National Instruments Introduces Smart Sensor Web Seminar Series
7/7/2004 - National Instruments and leading sensor vendors announce a free smart sensor Web seminar series, “Talk with the Expert,” on ni.com beginning in July. At these interactive events, experts discuss the industry impact of Transducer Electronic Data Sheet (TEDS) technology and demonstrate how to take a wide variety of measurements using Sensors Plug&Play products based on the recently passed IEEE 1451.4 standard. Participants in these events learn how to incorporate smart sensors into their measurement systems to simplify setup and increase accuracy. These “Talk with the Expert” seminars include:
- Measuring Acceleration Using TEDS Sensors
Participants learn how to increase accuracy and simplify sensor system setup with applications for TEDS accelerometers, as well as how to automate measurements with NI LabVIEW graphical programming software and Sensors Plug&Play products.
Presented by Endevco, Dallas Semiconductor, National Instruments
Date: July 21, 2004
Time: 11:00 a.m. CST - Measuring Pressure and Temperature
Attendees learn how to choose the right pressure or resistance detector temperature transducer for any application, the measurement considerations to take into account when working with these sensors and ways TEDS technology benefits temperature and pressure measurements.
Presented by Honeywell Sensotec, Weed Instrument, National Instruments
Date: July 28, 2004
Time: 11:00 a.m. CST - Acceleration and Temperature Measurements
Engineers and scientists taking physical measurements such as acceleration or temperature learn how to select the correct sensor for a customized application and how Sensors Plug&Play products affect these types of sensors as well as data acquisition systems.
Presented by Kistler, Watlow, National Instruments
Date: Aug. 4, 2004
Time: 11:00 a.m. CST - Making Acoustic Measurements with TEDS Sensors
