Data Recorders Handle High Bit Rates

Capturing vibration data created from fatigue and crash testing of industrial structures and components, the GSR20f and GSR200f ground-station and test-cell recorders feature high bit rates, all-digital recording, signal interfacing, and interchangeable media. The GSR200f is a rack-mount, 240-Mb/s digital recorder capable of simultaneously acquiring multiple streams of data. Retrieval may be via real-time reconstruction of the original data sources or by direct transfer to a host computer. Otherwise similar to its counterpart, the GSR20f is designed for lower bit rates up to 20 Mb/s. Other shared features include read-after-write technology and an integrated IRIG time code generator/reader. HEIM DATA SYSTEMS INC., Belmar, NJ. (732) 556-2318.
