| The new LX Series data acquisition and recording system from TEAC has been designed for fast set-up, reliable recording, and versatile playback for data recording applications in the field and in the laboratory. Building upon the success and convenience of TEAC DAT recorders, the LX Series enables recording of wider bandwidths, has built-in connectivity with sensors, removable solid-state digital recording media, easy and fast PC connection, and is designed to provide cost-efficient data recording and front-end solutions. |

| About LX-10 |
| Three Types of Recording Media |
Memory(from the standard 64 MB to a maximum of 576MB)achieves maximum recording rate; a PC card(Flashmemory or IBM MicrodriveTM, supports up to 2 GB capacity)
enables data recording in harsh environments; or a 3.5inch 1.3 GB MO disk is convenient for long-term media storage. |
|
| Recording Via a Maximum of 32 Channels, Recording Synchronization for 128 Channels |
By combining channel selection and input amplifier cards, you can record via 2, 4, 8, or 16 channels, or use an expansion unit to record up to 32 data channels. Up to 4 LX units can be synchronized for recordings to maximum 128 recording channels.
(Recording synchronization is an optional function.) |
|
| Simultaneous Recording to Media and PC with a Selection of Interfaces |
Either an IEEE-1394 interface or a 100BASE-TX Ethernetinterface can be selected to connect to the PC. While recording to storage media, you can transfer data to a PC in real-time and display it on the PC, process the data, or record the data to hard disk drive of the PC.
(Some information, such as events stored in a header file while recording to media, are not written to the header file while recording directly to PC.) |
|
| Higher Recording Bandwidth |
The LX Series can record 8 channels at 20 kHz bandwidth with 48 kHz sampling frequency per channel directly to the storage media, which is double the recording performance of DAT recorders. Using internal memory or transferring data to the PC in real-time, you can record 8 channels at 40 kHz bandwidth with 96 kHz sampling per channel viathe IEEE1394 interface, or 8 channels at 20 kHz bandwidthwith 48 kHz sampling via the 100BASE-TX interface.
(Using an IEEE1394 interface in the PC, as specified by TEAC. The data
transfer rate to the PC varies depending on the connected PC environment.) |
|
| DC, IEPE, Strain, and AO for I/O Amp Card in 8 Channel Units |
Three types of input amplifier cards are available; including
a DC input amp card with lower sampling rate(from 1 kHz
to 1/60 Hz), a selectable DC / IEPE accelerometer input
amp card, and a selectable DC / strain input amp card.
The available output amplifier card can output the analog
voltage during recording and can play back the analog voltage
after recording for all types of the input amp cards.
(The output amp card does not support low sampling below 1 kHz, and can
only reproduce the analog voltage within the same sampling time bases series.) |
|
| Trigger Recording |
To let you record data efficiently, various types of start and
stop trigger modes are provided. You can control the starting
or stopping of recording by using external control, level
start/stop triggers, timer recording, interval recording, timeout
start, start pre-trigger, stop post-trigger recording, or
repeat recordings.
(Some restrictions might apply to the triggers that can be used when using a
combination of triggers.) |
|
| Voice Memo Recording and Audio Playback |
You can record convenient voice memos to describe recorded
data, which simplifies later extraction. These voice
memos are recorded as WAV files separate from the recorded
data files. Data recorded from any one channel or the
voice memo can be played over the built-in speaker.

| About Lx-20 |
| Versatile Sampling Rate Series Selections for Frequency Analysis |
| In the LX-20 Series, 102.4 kHz, 65.536 kHz, and 100
kHz sampling rate series can be selected in addition
to the 96 kHz sampling rate series of the LX-10 Series,
suitable for FFT analysis data recording by using
the LX-20 as a PC front-end. |
|
| Direct Rotational Signal Inputs |
The LX-20 provides dedicated 1 x / 2 x tachometerpulse input(s)of 16-bit mode or 32-bit mode selectable.
(Using the tachometer pulse input channels lowers the maximum
sampling rate at some of the channel settings.) |
|
| Generator Output |
| A waveform generating function is provided at the
LX-20 monitor output terminal. You can record data
while generating sine waves, white noise or pink
noise. |

Maximum Recording Rate |
 |
|
| There are two types of maximum recording rates
available depending on the choice of recording media
or interface.
Record to the internal memory, or to the hard disk
drive of the PC via IEEE1394 interface:
1.536 MB/s(Example, 40 kHz bandwidth with 96 kHz
sampling rate x 8 channels) |
| Record to the MO/PC card, or to the hard disk drive
of the PC via 100BASE-TX(Peer-to-Peer connection):
0.768 MB/s(Example, 20 kHz bandwidth with 48 kHz
sampling rate x 8 channels) |
| Note: Recording rate to the hard disk drive of the PC may vary depending
on the connection and the PC specifications. |

Turning ON the tachometer pulse input consumes 1 recording channel for 16-bit mode per a single tachometer
input channel and 2 recording channels for 32-bit mode per a single tachometer input channel. |
