DEWESoft Sirius

SIRIUS is a modular USB data acquisition device with eight isolated input/output channels. Each base board of the SIRIUS can hold eight standard amplifiers (modules). The chasis has a 6-36V power supply and additional CAN interface on the back side. Multiple chasis can be combined and synced together to get a multi-channel solution.

• Programable analog outputs
• Smart real time counters synchronous
• Predefined modules or customized modules with any channel configuration any input connector!
• Synchronous CAN bus

This new technology solves the often faced problem that the signal is just much higher than expected and therefore clipped. Dewesoft DUAL CORE ADC technology always gives you the full possible measuring range, because the signal is measured with a high and a low gain at the same time! The user doesn’t need to care about the range anymore. The dynamic range is far beyond 100 dB!

There are 2 typical counter functions: the gated measurement or pulse width measurement. Many applications need both: the counter information and the analog data. Traditional systems do not offer the counter information synchronized to the A/D converters, because they get the counter information only either after the gate time or after the pulse time measured. In comparison to standard counting with software interpolation (value 1.5 in the example image), Dewesoft real-time counting uses an additional counter to get the exact time of the rising edge of the signal. This unique feature allows the calculation of the exact counter value at the A/D sample point (value 1.87 in the example).

In addition to the programmable voltage or current power supply for all sensors on the market, the SIRIUS MULTI module also offers the analog output function of the conditioned input signal, or even additional mathematic functions, often used for redundant data acquisition systems. These func- tions can also be used as a function generator to drive a shaker for the structural analysis function (FRF).

SIRIUS system can be build configured from standard 8 channel modules or select your own customized modules where you can choose from several different amplifiers. For more take a look at modules section.

You can combine and sync systems together to form a high channel count acquisition system. You can build clusters up to 1000 channels all with fully sample synchronized data acquisition system.
