DATS™ is a comprehensive package of data acquisition and signal processing tools. DATS™ offers outstanding value both in cost and productivity gains. Many man-years of signal processing expertise have been spent on DATS™ during its 30 years of development. DATS™ software has proved itself time and time again in diverse and demanding applications around the world.
 

Because Prosig manufactures both the hardware and software, DATS™ is fully integrated with the Prosig P8000 series hardware. The data acquisition software in DATS™ contains everything needed to view, calibrate, monitor, and store your data.
 

DATS™ software has an unparalleled depth of signal processing functions. The DATS.toolbox package contains:
 

• Data capture
   
• Time domain analysis
   
• Frequency domain analysis
   
• Filtering
   
• Report generation
   
• Statistics
   
• Calculus
   
• Trigonometry
   
• Statistical counting
   
• Signal manipulation
   
• Signal arithmetic
   
• Data import & export
   

As well as capturing data using the P8000, DATS™ can be used on data from a huge range of sources using its unique import and export filters.
 

The DATS™ environment offers a rich selection of different graph styles to view and explore your data. 2D styles include lines, bars, symbols, x v y graphs, bode plots, polar plots, modulus & phase and so on. For more complex applications there 3D styles such as isometric, coloured surface, waterfall, contour, colormaps, intensity plots etc.
 

All of the capture, import/export, analysis and graph functions can be easily combined using the DATS Visual Scripting interface. Functions can be configured as necessary using a simple icon based interface. Visual Scripts can contain complex structures such as loops, if conditions as well as using forms and producing reports.
 

For programmers, DATS™ comes with a built in BASIC scripting language. This can be used to automate any part of the DATS™ processing mechanism. Scripts can contain data capture, data import, analyses, user input forms, graphical results, report generation and data export. DATS™ BASIC Scripts also support OLE automation for seamless integration with other products such as Microsoft Office. Visual and BASIC Scripts can both be used for creating turn-key test systems and end-of-line testing applications.
 

The Intaglio Report Generator makes it easy to produce top quality reports time after time. It uses the powerful OLE technology built in to Windows to add DATS™ graphs and other related information (numbers, labels and text) to standard Microsoft Word documents. Intaglio used a system of templates that, once created, can be used over and over again.
 

DATS.toolbox comes with all of the functionality mentioned above. In addition, a number of add-on software options are available.
