LX-100Series data accquisition and recording system. TEAC has been desined for fast set-up,reliable recording applications in the field and in the laboratory. Building upon the success and convenience of TEAC DAT recorders,
the LX-100Series enables recording of wider bandwidths,has built-in connectivity with sensors, removable solid-state digtal recording media,easy and fast PC connection,and is desigened to provide cost-efficient data recording and front-end solutions.

Main features
Possible to record longer using high capacity CF card
FAT32 file system for large capacity card Up to 8GB card can be used at the moment.(As of March, 2008)
It achieves 100dB dynamic range by 24 bits AD*
(*PA amp 10V range.)
Records voltage, sound, vibration and strain from DC to 40kHz bandwidth
Records in TAFFmat data format.
Supports various popular analysis software formats
The recording format is TAFFmat which is compatible with Windows file system and it is commonly used by TEAC Digital Data Recorders. The TAFFmat data file can be read by LX View software and by many other popular analytical software applications.
General analysis software(Commercial product)

  • DADiSP/2002
  • ME'scope Visual Engineering Series
Up to 128 channels of synchronous recording
LX-100 Up to 32 data channels can be recorded using an expansion unit.
Up to four LX-100 units can be synchronized to achieve as much as 128 recording channels.
(Recording synchronization is an oputinal fanction)
The wideband multi channel recording
20kHz×8channels.It's twice the bandwidth as a DAT recorder provides.   *16bits AD mode
The analog monitor output is available during recording.
Time base conversion is possible in playback.
Through a remote control unit (stand-alone) or PC (LX Navi software), the LX-100 Series can be fully controlled
Trigger recording Voice Memo recording
A voice memo can be recorded, which simplifies the future data searches. Trigger recording offers the pre-trigger, level-trigger, the repeat and interval recording.
AQ-VU is a visual data recorder with which 4-channels of video and analog signals can be synchronously recorded
AQ-VU AQ-VU is a visual data recorder with which 4-channels of video and analog signals can be synchronously recorded and played back.
By synchronizing LX-100 series data recorder with AQ-VU, a variety of data measurements are possible.
