Powerful SBOX computer built-in
At the heart of the SIRIUS® R2 and R4 data acquisition systems is a powerful SBOXse computer. The computers are powered by an Intel® Core CPU, powerful enough even for the most demanding signal processing tasks:
SIRIUS® R2: Intel Core i7 CPU.
SIRIUS® R4: Intel Core i7 CPU.
SBOX computer is equipped with 8 GB of memory and is optionally upgradeable to 32 GB. A fast internal SSD drive provides reliable storage for long-term and high-speed data recording.
The SBOX computer is also equipped with modern connectivity interfaces:
Network interfaces: 2x GLAN, 1x WLAN.
USB 3.0: 4x USB 3.0 ports for data acquisition devices like SIRIUS, DEWE-43A, and peripherals like mouse, keyboard, printers, and external hard drives.
EtherCAT expansion port: for expanding input channels with any of our EtherCAT-based data acquisition systems such as KRYPTON, IOLITE, or SIRIUSe.
HDMI video: for connecting an external display.
GPS/GNSS receiver (optional): 10 Hz or 100 Hz GNSS receiver with an option to connect external GPS display or to an RTK base station.
Battery powered with built-in Li-ion batteries
SIRIUS® R1DB and R2DB DAQ systems have built-in Li-Ion batteries that enable full autonomy without any external power supply. This makes both systems to be truly portable data acquisition systems.
