Series 6100 and 6000 Enclosures are common between the 2 product lines and can accommodate any combination of Series 6100 I/O Modules. Enclosures are available in a variety of sizes and a selection of AC and DC powered versions to meet the needs of laboratory and portable field applications. With USB 2.0 and Ethernet interfaces available, facility integration couldn’t be easier.
The native interface for the enclosure is USB 2.0 and can be configured for Ethernet. There are many ways to configure a system. Multiple racks can be combined to provide a single larger system or used individually to create smaller, lower channel count installations. The systems can be run locally (near a test cell) or remotely from a control room. This allows the test operators to setup, configure and calibrate the system locally near the test article and remotely while a test is in progress.
An Operator’s Workstation is the primary control and data recording point for the Series 6000 System. Typically installed in the control room, the Operator’s Workstation runs PI610 Signal Conditioning Software for system setup, calibration, display, recording, distribution and export. Multiple, distributed systems are supported and controlled through a single Operator’s Workstation. A system can even be configured and used over wireless technology, allowing even greater control over the system. For example, a technician can change gain and filter settings on a touch screen tablet style PC while performing system checkouts and test readiness.
The 6000U enclosure has 16 slots for Series 6000 input and output modules with a Universal Serial Bus (USB 2.0) computer interface for programming, control and data output. For larger systems, up to 32 enclosures may be combined using USB 2.0 hubs or a computer with multiple USB 2.0 ports. The enclosures are 8U 19-inch rack mount. The enclosures have integral fans providing air circulation and an internal cable tray that routes the input and output cables from the front of the installed modules to exit the rear of the enclosure.
A sample clock bus is provided for multi rack installations. Programming and data transfer is USB 2.0, which provides high data transfer rates with low, predictable latency. It interfaces to the USB 2.0 port provided on most PC computers including laptops. Maximum length of the interface cable is 3 meters but it may be extended further using Ethernet with the Control & Data Processor (CDP) option.
Data Redundancy is optionally available. A 2.5″ HD (Module 6095) mounts on the USB controller board in each 6000U enclosure and provides a redundant recording point for the DAS. In the unlikely event the Operators Workstation or DAS Software fails, data will continue to record in each enclosure. Data can be recovered from the system post-test.
The Control & Data Processor (CDP) interfaces multiple 6000U enclosures to gigabit Ethernet providing remote and/or distributed operation. The CDP is typically installed with the Series 6000 DAS and provides an Ethernet interface to the Operators Workstation. The CDP includes a high-speed processor and software that performs low-level operations freeing resources on the Operators Workstation computer for data display, storage, distribution and reduction.
The Operators Workstation (PCCOWU) is the primary control and data recording point for the Series 6000 DAS. The PCCOWU is typically installed in the control room and runs PI660 Data Acquisition Software for system setup, calibration, display, recording, distribution and export. In installations where the DAS is not remote from the Operators Workstation, the PCCOWU will connect directly to Series 6000 Enclosures and does not require the CDP.
The 6005U enclosure has 10 slots for Series 6000 input and output modules with a Universal Serial Bus (USB 2.0) computer interface for programming, control and data output. Multiple enclosures can be combined for larger and/or distributed installations. 6005U is DC operated for mobile applications.
All connections are made on the front allowing the 6005U to be located in the tightest of spaces. It has integral fans that supply cooling air to the modules and power supply. Power is 10 to 20 VDC with 21 to 32 VDC also available. An included power adapter is provided for operation from 120/240 VAC.
Data Redundancy is optionally available. A 2.5″ HD (Module 6095) mounts on the USB controller board in each 6005U enclosure and provides a redundant recording point for the DAS. In the unlikely event the Operators Workstation or DAS Software fails, data will continue to record in each enclosure. Data can be recovered from the system post-test.
The Operators Workstation (PCCOWU-LT) is the primary control and data recording point for the Series 6000 DAS. The PCCOWU-LT is typically a laptop, connected to the 6005U’s USB port and runs PI660 Data Acquisition Software for system setup, calibration, display, recording, distribution and export.
The 6010U enclosure has 4 slots for Series 6000 input and output modules with a Universal Serial Bus (USB2.0) computer interface for programming, control and data output. For larger systems, up to 32 enclosures may be combined using USB 2.0 hubs or a computer with multiple USB 2.0 ports. The enclosures are 3U 19-inch, rack mount or desktop. The enclosures have integral fans providing air circulation and an internal cable tray that routes the input and output cables from the front of the installed modules to exit the rear of the enclosure.

Series 9300 are fully programmable, modular signal conditioning amplifiers for use with transducers and other low-level signal sources. An on-board microprocessor automates operation, reducing setup time and assuring high-quality measurement data. Programming and control are by IEEE-488 interface using a high-level programming language or Windows software. The optional control panel enables setting and display of operating parameters locally with display of excitation voltage and current and amplifier output.
The 9355 is a transducer amplifier with a guarded 2 to 10 wire input. It has bridge completion, programmable constant voltage and constant current excitation with remote sensing and excitation interrupt, automatic balance, shunt calibration, programmable gain instrumentation amplifier and programmable filter. DAC controlled shunt calibration with 4096 steps is standard and 4-step, bipolar double resistive shunt is optional.
Within the 9355, bridge completion and calibration components mount on a plug-in, front panel installed completion card that has a holder for channel identification data. Switches on the completion card set transducer specific operating parameters and identification. Completion cards are available for special requirements such as dynamic strain, 28 Volt excitation, voltage-mode charge, input attenuation and many other standard and customer-specific applications.
Gain is programmable from 1 to 10,000 with 0.05% resolution and 32 preset steps. Ten gain steps are factory calibrated providing ±0.1% accuracy. The remaining gain steps may be user calibrated or employed as variable gains for engineering units calibration. The amplifier operates from grounded or floating sources providing 120-dB rejection for common mode voltages to ±300 Volts.
Buffered Data and Tape outputs supply ±10 Volts full scale. Each output may be selected for wideband or filtered response. The standard filter is a four-pole, Bessel low-pass with eight programmable bandwidths and wideband. Output and excitation can be read over the computer interface and on the optional control panel. The control panel sets and displays excitation, gain and filter; controls balance, zero, calibration and input modes and displays the output and excitation voltage or current level.
Channels may be programmed individually or as a group using IEEE-488 or RS232. Adapters are available for Ethernet. Programmed operating parameters are kept in non-volatile memory and are automatically restored when the system is powered up or reset. PACWin93 control and display software is optionally available for operation under Windows 2000/XP. User programming is supported by a high-level instruction set and National Instruments LabView driver. PI660 software includes a feature for programming the 9355s when used as the front end for Pacific’s Series 6000 data acquisition system.
Ten channels, each with integral isolated power supply, mount in a 7-inch high rack enclosure. Multiple enclosures can accommodate up to 160 channels on each bus address. Interface adapters are available for Ethernet and USB 2.0.
