit ADC for weigh scales; and the TMP102, for\r\nrecording the ambient temperature of your system. The OpenScale communicates\r\nat a TTL level of 9,600bps 8-N-1 by default and possesses a baud rate\r\nconfigurable from 1,200bps to 1,000,000bps.\u003c\/p\u003e \r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n  \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\r\n         \u003cli\u003eSparkFun OpenScale: Simple-to-use, open source solution for measuring weight and temperature while reading multiple types of load cells\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n         \u003cli\u003eThe OpenScale was designed for projects and applications where the load was static and\/or or where constant readings are needed without user intervention\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n         \u003cli\u003eFeatures: Operating Voltage: 5V, Operating Ampage: 80-100mA, Power Cycling above 500ms, Selectable 10SPS or 80SPS Output Data Rate, Local \u0026amp; External Temperature Sensors, Fixed \u0026amp; Adjustable Gain\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n         \u003cli\u003eATmega328P microcontroller: Used to address all of your communication and data needs transfer your data to a serial terminal or to a data logger such as the OpenLog, an FT231 with mini USB\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n         \u003cli\u003eFor a USB to serial connection: the HX711, a 24-bit ADC for weigh scales; and the TMP102, for recording the ambient temperature of your system-\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n         \u003cli\u003eThe OpenScale communicates at a TTL level of 9,600bps 8-N-1 by default and possesses a baud rate configurable from 1,200bps to 1,000,000bps.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SparkFun","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44154113228980,"sku":"B01MG28IZT","price":204.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0595\/9906\/1172\/files\/B01MG28IZT.jpg?v=1775785813","url":"https:\/\/auspowers.com\/products\/sparkfun-openscale-simple-to-use-open-source-solution-for-measuring-weight-and-temperature-includes-hx711-24-bit-adc-for-weigh-scales-tmp102-ft231-with-mini-usb-for-usb-to-serial-connection","provider":"AusPower Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
