iM-AD25a Ethernet 16 Channel DAQ Unit


Description

 

The iM-AD25a is a low cost Ethernet based data acquisition unit with 16 analogue inputs and 4 digital outputs. Data can be acquired at up to 25kHz rate at 16-bit resolution. The unit has a Sync connection, so several units can be connected and synchronized for large channel count systems. Compatible with the MAL series of signal conditioning modules for connection of thermocouples, RTD's and strain gauges etc.

Supplied with a copy of NextView4-Live software for data acquisition and control and a wide selection of Windows, MAC and Linux programming examples.

Description

 

The iM-AD25a is a professional but low cost Ethernet based data acquisition unit with 16 analogue inputs, and 4 digital outputs. Data can be acquired at up to 25kHz rate at 16-bit resolution. The iM-AD25a uses TCP/IP which guarantees reliable data transmission and even makes transmission via internet possible. All I/O are presented via a 37-way D-type sockets. The user can connect to this directly or optional expansion boards are available. Also compatible with the MAL series of signal conditioning modules for connection of thermocouples, strain gauges etc.

Synchronization of the individual devices to each other is possible. The devices are connected with each other via a 2-wire line. If desired, the synchronization can be related to the absolute time, which is realized by the optional DCF synchronization module of the server unit. With synchronization a time accuracy of ±2ms can be achieved.

Configuration of the iM-AD25a (e.g. assignment of the TCP/IP address) is done with the software iM Admin. Drivers are available for Windows, MAC and Linux operating systems. The MEM-ADFO is supplied with an Active-X component and comprehensive programming examples for use with most common programming languages. There are also VI for use with LabVIEW and there is a MEM-ADFO component ion the ProfiLab programming package.

The iM-AD25a is also supplied with a copy of nextView4-Live data acquisition and control software. With NextView-Live, the user can acquire and analyse data, set analogue and digital outputs and read the status of the digital inputs. The user can create their own screens, with chart displays, text, alarm panels, output sliders etc.

NOTE - The Live version of NextView does not allow acquired data to be saved to disk for analysis later or exported to Excel. When the program is closed, all acquired data is lost. Please see other versions of NextView for this functionality. Also see the RealView software for a chart recorder package that can export data to Excel for analysis.
