Sound and vibration measurement software

9 November 2011 Test & Measurement

National Instruments released the latest version of its NI Sound and Vibration Measurement Suite software, which provides a comprehensive collection of analysis and signal processing tools for noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) testing, machine condition monitoring (MCM) and audio test applications.

Engineers can use the suite as standalone software or combine it with NI hardware and LabVIEW system design software to simplify test system development and control. With its new vibration data-logging functionality and other enhancements, the suite helps engineers to more easily customise and automate any MCM or NVH test or monitoring application.

The new ready-to-run data-logging virtual instrument makes it possible to save data continuously or based on specific criteria such as triggers or time. Engineers can easily configure the data-logger and run it as long as necessary for a variety of sensor types including accelerometer, tachometer and proximity probes.

The measurement suite also includes the Sound and Vibration Assistant, a standalone software module for quickly acquiring, analysing and logging acoustic, noise and vibration data. Additionally, the software provides new application examples for impact test and swept sine analysis.
