DAQ is back—with remote measurements. The new NI Ethernet CompactDAQ chassis: cDAQ-9183/9187.
CompactDAQ is the ideal DAQ system for engineers needing to deploy Ethernet test systems or build high channel- count test systems because it saves time, cost, and is future proof. These chassis are specifically designed for electrical and sensor measurements over Ethernet supported distances, offering a streamlined, budget-friendly design. They feature a single Ethernet port and omit external trigger lines, enabling engineers to achieve cost savings without sacrificing performance.
Manage data from anywhere across your Ethernet network with the new NI Ethernet CompactDAQ chassis. Now test engineers can acquire precise, synchronized measurements remotely—and more affordably than ever.
Add powerful software like NI FlexLogger™ Lite to boost productivity without needing to develop new tools.
What Are CompactDAQ Chassis?
CompactDAQ Chassis control the timing, synchronization, and data transfer between C Series I/O modules and an external host. They feature USB, Ethernet, or WiFi connectivity and come in multiple slot counts to provide the right amount of I/O for various applications.
Acquire Mixed Measurements
A CompactDAQ Chassis can acquire synchronized measurements from over 60 measurement-specific modules to directly connect to your sensor or signal. With multiple timing engines, you can run separate hardware-timed I/O tasks at different rates in the same system.
Deploy in Harsh Environments
You can deploy closer to your measurement and reduce the length of noise-prone sensor wires thanks to the CompactDAQ Chassis’ rugged form factor with an extended operating temperature range of -40 °C to 70 °C, 50 g shock, and 5 g vibration ratings.
Synchronize Distributed Systems
You can accurately synchronize over long distances and minimize cabling costs with Time Sensitive Networking (TSN)–enabled chassis that simplify distributed measurements with time synchronization over Ethernet. Easily expand your system with the integrated network switch for simple daisy chaining.
Customize Your Application
LabVIEW simplifies automation and customization with seamless hardware integration, approachable programming, and built-in analysis algorithms. Use LabVIEW with a CompactDAQ Chassis to visualize and analyze real-world signals to make data-driven decisions.
