GEN3i is a multi
-
channel Portable data recorder. It provides real
-
time data for
waveform and meter displays. It allows unlimited recording duration and file
size at a high streaming rate. Statistics are performed in real
-
time. Its extreme
performance signal conditioning includes both Bessel and Butterworth anti
-
alias filters to provide excellent response.

It also functions as a transient recorder with a hardware trigger on all channels
with hysteresis, delay and logic features. Transient memory is huge and can
capture minutes of data on all channels. Segmented sweeps are displayed with
no dead time and the recorder has a wide analog bandwidth.

Most PC
-
based DAQ systems can easily acquire megabytes of data. But even
the most powerful PC is poorly equipped to display and process files of
megabytes or gigabytes. In fact, most DAQ systems fail to display over 99% of
live data! The exclusive StatStream

technology accelerates all aspects of a
measurement task with dedicated hardware and firmware.
