DAQ 32 Plus/DAQ 32 Plus Client Package
Introduction
DAQ 32 Plus
Data Acquisition Software 32 plus consists of so called ‘Launcher’ software and of seven
kinds of software which will open when the ‘launcher’ icons are clicked. Those icons will
automatically be displayed when you open the ‘Launcher’ software.
The seven kinds of software are:
1 Software Configurator
2 DARWIN Hardware Configurator
3 Logger
4 Historical Viewer
5 Tag Editor
6 Remote Monitor
7 File Utility
Launcher software
Launcher software serves to open the above seven kinds of software, to use the Project
function, and to protect software settings. When you install Data Acquisition Software 32
Plus, the Launcher software, (4) Historical Viewer software, (6) Remote Monitor software
and (7) File Utility software will automatically be saved in the Windows ‘Program’ file.
If you have made changes in any of the five kinds of software ((1) through (5) above)
and saved those, you can use Launcher software to open the software with changed
conditions next time you use it. Software with such changed conditions saved will be
referred to as a ‘Project.’ ‘Project function’ is the name used for saving and opening
Projects. The Project function is useful if you want to use Historical Viewer to observe
DA100/DC100/DR measurement data on only one PC with a number of people . It
enables you to observe waveforms without influencing someone else’s settings.
1 Software Configurator
Enables you to make operation settings to the software. There are four setting displays.
Communications
Used to select a directory to save logging data to, and to make several communication
settings between DA100/DC100/DR hardware and software.
Diagnostic
Used to make the necessary system configurations when using your DA100/DC100/DR
for the first time, or when changing modules attached to a unit.
Calibration
Used to calibrate DA100/DC100/DR.
Network
Used to set IP address, Subnet Mask, and the Default Gateway of DA100/DC100/DR.
2 DARWIN Hardware Configurator
Enables you to make settings to the DA100/DC100/DR. Settings differ for each device.
The hardware setting data can be saved to a PC.
Three kinds of data can serve as basis for further settings:
• Data earlier saved to a PC harddisk or to a floppydisk from the DA100/DC100/DR.
• Data settings as they remained when Hardware Configurator was last closed.
• Data settings of a directly PC-connected DA100/DC100/DR.
