blue data acquisition systemKistler has developed its new data acquisition (DAQ) system Type 5697A… for recording data in R&D laboratory applications. It is suitable for acquiring and evaluating up to 28 channels at a high sampling rate. The system is supported by data acquisition and evaluation software DynoWare Type 2825A…

The acquisition box, which holds the HASP key (dongle) with runtime license, controls the charge amplifier or signal conditioner directly via RS-232C interface. A USB 2.0 interface makes the system independent of PCI and PCMCIA interfaces. Power is supplied via a robust Binder connector. Measurements can be started remotely via the D-sub connector incorporated in the acquisition box.

The new version of DynoWare is designed primarily for measuring forces with dynamometers or single- or multicomponent sensors. It includes different functions for online visualization, signal evaluation and calculation, individual documentation and saving of configuration and measurement data. It configures and controls all Kistler laboratory charge amplifiers and signal conditioners, now also including single-channel charge amplifier Type 5018A… and multichannel amplifier Type 5080A…

computer chipThe Industrial Automation Group of Advantech introduced the PCM-3810I, a 250kS/s, 12-bit, 16-ch multifunction PCI-104 module. This is Advantech’s first multifunction PCI-104 module and integrates digital I/O, analog I/O, and counter functions in one small module for various embedded system applications, eliminating costs and saving space.

To meet demanding task requirements, PCM-3810I possesses the highest sampling rate among all of Advantech’s PC/104 modules and supports many advanced trigger modes, such as pre-trigger, post-trigger, delay-trigger, and about-trigger.

With its self-stacking bus and pin-and-socket connector technology, PCM-3810I resists strong vibrations and can be reliably stacked on other PC/104, PC/104 plus, and PCI-104 modules. As part of a package bundled with Advantech’s Device Manager and support for several data logging tools, libraries, and examples (WaveScan, Visual C++, Visual Basic, Visual C#, Visual Basic. NET, Borland C++ builder, Delphi, and LabView), PCM-3810I saves time and effort on software development as well. To purchase or if you have any questions, please contact your regional Advantech authorized dealer for more information.
