MicroStrain`s (www.microstrain.com) G-Link® -mXRS™ combines triaxial accelerometers, embedded processing, wireless communications, and precision timekeeping with extended range capabilities to measure acceleration, vibration, and tilt.

Combining triaxial accelerometers, embedded processing, wireless communications, and precision timekeeping, G-Link® -mXRS™ wireless nodes operate within a fast, synchronized, scalable network of wireless sensor nodes located up to 1 km from our WSDA® -Base. G-Link® -mXRS™ nodes include an internal rechargeable Li-Ion battery and measure accelerations, vibrations, and tilt angles with its embedded accelerometers.

At the heart of MicroStrain`s extended range synchronized (mXRS™) system is the WSDA® -Base, which uses our exclusive beaconing protocols to synch precision timekeepers embedded within each sensor node in the network. The WSDA® -Base also coordinates data collection from all sensor nodes, including G-Link® -mXRS™. Users can easily program each node on the scalable network for simultaneous, periodic, or burst mode sampling with our Node Commander® software, which then automatically configures network radio communications to maximize the aggregate sample rate.

Features and Benefits:

? Support for hundreds of simultaneous sampling wireless sensor nodes
? Node to node synchronization of +/- 32 microseconds
? Ultra-stable on-board precision timing reference of +/- 3 ppm over industrial  

  temperature range
? Extended wireless communication range to 1 km
