    The frequency response of a filter can be classified into a number of different bandforms describing which frequency bands the filter passes (the passband) and which it rejects (the stopband). To discuss the Sirius® filtering, we only need to consider 2 types frequency response:...
  • Page 134 In Illustration 179 below you can see 3 analogue filters (2 and 8 order) and the Sirius® filter (which is a combination of analogue filter, oversampling and digital filter). Note, that filters with higher order have a sharper damping around the filter frequency:...
  • Page 135 DEWESoft® DEWESoft® HINT To get a better understanding of the aliasing effect, we recommend to take the DEWESoft® PRO training course: Spectral analysis using the FFT: http://www.dewesoft.com/pro/course/spectral-analysis-using-the-fft-29 Our professional online training courses are available free of charge to registered users of our homepage.

  • Page 136: Filter Design

    Moreover we want to have a linear phase, so we choose a FIR filter (the performance of the DSP in Sirius® is powerful enough to handle this demanding computation). Another important goal is to minimise errors introduced by aliasing. So the FIR filter alone will not be sufficient (since digital filters are subject to aliasing).

    (i.e. the effect of the aliasing is negligible). Illustration 185 below shows an overview of the components in the Sirius® DualCore and HD modules: after the amplifier there is an Analogue Filter followed by the ADC which uses oversampling and includes a Digital ADC Filter, so that we can get excellent aliasing-free measurement results: : Filtering components in Sirius®...

    The filtering described in the previous chapters is done in the Sirius® measurement hardware: it assures that the data that Sirius® passes to the DEWESoft® software is aliasing free. But you must be careful not to introduce aliasing again in software.

    We assume that the Windows 7 PC has DEWESoft® and the DEWESoft®-NET option installed. Note: you do not need to activate the DEWESoft®-NET option in DEWESoft® (and thus you also don't need to buy a valid license for the DEWESoft®-NET option) – in this example we just need the installation of the Ultra VNC server (which is automatically done when the DEWESoft®-NET option is being installed).

    Since this is such an important point, DEWESoft® offers you a wide range of possible ways to synchronise you data. To understand all the DEWESoft® features and settings, it is important to know the basics and the definition of the terms that are used in this discussion: so the following glossary should give us a sold foundation for the advanced topics that will follow.

  • Page 157 DEWESoft® 8.2.1.3 Masterclock Masterclock is a DEWESoft® term that refers to the main clock that is used to synchronise data and actions inside the DEWESoft® software. Clockmaster is another DEWESoft® term that refers to the hardware device that provides the masterclock to DEWESoft®.
  • Page 158 In the example below you see the green signal which is a Synchronous channels always have exactly one data point synchronous channels of a SIRIUS® (which is clock related to the masterclock and the time between 2 adjacent master) and 3 channels from 3 different DS-NET systems data points is always constant.

    8.2.2 Sync options When you have several measurement systems, each of those systems has it's own internal clock (e.g. 2 SIRIUS® systems). Since no real-world hardware is perfect the 2 clocks will run at slightly different speeds and thus will drift more and more apart from each other.
