This technique allows to expand the internal data bus of a PC or add a PCI-Bus to systems like notebooks. In addition to this also a separation between the noisy PC environment and the high sensitive signal conditioning and digitising of the analoge values increases the whole system quality. Since this PCI-to-PCI-Bridges are completely transparent there are no necessary changes, from the software point of view, to operate the DEWE-51-PCI-xx and DEWE-50-PCI-xx systems. The host PC “thinks” all the PCI-Boards are installed inside the PC directly. PCI BRIDGE and Cascading (option -CS) connector The PCI-HOST connector is usually connected to the PCI expansion connector of the Notebook (PCMCIA card) or DESKTOP PC (PCI card). Installing multiple DEWE-50-PCI-xx or DEWE-51-PCI-xx, the PCI-SLAVE connector can be connected in daisy chain manner to the PCI-HOST connector of the neighbor system. ORION-16xx SYNC connector (option) The Cascading option allows to expand the number of PCI slots for installing multiple boards. But this cascading does not guarantee the time synchronisation between the sub systems. Having ORION-1624 installed in the DEWE-50-PCI-64 this synchronisation can be realised by expanding the ORION-1624 synchronisation bus. Connecting multiple systems can simply be done with daisy chaining similar like cascading the PCI bus. With two LED’s the configuration of the subsystems is indicated: The LED ME is on, if a right configured master system is connected at the Synch-IN-connector. The LED MI is on, if the DEWE-50-PCI-64 is configured to master. 18 Main System Software installation Installing single DEWE-50-PCI-64 The DEWE-50-PCI-64 is based on PCI to PCI bridge systems. It offers the expansion of the internal PCI slots of the DEWE-2010, DEWE-3020, DEWE-4010 or DEWE-5000 series or adds PCI slots to notebooks. Since the PCI bus is a basic system component of any PC, the PCI to PCI bridge has neither Plug and Play nor hot swap capabilities. Therefore the driver installation is different to standard PCI-board installation or adding USB devices to your PC. In general following rules have to be considered during the software installation of the DEWE-50-PCI-64: In the first step the additional PCI slots have to be recognized from your system, than the drivers for additional hardware can be installed. The following basic steps lead you through the installation process. Be aware that there are differences related to the operating system (WinXP or Win2000), the service pack and system drivers. Ensure power is turned off to all electronic devices prior to performing any maintenance or upgrades and installations. Following anti-static procedures in ALL steps! Insert the PCMCIA card (or the PCI Expansion Host Interface to the desktop PC) Connect the cable to both PCMCIA (or PCI) card and DEWE-50-PCI-64 Plug in the DEWE-50-PCI-64 power cord Power on the DEWE-50-PCI-64 Power on the Notebook (or PC) Depending on the system – as described above – the first start may be different. Usual procedure: The Notebook (or PC) will find a PCI-to-PCI bridge Install the hardware driver by clicking 3 times <next> at the Windows hardware install wizard until reboot is prompted Reboot your system Run <setup.exe> from the DEWETRON-SYSTEM DVD at directory <E:\Install\Drivers\X_Various\MAGMA\Mobility Express Card> and follow the installation instructions prompted to install the PCI expansion Shut down your complete system (include DEWE-50-PCI-64) Turn on your system again (first DEWE-50-PCI-64 followed by the Notebook or PC) Again one additional PCI-to-PCI bridge will be found Install the hardware driver but use the System-DVD as location for the driver Reboot your system again Now the Notebook (or PC) will find the hardware devices installed in the DEWE-50-PCI-64 (please refer below for usual hardware installing process). It may happen that on the very first start already the PCI-hardware installed in the DEWE-50-PCI-64 is found without running <setup.exe> from the System-DVD. Please do not install any of these hardware drivers without running <setup.exe> from System-DVD. Try to do exact the steps described above. When the system prompt to install any hardware drivers before the above steps are not complete done please click <cancel> at the hardware driver install wizard. This will guarantee a well working system. DE-M080501E • DEWE-50-PCI-64 • Technical Reference Manual • Printing version 1.0.3 • December 04, 2012 19 Main System Installing multiple DEWE-51-PCI-xx or DEWE-50-PCI-xx If several DEWETRON-systems are connected to the PC please connect at first just one DEWE-51-PCI-xx or DEWE-50-PCI-xx to the host computer. If the installation of the first system is finished continue with connecting all other expansion systems step by step to the host PC. The installation of additional DEWETRONsystems is similar to the other installing process: First of all install the PCI-Bridge and in the next step the hardware driver of the installed boards. The only difference to the installation of the first system is that the MAGMA driver don’t have to be installed again. Depending on the hardware configuration of the notebook it may happen, that the notebook does not start anymore as soon the second or the third DEWE-51-PCI-xx or DEWE-50-PCI-xx is connected. The reason of that is that the device manager of the operating system (usual Win2K or WinXP) will not automatically reserve the needed memory range. In this case this has to be done manually: NOTE: Before performing this task, verify that the Magma Driver is installed. Go to add/remove programs and look for “Magma Cardbus Expansion Driver”, if so - the driver is installed. Disconnect DEWE-51-PCI-xx or DEWE-50-PCI-xx from your notebook by ejecting the card bus card Reboot your system Go to your local disk drive and look for \C:\Programfiles\Magma\CBREGEDIT.EXE RUN CBREGEDIT.EXE and check Filter I/O Type in 20000000 in “Memory” and “Prefetch” Click “Save” and shutdown your notebook Connect the DEWE-51-PCI-xx or DEWE-50-PCI-xx unit to your Notebook. Reboot your system again and install the hardware driver Reboot your system again and install the hardware driver With the same procedure, connect step by step all your DEWE-51-PCI-xx or DEWE-50-PCI-xx to your system If your system hangs after adding the last chassis, run CBregedit.exe and change the values from 20000000 to 40000000 on Prefetch and Memory. Don’t forget to enable the FilterIO by placing a checkmark into the “FilterIO” box 20 Main System Installing the PCI-board hardware driver The hardware installation procedure depends on the installed hardware in the DEWE-51-PCI-xx and the DEWE-50-PCI-xx. In case of NI card please abort the process and then insert the NI-DAQ CD to install the drivers. Please follow the installation instructions of the NI-DAQ setup program. In case of ORION-1624 card please insert the DEWE-System DVD and select the location: <E:\Install\Drivers\DAQBoards\Dewetron\OrionDSA> For other hardware please refer to the manufacturers installation instruction. The table beyond shows the installed PCI-Boards in the DEWE-51-PCI-xx or DEWE-50-PCI-xx and also the DVD name of the driver location Installing DEWESoft It is recommended to install all necessary drivers prior to installing DEWESoft, as DEWESoft will need to see the drivers and Orion cards present in order for the registration code to allow the software to function. Install DEWESoft, using the System-DVD. Locate the license key sheet provided by DEWETRON and be prepared to enter your license key into the field when DEWETRON runs for the first time. All of the hardware must be connected and properly working in order for this process to work, because DEWESoft compares the license to some values received from hardware within the DEWE-51-PCI-xx or DEWE-50-PCI-xx.

The DEWE-50-PCI-64 in total accepts 7 full size PCI boards. 26 Software DEWESoft™ DEWESoft ™ DEWESoft™ Software Turns our Hardware into a Powerful Data Acquisition System Our award-winning data acquisition package is second to none when it comes to both pure recording power and ease of use. Normally it is a difficult balancing act to provide lots of capability and performance, without making the user interface cumbersome and hard to learn. But with careful and innovative design, we have done exactly that! Key Features of DEWETRON systems running DEWESoft ™ The software can act as a simple multi-meter or recorder as well as a sophisticated combustion analyzer or power analyzer. Or anything in between these extremes, like a FFT analyzer, transient recorder, etc. Powerful online data processing, MATH functions, filters, statistics, reference curves Fast and easy setup Perfect sync of vastly different signals like analog, digital, counter, CAN, XCP, GPS, Video, ARINC, 1553, etc. Attractive online display of all kind of data, creation of displays is a matter of seconds Over 10 years DEWESoft ™ evolved into a great data acquiAnalog, digital or CAN data output; powerful sition software and is Nr.1 in synchronous acquisition of function generator, alarms, CAN messages vastly different signals like analog, digital, CAN, GPS, Build test procedures in a form of workflow PCM, counter, video, etc. In 2010 with the release of diagram by means of sequencer version 7, DEWESoft ™ takes a big step toward become a Fast data analysis, reload GByte files in very powerful data analysis tool for a wide range of test seconds & measurement applications. Since many years you can utilize math channels in the measure mode for online calPost processing, large suite of calculation culations. Starting with version 7.0, captured data can be (math) functions re-calculated in the analyze mode using the large suite of calculation (math) functions available in the measure mode. This eliminates the CPU performance limitations and thus provides unlimited offline calculation power. Example: Performing a 10 th order notch filter on 128 channels being sampled at 200 kS/s each. This is not possible online. But in analyze mode it´s easy. Simply record the data and then filter it afterwards (math functions are non-destructive, i.e., they do not affect the raw channels). Another important new feature is the sequencer which provides a way to automate test procedures. DE-M080501E • DEWE-50-PCI-64 • Technical Reference Manual • Printing version 1.0.3 • December 04, 2012 27 DEWESoft™ Hardware Support DEWESoft ™ supports DEWETRON hardware cards as well as some third-party cards, like Spectrum cards for transient recording. Multiple cards of the same family are supported for high channel counts. There is also a huge range of DEWETRON signal conditioners which are all perfectly implemented into the software. Besides the analog inputs DEWESoft ™ supports the digital I/Os, counters and CAN interfaces of DEWETRON hardware. To acquire video streams in sync with the analog data there is a selection of DEWE-CAM cameras. Further bus systems like PCM telemetry, XCP, ARINC, 1553, etc. are supported, too. DEWETRON offers the appropriate hardware for all of these. For position and speed measurements there is a choice of high performance DEWE-VGPS sensors. Or use lowcost sensor which is NMEA compatible for simple position plotting and mapping applications. DAQx modules DEWE-ORION A/D cards Sensor Database and TEDS (Technical Electronic Data Sheet) The DEWESoft ™ data acquisition software suite was developed especially for measurement technicians, thus simple sensor “connection” is a major topic. Basic settings like sensor setup are easily done. TEDS technology of newer sensors is supported on both the hardware and software side, so that all settings follow automatically, preventing user errors and saving a huge amount of time. For sensors without TEDS, there are numerous options for manual scaling as well as an integrated sensor database to make settings as efficient as possible. Video Recording A camera is a perfect sensor for many applications and a lot of people like to use it in their data acquisition. Video is a useful test documentation, providing a visual record of the test conditions and setup. I can also be used for more indepth analysis, as you can imagine. There is nothing quite like seeing your data replayed with synchronized video – this DEWETRON innovation provides a whole new level of context and understanding of your test data than you could ever imagine. 28 DEWESoft™ 3D Graph In the properties panel there is a function that allows you to edit the properties of the selected display, and to create new displays, and rearrange them. You can rename any display, and select a different icon for it. Of course you can add sub-displays to any main display. Display Screens One of the most powerful and yet easy to use aspect of DEWESoft ™ is the creation of displays. Of course a few standard displays like Recorders, Oscilloscope, FFT, Meters, Bars, 2D and 3D graphs, etc. are built-in for you. But this is only the beginning. You simply can create custom displays according to the needs of specific test. Project Setup The project files setup the measurement instruments in seconds including complete hardware setup, measurement configuration, and sensor calibration. Since DEWESoft version 7 you can create “Projects” at the hardware setup screen level, where each project contains all of the settings for any hardware that you own. You can have an unlimited number of hardware setups, which you can freely name and edit. When you start DEWESoft 7, it will automatically load the last hardware setup that you used, of course … but if you have changed the hardware, you can simply choose a different project from the “Settings” menu, and a completely different hardware setup will be loaded. Even when using the same hardware, projects allows using different folders for setup, data and exported files. So you can create John and George projects for different users and work without interfering or you can create e.g. Road-Load and DSA projects for different tasks. Recording You can control recording as simple as pressing the START, STORE and STOP buttons. But there are also versatile trigger options to e.g. only store data if a trigger event occurs or to store at a slow rate usually but store at a fast rate at a trigger event with definable pre- and post times. There is a large suite of calculation (math) functions which can be applied to any channels. Analyze – Replay, Re-calculate, Export In Analyze mode you can replay any captured data file, zoom in, make cursor measurements, print reports and export the data to a wide variety of formats, like Flexpro, Excel, Matlab, Diadem and many more. Since version 7 all the powerful math functions such as math formulas, filtering, statistics, power analysis, frequency response function, order tracking, torsional vibration, engine combustion analysis, sound analysis, human vibration analysis, and others can also be applied off-line to captured data. So you can simply store the raw data and do all the processing off-line, on any computer, anywhere. This allows you to work with the data as you were at the test bench or on the proving ground.
