Now you
can mix KT & DTS DAS under control of SureFire
For Immediate Release
Mississauga ON Canada, 4 April 2006
Microsys has introduced support for the Kayser-Threde
ruggedized and stationary MINIDAU® data acquisition
systems to its SureFire product line. Now you can use
the SureFire software package to control Kayser-Threde
MINIDAU® along side DTS TDAS equipment, share the same
sensor database and have one easy to use graphical user
interface. You also get the advantage of direct access
to all the hardware features of your TDAS and MINIDAU
equipment without relying on any emulation or middleware
that restricts functionality.
In addition to controlling your KT and DTS data
acquisition systems during the test, SureFire allows you
to interactively test your setup as you go, save the
configuration for instant recall at a later date and
with additional options you can add control of your
high-speed cameras and lighting system for a truly
integrated solution. By using one integrated software
package instead of a software package for each hardware
type you reduce training costs, reduce the potential for
errors, cutback on the number of computers needed, and
easily ensure all your data is save in the correct
format and in the correct location.
With SureFire you are no longer tied to one vendor of
data acquisition hardware. Now you can choose one vendor
today and another in the future with confidence that you
can continue to use both DAS makes together. Furthermore
your software interface and test process remain the
same, resulting in more up-time and less operator
re-training.
SureFire for MINIDAU and TDAS designed for use in any
of the following applications:
- Sled
- Barrier
- Car to car
- Roll-over
- OOP
- Drop tower
- Pendulum
Throughout the software development process Microsys
worked closely with Kayser-Threde to ensure that
SureFire would provide reliable operation of the MINIDAU
equipment. Kayser-Threde reviewed the operation of the
MINIDAU using SureFire and verified that all functions
worked according to their expectations.
