LAN-XI LIGHT DAQ MODULES

LAN-XI Light is an independent data acquisition module for measurement scenarios and applications with up to four channels. The LAN-XI Light can be used in conjunction with a battery module to create a portable remote recorder.

USES

As a data acquisition solution for NVH Simulator, Sonoscout™and BK Connect®, LAN-XI Light provides real-time analysis for:

  • General sound and vibration measurements
  • NVH (noise, vibration and harshness) recording and analysis
  • Monitoring vehicle parameters
  • Sound quality metrics (loudness, sharpness, articulation index)

FEATURES

  • DC to 25.6 kHz input range (sampling rate 65.5 kHz)
  • Built-in constant current line drive (CCLD) to power sensors
  • LAN interface
  • LED indicators on each channel (conditioning, cable break)
  • Power: Mains, DC, battery or PoE (IEEE 802.3af)
  • Robust casing
  • Generator (Type 3677 only):
    • – One output channel with full generator functionality from 0 to 25.6 kHz
    • Can be set up using graphical tools of BK Connect. Control excitation type, frequency parameters, output level, level ramp up/down times, and burst excitation
    • Waveforms determined by software. BK Connect supports sine (fixed frequency), stepped sine, continuous and burst random, periodic and pseudo-random, white noise and user-defined waveforms

Type 3676

4-CHANNEL INPUT DAQ MODULE

Part of the LAN-XI family, LAN-XI Light is a rugged standalone, four-channel data acquisition module that supports CCLD transducers – perfect for use in the lab or field

LAN-XI Light is a tough data acquisition module that captures time data from up to four channels, and is ideally suited for use with BK Connect Applets, specific tools for specific tasks. This module can be used together with a battery module to create a portable, remote recorder.

USE SCENARIOS

  • Any general sound and vibration recording and analysis, such as troubleshooting, where a single, four-channel module meets channel-count needs 
  • Production quality testing of consumer goods, such as quick pass/fail measurements according to a tolerance curve
  • Noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) recording under demanding conditions such as on a motorcycle on a vehicle test track
  • Battery-operated recording in the field, such as traffic noise

CHARACTERISTICS

LAN-XI Light’s buttons and LCD screen can be used for control and feedback. LED rings around each channel indicate its status by color. Available memory and overload displays are shown on the LCD screen.

CAPABILITIES

  • Transducer conditioning is automatically configured when using transducers with TEDS
  • Built-in home page allows remote set-up with any PC, tablet or smartphone
  • Data transfer and PoE over LAN connection
  • Powered by battery, mains, external DC, or power over Ethernet (PoE)
  • Seven-hour battery can be swapped in the field
  • Also available: LAN-XI Open Application Protocol Interface (API) – a lightweight, platform-independent interface for programming LAN-XI data acquisition hardware from your own (or third party) software.

Type 3677

INPUT + OUTPUT MODULE

Part of the LAN-XI family, this unit is a rugged standalone, four-channel data acquisition module that includes one generator output channel and supports CCLD transducers and 200 V microphones – perfect for the lab or field.

LAN-XI Light modules are tough data acquisition units that capture time data from up to four channels, and are ideally suited for use with BK Connect Applets, specific tools for specific tasks. All LAN-XI Light modules can be used together with Battery Module Type 2831 and Wireless LAN Frame Type 3660-A to create a portable, remote recorder. 

The default configuration of LAN-XI Light Type 3677 (4-channel input and one channel output) data acquisition module uses Front Panel UA-3100-041, which has four BNC connectors and one BNC output channel that can be used as a signal generator with frequency range from 0 to 25.6 kHz. However, Type 3677 can also use optional Front Panel UA-3102-041 to support 200 V microphones requiring 7-pin LEMO connectors.

The signal generator can be easily set up using BK Connect, controlling excitation type, frequency parameters, output level, level ramp up/down times, and burst excitation. The software supports sine (fixed frequency), stepped sine, continuous and burst random, periodic and pseudo-random, white noise and user-defined waveforms.

USE SCENARIOS

  • Production quality testing of consumer goods, such as quick pass/fail measurements according to a tolerance curve
  • Noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) recording under demanding conditions such as on a motorcycle on a vehicle test track
  • Battery-operated recording in the field, such as traffic noise
  • Evaluating sound quality metrics (loudness, sharpness and articulation index)
  • Generator output for structural testing such as modal analysis
