EZ-DAQ™ INTRODUCTION
Operator’s Manual EZ-DAQ™ version 1.4 4 of 25
INTRODUCTION
1.0 Overview
The EZ-DAQ is a USB-Ethernet data acquisition system used in conjunction with
EZ-DAQ-Soft software. The software is formulated for communication with only the
EZ-DAQ data acquisition system for recording readings and storing them in user
defined directories.
EZ-DAQ has provisions for 8 sensor inputs. It gives the user the convenience of digital
indicators at the test stand with the ability of transferring test data to the EZ-DAQ-Soft
software via standard Ethernet protocol. The EZ-DAQ can enable 1-to-8 industry-
standard analog sensors with multiple input ranges. With multiple input channels and
ranges, the channels can have different input ranges simultaneously, For example,
Channel 1 can be configured for a 200 mV input signal while Channel 8 can be
configured for 4-20 mA signal. These readings will be displayed on the screen and
uploaded to the software.
All calibrations are held in the EZ-DAQ and are password protected.
Sensor Input Type: mV, V, mA.
Sensor Input range: 150 mV, 500 mV, 1 V, 5 V, 10 V, 20 V, 4-20 mA
EZ-DAQ is configured for either SI or US customary units. At present, the internal
software does NOT allow the user to switch between the two units.
The EZ-DAQ-Soft™ software is user friendly, displaying all sensors on the PC screen.
The screen allows information from up to six sensors to be saved on 6 individual files
with 6 different sampling rates to be setup before the test begins. Files are saved as
delimited text which may be easily imported into a spread sheet program, or can be
opened as a simple text file.
Communication from the EZ-DAQ to the customers PC is accomplished using standard
Ethernet protocol with a USB to Ethernet adaptor. Setup is easy because it uses a static
IP address.
