Features
■ Input/Output Amps
The LX main unit is equipped with two slots and the optional expansion unit provides an additional two slots
for installing the input amps and/or the output amps. The input/output amp provides 8-channel
inputs/outputs from the selections below.
DC input amp card: Use to connect voltages and/or to connect signals of external amplifiers.
PA amp input card: In addition to voltages, a voltage output accelerometer input providing an A/C
weighting filter can be connected directly.
ST amp input card: Use to connect strain gauges (full bridge) and/or gage-type sensors, and also
voltages.
Analog output amp card: Use to reproduce analog signals.
■ Recording Modes
You can use the PC card drive for data recording onto a removable media.
Memory recording: Recording up to 64MB (add up to 576MB as an option) of internal memory.
Stored data can be transferred to the removable media or the PC.
PC card recording: Stored data on the PC card (Compact Flash + PC card adapter) can be loaded into the
PC by using the PC card slot. By supporting FAT32, you can use a PC card with a
maximum of 8GB as a media.
PC recording: Recording directly to the PC.
You can also transfer data to a PC while recording to memory or the media, or automatically save to the
media after recording to memory.
■ Quantization Bits
Either conventional 16 bits A/D or 24 bits A/D, providing a dynamic range of 100db, can be selected.
■ Sampling Frequency Series
In addition to the LX-110, which provides two series of sampling frequency - a 96 kHz sampling frequency
and a low-speed sampling, the LX-120 enables one to select as five series of sampling frequency - 102.4 kHz,
100 kHz, 96 kHz, 65.536 kHz and a low-speed sampling.
■ Interface with PC
Either IEEE1394 for high-speed data transfer or 100BASE-TX LAN for network environment can be selected.
■ Real Time Monitor
You can monitor the data as formats of waveforms, bar graphs, and digital displays on the PC display while
recording. And, you can reproduce the recorded data in the internal memory or the media.
■ A Variety of Recording Triggers
Manual: Starts recording manually.
Level Trigger: Starts recording by detecting level changes in a specified channel.
External Trigger: Starts recording by using an external signal as the trigger.
Pre-trigger: A pre-trigger can record the data that was read into a buffer before a recording-start
condition (based on a level trigger or external trigger) is satisfied.
Post-trigger: Continues to record for a set period even after a recording-stop condition (based on a
level trigger or external trigger) has been satisfied.
