LDS Test and Measurement releases GENESIS 5i - an integrated, high-end data acquisition and transient recording instrument

Middleton, Wisconsin, USA, November 5th 2008. LDS Test and Measurement today announced the launch of their latest integrated Data Acquisition System and transient recorder under the Nicolet brand, the Genesis 5i. This builds on the portability of the Dimension 4i and the multi-channel and transient recording of the Genesis DAQ system and breaks new ground.

Genesis 5i offers data acquisition using a range of configurable input modules. Genesis 5i supports a maximum of up to 40 channels, and can handle a sustained streaming rate of 50 MB/s to its hard disks. It offers a maximum sample rate in transient mode of 100 MS/s per channel, with a huge 1.6 GBytes of memory for each channel.

Physical signal conditioners for voltage, strain, accelerometers or other sensors are available, as well as high speed differential and fiber optic isolated input modules. The integrated Dual Core PC runs Microsoft Windows Vista® 64bit Ultimate, providing enough processing power for the most demanding analysis.
