Programmable Smart Switch

     
         
 
  • Computer controlled On/Off for non-programmable accessories
  • Timer function with infinite loop or cycle capability for walk away applications
  • Robotic platform integration to synchronize lab accessories with specific robotic steps
     
 

The new V&P Scientific Programmable Smart Switch (VP 700 series) is designed to give your lab accessories more functionality.  By simply plugging the power cord into a Smart Switch outlet you can control up to 3 electric components (one 15 amp circuit and two 2 amp circuits).  Robots can also interface with our Programmable Smart Switch to control robotic accessories integrated into their platform.  The V&P software provided with the Smart Switch is programmable for up to 10,000 separate timing intervals.  This also includes a loop function that allows an infinite number of cycles.

     
 
The Programmable Smart Switch can be operated in the following modes:

Sequence Timer Mode
 Create a sequence of up to 10,000 different timers per outlet.  The computer can automatically control the power outlets with either a set number of cycles or an infinite run of the sequence.

Scheduled Timer Mode
 Turn a power outlet on at a scheduled time. 

Direct Mode
Direct control each of the 3 power outlets separately through an RS 232 port.  Allowing for switching on and off at anytime.

Robot Mode
Direct integration into robotic platforms allows automated control of accessories such as: Tumble Stirrers, Bubble Paddle Reservoir Stirrers, Peristaltic pumps, Heating Blocks and Sonicators for specific steps in the robot protocol.  All you need to do is write a simple driver program for your robot that will send a simple ASCII string to the VP 700 to turn on or off each  of the three power outlets at designated sequences of the robot script or program.

Windows Compatible

Controlled easily through a RS-232C port.
