High Speed Data Acquisition System
The DAS1700 combines fast-sampling rates, a large hard drive, and a 15.6” touch screen display. With 3 slots for measurement boards, the DAS1700 can be configured for your specific application. Choose any combination of 4 measurement boards for measuring voltage, current, temperature, and strain.
For capturing high speed or transient signals, the DAS1700 can simultaneously acquire and record 36 channels at 1 MSa/s, or 6 channels to the hard drive. It also comes with a 500 GB solid state hard drive for storing large amounts of data. The secondary file function allows you to record low and high-speed data in separate files to reduce file sizes.
A variety of options are available to extend the functionality of the DAS1700 including battery operation, IRIG and GPS synchronization, CAN and LIN inputs, and an extension unit which provides 3 additional measurement board slots.
The intuitive user interface makes setup easy, and measurement results can be viewed graphically and numerically. Built-in analysis tools include a mathematical function editor and dedicated power analysis mode for analyzing single and 3-phase electrical networks.
Connect to the DAS1700 remotely via the built-in LAN interface or optional USB WiFi. Software utilities are provided for remote control, file transfer, and viewing live data on a PC.
