- National Instruments announced a free software tool that reduces the
- complexity and time it takes to configure a PC-based data acquisition
- system and assures that system developers have the right hardware and
- software for their application. DAQ Designer configures data acquisition
- systems for PC/XT/AT/EISA and Micro Channel-based computers.
-
- DAQ Designer, an interactive, easy-to-use package with a graphical user
- interface, asks the user questions about system requirements such as the
- type and number of analog and digital signals, the type and number of data
- acquisition sensors, and signal conditioning needs. DAQ Designer analyzes
- the user's answers and recommends specific plug-in data acquisition
- boards, signal conditioning products, cable assemblies, and software
- packages that can be used to develop the desired data acquisition system.
-
- Once the user has identified all the system parameters and made product
- selections, DAQ Designer creates a summary of products. The user can save
- the system configuration to disk and/or print the configuration using
- spreadsheet or word processing software.
-
- DAQ Designer requires a computer running DOS 3.0 or higher with a minimum
- 80286 processor, at least 640K of RAM, and a VGA monitor.
