• Top AE-Speed
  Stores over 30'000 AE-hits/s, full data set, filtered, time sorted (for online location calculation), sustained, to HDD.
• Top TR-Speed
  Stores over 2.5MBytes/s waveform data, filtered, time sorted, sustained, to HDD

User-friendly:

• Top Software
  Acquisition and analysis software for Windows 2000 and XP. Analysis software VisualAE™ compatible with AMS3 and AMSY4 system, familiar to numerous users world wide
• Strong and rugged connectors 
  Preamplifiers and parametric inputs as well as connection to the separate PC is by rugged connectors (BNC, Mini-Centronics) that are easily accessible.
• Status Information
  Front panel LED's give system status information, such as power on, DC power ok, threshold crossing, preamplifier not connected, calibration-mode, buffer empty/full, recording enabled/disabled, and more.
• Auto detection
  On power up the AMSY-5 automatically detects how many AMSY-5 units are connected, how many channels are present, and suggests a suited configuration.

• Combining AMSY-5
  Multiple AMSY-5 can be combined to form a large system with up to 254 fully synchronized channels.
• Top PC-Flexibility
  desktop, industrial, lunchbox, panel,... PC can easily be separated: for report work, maintenance, etc.
• Easy PC upgrading
  The external PC can be easily upgraded or exchanged to benefit from developments of the PC technology.
• NEW: Remote Control!!!
  Stay in touch with your remote AMSY-5 via internet/intranet!
  Save money by remote access: No operator is required permanently on site.
  As long as your AMSY-5 has internet access you can easily control it like sitting directly in front of it. Check the status, watch your data, have full control on data acquisition, transfer files via internet - it is reliable, convenient and easy to set use.
  AMSY-5 remote control is realized by proven components of Windows XP - you even don't need special software for it!
• Autocalibration Pulser
  Pulser with user definable voltage (up to 400Vpp) for determining the speed of sound and for checking the sensor coupling. 
• NEW: Scheduled Autocalibration!!!
  Run autocalibration at predefined times and/or intervals. This is very useful for:
  Long term monitoring (e.g.: to perform daily autocalibration to proof consistency of sensor coupling).
  To monitor changes in attenuation and/or speed of sound, e.g. with a curing process.
  To monitor sensor coupling quality. 
• Parametric Inputs 
  Can be used for cyclic load counting, voltage controlled data recording, and online threshold modification.
• Digital Parametric Inputs 
  For up/down cycle counter, data recording enable/disable, external trigger.
• Audio Monitoring Unit
  To make AE signals from selected channels audible, volume and sensitivity controls for the speaker.

Extra Economic:

• Use existing ASIPP channels
  The AMSY-5 can use the channels (ASIPPs) purchased with AMSY4 but with its full performance, e.g. 30.000 hits/s.
  This allows AMSY4 customers a very efficient upgrade as they only need the new AMSY-5 case and a new PC, because they  can use their ASIPPs as they are. We are happy that many of our customers use AMSY4 and ASIPPs for more than ten years, and are happy with it. Those who wish an economic upgrade to the state of the art AE and PC technology are encouraged to move to AMSY-5 any time.
• Use proven Analysis Software
  No new analysis software is required! VisualAE™, VisualTR™, and VisualClass™ can analyze the data format of AMS3, AMSY4 and AMSY-5.

Software:

• AMSY-5 data Acquisition runs under Windows 2000 and XP
• Software has proven and well known graphic user interface of the AMSY4
• The AMSY-5 uses Vallen VisualAE™, the leading AE analysis software:
  Location options include: linear, planar, cylindrical, spherical, multi-triplet, tank bottom & 3-D algorithms.
• Multi-tasking approach to data acquisition and analysis allows the user to add plots and change analysis parameters during the test, without disturbing data acquisition.
• On-line data filtering, clustering, user processing, labelling facility, rotatable 3-D plots, data zoom and more.

Compatibility and Continuity:

• AMSY4 ASIPP can be moved into the AMSY-5 for easy and economic upgrade.
• VisualAE™ reads AMSY-5 data.
• AMSY-5 transient data is compatible with existing pattern recognition software VisualClass™.
