Original Press Release:



Datastick Connection Software Suite's New Versions Bring Color Data Acquisition, Advanced Features To Palm(TM) Handhelds



Versions 3.0 of Datastick Connection and Datastick Connection Plus, and Datastick Connection Pro software, now shipping with DAS-1245 peripherals

Santa Clara, CA, October 3, 2002 - First customer shipment of new versions 3.0 of Datastick Connection and Datastick Connection Plus software as well as Datastick's newest software product, Datastick Connection Pro v1.0, running on the DAS-1245 data acquisition peripheral for Palm® handhelds, was announced today by Datastick Systems, Inc., the leader in data acquisition hardware and software for the Palm OS.

Working through Bluetooth wireless technology or through Datastick® DAS-1245 hardware utilizing the Palm Universal Connector, data is acquired, recorded, and displayed from sensors and sensing devices measuring temperature, pressure, vibration, rates of acceleration, etc., on up to four analog channels.

Datastick Connection v3.0 records and displays these measurements in the form of easy-to-read color bar graphs, line graphs, and gauge graphics. New mathematical and scientific functions as well as revisions in the user interface make the system easier to use and more versatile. Datastick Connection Plus v3.0 adds an array of user-selectable display, automatic recording, and alarm features, with both audible and visual alerts.

Datastick Connection Pro v1.0 is best suited for high data-acquisition rates. Rather than display the input data in real time, Datastick Connection Pro achieves rates as high as 400 samples per second by operating in capture-and-review mode. The software interface permits users to move up and down as well as zoom in and out to see overall patterns and nuances of a captured analog signal. Color makes it easy to distinguish measurements from different channels.

The DAS-1245 peripheral snaps snugly onto all Palm handhelds using the Universal Connector and forms an extremely portable, well-integrated unit. It provides 4 input channels of 12-bit analog-to-digital conversion, one digital input channel, and a switchable power outlet for powering sensors. Accessories for pass-through power and multiple types of input expand the range of sensors and applications for the Datastick system.

"Employing different sensors available from hundreds of manufacturers, and leveraging the power and ease of use of Palm handhelds, users can view, record, and store measurements in the field for a fraction of the cost of equipment that is more specialized than may be actually needed," said Michael Scandling, Vice President of Marketing. "The Datastick system is ideal for environmental, industrial, and scientific use, as well as for students and hobbyists."
