The ATL's PC-based data acquisition system provides up to 26 channels of simultaneous data acquisition. Custom software designed specifically for the ATL automated the test documentation, data acquisition, analysis, and reporting for results for fast and accurate reporting of data to ATL clients. The software, based on National Instruments Sound Power System, was expanded and custom-tailored for the ATL by Nelson Acoustics.
