M6000 Data Acquisition System Real-time applications from Cranfield Data Systems
Cranfield Data Systems' (CDS) M6000 data acquisition system is a multi-function signal processing and monitoring unit designed for a variety of engineering environments, including aircraft and automotive systems that permit computationally intensive signal analysis to occur simultaneously with continuous high-throughput data acquisition. The product is expandable from 32 to 256 input channels, and multiple systems can be networked using high-speed fiberoptics for an unlimited channel count.
CDS' data acquisition software applications were originally designed to run on a proprietary real-time operating system (RTOS) and proprietary processor architecture.
After eventually considering commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products, CDS decided to migrate the M6000 to the LynxOS® real-time operating system, running on a PowerPC® G4 processor. Migration went smoothly and resulted in a competitive and profitable product.
