Dewesoft SIRIUS® Modular | Sistem Akuisisi Data

Gambaran Umum

SIRIUS® modular is the world’s most versatile and powerful data acquisition system. SIRIUS® provides high-end signal conditioning amplifiers for almost any signal and sensor. SIRIUS data acquisition systems are truly the latest in DAQ technology and offer high dynamic range (160 dB), galvanic isolation, etc. They are available in USB or EtherCAT® configurations.

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.

Intuitive and easy to use

Using Dewesoft data acquisition systems does not require any complex configuration setups or programming knowledge. We also kept this in mind when designing SIRIUS® XHS.

Plug-and-play technology with smart sensors and advanced TEDS is supported by default. This makes performing measurements with the Dewesoft DAQ systems easier than riding a bike. You will be ready to measure in no time.

Getting precise and graphically rich results is easier than ever. The drag-and-drop user interface of bundled DewesoftX software will allow you to define your measurement screens and results in no time. A rich mathematics library for signal processing is also available one click away. Just connect the right widget with your input channel and Voila! Works like magic.

DualCoreADC® signal conditioning technology

The DualCoreADC®technology solves often-faced problems with signal measurement:

• signal input overload,

• noise, and

• artificial frequencies in the signal caused by aliasing.

The input signal can be higher than expected by the signal conditioner (out-of-range) and therefore clipped by the ADC. This will result in an incorrect measurement and will require you to repeat the test all over again.

DualCoreADC technology prevents these problems. Each channel amplifier has two A/D converters that measure the high and the low gain of the input signal in parallel. This results in the full possible measuring range of the sensor and prevents the signal from being clipped.

With DualCoreADC technology,SIRIUS data acquisition systems achieve more than 130 dB signal-to-noise ratioand more than 160 dB in dynamic range. This is 20x better than 24-bit DAQ systems and 20x less noise.

Channel-to-channel galvanic isolation

SIRIUS DAQ devices offer high galvanic channel-to-channel and channel-to-ground isolation (±1000 V).The DAQ systems even offer isolated sensor excitation.

With such isolation, we have no problem measuring high voltage potentials and no problem with common-mode voltages. We are also safe with measurements like vibrations, temperatures, or any other measurement where non-isolated sensors are placed next to the high voltage potential against the DAQ system ground.In such cases, a non-isolated DAQ system would burn or at least give faulty wrong results. With SIRIUS it is just one thing less to worry about.

Digital isolation has another big advantage – preserving the frequency bandwidth of the amplifiers. SIRIUS provides “worry-free” measurements, less noise, no ground loops, and the best possible signal quality.

For less demanding measurement and lower-cost applications, SIRIUS DAQs are also available in a differential version where only power supply isolation is offered.

SuperCounters®: precise speed and angle measurement with counter and encoder sensors

Dewesoft data acquisition systems utilize a patented and registered trademark technology calledSuperCounter®.

Counter inputs can measure the RPM and angle of rotating machines. In comparison to standard counters, which only output integer numbers one sample later (e.g. 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4), the Dewesoft SuperCounter inputs are able to extract accurate values like 1.37, 1.87, 2.37, etc. fully synchronized for time and amplitude.

This is done by measuring the exact time of the rising edge of the signal with an additional counter. Our SuperCounter inputs work on a 102.4 MHz time base, independent of the current analog sampling rate.

Counter inputs are fully synchronized with analog, CAN bus, and other data sources to enable easy applications like balancing, order tracking, and torsional vibrations.

Input Amplifiers for Every Sensor

SIRIUS offers a range of different signal amplifiers for almost every signal type and connection of practically any type of sensor. SIRIUS slices are available in two versions:

• Galvanically isolated versionwith 1000V galvanic channel-to-channel and channel-to-ground isolation.

• Differential version with differential inputs and isolated power supply.

Available signal amplifiers

SIRIUS® data acquisition systems offer different signal conditioning amplifiers grouped into three main amplifier families.

IEPE Sensor Check

SIRIUS ACC and Charge signal amplifiers forIEPE sensors are equipped with a LED ring around the input connector for visual feedback that tells if the sensors are connected correctly. When an IEPE sensor is connected, the amplifier will constantly check the current flow to the sensor and will turn the LED bright green or bright red, depending on, if the sensor’s impedance is okay.

With this LED indicator you have immediate visual feedback if all your IEPE sensors such as accelerometers or microphones are working and are wired correctly. This is just another small but very useful detail that makes your life as a test engineer a little bit easier.

CAN and CAN FD interface

SIRIUS® signal conditioning slices are equipped with one CAN/CAN FD port for analyzing CAN bus data.Additionally, we provide a CAN-only SIRIUS® module that fits 9 CAN ports into one SIRIUS® module.

CAN interface supports transmitting and receiving CAN 2.0b data at a full speed of 1 Mbit/s.CAN FD interface supports high-speed CAN interface with data rates up to 8 Mbps.They are also compatible and allow decoding of J1939,J1587, and OBD II on CAN data as well.

All CAN channels are isolated for worry-free CAN acquisition in noisy environments and for maximum signal quality.

Analog Output

SIRIUS data acquisition systems can optionally be configured with 8 analog output channels. Analog out connectors are installed on the device’s backplane with 8 BNC connectors.

Analog outputs can have different modes of operation. For example, you can run external shakers with a built-in multi-function generator, or just use it as a file replay. Scroll down to see all possible modes of operation.

Analog Output Modes

The analog outputs on SIRIUS can be configured and used with one of the following modes of operation.

Precise Synchronization of Input Signals and Data Sources

SIRIUS DAQ hardware is capable of recording different signals like the voltage, current, strain, IEPE/ICP®, charge, digital, counter, encoder, and others. With the included DewesoftX software,you can also record data from digital interfaces like Video, GPS/GNSS, Flexray, Ethernet, Serial, XCP/CCP, PCM telemetry, and many others.

Even though each data source can have different sampling rates, all your data will be perfectly synchronized in a single data file. You will be able to see events from all channels perfectly aligned.

Synchronized videocan also be added for no additional cost. 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 Channel Count and Distribute Devices

If one SIRIUS slice does not provide enough input channels, you can easily extend and daisy chain multiple slices to form large channel-count systems. Slices can be daisy-chained for power and synchronization. A rugged USB hub (DS-HUB7) is available for the 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.

Simple and smart click-mechanism on the SIRIUS chassis allows you to bind and connect multiple slices together.

Additionally, SIRIUS modular devices with an EtherCAT interface (SIRIUSe)can be easily distributed.Only one cable is required to connect the devices for data, power, and synchronization between each other. Cable length can span up to 100 meters between the 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.

Fanless, Dustproof, and IP67 Waterproof Protection

SIRIUS modular data acquisition systems are also available in a more rugged fanless chassis enclosure(SIRIUSf). SIRIUS fanless devices are designed without any cooling fans and are much more suited for measurements in heavy industrial and dusty environments.All SIRIUS fanless devices are IP50 rated and completely dust-protected.

Looking for an even more rugged and waterproof version? We have you covered! An even more rugged version is available called SIRIUS Waterproof. SIRIUSw devices offer IP67 protection and are fully waterproof, dustproof, and 100G shock protection.

Available in Many Chassis Enclosures

Next to modular SIRIUS devices, the SIRIUS data acquisition technology is also available in different chassis enclosures. These will transform SIRIUS into a high-channel rack-mountable DAQ system or portable DAQ system with a built-in display, keyboard, and batteries or high-channel-count data acquisition systems.
