The eDAQXR from HBM is the ideal solution for harsh environment testing, regardless of whether individuals are new customers seeking strong data acquisition, or current eDAQ customers wishing to upgrade the existing system.
The eDAQXR is suitable for testing several applications such as agriculture, recreational vehicles, mining, automotive, construction, and military.
The eDAQ is a layered system comprising a base processor that can support up to eight signal conditioning layers. The signals can include bridge, pulse, temperature, CAN, voltage, etc.
The next-generation processor for the eDAQ is the eDAQXR, which supports the same signal conditioning layers below. Eventually, HBM will also support new layers that are being designed. With the eDAQXR, users also have the ability to use the expansion modules, forming a robust centralized data acquisition system that can also have distributed components.
Furthermore, HBM has introduced new features such as smart power management, robust file format, and electronics with a conformal coating.
