STEP Data Acquisition Modules

The Basic Data Acquisition Module permits the fully integrated collection of data sets into STEP directly from a variety of instrumentation. Measurement control is enhanced by support of temperature controllers and the passive monitoring of thermocouples.

Additional data acquisition modules utilize the STEP Compound file to automate collection of a set of data sets as a function of measurement parameters such as time, etc. The additional optional data acquisition modules require the Basic Data Acquisition Module.

Module

Description

Basic Data Acquisition

Includes drivers for electric field, electric displacement, stress, and strain generation and measurement instruments. Also includes temperature control and measurement instruments. Module can collect a single data set. Follow this link for a list of instruments supported by the Basic Data Acquisition Module.

Time

Collects a set of data sets as a function of time. Automatically analyses and adds data sets to a compound file for studies of the effect of ageing and time on model parameters.
