General Description
The Data Acquisition and Control Interface (DACI) is a versatile USB peripheral enclosed in a half-size EMS
module. The DACI is intended to be used with the LVDAC-EMS software. Together, the DACI and LVDAC-EMS
provide a complete set of modern computer-based instruments to measure, observe, analyze, and control
electrical and mechanical parameters. The provided instruments include voltmeters, ammeters, power meters,
frequency meters, efficiency meters, impedance meters, power factor meters, energy meters, torque and speed
meters, an oscilloscope, a phasor analyzer, a harmonic analyzer, and a spectrum analyzer. The DACI and LVDAC-
EMS also allow manual and timed data recording. The recorded data can be saved to files in any specified
location, graphically represented with the provided graph plotting tool, and exported into a spreadsheet
application.
The DACI and LVDAC-EMS can also be used with the Four-Quadrant Dynamometer/Power Supply, Model 8960,
to implement a variety of control functions for advanced training in various fields of electricity and new energy,
including electric power technology, ac/dc rotating machines, renewable energy, transmission lines, and power
electronics.

Data Acquisition and Control Interface, LabVolt Series

The DACI performs data acquisition to feed raw signal data to the LVDAC-EMS computer based instruments, and
it performs various types of control functions, mainly to control the electronic switches of the IGBT Chopper/
Inverter module, Model 8837, or those of the Power Thyristors module, Model 8841.
To activate data acquisition for a specific computer-based instrumentation function, a license for this function
must be ordered for each DACI on which the function is to be used. Similarly, to activate a specific control
function, a license for this function must be ordered for each DACI on which the function is to be used.
The firmware (program used to run the microcontroller) of the DACI can be upgraded anytime by using the
device firmware upgrade (DFU) included with the latest version of LVDAC-EMS available on the Festo Didactic
website.
The DACI and the LVDAC-EMS software are standard features in the Electric Power Technology Training Systems,
Series 8010, and in the Computer-Assisted 0.2 kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8006.
The DACI and the LVDAC-EMS software can also be excellent add-ons to several other training systems, such as:

• 0.2 kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8001


• 2 kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8013
• 0.2 kW Power Electronics Training System, Model 8032
• 0.2 kW Electric Power Transmission Training System, Model 8055
• 2 kW Electric Power Transmission Training System, Model 8059

Note: each DACI, Model 9063-0X, must be ordered with at least one function license (e.g., the Computer-Based
Instrumentation Function Set, Model 9069-1) unless it is an extension module to another Model 9063-xx which
has a control function that needs an extension module (like the Three-Phase PWM Rectifier/Inverter Control
Function Set, Model 9069-5, or the High-Voltage DC Transmission System Control Function, Model 9069-7).

Model 9063 – Data Acquisition and Control Interface


The Data Acquisition and Control
Interface (DACI) performs two main
functions: data acquisition feeding raw
signal data to the computer-based
instruments, and data acquisition for
implementing a control function. Each
DACI can perform these two functions
at the same time. However, when a
complex control function is implemented, the DACI stops data acquisition for the computer-based instruments
and performs only data acquisition for the control function.
The DACI has four isolated, high-level voltage inputs and four isolated, high-level current inputs. All these
inputs are fitted with 4 mm banana safety jacks to make connections to electric power circuits quick, safe, and
easy. The DACI also has eight low-level, analog inputs which allow measurement of other circuit parameters.
Two of these inputs can be used to measure torque and speed using a dynamometer (Model 8960-1 or 8960-2).
Finally, the DACI is provided with three digital inputs which can be monitored through the LVDAC-EMS software.
Two of these digital inputs are used as an incremental encoder input (A-B) for speed measurement and the third
input is used for synchronization. The eight low-level analog inputs and the three digital inputs are all fitted with
miniature (2 mm) safety banana jacks to avoid accidental connection to high-level outputs.
The DACI has a parallel digital output which can be used to control power electronics modules like the IGBT
Chopper/Inverter, Model 8837, and the Power Thyristors, Model 8841. This output can also be used to control
other types of modules. The parallel digital output provides TTL-level signals on a 9-pin, D-type connector. The
DACI includes two additional digital outputs that also provide TTL-level signals. The DACI also includes two
software-programmable analog outputs which can be used to control a dynamometer or a power electronics
module. The two additional digital outputs and the two analog outputs are all fitted with miniature (2 mm)
safety banana jacks. All inputs and outputs of the DACI are protected against improper connections and
overvoltage/ overcurrent conditions.
The user guide included with the DACI provides detailed information about the module operation.
Interconnection between the DACI and the personal computer running software LVDAC-EMS is through a
standard USB cable included with the module.
To activate the data acquisition for any instrumentation function, a license for that specific instrumentation
function must be ordered for each DACI that will be used with the instrumentation function. Similarly, to activate
the data acquisition for any specific control function, a license for that specific function, must be ordered for
each DACI that will be used to perform this control function.

Model Variants
The DACI is available in several model variants. Each variant has a unique combination of functions pre-
activated in its hardware. The available model variants are listed in the following table. Other model variants will
be added to the table as they become available.

Data Acquisition and Control Interface, LabVolt Series

DACIs with a specific combination of pre-activated functions other than those listed above can also be ordered.
To order a customized DACI, request DACI Model 9063-0 (DACI with no functions pre-activated) and state each
function (Model 9069-X) you wish to be pre-activated.
It is important to know that LVDAC-EMS can accept more than one Data Acquisition and Control interface
connected through USB on a single computer. When connected to the same computer, two DACIs will share their
control functions. It means, for instance, that in the High-Voltage DC Transmission System application which
requires two DACIs to control two separate Power Thyristors modules, Model 8841-2, you would only need one
DACI that has the High-Voltage DC (HVDC) Transmission System Control Function Set, Model 9069-7, activated.
Then, any other DACI connected to the same computer will be able to use the shared control function as well.

LVDAC-EMS Software
The LVDAC-EMS software is a freeware which can be downloaded anytime from the Festo Didactic website
(www.labvolt.com). The LVDAC-EMS software is a user-friendly tool that facilitates the use of the various
functions which can be implemented with USB peripherals such as the Data Acquisition and Control Interface
(DACI), Model 9063, and the Four-Quadrant Dynamometer / Power Supply, Model 8960-2.
The LVDAC-EMS software also includes a firmware update for the DACI. When a DACI is connected to a newer
version of LVDAC-EMS, the user can easily update the module using a simple update wizard.

Data Acquisition and Control Interface, LabVolt Series

LVDAC-EMS Functions
The functions that are currently available for the DACI, Model 9063, are described below. All functions can be
activated in any DACI by purchasing a license for that specific function and then performing the upgrade
procedure on the DACI. New functions will be added to this datasheet as they become available.

Instrumentation Functions
The instrumentation functions of LVDAC-EMS replace a multitude of actual data acquisition devices (e.g.,
voltmeters, ammeters, oscilloscopes, synchroscopes) with a series of computer-based instruments that display
the data measured by the DACI. The instrumentation functions currently available in LVDAC-EMS are described
below.

Model 9069-1 – Computer-Based Instrumentation Function


The Computer-Based Instrumentation Function, Model 9069-1, includes the following computer-based
instruments:

• Metering
• Data Table and Graph
• Oscilloscope
• Phasor Analyzer
• Harmonic Analyzer

The Metering window displays up to


eighteen meters that can be
configured to measure a multitude of
parameters (e.g., voltage, current,
active power, reactive power, apparent
power, efficiency, impedance, power
factor, frequency, energy, torque,
speed, mechanical power, phase
Metering angle, phase shift). The name of each
meter can be edited to identify the measured circuit parameter. The voltage and current meters have several
modes of operation that allow measurement of the mean (DC) value, RMS value, crest factor, RMS value of a
particular harmonic (up to the 15th), RMS value of the harmonics, and total harmonic distortion (THD). The
layout of the meters in the Metering window can be customized by the user.

Data Acquisition and Control Interface, LabVolt Series

The Oscilloscope can display up to


eight waveforms simultaneously. Each
waveform is of a different color for
easy identification. Each channel has
independent vertical controls similar
to those found on conventional
oscilloscopes. An automatic scale
setting function allows the sensitivity
of each channel to be set
automatically according to the
magnitude of the observed parameter.
The time base and trigger controls are
similar to those found on most
Oscilloscope oscilloscopes. The RMS value, average
value, and frequency of each of the
observed parameters can be displayed in a table in the Oscilloscope window. Two vertical cursors can be
activated to perform precise measurements at particular points on the displayed waveforms. The Oscilloscope
has two memory channels for saving the displayed waveforms.

The innovative Phasor Analyzer


displays the phasors related to
measured voltages and currents
instead of the values and waveforms
related to these voltages and currents.
The Phasor Analyzer allows circuit
voltages and currents to be monitored
easily for relative amplitudes and
phase differences simply by looking at
their respective phasors. This
Phasor Analyzer produces a unique and dynamic
display of the voltages and currents in a circuit (especially in three-phase circuits) that cannot be obtained with
conventional instruments. The RMS value, phase angle, and frequency of the voltage or current related to each
phasor are displayed in a table in the Phasor Analyzer window.

Data Acquisition and Control Interface, LabVolt Series

The Harmonic Analyzer allows


observation and analysis of the
harmonic components in the
measured voltages and currents. The
fundamental frequency can either be
set to the ac power network frequency,
manually by the user, or automatically
to the frequency of the fundamental
component of the selected voltage or
current. The number of harmonic
Harmonic Analyzer components displayed can be varied
between 5 and 40. The harmonic components of the selected voltage or current can be displayed using a
vertical scale graduated in either absolute or relative values. Various vertical scale settings are available. A
group of data displays in the Harmonic Analyzer indicates the values of the dc component, fundamental
component, and harmonic components of the selected voltage or current, as well as the total harmonic
distortion (THD). Vertical and horizontal cursors can be activated to perform precise measurements at particular
points on the display.

The values indicated by the meters or


indicators of all computer-based
instruments and control functions (see
later in this section for more detail
about control functions) in LVDAC-EMS
can be recorded in the Data Table
window. A timer option is provided to
help record data at specific time
intervals. The values recorded in the
Data Table can be saved to a file. The
recorded data can also be used to plot
graphs by selecting which
parameter(s) to plot in the Graph
window. This allows lab results to be
plotted quickly and easily. More
Data Table and Graph complex graphs can be created by
exporting the contents of the Data
Table window to any popular spread sheet program, such as Microsoft® Excel®.

Model 9069-C – Synchroscope Function


The Synchroscope Function is used for
the synchronization of synchronous
generators. This function emulates the
operation of an actual synchroscope
by showing on-screen the dial
indicating the phase angle difference
between the generator voltage and the
network voltage. In addition, the
Synchroscope Function includes
meters displaying various parameters
important to generator
synchronization (e.g., network voltage
and frequency, generator voltage and
frequency, voltage difference between
the network and the generator).

Control Function Sets


Several sets of computer-based
functions (function sets) allowing
control of power electronics modules
can be activated in the DACI. Each
control function in a set allows the
implementation of a power electronics
device or system. Control of any of the
required power electronics modules is
achieved by first connecting the DACI
to both the host computer (via a USB
connection) and to the required power
electronics module, and accessing the
desired control function via the LVDAC-
EMS software running on the host
computer. Each control function has a
specific set of user-friendly controls for
easy operation of the device
Example of a control function window. implemented (see figure on the right
for an example of a control function
window).

Data Acquisition and Control Interface, LabVolt Series

Each control function also gives access


to one or more schematic and
connection diagrams (see figure on the
right for an example of a connection
diagram) that show all connections
required to implement the device. The
switching and/or firing signals
necessary to control the implemented
device are produced by the DACI and
routed to the power electronics
module used. The control function sets
currently available in LVDAC-EMS are
described in the following pages.

Together, the DACI and the LVDAC-EMS software allow training in various areas such as electric power
technology, ac/dc machines, renewable energy, transmission lines, and power electronics using modern and
versatile measuring instruments and control functions. LVDAC-EMS also offers the possibility to use pre-built
SCADA interfaces for several applications to ease the view and understanding of the process taking place. The
user guide provided allows students to quickly become familiar with the instruments and control functions
available.
Model 9063-0 includes only the DACI, Model 9063, with no control function set activated. This enables the user
to customize the DACI by individually picking the computer-based instruments and control function sets that he
wants to activate in the DACI.
Alternately, variant 9063-0 is also used in several courses as an extension module. This means that it is used in
conjunction to another DACI in which particular control function sets are activated. Both DACIs are connected to
a single computer running LVDAC-EMS. When used in such a way, variant 9063-0 shares all control function sets
activated in the other DACI. For example, if the Computer-Based Instrumentation Function, Model 9069-1, and
the Three-Phase PWM Rectifier/Inverter Control Function Set, Model 9069-5, are activated in the other DACI,
these function sets will also be available in variant 9063-0. This enables the user to perform courses requiring
the use of more than one DACI without having to activate the same control function sets in all DACIs.

SCADA for LVDAC-EMS (Optional)
8094377 (8973-00)
Education in electrical engineering at Festo Didactic is largely
based on our unique electric power technology training
platform, which combines hardware, software, and courseware
to allow study of electrical energy.
At the heart of the systems are the data acquisition and control
interface (DACI) and the four-quadrant dynamometer/power
supply. When used in combination with LVDAC-EMS software
program, students have access to a complete set of computer-
based instruments to measure, observe, analyze, and control

41 © Festo Didactic
Data Acquisition and Control Interface, LabVolt Series

electrical and mechanical parameters of a workstation on their computers.


Our state-of-the-art training platform has just been enhanced through the integration of a new SCADA-EMS
feature, a software program designed to run in combination with LVDAC-EMS. SCADA-EMS transforms LVDAC-
EMS and the workstation’s computer into a local workstation that can be monitored and controlled over a local
network from a supervisory computer. Using the OPC Server protocol, SCADA-EMS enables users to design their
own interface by calling the different applications running on the local workstations.

LVDAC-EMS
The LVDAC-EMS software is a freeware which can be downloaded anytime from the Festo Didactic website
(www.labvolt.com). The LVDAC-EMS software is a user-friendly tool that facilitates the use of the various
functions which can be implemented with USB peripherals such as the Data Acquisition and Control Interface
(DACI), LabVolt Series 9063, and the Four-Quadrant Dynamometer / Power Supply, LabVolt Series 8960.
The LVDAC-EMS software also includes a firmware update for the DACI. When a DACI is connected to a newer
version of LVDAC-EMS, the user can easily update the module using a simple update wizard.

LVDAC-EMS Functions
The functions that are currently available for the DACI, Model 9063, are described below. All functions can be
activated in any DACI by purchasing a license for that specific function and then performing the upgrade
procedure on the DACI. New functions will be added to this datasheet as they become available.

Instrumentation Functions
The instrumentation functions of LVDAC-EMS replace a multitude of actual data acquisition devices (e.g.,
voltmeters, ammeters, oscilloscopes, synchroscopes) with a series of computer-based instruments that display
the data measured by the DACI.

Features & Benefits

• Monitor and control several workstations from one (or more) supervisory computer(s)
• Use OPC server protocol to communicate between the different workstations
• Include your own pictures and schematics
• Introduce SCADA in existing EMS laboratories
