Problematic network stacks Often intrusive IT software or network processes can interfere with the primary function of the DEWETRON system: to record data. Therefore we recommend strongly against the installation of IT/MIS software and running their processes on any DEWETRON data acquisition system, and cannot guarantee the performance of our systems if they are so configured.
Connect your sensors to the system. Run DEWESoft usually via "Start" >"Programs" > "Dewetron" > "DEWESoft x.x" > "DEWESoft x.x" Start recording your data! All accessories shown in this document are available as option and will not be shipped as standard parts. These parts are described as "option".

Synchronization of DEWE2 2.2 Defi nition of a Main system For simplifi cation the following confi guration is defi ned as "Main system". With this main system it is possible to synchronize to all DEWE2 series instruments as well as ORION DAQ based systems (ORION- 0816-xxx, ORION-1616-xxx) in conjunction with a TRION-BASE module, explained in the following chapters of this technical reference manual.
"AUX" on the front panel. It is possible to route some signals to SMB connector, e.g. Video, Trigger, Acquisition clock, Frequency or PPS. For more details please refer to chapter: "Synchronziation options in DEWESoft™ (Part II) DE-M120607E • DEWE2-M13 • Technical Reference Manual • Printing version 1.0.1 • May 05, 2015...
Synchronization of DEWE2 2.4 Synchronization options in DEWESoft™ (part I) This chapter will give a detailed explanation of the synchronization options in DEWESoft™ and will describe the function of the LEDs of the TRION-SYNC-BUS and the IRIG-sync option. With this option the internal 10 MHz clock is used as the clock source in this particular DEWE2 system. The TRION-SYNC-BUS (SYNC I/O, SYNC OUT) is used to synchronize two or more DEWE2 systems with up to 100 m distance between each node.
The following examples will explain the principle of "NET" option: SYNC SYNC Main system Main system Main system DATA VIA DATA VIA WLAN WLAN Schematic representation: daisy chaining DE-M120607E • DEWE2-M13 • Technical Reference Manual • Printing version 1.0.1 • May 05, 2015...

Synchronization of DEWE2 2.8 Synchronization of DEWE2 devices with ORION-DAQ series boards With the new DEWE2 devices it is also possible to synchronize with older DEWETRON instruments using DEWE-ORION-0816-xxx or DEWE-ORION-1616-xxx series A/D boards. This option requires a TRION-BASE /-TIMING module in the DEWE2 instrument and at least a "Digital I/O" connector or ORION-SYNC interface at the DEWETRON instrument.
