Johns Hopkins applied physics laboratory awarded M+P International a contract for a 192-channel data acquisition and analysis system and a 64-channel vibration control system
The contract also includes modal acquisition and analysis, a remote analysis station and distributed multi-monitor support. M+P International's 192-channel, VXI-based VibRecorder data acquisition and analysis system offers sophisticated tools for online sine, random and shock data reduction, says the company. The data will be continuously recorded on two embedded VXI throughput disks of 73Gbyte each, guaranteeing gap-free recording.
For online analysis, the data can be replayed from the embedded disks.
The VibRunner, M+P International's vibration control and analysis system, based on VXIbus hardware technology and Windows NT/2000/XP operating system, will provide all control modes for all 64 input channels including random, sine (both with notching), shock, SRS, sine-on-random and random-on-random.
Data analysis tools include extensive data handling and analysis, single and multiple data graphing, custom report formatting as well as seamless integration with Microsoft Office products for test reporting.
Functionality will be further enhanced by M+P International's SmartOffice modal software package for sophisticated modal acquisition and analysis.
The VibRecorder data acquisition and analysis system and the VibRunner vibration controller have the same user interface translating to minimum user training and maximum ease of use.
Both are configured with remote networked PCs for test set-up and monitoring.
The multi-screen function supports several monitors for online display of large channel counts; each monitor has its own default layout set-up file for easy set-up of high-channel count tests.
