1 Unit MCQ LDCS

This document contains 20 multiple choice questions about data loggers, data acquisition systems, SCADA systems, and digital control systems. Some key points covered include: - Data loggers are portable, battery-powered devices that record data using microprocessors. They are similar to chart recorders. - Digital acquisition systems are used when bandwidth is low and for lower accuracy applications. They represent discrete events using integer variables. - SCADA systems have multiple levels and components like database servers, I/O systems, HMIs but not sparger controllers. The heart is the HMI. They perform functions like data acquisition, communication, and control. - RTUs interface between field sensors and the SCADA network
