SAFETY

The DeltaSens interrogator is equipped with a class 1M laser device. The infrared laser light is coupled

out via the optical fiber connector on the front panel. Do not stare into the laser beam or view it

directly with optical instruments.

Before applying power to the instrument make sure that the voltage rating displayed next to the fuse

port matches the voltage of your local supply. If not, the installed fuses need to be replaced by the

user.

Except for the mains fuses, there are no user serviceable parts in this product.

All statements regarding safety of operation and technical data in this instruction manual will only

apply when the unit is operated correctly.

The unit is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug.

Before applying power to the instrument make sure that the plug is connected into a properly

installed and grounded outlet. Improper grounding can cause electric shock with damages to your

health or even death. The instrument must not be operated in explosion-endangered environments.

Do not remove covers.

Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

Do not obstruct the ventilation vents of the unit.

INTRODUCTION

This document describes the DeltaSens system installation and usage. The first section describes

system connections and installation, together with a brief introduction to the software and its first

configuration steps. The second section includes a more detailed description of the software and all

its functionalities. In the third section a brief overview of the capabilities of the system and its working

principle are presented. The last section includes the technical specifications of the instrument.

1. INSTALLATION

This section describes the installation of the DeltaSens system. It provides an overview of the

DeltaSens elements, wiring scheme and actions required to start up and configure the DeltaSens

interrogator unit.

1.1. DeltaSens system overview

The central element of the DeltaSens system is the interrogator unit. It acquires the optical signal

from the array of sensors, processes it and provides the user with both analog and digital outputs to

analyze it. To configure the interrogator and setup the measurement parameters, the unit needs to

be connected to a computer with the DeltaSens software installed on it.

1.1.1. DeltaSens operating principle

DeltaSens is a stand-alone system that simultaneously interrogates multiple Fabry-Pérot (FP) sensors

connected through an optical fiber network. By using a single read-out to measure multiple

transducers, DeltaSens provides a cost-effective sensing solution without compromising on

performances. The distance between the sensors and the read-out can vary from centimeters up to

several kilometers.

DeltaSens uses interferometry to measure multiple low-finesse Fabry-Pérot sensors, and therefore

provides a reduced cost per sensor while maintaining high sensitivity and acquisition speed. In

combination with Optics11 fiber-top technology, it can support the measurement of a broad range

of physical parameters such as acceleration, pressure or temperature.

1.1.2. Connections

The DeltaSens unit houses an optical fiber connector on the front panel and several electrical

connectors on the rear panel. The front panel connector is a FC/APC socket used to connect the

sensing fiber. To connect multiple sensors to a single interrogator unit, one or more fiber splitters

might be needed depending on the use case. The front and rear panels of the unit are presented in

Figure 2.

The rear panel houses the following connectors:

•Power inlet with fuse port (note that to power the unit with 115 V AC, the fuses must be

changed from 0.8 A to 1.6 A and the fuse holder should be reversed.)

•RJ-45 Ethernet port for computer connection.

•USB type A port for debug connection.

•RS232 port for debug connection.

•8 BNC connectors for analog outputs.

•3 BNC connectors for external clock and trigger.

•DB-9 connector for 4 additional analog outputs.

The device must be connected to the power supply with the provided power cable and to a computer

or LAN with the provided Ethernet cable or equivalent ones.

The sensors can be connected to the front FC/APC port using compatible FC/APC fiber connectors.

Both the interrogator FC/APC port and the sensor FC/APC connectors should be kept as clean as

possible and protected with the provided protective cap when not connected. A periodic cleaning of

the FC/APC connectors is required to ensure proper operation of the system. It is recommended to

use tailored cleaning products such as fiber cleaning cloth spools.

Figure 2: DeltaSens front and rear panels

The interrogator is a standalone device meaning it can operate without being connected to a

computer. If not connected to a computer, the unit will operate according to the latest configurations

set by the user. Such configurations can be edited only by connecting the unit to a computer with the

DeltaSens software installed on it. The software also allows to control the measurement parameters,

acquire and record signals and analyse them.

Before connecting the interrogator to the computer, please install the accompanying software and

necessary drivers.

To configure the interrogator, connect it to the power supply and to the computer (or your LAN

network) with the provided cables. After turning the device on, it will take it around 1 minute to boot

and load the previous configurations. After booting, the device will start operating according to the

latest configurations set via software by the user. It will acquire the signals and generate the digital

and analog output signals according to the loaded settings. After booting, the device can be

accessed via software to update and edit its configurations.

1.2.Starting the software

1.2.1. Setting the unit IP address

The device connects with the computer using the Ethernet protocol. It can be connected through

LAN or directly to the operating PC. In both cases the IP address of the device must be looked up

and set in the software to allow remote control of the unit. While booting, the software will look for

the interrogator unit at the latest IP address set by the user. If no unit is found at that address, the “IP

Discovery” tool will appear to help the user identifying the unit IP address (see Figure 3).

Figure 3: IP Discovery tool

•Configured IP –last IP address set by the user.

•Available NICs IP –interface controllers IPs available in the network.

•IP to scan –allows to specify the range of IP addresses to scan to search for the unit.

•Port –port used to try to ping with the unit, should be set to 10002 as default.

•Timeout –how long the software will wait for a response when pinging an IP address.

•Box IP –IP address at which the DeltaSens was found by the “Discovery Tool”.
