Product Description: Wireless Analog Output Base Station
Overview
LORD MicroStrain®’s Analog Output Base Station provides seamless communication between wireless nodes and a host PC, single board computer or microcontroller. An analog out panel supports analog data acquisition equipment (DAQs). Up to 8 sensor channels from one or multiple wireless nodes can be fed into a DAQ with simultaneous digital feed to PC, or a DAQ with PC removed (stand-alone configuration).
WSDA® gateways are the heart of the LORD MicroStrain® wireless sensing system. The WSDA® coordinates and maintains wireless transmissions across networks of distributed sensor nodes. Each WSDA® is configured with LORD MicroStrain®'s LXRS™ wireless communication protocol. As such, WSDA® gateways support high-speed sampling, thousands of wireless sensor nodes, ±32 microsecond node-to-node synchronization, user-programmable range up to 2 kilometers, and up to 100% data throughput.
Users can easily program each node on the scalable network for simultaneous, periodic, burst, or data logging mode sampling with our Node Commander® software, which automatically configures radio communication to maximize the aggregate sample rate.
