Wi-Fi, Ethernet Data Acquisition

Oct. 1, 2008
Wi-Fi and Ethernet data acquisition (DAQ) devices are designed to allow developers to add wireless sensor capabilities to new and existing measurement applications without having to learn new software. 
The devices include built-in signal conditioning and direct sensor connectivity for electrical, physical, mechanical and acoustic signals. Using the IEEE 802.11 standard for wireless networks, the DAQ devices stream data on each channel at more than 50kS/s with 24 bits of resolution. The Wi-Fi DAQ devices deliver measurement data to a host PC instantaneously for real-time viewing and in-line analysis of dynamic sensor signals. In addition, built-in advanced network authentication methods and 128-bit AES encryption, meet the standards defined for use of wireless networks in U.S. government facilities by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
