Data Acquisition Systems are Ethernet-based.

Press Release Summary:



DaqBook/2000E and WaveBook/516E allow user to continuously acquire data to PC at rates up to 1 M readings/sec. Ethernet allows instrumentation to be located up to 300 ft from PC. With over 40 different signal conditioning and expansion options, units are suited for in-vehicle, laboratory, and factory floor applications. Software support includes LabVIEW® drivers, Visual Basic, C++, DASYLab, and Delphi. Out-of-the-box DaqView or WaveView are included.



Original Press Release:



New Ethernet-based DaqBook/2000E and WaveBook/516E from IOtech



IOtech's new Ethernet-based data acquisition products allow you to continuously acquire data to your PC at rates up to 1Mreadings/s. Ethernet offers several advantages over alternate PC-based architectures, for example:

o compared to plug-in PCI boards, Ethernet allows your instrumentation to work with notebook as well as desktop PCs - this means that you can use your instrumentation in portable and field applications
o compared to USB, USB2 and Firewire (IEEE 1394), Ethernet allows your instrumentation to be located up to 300 ft. from the PC (vs. 16 ft. with USB) - this allows your instrumentation to be located closer to where the test is occuring
o compared to parallel or EPP, Ethernet is faster and is a universal standard - no more hassles trying to make your parallel port go faster
o compared to IEEE 488, Ethernet is built into nearly every PC - no more expensive IEEE 488 interfaces and cables to add to your PC - and Ethernet is much faster than IEEE 488

IOtech's new Ethernet-based DaqBook/2000E and WaveBook/516E are ideally suited for applications ranging from in-vehicle to laboratory to factory floor. With over 40 different signal conditioning and expansion options, no other supplier can match the breadth of our offering for Ethernet-based data acquisition solutions.

Software support ranges from comprehensive LabVIEW® drivers to Visual Basic, C++, DASYLab, Delphi, and more. We also include Out-of-the-Box DaqView or WaveView software, so that you can be up and running within minutes vs. weeks or months with other solutions.

We'll be making first customer shipments of the new Ethernet-based DaqBook and WaveBook products in February 2003. To get a sneak preview of these products, visit: www.iotech.com/da/wbdbe.html?mc=hsl1. Call 1-888-714-3272 or e-mail: sales@iotech.com for further information.
