CAPture SoE is a PC-based solution based on industry-standards, and featuring a familiar Windows based user-interface. In comparison to competing products, CAPture SoE offers:
|
|
Extremely thin time-slices for recording events (100µs for analog events and 1ms for digital events). |
|
|
|
Generous expandability, thanks to its modularity: each component of the solution can be upgraded and modified without affecting the system. |
|
|
|
Flexible configurability: either in a stand-alone or distributed mode, using the same hardware and software components. |

CAPture SoE is a distributed Sequence of Events (SoE) Logger, designed to monitor and record pre-specified parameters of the target environment, through multiple recording entities, so that any failure can be easily matched to a specific sub-system in the environment; and, problem resolution therefore becomes more accurate and quicker. |
| CAPture SoE performs the following tasks: |
|
Detect and identify events through digital input lines with a resolution of 1 millisecond (ms). |
|
|
|
Detect and identify analog events through analog inputs with a resolution of 100 microseconds (µs). |
|
|
|
Maintain separate tables of detected analog and digital events,
for each logging system |
|
|
|
Transmit test data through network to remote display units during tests and off-line |
|
|
|
Merge test data from various acquisition systems and generate reports |
|
|
CAPture SoE is one in a suite of CAPture products, from Captronic Systems; the products targeting automated test requirements, and control and acquisition requirements, across a diversity of industries. |

| Software Features |
| |
The GUI in the DDS module consists of user friendly software panels. The user has options to configure the following:
|
|
|
|
Digital and analog channels for event and pulse acquisition. |
|
|
|
Specifying legend names and the order of displaying the events in the test panel. |
|
|
|
Setting pass/fail criteria, by selecting event time window, threshold and range for analog channels. |
|
|
|
Setting sensor parameters like sensitivity and offset. |
|
|
|
Programming per channel filter settings, for analog channels. |
|
|
|
| |
Monitoring activities or tests are initiated by the DDS modules; and can be started on remote systems simultaneously or one after the other. Synchronization is provided by using a common hardware trigger line for all remote systems. The real-time software can continuously monitor events; for the duration of days. The software performs the following functions during monitoring activities or tests: |
|
|
Analog Event Monitoring with 100µs resolution |
|
|
|
Digital Event Monitoring with 1ms resolution |
|
|
|
Comparison of analog and digital event details with the user-configured look-up tables. |
|
|
|
Determining pass/fail criteria and generating result tables |
|
|
|
Updating custom designed software mimic panels corresponding to digital channels |
|
|
|
Event-based logging, to minimize data size on system hard drives |
|
|
|
Limit-checking on select channels, with alarm indications |
| |
|
|
| Some of the other features provided by the software are: |
|
|
Utility to transfer configuration and test data files from DDS modules to RDAS modules; and vice versa |
|
|
|
Off-line analysis, to analyze previous occurred-events data |
|
|
|
Merging data files from different RDAS modules |
|
|
|
Generating quick reports; both on-line and off-line |
|
|
|
Security settings at the administrator and user levels |
