DC Wireless Connector — Chicago Dial Indicator (CDI) CDI LP-MIT

The DC Wireless Connector for CDI Logic IQ and Logic ALG gages is the hardware link between your CDI instrument and the MobileCollect Wireless automated measurement collection system. Unlike the Mini Mobile Module EVO (M3E), the Command Mobile Module enables bi-directional wireless communication — readings are commanded remotely by the MobileCollect Base Receiver or your SPC software. No button press, no operator touchpoint at the gage required.

How Automated Gage Reading Works

With the Command Mobile Module, the read cycle is controlled upstream. Read commands are issued by your SPC software via serial output to the Base Receiver, or triggered by a foot switch, hand switch, or wireless remote switch connected to the Base. The Base transmits the request wirelessly to the Command Mobile Module, which triggers the gage and immediately returns the measurement data — all without any operator action at the gage.

This architecture eliminates the human touchpoint in the measurement loop, directly reducing transcription error risk and supporting tighter SPC control limits. The Base can also request single or multiple readings per command cycle and issue sleep commands to extend battery life — all configurable from your host PC or application.

Compatible CDI Gages — Mitutoyo-Compatible Output

The MC-D-CDI-LP-MIT-6.5 is designed for Chicago Dial Indicator gages that use the LP-MIT connector and output Mitutoyo Digimatic-compatible data:

  • CDI Logic IQ Digital Indicators
  • CDI Logic ALG Digital Indicators
  • Starrett 2700 Digital Indicators

Other Versions of This Cable

MicroRidge also offers the CDI Logic IQ and Logic ALG cable/connector for other systems in the MobileCollect and GageWay product families:

M3 Connector — CDI LP-MIT — For the Mini Mobile Module EVO (M3E). The M3E is the compact transmitter for applications that only require operator-initiated reads at the gage. One-way wireless communication; smaller form factor than the DC.

OEM SPC Cable — CDI LP-MIT — For wired connections to the Digital Remote or GageWay interfaces. The Digital Remote provides two-way communication similar to the Command Mobile Module but over a wired connection — ideal for stationary measurement stations. Also compatible with all GageWay wired gage interfaces.

M3E vs. Command Mobile Module — Choosing the Right Transmitter

The Command Mobile Module (DC) supports both automated, remotely commanded reads and manual operator-initiated reads via its built-in read button — so it can do everything the M3E does, plus remote automation. The tradeoff is form factor: the DC is larger than the M3E to accommodate the higher-capacity battery required to sustain remote-triggered read cycles. If your application only requires operator-initiated reads at the gage and a compact transmitter profile is a priority, the Mini Mobile Module EVO (M3E) is the right transmitter for that use case.

Part of the MobileCollect Wireless Network

MobileCollect is a brand-agnostic measurement collection platform — it doesn’t lock you into a single gage manufacturer. Whether your shop floor runs Mitutoyo calipers alongside Mahr micrometers, Starrett indicators, or Fowler height gages, MobileCollect connects them all into a single wireless SPC data network. This connector is one component in that system. To complete the automated wireless link, pair this connector with a Command Mobile Module transmitter (MC-MM-DC) and a MobileCollect Base Receiver.
