daqINSIGHT Features
​Note: Many of our images show sine waves - This is because they are easy to generate for screenshots. daqINSIGHT is for real-time data monitoring and not intended to be an oscilloscope software.
-
Installs with numerous interfaces or Human Machine Interfaces (HMI) to use or explore as examples.
-
Installs with test code for Arduinos and Parallax Propeller 2 microcontrollers.
-
Accepts serial ASCII strings for analog data (10,20,30), digital data (%100010), instructions (!plot.reset), setting properties (!meter0.max=500) and numerous other uses. Nearly all facets of daqINSIGHT can be controlled with serial strings through event code of controls, from a microcontroller, or from the DEBUG/CLI window.
-
Easily parse data from non-programmable DAQ devices which output serial ASCII strings, such as the ADC-10-F103C modules.
-
Plots 10 channels of analog or digital data quickly and easily. Data can be easily scaled before plotting.
-
Analog data may be plotted with linear Y-Axis, Logarithmic Y-Axis, as X-Y Scatter values or as bar charts quickly through menus, or use drawing instructions to use for unique plotting needs.
-
Quickly monitor data with a variety of virtual meters and indications. Update Values allow updating control values quickly and easily from incoming data.
-
Common and high-level math operations, such as standard deviation, for data manipulation and analysis.
-
String manipulation and basic math operations using fast post-fix math operations.
-
Log data with the logging control or create custom logs by writing data to a file with code.
-
Generate reports of real-time data from a template text file, such as .txt, .csv or HTML.
-
Multiple serial ports may be used for simultaneous data from multiple devices.
-
Read data on the interface from your microcontrollers for use in interactive control.
-
Use your own graphics for backgrounds, buttons and other uses.
-
Use image and drawing instructions to create specialized visualization of your data.​
-
Use the installed interfaces for your data, modify them, or rapidly design your own.
-
Use the installed interfaces to see how common functions are performed by looking at their event code and other settings.
-
Click and place controls ranging from common controls such as buttons and textboxes to meters, logging controls, and image controls.
-
Set properties (look and feel, settings) of controls and interfaces easily.
-
Write event code quickly for controls with contextual help to perform actions when a control event occurs, such as click a button, moving a slider, meters exceed a setpoint, analog data arrives, etc.
-
Create variables and List Arrays to hold and manipulate data.
