System Overview
The D
X
telemetry system consists of one receiver unit (RCI) and up to four multi-channel
transmitters (SCTs). Up to 6 data channels per transmitter can be recorded. Measurement
data are digitalized at the transmitter and serially radio-transmitted to the receiver. A 200 Hz
sync signal of the RCI ensures synchrony of transmitters.
Data rate of radio channel is
– depending on configuration – up to 100kbit/s.
Radio signals are received in diversity mode. Measurement values are displayed as analog
signals and CAN messages.
Energy supply of transmitters is very flexible: The SCTs can either be supplied inductively
(by stator head or ring stator), by commercial 9V batteries or by rechargeable batteries.
