Develop a Low Cost Data Acquisition System

Develop a low cost data acquisition system using a D6200 seven channel 4-20mA analog input module and the DAQFactory Express HMI SCADA software. DAQFactory Express is a free HMI SCADA software program that collects data from up to eight channels and displays two HMI screens.  DAQFactory Express also includes data logging to file with date and time stamps using the MS-Excel compatible ASCII comma-delimited data format.

The DGH D6000 series modules are a complete family of data acquisition modules for use in process control systems. These modules can measure process signals such as thermocouples, 4-20mA loops, discrete contact closures, and they can generate DC voltage or current signals for controlling annunciators or valves.

More complex systems can be created or expanded using multiple D6000 series modules and an enhanced version of the DAQFactory software. Click here for more information.

Measure and Linearize a Non-Linear Sensor Output

The D2000 series of intelligent analog-to-computer interfaces are designed
to solve many difficult interfacing problems that cannot be performed with
existing standard interfaces. The D2000 series may be programmed to
create custom transfer functions to interface to non-standard sensors or to
scale the outputs to any engineering units desired.


 

The D2000 series is an enhancement of the D1000 series of standard
interfaces. The D2000 series is similar to the D1000 series in every respect
except that the D2000 interfaces allow custom input-to-output transfer
functions. As shipped from the factory, the D2000 modules operate in the
same manner as their D1000 counterparts. Read more...
