Data Translation has launched a versatile, USB-based system providing signal conditioning and modular data acquisition capability for the PC.
Data Translation today unveiled DATAX, a total measurement system solution providing signal conditioning and modular data acquisition capability for the PC.
The DATAX System is contained in a rugged DATAX Box for easy modular connectivity, with a built-in USB data acquisition function.
DATAX comes with Scope, a ready-to-run software application developed specifically for use with the DATAX System.
Offering 16 slots for any combination of DAQ and PAD plug-in modules, DATAX is a fully customisable, application-specific system.
The different combinations make the system limitless in terms of the applications it can perform. With such versatility, the system lends itself to a wide range of industries, such as automotive, industrial, manufacturing, and research and development.
Each plug-in module has these unique features: 1000 V rms isolation for protection against noise and harsh environments; isolated multi-channel measurements for countless industrial applications; and fully programmable range and filter settings.
"DATAX can handle just about any physical or electrical phenomenon a user needs to measure.
With this product, Data Translation expands its market reach beyond data acquisition components to provide our customers with powerful and complete measurement solutions," said Nigel Doe, UK Sales Manager for Data Translation Ltd.
The DATAX System has these key features: Application-specific Customisation.
Users can select the individual DAQ or PAD modules for their customised DATAX System, creating a system that is specific for their individual application needs.
The system offers a wide range to choose from, including voltage, thermocouple, RTDs, strain gages, and accelerometers.
Ready-to-Run Software.
Developed specifically for the DATAX System, Scope emulates three basic instruments: a simple oscillographic chart recorder, a data logger, and a multi-channel oscilloscope.
The intuitive graphical user interface allows users to point and click to perform measurement functions as well as control the programmable modulesû filter settings and gain ranges.
Scope comes free on the new Data Acquisition Omni CD?, which contains all the software necessary to use Data Translation boards and develop applications.
Easy Connection and Portability.
The DATAX System connects easily to a userûs PC or laptop through the USB "plug and play" connection.
Weighing only 11 pounds, the system can be easily transferred from one work station to another.
A Rugged Case for Harsh Conditions.
The DATAX System is enclosed in a protective metal case for optimal performance even under the harshest industrial conditions.
Pricing, Availability and Support.
The DATAX System is available immediately at a base price beginning at œ3,695.00
