Description

Applications

The e-corder 410 is a high performance four channel data
recording and analysis system. It records analog signals froma wide variety of transducers and instruments, as well as fromeDAQ Amps and Pods. It features four programmable differential
input amplifiers and can record 16 bit resolution data directly
to your PC at speeds of up to 100 000 samples/s via thecomputer USB interface. A built-in software controlled analog
output, provides basic pulse and waveform generation.

The e-cordercorder is ideal for the recording and analysis of experimental signals in physical science applications. Absolutely no
programming is required and the powerful on-line and off-line
analysis functions allow results to be quickly extracted fromthe recorded data. The system can be used to replace paper
based chart recorders and data acquisition cards in applications
such as Electrochemistry, Kinetics, Chromatography, Acoustics,Optics, Materials Testing, Engineering, and Thermal Analysis.
