The imc busDAQ is a
CANbus data acquisition system. It can be connected to CANbus device
such as
sensors, measurement amplifiers or electronic control
units and supports up to 8 nodes as well as a variety of protocols such
as CCP and KWP2000.
Measured data transmitted via CANbus can be triggered,
displayed and mathematically processed. The busDAQ is configured using
the very user-friendly software imcDevices and can be saved expressed in
their physical units. Some models can be connected to the LIN and ARINC
busses, in addition to CANbus.
No
programming skills required!
busDAQ, like all other imc measurement devices, is
configured and operated using imcDevices. This MS-Windows software comes
as standard and enables quick and reliable measurement operation without
the need for any programming skills or a deep understanding of CANbus.
imcDevices allows measurement parameters, real-time functions, trigger
machines, and storage modes to be set either manually or automatically.
Display of measurement data plots in the Curve Window, as well as report
composition with the Report Generator, are integral components of
imcDevices.
Vector database linkage
In many cases, parameter settings are already available
as a Vector database that can be imported by any busDAQ modules. This
makes it possible to set large amounts of parameters quickly and easily.
The data storage media used are either Compact Flash data carriers or
IDE hard drives, having various data storage capacities depending on
requirements allowing “stand-alone” PC independent operation. The
standard Ethernet TCP/IP interface enables easy connection to the PC or
integration into decentralized measurement networks.
busDAQ – a Personal
Analyzer
The most important
of imcDevices’ enhancements is the DSP
computation unit Online FAMOS, which enables the definition of real-time
functions and makes busDAQ a Personal Analyzer. In real time “virtual”
channel can be computed from the raw data and displayed. A wide range of
math and statistics functions, FFT, class-counting etc. are available
for the user.
busDAQ – Data
Analysis
The newest version
of the signal analysis software imc FAMOS offers extensive options for
analysis, evaluation and documentation of measurement results. The
busDAQ unit saves the data directly in imc FAMOS format.
Application Areas
busLOG – Data
Collector
This affordable
module has permanently configured basic functions for standard, clearly
defined data logging tasks. Its low power consumption, its signal-driven
“Sleep Mode” and its capacity for rapid continuation of measurement by
means of "Wake up on CAN", in only 200 ms, makes the busLOG particularly
suitable for vehicle and fleet test applications. In such applications,
the module’s high degree of data integrity, its self-activation mode,
and its remote monitoring capability via Internet are great assets.
busDAQ-2 –
Intelligent Measurement Networks
busDAQ-2 with its
two nodes and expanded functions such as online functions, WLAN, modem,
Display, and direct GPS connection is the standard module for
measurement networks with decentralized CAN devices such as sensors,
control units or imc CANSAS measurement modules.
busDAQ-X – Multi-bus / Multi-protocol Data Logger
busDAQ-X is the
universal, configurable system module which can be expanded with
additional multi-bus interfaces to up to 8 nodes. With the extended
functions, such as online-functions, WLAN, modem, Display, digital in-
and outputs, as well as direct GPS connection, even complex measurement
networks or dive test applications are no problem.
Key
busDAQ features
2, 4, 6 or 8 CAN-nodes
Up to 512 field bus/measurement channels per configuration
