High speed data logger

Omron has released a high-speed data logger, the ZR-RX70 Multi-logger. The loggers can be used to collect and observe sensing data and accept multi inputs in voltage, temperature, humidity and pulse. A logic format makes them practical in various fields.

With ZR-RX70 Multi-logger, high-speed sampling at speeds up to 10 µs is possible. Thus, it is suitable for applications such as drop tests and oscillation tests that require high-speed sampling. Data of lengthy applications, such as endurance tests and environmental tests, can be continuously logged to the flash memory at a sampling interval of 1 ms or over.

The logger supports wide input range from ±20 mV to ±500 V. It allows the measurement of 100 to 240 VAC power supply waveforms. The simultaneous measurement of power supply voltages, currents and sequence controls are possible by use of logic input and a clamp meter.

A high-speed AD converter is equipped on each input channel. As the high-performance ICs can simultaneously control all channels, high-speed simultaneous sampling is possible.

Different combinations of the trigger and timer functions offer a wide variety of settings for different situations. They enable users to eliminate superfluous data and capture the data truly necessary for each situation.

The product is equipped with FTP client function. It allows users to pull out any data stored in the logger whenever necessary during data logging.

Users can remote control the logger from the web browser installed in a PC by connecting the logger with an IP address to the PC through an ethernet network.

Remote control across different countries is possible by setting a global IP address on the logger.

PC software is not required. Users can remote control (or view) the logger from a PDA with a web browser.

Omron also offers ZR-RX20A, an economy model with 10 input, and ZR-RX40A, with up to 200 input, to cover all market needs.
