Automatic Data Acquisition Unit

It allows data logging, analysis and extra virtual simulated experiments. It accepts inputsfrom a digital force display, a digital strain display, an angular sensor anddigital deflection indicators. It converts these inputs into the correct datasignals for the computer. The Automatic DataAcquisition Unit is an interface box with software that connects experiments from the Structures range to a suitable computer. The software can also simulate experiments which studentscan perform using the hardware, so they can compare simulated and real results. The software can then analyse the data and createtables and charts.
