Data Logging

Able to log all available data once per second every moment the chamber is turned on, the russellsOne® can quickly load and display data from dozens of sensors over time frames ranging from seconds to months.

  • Multiple decades’ worth of always-on storage available
  • Solid State Drive (standard) provides data reliability over long spans of time
  • Easily export test data to be used in spreadsheet programs such as Excel
  • Reliable machine control over Ethernet when the operator and machine section need to be separated by a long distance

Our russellsOne® controller puts the user in control. From “just press start” to lab manager, you have the information you need complete testing confidently.

  • Access levels determine who has access to the various sections in the controller.
  • Activity logger lists when important events occur – and who was logged in when it did.
  • Because all data is always logged, you can diagnose potential problems before they become expensive problems.

We designed the russellsOne® from the ground up to fit into any chamber or console configuration. The small form factor of a tablet computer (standard) allows it to be mounted in a wide variety of configurations. The russellsOne® can be configured at the factory to meet the needs of just about any chamber—specialized math, control algorithms, safety backups—yet maintain a familiar operating interface, no matter the job.

  • Up to 4 control channels for standard configurations, but ready for more for complicated systems.
  • Up to 128 total analog inputs available, expandable upon request!
  • Reliable machine control over Ethernet or remote connectivity when the operator and machine section need to be separated by a long distance.
