Muscle Data Acquisition Hardware & Software
Complete Systems
600A: Real-Time Muscle Data Acquisition and Analysis System
A precision, real-time controller and data acquisition system for Aurora Scientific apparatus and measurement devices
605A: Dynamic Muscle Data Acquisition and Analysis System
Integrated, Windows based, powerful and complete data acquisition and analysis system handling the entire data collection, control and analysis of muscle contractile experiments
Hardware
The 604A Analog-to-Digital Interface was designed to enable physiology researchers to easily interface a Dual-Mode muscle lever, force transducer, high-speed length controller and stimulator to a National Instruments PC-based A/D card. The 604A Interface consists of a 1U (1.75”) high, 19” wide, rack-mount case with BNC connectors on the front and a ribbon cable connector on the back. 604B and 604D models accommodate four or two setups (respectively), while the 604B also provides integrated stimulator control.
