-
EtherCAT expansion port:for expanding input channels with any of our EtherCAT-based data acquisition systems such as KRYPTON, IOLITE, or SIRIUSe.
-
HDMI video:for connecting an external display.
-
GPS/GNSS receiver (optional):10 Hz or 100 Hz GNSS receiver with an option to connect external GPS display or to an RTK base station.
SIRIUS® signal conditioning technology
Data acquisition systems are built around our world-class SIRIUS® signal conditioning technology and offer the same top-performing technologies:
-
DualCoreADC® technology: high-dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
-
SuperCounter® technology: high-speed synchronized angle and speed measurement.
-
Galvanic isolation: channel-to-channel and channel-to-ground isolation for best signal quality and safety.
Note: galvanic isolation does not apply to SIRIUS mini and MINITAURs instruments.
Available signal amplifiers
SIRIUS® data acquisition systems offer different signal conditioning amplifiers grouped into three main amplifier families.
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.

External calibration reference
SIRIUS® R8 systems feature optional calibration reference input. External calibration reference can be connected via a single BNC connector on the rear side of the system. It can be switched in the software to all input channels at once to check the amplifier performance and accuracy.
Please note: check yourlocal sales officefor information on which SIRIUS® amplifiers have the support for external cal reference.
