Many months ago there was a bit of discussion on this list about data acquisition boards for static testing. We had picked up a 4 channel unit, but it seems to be limited - both by being four channel and its reliance on a proprietary software that has upgrade charges for additional functionality and little or no documentation for writing more useful software.
That unit will not suffice for POGO, Spike, bipropellants, or other engines we'll be testing down the road. I have just purchased an Omega DAS802 that Doug mentioned back on the old thread. Looks perfect for what we'll be needing (8 channel, 12 bit, more samples/second than we need. :-)). Also has sufficient documentation to write custom software for it if we want. (I'll probably write a Linux driver for it just to write a Linux driver.) I'm going to grab one of the unused Borg machines to install it in and play with it. If all looks good with it Friday night, we'll try it out at Sunday's test. We'll take the old box with us just in case though.
