Mid-Frequency Portable Data Acquisition System

Amendment No. 1 8/29/2011 - Request for Proposal Letter, date that proposals are due has been changed from August 30, 2011 to September 7, 2011. Request for Proposal 231931-EM-11 - The requirement is for a mid-frequency (>= 20KHz sample rate) ruggedized portable 48 channel data acquisition system (DAS)as described in our Exhibit B "Specification". The primary use for the system will be to record accelerometers. Specifically it must handle Entran EGE-73A, Endevco 7264B, and Endevco 65-10 sensors. The system must support an initial 48 Channels, and be expandable to 72 channels. The system should be able to support other modules to record thermocouples, audio, standard voltage inputs (±100mV to ±10V DC), piezoelectric and Integrated Circuit Piezoelectric (ICP) sensors. The system should be programmable and able to run without a connected PC or network. The system should be controllable from a standard WinXP or Win7 PC or Laptop, and data should be downloadable to the PC/Laptop, via standard Ethernet connection or removable flash memory device. The control software should allow for simple configuration of the system, download and quick-look at data, and export of the data and configuration parameters to ASCII and Matlab formats at a minimum.
