Data Acquisition Systems - Setting the Parameters Correctly

Understanding the meaning of the essential parameters for adjusting the measuring amplifier is the only way to ensure correct measurement results later. This seminar, which includes a large proportion of practical work, will teach you what you need to know about the material. 

Did you know that the most serious measurement errors are caused by an unfavorable choice of measurement parameters? If parameters such as the sample rate and filter settings are not optimally adjusted, this often results in deviations in the two-digit percentage range – despite accurate measuring devices!

Using real examples, you will become familiar with the topic of "measurement uncertainty": from the most important influencing variables to the appropriate method of calculation. Our experienced trainers will introduce you to the subject, and in many practical exercises you will gain a deep understanding of measurement uncertainty. HBK Academy ONLINE courses are delivered in real-time with an instructor available to answer questions.

Learning Objectives

• In this seminar, you will learn what the most important parameters are for measured data acquisition and how to select and adjust them correctly for the measurement task.

Topics included

• Signal shapes and their frequency bandwidths
• Choosing the correct sample rates that match the signal shape and signal frequency
• Preventing aliasing effects
• Low-pass filters – their different characteristics and using them to meet the requirements of your measurement task
• Data flow in modern data acquisition systems

Target Group

Anyone who wants to acquire measured data digitally while preventing errors and being on the safe side.

Requirements
