UEILogger supports Can, Arinc-429,
RS-232/422/485
This new capability, combined with the logger's existing ability to log analogue and digital input data, makes the UEILogger a unique and very powerful product
United Electronic Industries (UEI) announces that its popular UEILogger series can now log CAN and ARINC-429 bus data as well as RS-232, 422 and 485 ports The new functionality combined with the logger's small size and ruggedness (50g shock, -40 to +85C, 0-70,000 feet) makes it an ideal data logger for in-vehicle testing in the aerospace, aircraft, automotive, marine and rail transportation industries

Linking to the UEILogger data logger over cellular
United Electronic Industries (UEI) has released an application note detailing how to interface the company's UEILogger data logger cubes to a user's host computer over a cellular network
Data acquisition at up to 2km range
The fibre interface extends the maximum distance between a PowerDNA I/O Cube and its host computer from the 100 metre ethernet/100base-T limitation to two kilometres
Analogue output boards for PowerDNA Daq cubes
Each of the boards offers eight analogue output channels with maximum update rates of 100kHz per channel (800kHz per board)
The UEILogger is also an excellent match for a host of other applications requiring a combination of traditional data logging with the ability to log Can/429/Serial data.
One of the most powerful capabilities of the new support is the UEILogger's ability to transmit sequenced and scheduled query strings over the various communications interfaces.
Simply capturing all the data on a communications bus or port is straightforward.
However, some devices on the bus might only transmit their information when requested to do so.
The logger allows the user to schedule data transmissions over the bus to issue these data requests without requiring any programming.
The user need only enter the query string(s) desired and how frequently they need be sent.
The UEILogger does the rest.
Logging may even be started and stopped based on Can-bus communications allowing the user to define events in the vehicle that will initiate and stop the logging.
"The UEILogger's ability to log analog, digital and communications data at the same time is a very rare capability." according to Shaun Miller, UEI president.
"Adding the ability to not only log data from Can, Arinc-429 and serial devices, but to provide scheduled interrogation of devices on the various buses makes the UEILogger unique and extremely powerful.".
