With the capability to hold different function modules, the chassis helps users achieve synchronisation across devices and applications.
Whatever the configuration, each DAQ device offers quick, easy setup with USB and its bundled software, allowing users to begin performing measurements in no time.
With the included IVI-driver, users can also choose to automate measurement and control with Agilent VEE or any other popular application development environments.
The Agilent USB DAQ family comprises the following series of devices.
The Agilent U2500A Series of simultaneous-sampling multifunction DAQ devices cater to phase-sensitive applications.
The Agilent U2300A Series multifunction DAQ devices offer high sampling rates up to 3Msample/s per channel for electromechanical applications that require electrical and physical measurements.
The U2100A and U2600A Series isolated digital input-output devices are optimised to work with various sensors and actuators for seamless machine control and automation.
The Agilent U2781A six-slot modular instrument chassis provides channel expansion for the U2300A, U2500A and U2600A Series modules.
And Agilent's U2802A thermocouple input device works with the U2355A/U2356A DAQ models for temperature measurements.
"In almost every industry, demand is rising for solutions that are scalable to expanding systems and evolving needs", says Ee Huei Sin, Vice President and General Manager of Agilent's Basic Instruments Division.
"Our USB DAQ devices provide not only the flexibility that today's industry demands, but also solutions that are simple, affordable and easily integrated".
