VWStalker Vibrating Wire Interface
Product Information
PRODUCT INFORMATION:
The VW Stalker is a compact and efficient datalogger designed to read vibrating wire (VW) and temperature sensors, transferring data wirelessly to a secure web portal. The VW Stalker is Ideal for geotechnical and structural monitoring, it ensures reliable data collection along with easy to use remote access. VW sensors are read using the Zero Crossing method by utilizing standard SDI12 communication protocols, the VWStalker can be interfaced with many different data acquisition units, including the WASP & Campbell Scientific loggers.
PRODUCT FEATURES:
- 4 VW sensors with thermistor
- Automatic data upload to the WASP web portal
- Stores thousands of data points locally to prevent data loss during communication breaks
- Internal battery life of up to 3 years
- Each VW port is configured to match the frequency range of the sensor using the VWstalker Programmer
- Internal battery
- The VWStalker allows users to “talk” to a “VW” sensor using the SDI12 protocol. Hence, the moniker: VWStalker
- VW sensors are read using the Zero Crossing method
- By utilizing standard SDI12 communication protocols, the VWStalker can be interfaced with many different data acquisition units, including the WASP & Campbell Scientific loggers.
