For those needing seriously high power abilities to analyse acquired data on a PC as well as control the data acquisition process itself, DASYLab has for some time been our favourite software. Now with Version 5, it's undoubtedly better than ever. The new release brings together the 16 bit and 32 bit versions of DASYLab into a single release for Windows 95/98, Windows NT and Windows 3.x. There are more than 100 improvements and new features.
We particularly like the ability to save worksheets in ASCII format, enabling a data acquisition application to be easily and completely documented. This is extremely important for QA, QC and the ISO 9000 qualification process.
A completely new option is the DASYLab set value and set range function. Sophisticated statistical algorithms allow users to generate norm or setpoint curves from multiple measurements, and a special trigger module allows checking whether newly acquired data is within a specified tolerance range of the set value.
The Scope module now contains a fast chart recorder function which allows continuous monitoring of data in a chart recorder at speeds up to 150 kHz. The VITool for generating documents and MMIs has been completely enhanced. Not only is it faster, but you can use all the zooming and panning functions in the various visualization modules. New graphics features make it easier than ever to create a professional, real-time application display and custom reports. And ten new modules increase the flexibility and power of DASYLab, including IEEE 488 to send a stream of data to a GPIB device, and a new Sample Trigger module that allows event timing and duration to be used as a trigger condition. We think you'll be very impressed.
