Kistler Introduces DynoWare USB-Based Data Acquisition and Analysis Software for Stationary and Rotary Force Measurement Systems

November 30, 2011, Novi, Michigan, USA – Kistler (www.kistler.com), a worldwide supplier of precision sensors, systems and instrumentation for the dynamic measurement of pressure, force, torque and acceleration, has introduced the USB-based Type 2825A DynoWare universal data acquisition and analysis software, designed for direct compatibility with Kistler stationary and rotary measuring systems, including single- and multi-component dynamometers and other force sensors.

The simple operation of Kistler Type 2825A DynoWare allows for full configuration and control of up to 28 force measurement channels via USB, RS-232C or IEEE-488. For signal analysis, DynoWare offers real-time visualization of measured curves, along with evaluation and calculation functions.  The software allows for individual measurement channel documentation, along with measured data storage. Signal evaluation capabilities also further allow for compensation of undesirable signal drift due, for example, to undue temperature influence.

DynoWare supports several A/D cards (PCI/PCMCIA) as well as the USB 2.0 function of the Kistler Type 5697A force charge amplifier.  It is ideal for the acquisition and evaluation of cutting forces, reaction forces, crash impacts, or other types of physical force measurands.

For additional details and specifications, please contact Kistler North America toll-free (in the US & Canada) at 1-888-KISTLER, via email at sales.us@kistler.com or visit www.kistler.com.

Want early design analysis without simulation?

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
