Option allows the display of multiple online graphic windows on multiple display monitors using the same system PC workstation and/or a remote PC workstation with or without multiple monitors attached
With the increasing popularity of multi-output PC workstation graphics cards and the increasing demand for remote monitoring of ongoing vibration control tests, M+P International has introduced the Multi-Screen option to both its VibControl vibration and VibRecorder data acquisition and analysis system solutions.
The Multi-Screen option allows the display of multiple online graphic windows on multiple display monitors using the same system PC workstation and/or a remote PC workstation with or without multiple monitors attached.
On the local PC workstation that performs the vibration control test, using a multiple output graphics card, up to eight monitors can display a total of eight online graphics programs, each displaying up to 16 windows, including up to four spectra/time traces per window.
All of this adds up to 64 spectra per online display program, including PSD, linear spectra, transfer functions between any set of test channels.
In total, eight monitors allow for online real time display of up to 512 spectra, all user-definable, with the possibility to store/load pre-defined layouts per online display program.
Of course, for many users this may not seem that important as 512 channels is well above their normal operating parameters.
However, it works well with just four channels, each one with a full screen display, improving clarity and allowing the user to get an instant picture of what is going on with greater ease, says M+P.
