System Use and Description
The CES100 extended area sources provide stable and uniform graybody
radiation for test and calibration of infrared sensors and systems. These
sources are designed for laboratory or field use and feature fast slew
rates, PID control and built in IEEE488 and RS232 computer interfaces.
Configuration
These sources are available in stand alone con-figuration or integrated
into one of the many Target Projectors/Simulators and Automatic Test
Stations EOI offers. Emitting surface sizes range from 2" x 2"
to 24" x 24".
The optional MicroCavity® emitting surface provides a
significant improvement in effective emissivity. |

Computer Interfaces
Complete computerized control of the system is available through
built-in interfaces.
- IEEE 488
- RS-232

- RS-485
All four interfaces are resident in controller. The IEEE 488 and any
one of the RS formats may be used at the same time.
Calibration
Each CES System is calibrated at EOI
prior to shipment. Recommended calibration cycle is 6 months. Calibration
is traceable to  .
Calibration tables are stored in memory and are easily updated via the
front panel keypad. |
