The SCADA Lynx Model 50386 is a cutting-edge transmitter system that incorporates a dual-processor design to efficiently manage sensor data, alarm conditions, telemetry communication, and data logging. This versatile device supports multiple functions, such as transmitting, repeating, and receiving data while offering alarm testing and control capabilities. A user-friendly MS Windows software toolkit enables easy configuration through COM port or telemetry link using ScadaLynx and Modbus protocols.

Real Time ScadaLynx Model 50386 A New Technology Transmitter
System Applications • Satellite • SCADA Two-Way Radio • ALERT/IFLOWS • Phone Modem • Data Logging • Multiple Path
Dual Processor Design • Allows the 50386 to run on batteries with solar panel recharge • The main processor is a high power 386EX microprocessor • It performs its duties then shuts down to conserve power • A second low power PIC I/O processor wakes up the 386 on events
The 386EX Microprocessor • Collects and processes sensor data • Tests for alarm conditions • Drives the communication telemetry • Performs controls • Logs data in 2MB Flash memory
Low Power PIC I/O Processor • Waits for a 386 wake up condition • Counts digital sensor events and wakes when programmable changes are met • Monitors data telemetry and wakes when communications are active • Wakes at timed intervals
Input/Output Support • 16 (16-bit) analog inputs • 12 digital status inputs • 4 low speed pulse inputs • 4 high speed pulse inputs (wind) • 8 digital control outputs • SDI-12 sensor interface
Multiple Function Unit • Transmitter • Repeater • Receiver • Repeating RTU
Analyze Data Before Transmitting • Sample over an interval • Compute the mean, max or min • Compute totals or differences • Transmit raw and/or computed data
Multi-Path Communication • 6 communication ports available • Receive on one or more ports • Retransmit on the same or another port • Change report format for retransmission • Limit retransmission to station ID ranges • Remember transmissions to prevent talk back
Alarm Testing and Control • Set upper and lower alarm limits • Set a change alarm limit • Alarms are reset by value or time • Alarms activate transmissions or control • Digital controls can turn on samplers, lights, low water crossing arms
Laptop Programming Toolkit • A MS Windows software program allows you configure the 50386 • Program through a COM port or through a telemetry link • Programming protocols include ScadaLynx and Modbus
