Multimeter and data acquisition system

Keithley's Model 2700 multimeter/data acquisition system is a high-performance, half-rack instrument that combines the functionality and high channel count of a datalogger with the accuracy, convenience and stability of 6,5-digit DMM for the price of a high-performance PC plug-in board. Compatible plug-in modules provide the Model 2700 with low per-channel installed cost in a high-performance data acquisition and control package.
The Model 2700 provides up to 80 differential channels of multiplexed measure- ment and control offering significantly more channels in less space. It suits applications where signal levels are beyond the capabilities of ordinary plug-in data acquisition cards, including high voltage, high current, and direct ohms measurement. It has the equivalent of 22 bit A/D resolution.
A variety of system-level control functions enable the Model 2700 to control power to the DUTs, switch loads and perform general signal routing. Whether one's tasks call for a simple startup package to acquire several channels of data or tools to create a fully custom acquisition and analysis solution, Keithley says it can offer the software needed that will get the most performance from the system.
Says Spescom MeasureGraph Sales Manager, Kevin Preston: "Keithley's broad range of software solutions make it easy to get applications 'up and running' quickly and economically. For experienced programmers who prefer to build fully custom systems from scratch, Keithley provides a Series 2700 instrument driver for use with application development environments such as LabVIEW, LabWindows CVI, Visual Basic, C/C++, and TestPoint. Numerous examples and on-line help are provided."
