TY - JOUR AB - ‘Strain’, May I988 equal facility. Outputs provide analogue and digital signals for control and stimulation of external equipment. A whole range of benefits are derived from replacing Orion’s magnetic cartridge system by a 3iin disk unit. By its very nature faster than tape, the new storage medium allows the data capture capability of the Orion to be fully exploited for the first time. An improvement of 33% means that results can now be logged to disk at a speed of up to 200 readings per second. In addition, the 34in disk is a transportable medium supporting both MSDOS and HPLIF, allowing direct transfer of Orion data written in ASCII to the vast majority of computers supporting the medium and enhancing Orion’s suitability for remote site applications. A further benefit that accrues from adoption of disk storage is capability to record and replay simultaneously. Special purpose versions of the new Series 3531 Orion, optimised as computer front ends, offer identical interfacing capability (RS232 standard, IEEE488 and RS422 optional), programming and measurement facilities, etc. in a highly cost-effective package.
