Software

The system includes both set-up and data collection facilities. The software is menu driven and very easy to use, allowing access to individual channels to select offset and gain settings and to specify from which channels data are to be recorded. The sampling rate and anti-aliasing cut-off frequency to be used for the data recording are both software selectable by the user.

Four methods of data collection are provided:

• Summary data

• Campaign data

• On-line rainflow cycle counting

• Time at level

All four methods can be active at the same time.

With campaign data recordings up to 128 user defined conditions can be used to trigger 16 different campaigns. A condition is a logical combination of any three signals.

Each campaign can include up to ten minutes of data prior to the time the campaign is triggered. With this powerful facility data recordings of important conditions can be recorded whenever they should occur.
