ENGINEERING COMPANY Announces the Model 3802 – A New Portable Data
Acquisition System
Plymouth, MI Link Engineering announced
the release of a new portable data acquisition system, the Model 3802.
The Model 3802 is the next generation of the Link Compact Data
Acquisition System. It uses a Windows XP Embedded operating system to
provide superb operation and to support additional system features and
enhancements.
Like its predecessor, the 3802 uses an
embedded computer which eliminates the requirement for a laptop computer
for testing. The Model 3802 can capture up to 45 channels of CAN Bus
data from a vehicle’s Controller Area Network. This is in addition to
the standard 8 analog, 6 encoder, and 8 temperature channels and
optional 6 NVH channels. Expansion modules can provide 8 additional
analog channels and 24 additional temperature channels. The Model 3802
also incorporates a voltage module to provide supplemental power during
vehicle startup as well as voltage spike suppression. For current 3801
users, an upgrade package will be available to convert most 3801 systems
to function as with all the capabilities of a new 3802.
Joe Burchill, sales engineer for the
3802, noted: “This platform allows us to continue provide our customers
with a compact, easy to use data acquisition system that now has the
capability to record vehicle CAN data. The new operating software means
that we can continue to develop the 3802 and add further functionality
and features as future.”
