M-VIEWgraph
New tight graphics display |
| The new graphics display M-VIEWgraph will be available in autumn. Besides the alphanumeric M-VIEWfleet we then provide a further display for be used with the new logger generation.
The 7'' color TFT displays signals as curve or bargraph. The display settings for visualization of the measurement signals is made in the system configuration via IPEconf.
12 illuminated function buttons, 4 status / trigger LEDs and accessible USB ports provide extensive control and monitoring functions for test drives.

CANpressure
Revolution in automotive pressure measurement |
| The new pressure sensor, presented at the Testing Expo 2007 for the first time, meets the demands from automotive measurement applications.
The whole sensor including the signal amplifier unit and the CAN controller comes in a minimized cylinder tube (dimensions 77 mm x 24 mm (L x Ø)
and features a piezo-resistive pressure measurement cell. Sensor modules are offered for measuring absolute pressure as well as relative pressure
in the range from 200 mbar up to 1000 bar. Throughout the entire operating temperature range from –40 °C to +125 °C, the senors perform
linearized, temperature- compensated and calibrated measurement at an accuracy of significantly better than 0.5 % (FS).
The measurement data is transmitted via the CAN 2.0B bus, which is completely galvanically isolated, with a maximum sampling rate of 2 kHz.
One important advantage is the possibility of performing synchronized measurements within the system, because IPETRONIK's own CAN bus
synchronization can also be activated for CANpressure. For further processing and evaluation of the data, the devices have been prepared
with standard software interfaces to communicate with IPETRONIIK's configuration tool as well as with INCA (ETAS), DIAdem (NI) and other
commonly used software packages. |

M-LOG goes Multimedia
Video and Audio Sequences |
Now M-LOG also provides input and output of Audio and Video streams.
A webcam is connected to the M-LOG via USB interface. Data stream recording
is controlled by free selectable trigger functions. This means, besides digital
and analog signals, also calculated values can be used as a trigger event.
Data streams are numbered consecutively to enable clear assignment of the
multimedia data to measurement values with the analyzing tool. The audio
input may record the signal from a microphone in order to give comments
to a test drive.

M-LOG for LINUX |
The new data logger platform for self-contained measurement applications
offers maximum flexibility. Besides the modular expandability of the hardware,
M-LOG can be operated with the 32bit RTOS and the IPETRONIK software
application or alternatively under the open source OS LINUX with an user specific software. The LINUX
OS supports user programming for maximum performance and individual data
acquisition. As LINUX is distributed under GPL (General Public License) anyone
can get the source code for free.
For more information about applications and upgrades for M-LOG please
refer to our M-LOG Flyer (PDF 588 kB)
which you can download from here.

M-THERMO and µ-THERMO revision
Higher accuracy at lower power consumption |
All modules delivered with the hardware version 4.80 and the firmware
version 3.20 will have double accuracy compared to previous modules.
Also the drift within the whole ambient temperature range was reduced
to approx. 70 %. Besides this, the revised modules will only need 55 %
of the original power consumption. This means more flexibility for sytems
with long cable distances. The power consumption of any previous
module can be reduced by a service update, e.g. a regular IPETRONIK
calibration. In this case, no additional costs are charged for this update.

CANdia2
New Driver for DIAdem |
Now, CANdia2 the new driver for DIAdem is available. CANdia2 has been
developed based on the existing driver CANdia, which supports data acquisition
with IPETRONIK CAN modules. Configuration and measurement is directly
operated from the surface of DIAdem (requires DIAdem version 8.1 or higher).
The integrated hardware clock enables a real synchronized data acquisiton in
the Free Running Mode. The CANdia-Tools, which provides commands and
variables for programming of automatic measurement tasks, are optionally
available. This offers an access to IPETRONIK CAN modules via autosequences
of DIAdem. CANdia2 already supports the specific bridge functions of the new
module SIM-STG
and therefore offering a wide range of strain gage applications.
