VibRecorder
Data Acquisition and Analysis System

VibRecorder is m+p international’s online reduction system for sine, random and shock data. The throughput function records all channels continuously on the embedded VXI disk – irrespective of the channel count and the frequency range utilized. Several mainframes can be connected via Ethernet, FireWire or MXI interfaces enabling data acquisition and time domain recording up to and beyond 256 channels. By adding m+p international’s SO Analyzer software modules, VibRecorder will also provide online and parallel throughput processing for acoustic data.

With VibRecorder for real-time throughput data capture and VibControl shaker control running in parallel in one system, the laboratories reduce their test costs and operator training significantly.

Key Features

• Online sine/random/shock data reduction
• Continuous data recording on embedded VXI disk,
  2 x 73 Gbyte throughput disks guaranteeing gap-free recording, 30 MB/s data rate
• Support of up to 160 input channels per VXI mainframe, max. sample rate per channel:
  102.4 kHz, max. frequency bandwidth: 40 kHz
• File system on local disk, storage of several files without stopping the measurement campaign
• Replay of time data from embedded disk with online analysis
• Support of Microsoft Windows XP operating system
• Multi-mainframe support for high-channel counts (up to and beyond 256 channels)
• Comprehenive post-test tools including file format conversion and data export
• Common user interface with VibControl vibration control system
• Common data format with VibControl for transparent test reporting
• Octave analysis using m+p internationals's SO Analyzer software modules

Applications

• Witnessing an ongoing vibration test
• Add-on to the vibration control system to overcome the lack of channels
• Use as transient recorder for ranges up to 196 kHz (primarily in pyroshock environments)
