Description:

DAS-Wizard is a an Add-in for Excel that control your Measurement Computing or compatible data acquisition board and places your measurements directly into the cells of an Excel worksheet. A simple dialog box allows you to configure the data acquisition board and set the range of cells to place measurements in.

Surveys repeatedly show that Excel is the preferred software for analysis of measurements. Typing those measurements into a spreadsheet is time consuming and error prone. Writing a conversion program requires programming skills. With DAS-Wizard your measurements go directly to Excel cells in a spreadsheet. The data can be in the format of A/D counts, volts or temperature. A/D counts may be converted into any type of engineering units using the formulas in Excel, which you already know how to use.

DAS-Wizard is easy to use. First choose the type of acquisition or control you want to execute. The choices are:

Analog Input or Output

Digital Input or Output

Temperature Logging

The choices available will be limited to the features available on your data acquisition board.

Give your choice a custom name, provide a description (which can be saved with the spreadsheet) if you want to.
