Data acquisition system suits structural tests

A M+P International product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Jul 30, 2007

M+P International's Coda data acquisition system handles high channel counts and large quantities of data.

Static and dynamic structural tests are a specialty of Coda, the new data acquisition and analysis system from M+P International.

Features include measurements with single and multi-channel strain gauges, real-time strain and stress calculations, limit checking and communication with the load control system.

Coda is suited to applications with high channel counts and large quantities of data, as well as structural load cycling and dynamic testing, static and dynamic measurements on engine test stands, general-purpose measurements on products and test assemblies and long-term continuous product and process data acquisition in production.

It can handle measurements of temperatures, pressures, forces, accelerations, frequencies and strains.

High-channel count applications using hundreds of channels can be configured within a very short time and are handled safely and efficiently.

Coda supports a wide range of VXIbus and LXIbus front-ends which are ideally suited for many measurement tasks in industry and in the laboratory because of their performance, measurement accuracy and reliability.

Other measurement instrumentation can be easily integrated and Coda also communicates with subordinate process computers for data transfer from existing equipment.

Key features such as client/server architecture, SQL data base for parameter management, automatic front-end identification, real-time analysis of virtual channels using user-specific mathematical functions, alarm functions with user-definable alarm actions specified for every channel, data replay or data export into common file formats ensure the economy and efficiency of every Coda project.
