Whether measuring vibration, sound, temperature, pressure, or virtually any input type, the DataShuttle Express accommodates all of these in a compact and flexible format, supporting data acquisition speeds of up to 100 kHz using the parallel port of a laptop or desktop PC.
The design incorporates surface mount components for robustness, a DSP chip for increased acquisition and analysis speed, screw terminal and BNC connectors for termination flexibility, and signal conditioning for thermocouple, accelerometer, RTD, strain gage devices, and many others. Modular packaging makes the DataShuttle Express ideal for large applications with low cost and reduced system size.
MULTIPLE SENSOR INTERFACES
Two slide-out termination drawers provide 16 channels for thermocouples, RTDs, current loops, strain gages, or accelerometer sensors. The DataShuttle Express also counts high speed pulses, measures frequency or can calculate time intervals. Most sensor types can be measured on a single terminal drawer which eliminates the need for multiple components and accessories.
SOFTWARE SELECTED AVERAGING
The DataShuttle Express samples at maximum rate and averages multiple samples to pass a single sample at the chosen sample rate. Works with single or multiple channels. Noise is as low as 2 microvolts at 390 Hz. Automatic, continuous self-calibration and self-testing provide accurate, stable readings. Factory calibration is guaranteed for two years.
EASY CONFIGURATION
There are no potentiometers to turn. Change ranges for each channel, alter sampling speed, and select noise filtering/averaging via software. The DataShuttle Express features built-in signal conditioning and power. No external batteries or additional conditioning modules are needed. Just terminate the sensor n the appropriate power source, connect the inputs to screw or BNC terminals and start collecting data. Slide drawers out to make sensor connection changes, calibrate strain gages, test hardware, select ground references or current measurement mode. No screws or panels to remove. Field wiring has never been easier!
EXPANDABLE
Connect multiple units to a single PC for 240 analog inputs, 30 analog outputs, 30 counter/timers and 180 digital I/Os. All supported software can address up to 15 DataShuttle Express units on any given PC. Each unit has a parallel port for connection to the PC or previous DataShuttle Express unit, and a pass-through port for connection to the following unit in the system. Each unit is powered by an AC Adapter, which is included.Each terminal drawer is individually calibrated, allowing Terminal Drawers to be interchangeable between slots or between DataShuttle Express units. Different terminal drawers can be used in a single DataShuttle Express unit for different applications.
DATADOCK OPTION
The DATADOCK optional rack system includes a built-in power supply for connection to 120/240 wall power and the ability to power up to four fully loaded DataShuttle Express units without external batteries or power supplies. Each DataShuttle Express unit slides in and locks securely, automatically connecting to the power and communication port. Each DATADOCK can connect directly to the PC itself or to the next DATADOCK in the system, for a total of 15 DataShuttle Express units.
TERMINAL DRAWERS
Each DataShuttle Express will contain up to two terminal drawers that will easily slide out for easy connection from all sensor wiring. The terminal drawers will accept up to 8 inputs each, for a total of 16 sensor inputs per DataShuttle Express. There are eight different terminal drawers to choose from.
