T7 Multifunction Data Aquisition Unit

Choose the T7 series for ultimate flexibility. With 16 to 24-bit analog inputs, the option to use USB, Ethernet, or WiFi, and numerous built-in firmware features, the T7 Series can help you accomplish nearly any data acquisition need.

It's great for acquiring signals from virtually any kind sensor, and can serve that sensor data out through any of its 3 communication interfaces. With instrumentation amplified inputs, software selectable gain settings, dozens of digital I/O features, and a Modbus TCP front-end, the T7 Series is our most versatile multifunction DAQ platform. Common applications include laboratory research, industrial control and monitoring, and prototype development. Additionally, the T7 series devices are capable of stand-alone operation by running Lua Scripts.
