Specifies performance characteristics and calibration methods for digital data acquisition systems and relevant software to ensure that all measurement systems relying on DAQ devices meet a common standard. This standard covers: - the minimum specifications that the DAQ device manufacturer must provide to describe the performance of the analogue-to-digital module (ADM) of the DAQ device; - standard test strategies to verify the minimum set of specifications; - the minimum calibration information required by the ADM that is stored on the DAQ device; - the minimum calibration software requirements for external and self-calibration of the ADM of the DAQ device. This standard deals with low frequency signal conversion, e.g. applications such as plant control, vibration measurement, vibro-diagnostics, acoustics, ultrasonic measurements, temperature measurements, pressure measurements, measurement in power electronics, etc.
