Stand-alone recording

With the CX22 Data Recorder you can do stand-alone measurement without connecting any PC.
With the pre-installed catman software you can do interactive testing with a variety of visualizations for all different signals. In the unattended mode it is also possible to do black-box recording using a hugh set of different trigger options.

A detailed description about your data recorder can be found in the CX22 user manuals:

CX22 operation

All CX22 Data recorders can work stand-alone or also act as a gateway to the PC.
In the stand-alone mode you have the option between a local operation by connecting a (touch-) screen, mouse, and keyboard.

 

It's also possible to connect a PC via Ethernet (cable or Wi-Fi) and to control the data recorder via a remote desktop session. The default user and password are shown in the manual, we recommend changing the password via the shell after first log-in.

 

 

Once you have done your test setup, the data recorder also works without any operation, the so-called unattended test mode.
When this mode is activated via the shell, the data recorder is controlled via power-on, power-off and triggers. 

Watch the video to find out details about unattended test mode for data logging and monitoring.

It is also possible to work with local or remote operation as with any other PC with catman DAQ software in the interactive test mode.
