Measurement Data Acquisition with 2 to 128 Channels

MSX16 is a flexible and expandable multi-channel data acquisition and signal processing unit for applications in research, development and testing.
Up to 8 MSX16 units can be directly connected to a PC by means of an interface card. The combination of a PC and MSX16 is the cost-effective alternative to signal acquisition with a recorder. A wide variety of software is available.
MSX16 features comfortable control of data acquisition via the PC, various online displays during the measurement and direct storage of measurement data on the hard disk or other storage media.
Flexibility is one of the most important advantages of the MSX16 concept. With a notebook and the MSX16 battery option, measurements and analyses can be performed independent of mains power.

ICP, microphone, charge amplifier and tacho input modules are available. User-specific input modules can also be supplied upon request. Microphone and ICP inputs are already prepared for the Smart Sensor Interface defined in IEEE P1451.4. The type and serial number of all input modules are automatically recognized: MSX16 is a "plug and play" system.

Applications:

Multi-channel data acquisition / machine monitoring
Programmable filters, signal conditioner
PC-based real-time analyzer (FFT, third-octave, octave)
Multi-channel sound power measurement
Dynamic balancing of rotors
Pass-by measurements
