HWSW DAQ
“HWSW DAQ” is data acquisition software to measure analog input and drive analog output signals. “HWSW DAQ” is used to record, analyze and convert data acquisition files and consists of the applications:
- Chart recorder which can measure and output analog signals. The measured analog signals can be recorded to a data acquisition file.
- Analyzer which can view, analyze and edit recorded data acquisition files.
- Converter which can convert different data acquisition and data files to a format supported by “Analyzer”.
The support for profiles in each application makes it easy to switch between different measurement types, analyze methods and conversions.
See videos for a demonstration of the product.
Chart recorder
This data acquisition program can measure and drive analog channels. A math script with multiple math functions can be applied to these channels during the measurement and displayed immediately. The measured and math channels can be stored in a data acquisition file. The math script enables advanced calculations during the measurement and can be adjusted by the user. The same math functions can be used to drive analog outputs in order to create an arbitrary waveform generator. The measured data can be displayed in Charts, XY plots and numeric indicators.
Main features:
- Scale calibrate channel: convert voltage to physical units
- Sample rate: number of sample per second of the inputs and outputs
- Math script: more than 90 math functions
- Macro script: automate measurements
- Save: automatic file naming/numbering data files
- Numeric: indicator window
- XY plots: XY plot window
- Annotations: add markers to the measurement file
- Profiles: save and load all settings including the math scripts
Analyzer
This program can view, analyze and edit data acquisition files created with “Chart recorder”. The same math functions as in “Chart recorder” can be used to analyze the data, these are also stored in a math script. The data displayed in graphs can be adjusted by zooming or panning. Two cursors can be displayed to measure the data at and/or between the cursors. Cursor scripts determine the values at the cursors and/or to export to a text file. Data between the two cursors can be displayed in a XY plot or be used for a curve fit. Macro scripts save a lot of time by analyzing multiple data acquisition files automatically.
Main features:
- Math script: more than 90 math functions
- Macro script: automate the analyzation of the data
- Cursors: options are On/Off/Step/Export/Scripts/Align
- Curve fit: adjust fit parameters, fit the data between the cursor and save the result to a file
- XY plots: display data between cursors in a XY plot window
- Profiles: save and load all settings including the math scripts
Converter
This program can convert multiple at once in order to open them with “Analyzer”. The file types *.csv are converted to *.tdms files. Also old versions of *.tdms files are converted to latest version *.tdms files.
Main features:
- Adjust delimiter
- Adjust decimal separator
- Search and replace strings
- Adjust document properties
- Profiles: save and load all settings
