Data processors from Durham Instruments provide more computing power

The eDAQXR data processor, from Durham Instruments

Durham Instruments distributes many superior industrial measuring instruments in Canada, including HBM’s line of eDAQ mobile data processors. The newest member of the eDAQ family is the eDAQXR processor, which is capable of even more computing power than previous eDAQ products are – and is also more user-friendly.

An upgrade on mobile testing

The latest incarnation of the eDAQ rugged, mobile data acquisition modules, the eDAQXR is capable of handling both today’s common technologies and the ones on the cutting edge. It is compatible with eDAQ signal conditioning layers as well as SomatXR modules. In addition, the user does not need to install special software on a PC to use it, as the eDAQXR has its own free, easy-to-use intuitive software that is accessible through an Internet browser.

One design of this line of modules, the eXRCPU, supports seamless networking and an innovative web-based interface. Consisting of a main processor layer that enables flexible configurations for many applications, the eXRCPU has easy-to-use setup, control, monitoring and data visualization interfaces. It communicates through standards 100/1,000 Base-T Ethernet with either IPv4 or IPv6, and can work with multiple users and define and apply system-access and control restrictions on a per-user basis.

The eDAQXR is rife with both software and hardware advantages:

• Better real-time displays, including strip charts, FFT, digital displays and tables;
• Sensor database;
• Excel support;
• Spreadsheet view of channel data, enabling fast viewing and editing;
• E-mail access, for error notification;
• Simultaneous access to real-time information for multiple users;
• Migration path to future generation system;
• Operating voltage ranging from eight to 36 volts;
• Works in temperatures ranging from -40 to 80 degrees Celsius;
• System footprint that is 34 per cent smaller than that of previous eDAQ processors;
• Emulator for offline test setup; and
• TEDS, sense lines, higher sample rates and other features for future signal conditioning.

These features and more make the eDAQXR line of mobile data processors ideal for many applications in the aerospace, manufacturing, military, mining, research and development and transportation sectors.
