Control Unit type SyCore

The applications:

- System control - Waveform generator - Arbitrary waveforms - Measurement unit -

A MULTI-FUNCTION INSTRUMENT FOR SIGNAL ANALYSIS, SIGNAL GENERATION AND SYSTEM CONTROL SyCore (system core) is an all-round control and measurement device. Similarly to a computer it is able to take over several functions. SyCore means HiTech: SyCore is a completely new device concept that makes available a standardised hardware set, together with software modules covering a wide range of applications. The compact unit features a 32-bit micro-processor for fast and flexible operation and a high degree of modularity. SyCore and multi-functionality: SyCore can be used as a programmable arbitrary waveform generator as well as a multi-channel measurement acquisition system with digital oscilloscope functionality. IEEE 488.2 and RS 232 interface are both included. SyCore and Windows: A clearly arranged, and simple to operate Windows software package permits simple access to the SyCore analysis and synthesis functions. SyCore and the pleasure to measure: As many as six analogue measuring channels can acquire voltage, current, frequency, power, power factor or harmonic distortion in either real time or multiplex operation. Optionally a digital I/0 card, with a further 16 inputs and 16 outputs, allows a full check of the EUT as well acquisition of measurement values. The result: complete measurement documentation !
