特性 |
|
- Avisoft-UltraSoundGate is a turn-key system that consists of a rugged data acquisition hardware with USB interface and a PC-based harddisk recording software. Depending on the specific application, various ultrasound microphones or hydrophones can be attached.
- Selectable sample rates of up to 750 kHz with adaptive anti-aliasing filter,
- The accompanying Avisoft-RECORDER software provides a real-time spectrogram display and advanced triggering facilities,
- Balanced analog inputs for high immunity against electric interference,
- Multichannel recording with guaranteed synchronity from up to 12 channels,
- Acoustic real-time (broad-band) monitor (models 116xx only),
- Overload indicator & peak level meter (model 116Hm only),
- Gain adjustment potentiometer either continuous (standard version) or stepwise with eleven 3dB increments (optionally on request),
- Trigger button for quick start and stop of recordings.
- Digital inputs for external triggering,
- Easy plug-and-play installation,
- Bus-powered operation (no need for extra power-supplies, which is important in the field),
- Rugged and compact design suited for field use (all parts have been selected for best performance and maximum reliability),
- Watertight, dustproof and unbreakable transport box (model 116Hm only).
