National Instruments - DASYLab [1]

DASYLab is a graphically programmable data acquisition system for Windows from National Instruments . The acronym stands for " D ata A cquisition Sy stem Lab oratory".

The first version appeared in 1993 and was developed by the then DATALOG GmbH, the further development was taken over by National Instruments in 1998.

The main area of ​​application is the acquisition and visualization of measured values ​​using various measured value acquisition hardware from various manufacturers.

Functions

The programming of a measuring, processing and evaluation chain is done graphically by placing individual modules on the screen - in the so-called circuit diagram. Modules have a defined function (e.g. arithmetic) and can be parameterized after creation (e.g. add, subtract, etc.). The data flow is realized through connections between the inputs and outputs of the modules. The modules are divided into groups for data acquisition, processing and visualization or data storage.

Another option of the program is the ability to design user-specific layouts, e.g. B. can be used as a user interface for users or for special visualizations. As of version 13, a script module enables the insertion of self-created functions. The scripting language used is Python .

variants

DASYLab is delivered in different versions (Pro, Full, Basic and Lite), which differ in their range of functions. There is also a free runtime version that only allows the execution of existing circuit diagram files (.dsb), but not their editing.
