Recording and Playback Software
WINDAQ Acquisition and WINDAQ Waveform Browser allow you to record and playback data acquired through your
instrument. W
INDAQ software is an invaluable resource to record and analyze your data and is available for free from
our web site (www.dataq.com).
W
INDAQ Lite Data Acquisition software (free) can be used to record waveforms directly and continuously to disk
while monitoring a real time display of the waveforms on-screen. It operates, displays, and records all channels in
real time. An optional unlock code is available to allow you to synchronize multiple units and expand channel count
using ChannelStretch.
W
INDAQ Waveform Browser playback software (also known as “WWB”) offers an easy way to review and analyze
acquired waveforms. A built-in data file translator allows the user to display multiple waveforms acquired by
W
INDAQ Acquisition software or any of a wide range of data acquisition packages. The software’s disk-streaming
design allows data files of any length to be graphically displayed rapidly, in normal or reverse time directions. Seven
standard cursor-based measurements, frequency domain, and statistical analysis functions help simplify waveform
analysis and interpretation. W
INDAQ Waveform Browser is free and installed when installing WINDAQ Software.
