ADwin systems are used by engineers and scientists for data acquisition, automation and Real-Time control applications. ADwin always provides a very accurate, precise and deterministic timing, with a high
speed process execution.

ADwin-Gold-III is the newest member of the ADwin Real-Time systems family. It is compact and is designed for OEM applications to be used inside machines and devices. Like all ADwin systems it executes a fast, robust and flexible Real-Time code. It provides a powerful performance in a robust metal enclosure at a reasonable price.

ADwin-Gold III offers an extensive range of digital and analog interfaces. It can therefore be used in many areas. The XILINX ZYNQ with 1 GHz clock rate ensures top values in computing power and system response time.

Options provide additional functions as counters, encoder interfaces, serial, CAN bus and SSI interfaces. The system can be used in laboratories, on a DIN-rail in industrial machines, or in mobile and in-vehicle applications.

In conjunction with a notebook and a power supply of 10–35 V, it is not only easy to use for measurements in motor vehicles, but also in industrial environments.

ADwin-Gold III allows immediate and synchronous acquisition and output at the inputs and outputs, even for several Gold III devices in parallel.

Synchronous Actions, Scalable Performance

ADwin-Gold III allows immediate and synchronous acquisition and output at the inputs and outputs, even for several Gold III devices in parallel.

You want highly synchronized actions? Here you are: Send a Sync signal to the differential Sync inputs of one, two or more Gold III devices and see them all react simultaneously. You can even define a master device which triggers all devices in a specific time pattern.

You also benefit from the multiplied ADwin performance, which scales up with each additional devices.

With a simple software instruction, you define the actions of each device which are triggered at the same time: read an analog input, copy counter values, output digital signal patterns and some more.

With its Expert Vibro EV-4 Data Acquisition System device, Delphin has successfully combined the processing of complex functions with high levels of flexibility in a user-friendly system. Vibration measurement systems can now be used where they had previously been economically infeasible. The device is equipped with a high-powered, dual-core FPGA processor based on ARM technology giving users ample reserves of processing power.

Users are able to switch between voltage measurement, IEPE, or shaft vibration sensors. Integrated comparators and digital inputs allow flexible triggering. Measurement data is monitored “on the fly” with digital outputs being switched within msecs in the event of limit value violations.

Vibrations deliver information on the condition of bearings, shafts, and machinery and generally have a major effect on levels of quality in production processes. They should, therefore, be continuously acquired, intelligently evaluated, and condensed into meaningful data for monitoring. In critical situations, machinery needs to be shut down within milliseconds.

The Delphin Expert Vibro EV-4 combines the requirements and functioning of modern vibration measurement systems into a highly compact device. Other systems usually require multiple pieces of equipments. Vibration measurement is made easy with Expert Vibro. System installation and familiarization are short so that users can quickly start processing their data.

Expert Vibro provides users with analysis and monitoring functions, intelligent signal processing, an independent data storage capability, and versatile Fieldbus connections – all in a single device. Right from the outset, users save costs and avoid troublesome interface problems.

Of special benefit is the modular system for signal processing with a range of preprocessing functions. Filters, such as high, low, or bandpass with rectifiers, integrators, differentiators or decimators can be selected to make up a preprocessing sequence. Multiple preprocessing sequences are able to run in parallel in order to evaluate an input signal. This gives users an especially high level of flexibility.

Non-periodic signals, such as in fault diagnostics, can be analyzed precisely using Expert Vibro. In continuous sampling mode, even the smallest of irregularities are recorded. Expert Vibro measures, monitors, and records fully independently. Expert Vibro is equipped with its own internal data storage capability making it especially reliable and secure.
