Dynamic Measurement System with Dual Antenna GPSDMS-EGP02 Description: Originally developed to meet the needs of automotive testing professionals, the Dynamic Measurement System (DMS) was designed for monitoring the drive and handling characteristics of vehicles. The DMS may be used in almost any application where triaxial angular rate and triaxial acceleration data is required. These are available in analog and digital output formats. The DMS features six accelerometer outputs. The X, Y, and Z axis outputs represent the accelerations in the plane of the vehicle body, while the second set of three outputs measure the acceleration aligned with an earth-level coordinate system. This allows forward and lateral acceleration measurements that are essentially free of gravity influences. The triaxial sensor set allows software alignment of sensors, greatly reducing any alignment errors. The serial interface is highly configurable and provides access to almost all operational parameters. The DMS-EGP02 is designed for vehicle applications where accurate heading is required, but a magnetic compass is infeasible. This sensor is equipped with a dual GPS antenna system that provides heading data even when the vehicle is not in motion. The addition of the GPS antennas also gives vehicle velocity data to the DMS that enhances the unit's performance during highly dynamic maneuvers such as sharp turns. This makes the DMS-EGP02 inertial gyro sensor a more complete system since it does not require velocity information to be supplied from an external sensor. • Solid State, Strap Down System • Six Accelerometer Outputs • GPS Heading Reference • Rugged, High Reliability • Vibration Resistant • Analog and RS-232 Serial Outputs • Two Year Limited Warranty • Engineering Support Applications: The DMS-EGP02 is useful in automotive testing, vehicle dynamics, and marine applications. This sensor can be used as a replacement for the Watson IMU-E604, and is most useful in applications where magnetic fields make heading data from a fluxgate magnetometer unreliable.
