FALCON™
Models TA220-1000 Series
DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEMS
Stand-alone & with Recorder
Portable, 1 to 16 Channels
The SOLTEC Model TA220-1000 series are data acquisition systems with enhanced functions
for color data display, acquisition, and analysis. Three mainframe models, TA220-1100,
TA220-1200, and TA220-1300 are available. The TA220-1100 features data monitoring and
acquisition. The TA220-1200/1300 units feature a waveform printing chart recorder feature
in addition to the functions of the TA220-1100. All mainframes accept a wide selection of
plug-in signal conditioning amplifiers, a wealth of calculation and analysis functions,
and three types of communication interfaces to make each TA220-1000 series unit a versatile,
portable data acquisition system, memory recorder, data logger, transient recorder,
and real-time recorder, all-in-one.
FEATURES
RECORD INPUT SIGNALS IN REAL TIME
Selectable Functions
•
FFT Analysis, Waveform Judgement, and
lnterfaces(GP-IB and SCSI) are available options.
Multi-channel Support
•
Up to 16-Channels of measurement are possible
in this compact unit using dual channel plug-in
amplifier modules.
Wide Variety of Input Signal Conditioners
•
12 & 16 bit high-resolution plug-in signal input amps
support voltage, temperature, vibration, strain and
rotation encoder pulse measurements at sampling
speeds up to 1MS/s (1µs).
Color LCD Display
•
A 10.4 inch TFT color LCD display with a touch
sensitive panel offers easier operation.
Long Term Data Storage
•
Long term data acquisition (storage) is possible
at a sampling speed of 200µs by storing data on a
Magneto Optical (MO) hard drive with removeable
media (up to 640 MBytes) or on flash memory cards.
Since the recorded data is in a digital format
(binary or CSV), data analysis after recording and
long term data management, which were impossible
with chart data, can be easily performed.
Modem and Fax Transmission Functions
•
Increase Measurement Efficiency
Long distance measuring using a telephone line
is possible by connecting to a modem. Automatic
data transmission to a fax machine during data
acquisition is also possible.
(REAL TIME RECORDING)
Real Time Signals can be monitored on the screen
while storing on MO Drive, Memory Card or Disk.
Storage rates range from 200µs to 100s. Loop storage
mode ensures that latest data is always saved.
TA220-1200/1300 can print on a chart at speeds up to
25/200mm/s. Choose WAVEFORM, XY,
or ALPHANUMERIC Datalogger print format.
The monitored waveform is displayed in the same
format as data being printed.
SIMULTANEOUS MEASUREMENT OF LONG
TERM TREND & TRANSIENT PHENOMENA
(TRANSIENT RECORDING)
Transient recording combines Real Time and Memory
recording. While Recording in Real Time, 'Snapshots'
of High-Speed transients are stored into memory. After
Recording session, both the long term and higher
resolution 'snapshot' data are available.
RECORD HIGH SPEED PHENOMENA
TO MEMORY (MEMORY RECORDING)
High Speed signals can be recorded into built in
memory (up to 2Mdata/ch) at sample rates of
1µs to 1s. Memory can be divided into blocks
for more verstility. Recorded data is displayed
on screen and can be automatically or manually
stored, printed on chart (TA220-1200/1300 only),
transmitted to a fax machine, or sent via modem
to a computer.
The monitored waveform is displayed in the same
formal as the recorded data.
APPLICATION SOFTWARE (Option)
View files, manipulate data, communications, set-up,
control, analyze files, export to spreadsheets,
network/ethernet interface, etc.
PRINT EXAMPLE

PLUG-IN SIGNAL INPUT AMPLIFIER
ACCORDING TO MEASUREMENT NEEDS
Two expansion functions are provided as option:
FFT (Option)
•
The following eight functions are supported:
Linear spectrum, power spectrum, RMS spectrum,
power spectrum density, octave analysis, transfer
function, cross power spectrum, and coherence function.
Waveform Judgement (Option)
•
Waveform judgment option compares incoming
waveforms to waveforms stored in memory. If the
incoming waveform is out of tolerance, a trigger is
activated.
ARITHMETIC OPERATION (Standard)
Provides arithmetic operations on data located in
specified areas of memory. The results of
operations are displayed in the screen and stored
in the form of a waveform or a file.
Operations Include: Four (4) basic arithmetic
operations, maximum, minimum, P-P value,
average area, RMS, standard deviation, rise time,
fall time, absolute value, differential, integral,
linear/quadratic differential, single/double integral,
square root, exponent, common logarithm,
moving average, and trigonometric functions
(sine, cos, tan, asin, acos, and atan).
