BK Connect Hardware-Setup - 8401

BK Connect Hardware Setup is designed so that test engineers and specialists can create and save custom, reusable set-ups without tying up the other acquisition or analysis licenses. The set-ups can be loaded and used by a technician in the lab or on location, wherever the testing needs to be performed.

The user-interface design enables set-ups to be quickly configured for ad hoc measurements using the TEDS transducer capabilities by dragging transducers from the Transducer Database and dropping them in the set-up or by uploading a .DBC file to configure your CAN Bus channels. The application is comprised of the Hardware Setup Table (an overview of the set-up) and Monitor (a real-time display of the connected front ends). 

ADDITIONAL CAPABILITIES

The BK Connect Type 8401-A advanced license adds the following capabilities:

• Set up and measure with an unlimited number of LAN-XI modules. The standard license is limited to two front ends 
• Accelerometer mounting check gives testers the ability to quickly check the mounting condition of their accelerometers, ensuring that each one is firmly attached

The free, optional, Type 8401-V virtual license can be added to enable set-ups to be created without connection to a physical front end. These set-ups can be saved and loaded later where a technician can perform the actual tests when the valuable hardware becomes available.  The virtual front end is user configured based on the customer’s specific hardware
