catman DAQ Software

Are you faced with a challenging measurement task and need software that offers more than just data acquisition? catman data acquisition software (DAQ) allows for data visualization, analysis and storage during the measurement and reporting after.

Configure catman to fully meet your requirements and benefit from using the software’s extensive range of functions. Whether it is in mobile road tests, testing of components in test benches, monitoring tasks or research: catman DAQ software is up to any challenge.

Data Analysis Made Easy

  • Individually visualize and control on multiple pages, screens or in full-screen format
  • Visualize signals in the time, frequency or angular range
  • Integrate up to four video signals
  • Visualize GPS data on maps
  • Trigger automated actions by defined events such as email alert or smart phone push message
  • Use auto sequences to automate work flows and test sequences
  • Use VBA script to automate analyses and advanced functions
  • Save data with up to 12 MS/s or 100 MB/s
  • Record two parallel measurement tasks and statistics log
  • Use signal analysis to define smart triggers
  • Multiple formats for storage and export available (catman BIN, Excel, ASCII, MDF 3/4, DIAdem, MATLAB, RPC III, UFF58, etc.)
  • Compare data sets, compute and analyze signals

Never miss an event again with HBM Push

Get the new App HBM Push on your mobile device and never miss an important event again. For long-term monitoring of any kind, especially the monitoring of bridges, railways or test benches etc., you can define events of your interest in catman. Whenever one of these events occurs, you’ll get a HBM Push message.

A Valuable Tool for Any Application

Mobile DAQ

  • Acquire vehicle bus and analog measured data in parallel and synchronously
  • Integrate GPS, wheel force sensor and video data
  • Assign events by date and place to video, data stream and map
  • Perform online data counting using rainflow and time-at-level
  • Acquisition, display and analysis of CAN raw data
  • Support of CCP/XCP communication

Durability Testing

  • Reduce data through cyclic memory module, cycle counter, range pair counting and Rainflow analysis
  • Peak valley detection
  • Strain gauge rosette calculation
  • In particular for large structures (with up to 20,000 channels)

Functional Testing
