Plug-And-Play Data Acquisition For Mac OS X
January 18, 2005
VVI today announced the release of DAQ Plot version 9.7.1, which adds
plug-and-play low-cost and high-precision data acquisition hardware in
addition to many advanced processing features. John Brilhart, Chief
Technical Officer of VVI, made this statement:
"DAQ Plot is the quickest and easiest way to view data from sensors and
laboratory equipment with voltage connectors. Simply plug the
accompanying data acquisition hardware into your computer's USB
connector and DAQ Plot is ready to use it. With DAQ Plot, engineers
better understand their process and manufacturing systems, scientists
gain easy access to their research data and educators and students
demonstrate and learn about voltage and electrical concepts. Because of
its ease of use, power and versatility DAQ Plot is applied to many
situations to give immediate and highly interpretable output. Now with
both low-cost and high-precision hardware it is even more applicable to
a variety of projects."
DAQ Plot version 9.7.1 adds these new features:
- Plug-and-play USB DAQ hardware. Plug in one or more of the standard
or pro hardware devices and DAQ Plot is ready to use them.
- Real-time backup of collected data so, for example, if the computer
looses power the data is still there, can be automatically restored and
acquisition can auto start again after boot.
- A real-time streaming data logger so other process, custom
applications, CGI and Web applications can access data from the
hardware.
- Real-time data processing such as bin and running averages, trigger
detection, counters and speed computation.
- Channel scatter remapping and channel state setting so the channels
on DAQ devices can be used more effectively.
- Three interface styles from easy to advanced. Choose easy for
uncluttered controls or advanced for useful professional features.
- User interface that alters according to the hardware connected to the
computer.
