Heim Data INTRODUCES D5000 SERIES WITH MODULAR SIGNAL INTERFACING
Permits Flexible Data Acquisition in Non-Benign Environments
Heim Data, Inc., a leading supplier of data acquisition equipment, introduces the new D5000 Series. The D5000 Series with modular signal interfacing, provides highly flexible configuration solutions that can easily adapt to changing requirements in airborne and mobile applications. Designed to be extremely compact, lightweight, and rugged, the economical single-box D5000 Series systems are utilized for PCM telemetry, avionics bus and sensor data acquisition in non-benign environments.
With up to 256 Mbit/s total system data rate, these recording/reproducing systems employ media contained in interchangeable cartridges, allowing the user complete freedom of choice between tape, rugged disk and solid state drives at any time during the life of the equipment. The D5000 media cartridges feature a standard SCSI data interface with optional FireWire and Gigabit Ethernet download interfaces. These provide high-speed output to other Heim reproducer systems and ensure efficient download and distribution of acquired data direct from the recorded media.
The D5000 mainframe has three signal module slots that can accommodate any combination of the D Series signal interface modules, including Analog, MIL 1553, PCM, ARINC429, Ethernet, Voice, Serial, Parallel, Video and others. The D5000 range is enhanced with new high channel capacity signal modules that can be configured with up to 75 channels in a single mainframe. Automatic built in test and monitoring facilities ensure that all interfaces are correctly calibrated and operating normally with a minimum of operator intervention.
Complete with an integral 10 MHz reference clock and IRIG time code reader/generator, the D5000 Series can also synchronize to external IRIG and GPS time sources. Fully synchronized channel sampling and packet recording functions ensure high resolution, high accuracy time tagging and consistent channel-to-channel phase relationships for any interface configuration. These systems are compatible with both Heim data format and the IRIG106 Chapter 10 standard. The user has permanent access to configuration and control functions through front panel controls, backed up by remote control available through integral computer and discrete contact interfaces.
The D5000 Series will provide a digital recording replacement for both legacy tape based video and avionics data acquisition systems, combining both functions into an economical single box solution with greatly enhanced management and correlation of the data during analysis.
