Customized Configuration For Changing Needs

The DAQ-9600 is a modularized data acquisition system with high flexibility and higher performance effectively fulfilling different measurement requirements by expansion and change making the overall test simpler, faster and more reliable. The mainframe provides 3 module slots, and all of which can be used to install and control selected modules. At the core of its test and measurement is its precise built-in 6 1/2 digital DMM which provides basic accuracy of 0.0035% DC voltage, 0.05% AC voltage, and 0.01% resistance within a one-year calibration cycle.

The modular structure of the DAQ-9600 and its 3 module slots and 5 optional modules, consist of general-purpose modules (DAQ-900/ DAQ-901), multi-function module (DAQ-903), matrix module (DAQ-904) and high-voltage and high-current module (DAQ-909). Users can combine and match arbitrarily according to the measurement needs. Since the DMM is built-in, it will not take up the slot space for maximum flexibility to expand channels to 60 two-wire channels or 120 single-ended channels or 96 matrix crosspoints. In addition, its concise function key design, allowing users to quickly and easily arrange module channels in an intuitive way. The measurement channels of each module can be configured independently, including measurement function, range, speed and the advanced measurement functions such as offset compensation. Data is then presented in different formats, such as numerical values, bar graphs, trend graph and histogram to quickly check the measurement results. At the same time, the DAQ-9600 can convert 14 input signals, including temperature (RTD/thermocouple/thermistor), voltage (AC/DC), current (AC/DC), resistance (two-wire/four-wire), Strain (direct/bridge), frequency/period, and capacitance.

The results acquired by the DAQ-9600 can be stored without connecting to a PC with the non-volatile memory capacity of 100k readings or if preferred, directly record to a USB flash drive. For remote setting and control of data logging applications, the DAQ-9600 is equipped with LAN, USB and GPIB (optional), and provides free DAQ-Data Logger software to simplify data collection and analysis, allowing users to easily collect data. Users can monitor the measurement results no matter where they are as long as they are connected to the Internet.
