Measurement Computing Corporation has announced the release of its new high-speed, USB-based analog input interface, providing 16 simultaneously-sampled 16-bit analog inputs.
Monitoring and controlling high voltage, current
USB-based, high-voltage, high-current, digital I/O module provides eight isolated 24V AC/DC inputs and eight 6A Form C relays at 240V AC/28V DC contact ratings.
Relay monitoring 5 devices without external hub
Measurement Computing Corporation has launched its USB-SSR24, a USB-based device for monitoring and controlling solid-state relays.
The Diagram module may be configured as an enhanced Y/t chart, X/Y chart, or data chart recorder.
It supports multiple Y-axis and allows the user to freely assign signals to each Y-axis.
For easy comparison of the time domain waveforms, users can define the offset used to display a signal, and can dynamically move a signal around within the graphical display to compare one signal with another.
* Module Benchmarking - the Benchmarking feature measures and records the execution times of individual modules in a test program, allowing users to identify throughput bottlenecks and to optimise performance.
* User defined order of actions - the enhanced Action module now allows the user to specify the execution order of the actions, providing precise control over timing or sequence.
* OPC Driver - the improved OPC driver is simpler to use, has a more powerful core, and supports multiple OPC-servers.
* FFT and FFT related functions - FFT and other related modules can now process data using any block size, improving the quality and precision of the computation.
* Other improvements - these include sequencer support for HTML file export and the ability to import and export global variables and strings automatically at measurement start and stop.
"Test program developers will benefit from the time-saving enhancements made to the graphical interface and data management tools," said Jim Ficaro, Measurement Computing's director of marketing, "And profit from the ability to analyze and optimize test throughput".
Measurement Computing told manufacturingtalk.com that DASYLab is offered in four different development editions: Lite, Basic, Full, Pro, and a Runtime-only version for program deployment.
