2 LMS Scadas Recorder
Is this your Scenario…what instrument do you use?
Motorcycle test in operational conditions
Wide range of NVH & Durability tests
Example: Structural dynamic testing
Instrumentation for vibration measurement
Driving in operational conditions (city streets)
Recording acceleration & speed
Post analysis towards a better understanding of dynamic behavior
Choices I have:
Recorder for data acquisition followed by analysis in post processing
(both high & low channel counts)
Impractical to use PC based equipments
3 LMS Scadas Recorder
Is this your Scenario…what instrument do you use?
High-speed trains & nuclear plants
Typical application for high-end NVH systems with high channel
counts as well as distributed units
One-shot attempt to perform the measurement
Zero risk situation
Choices I have:
High-speed & high-channel count data recorder
• Reliable Recording & Dependable Storage
• Analysis in post processing
Note: tape Recorders are generally used despite low hardware quality
Engineers are moving towards analyzers as they need data validation
during measurement
4 LMS Scadas Recorder
Is this your Scenario…what instrument do you use?
Proving Ground Vehicle test
Wide range of NVH & Durability tests
Example: Internal noise assessment
Determination of occupant noise signature
Data recording from microphones in correlation with vehicle
conditions & sometime with its position
Data analysis in post processing towards refinement studies
Choices I have:
High-end system for engineering tasks with high channel counts
Analyzer for assessment tasks with low channel counts
Recorder for data acquisition followed by analysis in post
processing (both high & low channel counts)
