WinAQMS Data Acquisition System

The WinAQMS Data Acquisition System (DAS) is Ecotech’s fifth generation data collection and control software system. WinAQMS interfaces with a wide range of analysers via industry standard RS232 serial or USB protocols. Serial connection enables WinAQMS to communicate directly with instruments in digital format and enables multi-dropping of a number of analysers through a single serial port. This confers advantages over conventional A/D systems including reducing the amount of wiring required by the system and increasing the accuracy and precision of the data collected . WinAQMS has been designed to facilitate full system control including automatic multipoint calibrations at user defined intervals and customisation of graphs and reports WinAQMS features two complimentary processes:
