The GNC-CR Central Recording System, now a legacy product, was a Multichannel Recorder containing several Recorder Module Cards. It could be extended to an almost unlimited amount of channels by adding further 12 Bit, 16 Bit, 18 or 24 Bit Recorder Module Cards. These unique features were based on a very compact and user friendly design.
The sensors were interconnected in a star topology and every sensor had its own connection to the GNC-CR Central Recording System. The Network Center provided online surveillance, common trigger and time synchronisation. The LCD indication informed continuously about the current status of the Network Center. Individual trigger setting based on module channel information was possible. Data were stored on solid state CMOS SRAM or Flash memory.
With the GNC-CR Central Recording System and a connected Personal Computer, the parameters of each Recorder Module Card could be set easily and specifically to desired requirements. The actual status could be monitored online on the screen. If an error or a warning occurred on one of the Recorder Module Cards, it would be indicated immediately on the PC screen and a LED lamp on the front panel would be activated.
A listing of the recorded data with the corresponding peak values of the acceleration could be shown online on the PC screen. Data evaluation could start immediately after retrieving measured events to the PC.
The GNC-CR Central Recording System was housed in a rack system.
