Ethernet Interface for RoaDyn® System 2000 Allows Evaluation of Measurement Data from Wheel Force Transducers with SCADAS Durability Recorder from LMS
Measurement data from Kistler wheel force measuring systems can now also be recorded and evaluated with the SCADAS Durability Recorder, a mobile data acquisition system from LMS. LMS has developed the Wheel Force Transducer Module (WF12) for connecting Kistler's electronic RoaDyn System 2000. The System 2000 acquires and transfers data from Kistler's wheel force measuring systems and can be networked with other measuring systems.
With WFI2, LMS is the second renowned manufacturer of data acquisition systems to include in its range a synchronous digital Ethernet-based interface for Kistler's wheel force transducer systems. The interface is based on Kistler's proprietary UDP protocol for high-speed synchronous transmission of data to acquisition systems. Two RoaDyn systems, each with four wheel force transducers, can be connected to the WFI2. It then records all 8 relevant channels (3 forces, 3 torques, angle and angular velocity) of each transducer simultaneously.
RoaDyn System 2000 is controlled by the LMS SCADAS in slave mode at an acquisition rate of up to 1 280 Hz. Connection to the WFI2 module is made via robust LEMO circular connector. Ethernet interface Type 5621A6Q1 from Kistler is required for connecting WFI2 to RoaDyn System 2000.
