Note: Multi-Function Recorder (MFR)

The products on this page were released before the introduction of Stack's Multi-Function Recorder, a single box data recording solution. There may be applications when a modular approach is still the better way forward. Please contact us for assistance in finding the best solution for your application.

VS Module

 

 
 

The �VS� Module facilitates the use of video input and data synchronization to a recording device and for subsequent analysis when the data is downloaded to a PC running DataPro with Synchronized Video.

The "VS" Module connects between a remote mounted camera and a digital video recorder, such as the Stack harsh environment DVR.

Any channel that is monitored by the Stack systems can be overlaid into the video picture in real-time. The channel can be formatted with a text label and with the channel units displayed if required.

The "VS" Module can be used in a "stand-alone" configuration, or as part of a larger system.

In addition the "VS" Module features an intelligent alarm capability so that whenever any monitored parameter exceeds a threshold level, a plain text warning message is �popped up� on the recorded video screen.

The "VS" Module provides control switch inputs for manually starting & stopping data logging and for adding Event Markers to the data.

In addition this module has direct sensor inputs for 5 low resolution voltage inputs, a dedicated RPM signal input and 2 pulse inputs.
