Teac GX-1, Инструкция по эксплуатации

Introduction
1-3
SCSI
The GX-1 is a customizable data acquisition system for measurement data; the GX-1
enables construction of a data collection system optimized to your needs. Recorded
data can be saved to files for a PC in a TEAC unique format called TAFFmat, and
can be opened and processed using commercially available analytical PC software.
A variety of signal conditioners can be installed as input amps, so you can forget the
nightmare of setting up many amps individually and connecting the power supply for
them. The GX-1 main unit contains 8 slots for input amps. Each input amp card han-
dles 2 input channels, which enables up to 16 input channels to be recorded when all
8 input card slots are used. Furthermore, you can use optional channel expansion
units to expand the number of channels up to 64 input channels.
You can choose the recording medium that best suits what you want to measure:
memory, AIT (Advanced Intelligent Tape), MO, or PC card. Whichever you choose,
after recording you can pass on the data to a PC via SCSI as well as record data
directly to a PC's hard disk. Of course, if you choose an AIT drive, after recording
you can insert the AIT cartridge into a PC's external AIT drive for data processing at
the PC. Also, the data recorded on an MO or a PC card can be read by a PC’s exter-
nal MO drive or PC card slot as TAFFmat files.
The GX-1 can be controlled either from a PC via SCSI using provided software
(named “GX Navi”), or from a remote controller that has a color LCD (DK-
GXLCD). If you just want to control the recording status, a hand-held remote con-
troller (ER-GXRC) is handy.
Overview
▼
A PC cannot recognize the internal drive of a
GX-1.
▼
On an AIT cartridge, the data is stored in a
TEAC unique format. However, you can use
the software that comes with the GX-1 to copy
the data as a TAFFmat file to a PC.
