Data acquisition systems make various types of physical measurements, such as temperature, pressure, flow, strain, position, and speed, using electronic equipment. The data collected is usually sent to a computer for analysis and display. Data acquisition and control (DAC) systems also take action (control) based on the data they receive. Turning on or off lights, motors, valves, heaters, and fans are common functions of control. Sending out voltage, current, digital words, pulses, and waveforms are also forms of control from the DAC system. DAC software running in the computer coordinates and executes these functions.
