| TBS03 USB-SDI-12 Converter | The TBS03 is a versatile USB to SDI-12 converter, an essential companion for anyone involved in configuring and testing SDI-12 sensors. The unit connects to the USB port on a PC and is supplied with “SDI-12 Commander” a terminal emulator which allows you to save config files for all your sensors, providing simple single click configuration. It is available in 3 versions: TBS03 with SDI-12 commands; TBS03-01 with auto measurement and bus sniffer mode; TBS03-02 with full SDI-12 compatibility testing. View TBS03 brochure |

| TBS02PA Analogue and Pulse to SDI-2 Converter | For years, people have been calling for a more economical way to build automatic weather stations. Yes, there are multi-sensor climate instruments on the market but these all suffer from one major disadvantage: if any sensor element fails, you must remove the whole unit and send it for repair, which can lead to long periods with no weather data. For this reason many people prefer to use individual sensors, but the cost of loggers & telemetry units which support multiple analogue sensors as well as fast pulse counters for wind speed, has proved a barrier. The Tekbox TBS02PA is the answer. It does all of the hard work for you, converting signals from a host of analogue and pulse climate sensors to the SDI-12 format, enabling you to use lower cost SDI-12 loggers / telemetry. The TBS02PA comes in a polycarbonate enclosure and is fitted with 8 stainless steel cable glands. View TBS02PA brochure. |

| TBS02A4 4-20mA to SDI-12 Converter | Like the TBS02PA, the TBS02A4 is an analogue to SDI-12 converter. It carries 4 analogue channels, which are configured as 4-20mA inputs. By changing links on the board you can switch the inputs to 0-2.5V range. The TBS02A4 is supplied as a bare PCB for incorporation into your own enclosure. View TBS02A4 Brochure. |

| TBS04 SDI-12 Junction Box | The 8 Port Junction Box from Tekbox is intended for quick and easy connection of the cables from multiple SDI-12 sensors to a logger or telemetry unit. The unit is built around a Fibox enclosure and has 7 stainless steel cable glands. A DIN rail mounted version is also available. Inside is a set of 8 off, 4 way cage clamps. A breather vent on the enclosure helps avoid moisture build-up inside the case. View TBS04 Port Junction Box brochure |

| TBS07-TBS10 SDI-12 Range Extenders | The Tekbox TBS07 - TBS10 combination allow you to increase the range of SDI-12 communications beyond the recommended 60m limit. The units will also prove effective in high noise environments. The TBS10 unit is installed at the data logger or telemetry unit in place of the SDI-12 sensor. It takes its power from the SDI-12 bus and converts the SDI-12 signals to RS-485 format enabling them to be sent over long cable runs. A TBS10 unit is installed at each sensor location and its job is to convert the RS485 signals back to SDI-12. The TBS07 and TBS10 are available in a DIN Rail mounting or plastic enclosure.

| TBS09DR Modbus to SDI-12 Converter | The TBS09DR is a MODBUS to SDI-12 converter. It allows up to 10 MODBUS sensors (RS485 only) to be connected to an SDI-12 compatible telemetry unit or data logger The TBS09 is available as a bare PCB or in a DIN Rail mounting enclosure. The unit is programmed using extended SDI-12 commands. Each MODBUS sensor is mapped to a separate SDI-12 measurement (!0 through M9!) . Users can choose the warm up time, the register type, the data type for the values and what register will be read. The TBS09 also allows you to set an initialisation string which will be issued to the sensor to trigger a measurement. View TBS09DR Brochure. |
