DataQuest Racing Data Logger Recorder Acquisition System

DATAQUEST

DATAQUEST utilizes the latest technology in visual high-speed, networked, and modular data acquisition systems. Expandable to a 43 channel capacity.

DATAQUEST?s components are comprised of:

(MCU) Main Control Unit - required component
(TSD) High resolution Full Color Touch Screen Dash Display - optional component
(SWP) Switch Panel - optional component
(SN) Networked Sensor Nodes - optional component
Large selection standard and custom sensors available!
TSD Main Menu TSD Gauge TSD Gauge TSD Shift
Touch Screen Dash Display (TSD)

TSD is a full color, high brightness Touch Panel Display. (Dim 8.25"x4.5"x1.25")

This optional component truly sets the DATAQUEST system apart. TSD features System Setup, Real-Time, Record, and Playback modes in both Graph and Gauge screen formats.

TSD will completely replace conventional dash gauges by being able to display up to 40 different vehicle parameters on a programmable screen. 10 selectable screens can be customized to show engine RPM and any 4 of up to 40 available channels. Each channel has programmable High/Low warning limits that can trip outputs and change color on warning.

TSD provides recorded data playback directly on screen, eliminating the need for PC downloading. Select any recorded run and see data on a Gauge or Graphing formatted Screens. Play, Pause, Fast Forward, or Rewind your data!

TSD can display Shift and Warnings directly on screen eliminating need for ?shift? or ?warning? lights.

Main Control Unit (MCU)

The MCU provides 11 high speed Digital and Analog channels recording @1000 Samples/Sec. (Dim 6.5"x4.12"x1.12")

These built-in channels include Engine Rpm, Drive Shaft RPM, Clutch or Converter RPM, Battery Voltage, 3-Axis Accelerometer, and 4 Auxiliary sensor channels (suitable for general purpose or suspension analysis sensing).

MCU contains secure locking wire harness connections for sub system components, removable SD memory card for data storage, USB port for Real-Time data monitoring and downloadable firmware updates to a PC, and GPS port for track mapping capability.

MCU has 4 programmable relayed outputs that can be activated by any channel or sensor value or warning limit.

MCU
Sensor Nodes
Networked Sensor Nodes (SN)

Dataquest?s Sensor Node Modules are connected via a high speed CAN Network recording @100 Sample/Sec. Up to eight SNs / 32 sensors can be daisy chain linked through a single cable.

Each SN can provide 4 sensor inputs for Analog, Digital, EGT, Temperature, Air/Fuel, Position, Flow, or any other sensor type. Clearly labeled terminal blocks inside the SN allow for easy wire connections (water resistant) and field trimmable cable lengths for clean and easy system installation.

SD Card Memory

DATAQUEST utilizes Secure Digital (SD) card memory to hold all recorded data. These high capacity cards allow for storing literally hundreds of drag race runs, many road course laps, or hours of straight data recording. The removable SD card allows for easy transfer of data to your PC for storage and analysis with the Dataquest?s full featured graphing review software.

Integrated Switch Panel (NEW!)

Controls all vehicle functions through Touch Screen and Solid State Switch Module. Each switch can be time delayed, limit programmed, handle up to 30 amp loads, and record current draw. Module can be connected anywhere along the system's CAN network cable.
