Power monitoring of the control board using a wireless LAN

Simple data logging system utilizing USB power supply of VZ20X

Customers want to monitor the amount of electricity consumed by each production equipment in order to conserve energy in the factory, but it is not easy to install a measurement system in existing equipment, even from the installation and wiring conditions.
The Multi-Sensing Remote I/O Analog Sensing Unit VZ20X compact size allows it to be installed for existing conditions. Accurate sensing also contributes to the visualization of power usage at production equipment.
