DATAMANAGER Universal Testing Software

82-SW/DM
PC software suitable for data acquisition, processing, filing and printout of
customized test certificates. LAN cable included.
The DATAMANAGER software is especially designed for data acquisition
and report of compression, flexure and indirect tensile tests performed on
different type of specimens and materials.
It allows live readings of load, strength and elapsed time, real
time display of load/time graph
and data storage using a database system, thus previous tests
can be quickly and easily recalled
for reviewing or creating customized MS Excel reports.
In addition, by connecting the
PC to our digital readout unit
mod. 82-P0801/E (or 82-P0804/E)
and suitable load cells, it will be
possible to perform via software
automatic calibration procedure
including data acquisition and
printing of traceable calibration
certificates.
