Next Generation DAQ System
The SIRIUS data acquisition system is designed to be accurate, flexible, modular, expandable, and safe. The main development goal of the SIRIUS DAQs was to create a simple to use data acquisition device that prevents frequent errors during the measurement process.
SIRIUS offers virtually unlimited configuration possibilities. SIRIUS slices are available in 1 or 16 analog input channel configurations. The slices can be daisy-chained together to extend channel count. An array of different analog amplifiers are available for signal conditioning to give you the possibility to connect virtually any sensor type.
Technologies like DualCoreADC®, SuperCounters®, high galvanic isolation, and all the software innovations of the award-winning DewesoftX software make SIRIUS the most unique data acquisition solution on the market today.
Data Synchronization
SIRIUS hardware is capable of reading different signals like the voltage, strain, ICP/IEPE, charge, CAN, counter, encoder, and digital. Additionally with the included DewesoftX software, you can easily acquire and combine data from additional interfaces like GPS, Flexray, Ethernet, Serial, PCM telemetry, and many more.
Even though each data source can have different sampling rates, all your data will be perfectly synchronized down to microsecond accuracy. All these thanks to our timing and GPS synchronization technologies.
Synchronized video can also be added for free. Dewesoft includes powerful a video engine with support for simple DirectX web cameras, 3rd party thermal cameras, and high-speed video cameras that are fully synchronized to the sampled analog data.
Expand and Distribute
SIRIUS modular USB slices can be used as a stand-alone DAQ unit or stacked and daisy-chained together into a larger channel count system with simple click-mechanism.
A rugged USB hub (DS-HUB7) is available for connection of up to 7 SIRIUS slices. 1 USB cable is then needed for connection from the USB hub to the PC or SBOX computer.
EtherCAT SIRIUS devices (SIRIUSe) are made to be easily distributed. Only one cable is required for data, power, and synchronization between each SIRIUS device. Cable length can span up to 100 meters between measurement nodes. With this, the DAQ devices can be placed close to the sensors. This increases the signal quality, reduces signal noise, and lowers the cost of the sensor cabling.
The configuration for working with multiple instruments is as easy as working with a single unit.
