Version EnvidasFW -Environmental Data Acquisition Software
ENVIDAS is an intelligent, multi function, high-performance data acquisition system. It is designed with affordability and versatility in mind.ENVIDAS is a state-of-the-art system that uses nonproprietary desktop or industrial PC computer components to run flexible, A wide variety of data acquisition cards may be installed.ENVIDAS software features pull-down windows based menus. Only basic knowledge of PC software operations is required for system operation.All hardware components are open stock items available from multiple suppliers.As the name implies, ENVIDAS is designed to help you automate your environmental data acquisition system projects and make your job easier. The system requires an initial setup.
The system requires an initial setup. Then it starts to run automatically, acquiring measurements, controlling processes and transferring data to the central computer room. The system has the capability of detecting errors and autonomously transmitting alarms to the central. Data values can be filtered and collected according to user-defined criteria. Local on screen display and printing is supported.
A typical ENVIDAS system contains the following in a single industrial 4U chassis:
- PC-based data acquisition
- AMD Athlon or P IV processor
- 2 - 16 serial ports
- One parallel printer port
- Standard PC keyboard
- SVGA video display
