Product Overview

DTS has designed and engineered a complete line of software exclusively for DTS data acquisition systems. All software is developed with intuitive user interfaces, flexible features and maximum efficiency for data collection, viewing and analysis.

Description

The DTS TDAS Control Software has been developed by test engineers for test engineers. TDAS Control is used to run TDAS PRO, TDAS PRO LAB and TDAS G5 data acquisition systems. It implements extensive diagnostic features and a simple user interface, ensuring configuration is easy. TDAS Control provides easy-to-use tools for configuring output timing, as well as advanced features such as automatic sensor assignment, detailed channel diagnostics real-time display. Additional features for the TDAS PRO Timed Output Module include squib resistance checks and firing to internal loads to ensure consistent testing.

Information regarding TDAS hardware calibration, test setup information, and calibration information for the sensors in the test lab inventory is stored in files that are managed by the TDAS Control software. TDAS hardware is rugged, modular and inherently scalable. TDAS PRO and TDAS G5 systems can be linked together for >6,400 channels in one test.

There are no potentiometers to adjust because hardware settings are made completely under software control. Every time a data collection task is initiated, the software runs a thorough calibration check on each measurement channel. Appropriate gains are set, sensor offsets are zeroed and anti-aliasing filters are set. The software also contains standard point-and-click processing options for SAE-class post-filters, integrals, resultants, HICs, and others.
