Digilent recently released updated versions of the WebDAQ 316, 504, and 904.
Meet the WebDAQ series of stand alone universal input data loggers, giving engineers the ability to monitor and control their systems remotely.These devices are internet-enabled dataloggers, capable of logging data from a variety of sensors like thermocouples, IEPE accelerometers, and many more. They are set up for remote access from the local network – whether from a computer, cell phone, or tablet.
By using the embedded WebDAQ web server, users can easily configure simple or sophisticated applications, log data, update digital outputs and/or send notifications based on alarm conditions, and view real-time data from any location and any device with a web browser.
When we released the new Digilent WebDAQs, we also did some additional testing and added several new WiFi adapters to the list of compatible WiFi adapters on our Reference site. The list of supported adapters ranges from those that are available for as little as five dollars, to those with complex multiple-antenna setups for operation at relatively long ranges – across the 20 tested and supported USB WiFi adapter models, you should be able to find something that fits your specific needs.
WiFi is particularly useful in applications where using a PC isn’t possible or necessary, or when Ethernet cables are cumbersome to route into or out of the datalogger’s location. If you need multiple loggers for a large number of sensor inputs, it’s much easier to connect an extra logger over WiFi than it is to route an additional Ethernet cable, especially when considering the additional hardware you might need like switches or extenders. If you want to move a logger to a different location, it’s a lot easier when you’re already set up with WiFi than if you also need to move all that cabling.
Introducing our new 3 updated version of WebDAQ.Our Devices are available to log multiple signal types including voltage (up to +/-60 V), thermocouples, IEPE-based sensors like accelerometers, current, RTDs, resistance, and bridge-based sensors. And housed in a heavy-duty chassis, the WebDAQ series is rugged enough for industrial applications.
The WebDAQ 316 provides 16 isolated thermocouple inputs, and four isolated digital bits that can be used as trigger inputs or alarm outputs.
Internet Enabled Thermocouple Data Logger
The WebDAQ 504 provides four simultaneous IEPE inputs for measuring sensors like accelerometers and microphones plus four isolated digital bits that can be used as trigger inputs or alarm outputs.
Internet Enabled Vibration-Acoustic Data Logger
The WebDAQ 904 performs high-accuracy measurements from up to four analog inputs. Users can measure several signals from sensors such as strain gauges, RTDs, thermocouples, and load cells. Four isolated digital bits can be used as trigger inputs or alarm outputs.
