Reference table for communication types by instrument.See below for a table of different communication protocols by instrument. Cells with a 'Y' are compatible, empty cells are not compatible.
The USBee ZX Platform delivers the highest level of integration and functionality in the test instrument market. With 8 digital I/Os, the USBee ZX combines many functions into one; protocol analyzer, logic analyzer and signal generator as will as other useful tools.
Some cells will contain a superscript number with the Y (such as Y 1 ). This is an indication that the numbered foot note below the table that matches the number of the superscript is applicable to this cell. These foot notes can be important as it may only be compatible under certain circumstances which are outlined in the footnote.

Only some sensors are approved for use with HART. These systems have the capability to connect to an external controller (See: ). If connected to an SC1000, then these protocols are possible.
These protocols are only possible with an I/O900x. The Orbisphere 366xEX can also use RS232-RS485 Serial.
