Supported devices

Every device is included in every licence, with no surcharge per device or channel.

Device	Interface	Channels	Note
HBM / HBKMGCplus CP22 / CP42	Ethernet RS232	up to 16	One channel per slot, several read in rotation. DaqFox detects empty slots when it connects.
HBM / HBKScout 55	RS232	1	Gross, net and the device's peak-value memories, under the names its manual uses.
GTMLT-Digitizer	USB	2 / 4 / 6	Integration and software tare in DaqFox, plus the device's own calibration at a button press. Otherwise DaqFox writes no setting to the device.
NorbarTTT Series 3	RS232	1	Listens only and sends nothing. Every reading the instrument outputs is taken, with its unit and, where set on the instrument, the limit verdict.
DemoSimulators	–	–	A simulated rack, a simulated TTT and a simulated LT-Digitizer, to try things out and to demonstrate.

What to know per device

HBM/HBK MGCplus

CP22 / CP42, RS232 or Ethernet

Over Ethernet the IP address is enough; DaqFox uses the TCP port from the HBM manual.
Up to 16 slots. Several channels are read in turn, so the rate per channel divides.
At connect DaqFox checks with *IDN? that the device really answers, and asks which slots are fitted.
Racks badged HBM or HBK are the same device.

HBM/HBK Scout 55

RS232

Gross and net, filtered and unfiltered.
The device's peak-value memories as MAX, MIN and peak-to-peak, named as in its manual.

GTM LT-Digitizer

2, 4 or 6 channels, USB

Integration and software tare in DaqFox; CALIBRATE triggers the device's own calibration.
Each activated channel is calibrated when first read, which takes about ten seconds. Keep the sensor unloaded meanwhile.
Close GTM's own PC software first: it otherwise holds the port.

Norbar TTT Series 3

RS232, 43228

DaqFox only listens and sends nothing to the instrument.
Format, unit and limits are read from the data itself; there is nothing to configure.
CAPTURE takes the displayed, held value at once. Averaging does not apply to this instrument, because every reading it sends is a measurement somebody made on purpose.

Connected in three steps

Pick the device family, pick the model, press Connect & init. For RS232 you choose the COM port, for Ethernet the IP address. The device's answer appears under the buttons, and reading starts by itself.

Two columns cannot share one COM port. Windows then reports "access denied", and DaqFox writes it into the second column's log.

An amplifier that is not on the list yet is not ruled out. Tell us the maker, model and interface. Demand decides which devices come next.
