Visual Data Recorder

AQ-VU

Synchronous 4 channels
video and data recording

The video and analog data is easy to verify
using the built-in LCD monitor. Visual Data
Recorder AQ-VU is a unification of a visual
and data measurement.

AQ-VU is a visual data recorder with 4 channels video and analog

signals that can be synchronously recorded and played back. Video

and data can be verified or played-back without a PC using a LCD

monitor and stand-alone AQ-VU. AQ-VU is a remarkable data

recorder that can visually confirm a physical event without

connecting to a PC.

32 channels synchronized recording

By connecting with LX-100 series data recorder,

as much as 32 channels of data can be

synchronously recorded.

of recorded video

and analog data

AQ-VU is capable of synchronously recording up to 4 channels of video camera data and up to 4 channels of analog data. The

recorded video and analog data are stored in the HDD pack and they can be synchronously played back. The video is recorded as

fast as 60 frames per second per channel in Motion-JPEG for smooth high resolution. The number of recording channels in both

video and analog can be freely selected based on application needs. The event outbreak time can be easily managed. The accessory

viewer software allows play-back of the recorded video and analog data synchronously on PC.

It can record a video with various synchronized measurement data using LX-100 series.

Stand-alone unit (not requiring PC)

It can record video and analog data without PC connection.
Small footprint allows use in confined spaces.

Built-in LCD display

The recording and the recorded data can be easily monitored at the recording site.

example

Perfectly synchronized

Perfectly synchronized between the video and data even after the extended
recording. Accumulation delay time is zero *
( Video and analog signals are recorded as a set frame, preventing accumulation
delay time. )

* Sync accuracy +/- frame (in one video channel mode)

Analog trigger function

Level trigger allows recording before and after the event. The HDD space is used
efficiently and results in quick and easy search operation.

OPTION OPTION

32ch synchronous recording

Using LX-100 series data recorder, it can synchronously record up to 32 channels
of data. By synchronizing AQ-VU with LX-100 series data recorder, a variety of
data measurements are possible.

Network Monitoring

Possible to control and monitor via Ethernet

Using AQ-Net which is provided as an option, video
and analog signals can be monitored via Ethernet.
AQ-VU can be fully controlled via network.
Also downloading data files is possible.
Recoding and downloading are independent, so
downloading data has no effect on recording.

* Downloading data file takes time longer than recording time.
* Video update timing is adjusted automatically.
