Overview of DAQWORX
DAQWORX allows users to assemble a data acquisition system using Yokogawa
recorders, data loggers, the temperature controllers, measuring instruments
without the need for programming. For adding functionality, DAQWORX offers an
integrated data acquisition software system, allowing customers to connect high
added-value software to their existing data acquisition systems to easily expand the
range of supported applications.
DAQWORX consists of three software component groups plus the DataBrowser
software program. Users can construct data acquisitions systems that are ideal for
their specific application by combining various software packages from the lineup
of each of the components.
1. Data Acquisition Component Group: Base Software
The “Base” software components require neither technical expertise nor
programming, enabling easy setup of various kinds of data acquisition
hardware, a rapid system setup time, and easy settings for analysis of data.
2. High Added-Value Component Group: Add-on Software
“Add” components can be added to Base components to construct a high
added-value data acquisition system. Add software includes applications
for customized and network-based remote monitoring, data acquisition
and saving by group, and monitoring of measured data for triggered data
acquisition.
3. Interface Component Group: Gate Software
“Gate” applications let you easily connect not only to data loggers, but also
power measuring instruments, industrial instrumentation, data via OPC
servers, and images from network cameras-all without programming.
4. DataBrowser Software
DataBrowser performs searches of data files saved by data acquisition units
such as DAQSTATION and data acquisition software programs such as
DAQLOGGER, DAQEXPLORER, and MXLOGGER, allowing you to display
and compare any found waveforms on a single screen.
The next section describes how common components from each group are typically
connected.
