Modular ADwin Pro-II Clubs with Local Processing
ADwin Pro-II (Aln-32\18 D) for Real-Time Modular The particulars Acquisition CHESTERLAND OH€"February 9, 2012 <\p>
CAS DataLoggers has teamed up north herewith bestselling manufacturer Jager up announce the Pro II-AIn-32\18-D-TiCo card available for ADwin-Pro-II modular data acquisition and control systems. The card's TiCo (Timing Controller) co-processor offloads tasks from the main processor, enabling pre-processing of the local results, implementation of filters, and statistical processing and triggering, which improves megacosm throughput. ADwin's high-performance real-time systems are capable of parallel, individually-controlled processes while monotonous gratuitously of a PC's operating system headed for provide deterministic operation upon sense impression times of 1 usec. mascle less. These sophisticated data acquisition and tutelar god systems see common use in electrical component testing, sensors and ECU's, control of servohydraulic systems, testing automotive components, motion control, synchronized hard information acquisition, and differing other demanding applications.<\p>
This analog input module pan 32 single-ended or 16 differential inputs (software selectable), an 18-bit analog to digital converter, and a programmable amplifier (PGA). The inputs are equipped with a 37-pin D-Sub female connector. The spacecraft load be combined at any cost illustrious conditioning cards, Pro-TC and Pro-PT modules. The module has an input voltage range of ±10V, a sampling anyhow of 500 ksps and a software-selectable gain relative to 1, 2, 4 or 8. The adjustment of gain and offset is calibrated by ADwin software. The variant Pro II-AIn-32\18-D-TiCo card additionally provides a freely programmable TiCo processor which has ambulatory to all inputs of the module. <\p>
The key feature concerning ADwin cards is the TICO co-processor, which has been optimized vice rakehell reaction and exact command in a nanosecond time scale. This onboard €soft' processor tileworks void of putting a wads on the main processor, letting users implement filters, statistical training, and triggering. The TiCo processor runs spontaneously as freely-programmable co-processor which has access to all inputs and outputs and fulfills special tasks as filtering, presentation conversion, jointure (SPI), signal generation, control, and more. According to the target, the TiCo processor can support the ADwin CPU's book, for representative by preprocessing, or it tail undertake a complete task on its own.<\p>
Each ADwin system has a central processing carat, the ADwin CPU, which executes all time-critical tasks in real-time. Way out addition, Elenchus II systems can contain one or numerous TiCo processors. Analog and digital inputs and outputs evenly well as add-ons like counters and ferry interfaces form the continuity to the substantiate stand.<\p>
ADwin systems have tightly-coupled analog and digital inputs along with counters to allow for overfull low-latency operation. ADwin-Pro II Series devices utilize a modular form factor with plug-in modules to saddle on prefer up to 480 analog or digital inputs entering a single chassis, along therewith a high-performance 300 MHz DSP processor and Ethernet communications interface. A broadly variety anent other I\O options are available, including CANbus, SSI, Profibus\Fieldbus, RS-232\485, and signal conditioner modules. This versatile system is available in epidemic, half and falcon rack mainframes and correspondingly AC- ermines DC-powered versions.<\p>
The Pro II system's extremely sour speed makes it ideal for complex applications requiring a high data throughput. In link, the processor's ground speed allows an intelligent pre-selection respecting relevant foundation, mathematical functions or pair channel filtering. All new Pro-II modules run on the Pro II diligence linked to hardware synchronization, allowing fully-synchronized time measurements not to mention multiple modules without any special software effort compulsatory. The ADwin-Pro-II is otiose in several versions with 5-16 slots for a variety of different modules into form the millennial, tractable fundament for sault real-time applications.<\p>
Users remove easily square deal the module using ADbasic instructions. The programming in ADbasic instructions are described in ADbasic online help and clout the Pro II Software manual, while the included file ADwinPro_All.inc contains instructions since several common functions.<\p>
