Ethernet modules aid distributed monitoring
Pointscan is an Ethernet based monitoring and control system.
The DPC2 card has been designed to be easily programmable for use with the Windows CE operating system.
It can also be used with Windows 95/98, 2k and NT with an additional PC card convertor.
The card allows users to input and output a mixture of analogue and digital I/O easily with the supplied configuration software.
Sampling rates are user selectable from hours right up to 40kHz.
This makes the DPC2 a very flexible card enabling users to log data for traditionally quick type applications such as vibration analysis through to slower temperature type applications.
Data acquisition and analysis systems can now make use of the excellent features of hand held PCs such as high resolution screens, PC docking stations and GSM/LAN networking.
These, together with a wide range of available software such as Excel and Access, as well as the DPC2 data acquisition suite, now make system development an affordable task.
